TV Series
As the lockdown started in April and, my restaurant sadly closed its door, I had some time off to catch up with a few tv series I had left behind.
My husband and I love watching tv series, we almost consider it as a hobby, the last tv show we watched it’s called ‘Golden Girls’.
The tv-show is set in the ’80s beginning of the ’90s, even though they use a nonlinear narrative the way they tackle difficult topics is admirable. I rather watch tv series in the original language than dubbed, if the actors’ accents it’s very different than the one I’m used to, I turn on the English subtitles.
I’m watching Tv series in English daily, while I’m eating or after dinner to relax.
A nice glass of red wine and a good tv show are the best way to decompress after a stressful day at work.

Oh it’s such a pity, so many places closing down. It’s heartbreaking actually.
I was a big fan of Golden Girls – I used to watch it every Friday night with my mum and dad when I was little. It’s actually pretty current given how long ago it was made. (And I couldn’t agree more, a good glass of wine and a TV show is a great way to unwind!)
Some rich vocab and structures used here (in green) – great 👍
Some notes:
>’closed its doorS‘ – this expression need the plural
> the last (indicates past time) —- we should use the past simple to conclude the phrase e.g. the last film I saw was ….
(note, we don’t need to repeat the pronoun ‘it’ like we do in Italian. Same thing with if the actor’s accents it’s … – we don’t need to use ‘it’)
>’Rather‘ needs the modal verb ‘would‘ to state a preference > I’d rather watch TV ….. or you can use I prefer watching TV ….
👍 great work @luke
