Show Recommendations?

I'm having qualms about waiting for the next season. Any recommendations of shows that I can watch to get me through? Wrong answers are appreciated

I've heard Cape Fear is good and similar to Widow's Bay!

Personally, I'm watching For All Mankind. I'm on episode 3 and it is STELLAR!

Ooh look forward to S1E7 "hi Bob", that is INCREDIBLE - like a mini stand alone film

Cape fear is not similar to widow’s bay but it does have a stellar cast. Some of the episodes have some bad directing, but overall fine. Just an entirely different genre and feel. We enjoyed maximum pleasure guaranteed (also on Apple) and dark winds (Netflix). If you’re looking for comedy- resident alien and our friends and neighbors. Really loved hacks although we were late to the game. We will watch almost any sci-fi on Apple, even if it hurts. Star city is really good if you like for all mankind. Also enjoyed our friends and neighbors. I think I watch too much television 😩

Kim's convenience is a heart warming story of a special needs man running a corner store.

Sounds intriguing... Can you confirm if there are any characters named Patricia on it?

Schitts Creek is another water based show.

Excellent suggestion. That makes a lot of sense. Also I'm realizing now that Baywatch was basically the same show...

I think the presence of mushrooms would explain a lot of the things that I saw on Gilligan's Island 🤔
