Just spent $$ buying BBC type tv series for my parents and I to watch. I'm so

excited. Doc Martin, Brideshead Revisited, Yes Minister, A BBC History of Scotland, the Duchess of Duke Street. We are going to have fun this spring. What do you do for fun with your parents?

I have done pretty well, I even bought a subscription to HBO and Showtime so he could enjoy the series they offer.

Just some of them: The Sopranos, Deadwood, Dexter, Weeds, Boardwalk Empire, Game of Thrones, Californication and Luck.

Buying a series after it has shown is the best because you don't have to wait a week to find out what happens next.

Our parents are no longer with us, but it is wonderful that you are finding ways to keep yours happy.

My parents are both long gone, and it is wonderful that you have a shared interest like that.
