i need everyone’s recommendations on TV shows to watch whilst I can’t do anything for the next eight weeks. I had a fall last week and completely snapped my ulnar and my radius and broke my wrist I had surgery on it to plate and screw the 2 bones back together and now I’m not allowed to do anything at all for the next 8 weeks I’ve only been home since Friday and I’m already bored. Thank you for any recommendations.

Life on Mars
Ashes to Ashes

My DH and I love ashes to ashes and life on mars the ending still gets me no matter how many times I watch it. I’ve not watched Fraiser in a long time.
