You’re still you but you have to live in a fictional tv show, which one and why?

Casualty!

I always fancied being a doctor.

Gray's Anatomy.

Over almost 20 series I believe, I've become invested in all the characters and their lives. I love Meredith I'd want to be her friend.

Also set in my fav place in the world - Seattle - so living there would be a joy.

Sad I'd have missed my chance with McDreamy though.

Seinfeld

Sopranos

I'd be some random Italian cousin or something

Emmerdale. Everyone knows everyone and helps each other out so you'd never be lonely. Lots of countryside, a corner shop, pub, cafe and B&B but the fictional town of Hotten with its shops and nightclubs is just a bus ride away.

I did consider Corrie but that's less green and more yards and ginnells (sp?) where nefarious acts are carried out!

Star Trek

Neighbours ❤️

Death in Paradise.

The weather and scenery will make the murder risk worth it!

theconfidenceofwho · 27/01/2024 20:03

Grey's Anatomy for me too or Big Little Lies if I could have one of their beachfront houses!

Some people are forgoing the 'you'd still be you' part.

Absolutely fabulous!

The Detectorists

This or possibly Father Brown although there are quite a lot of murders. I love the aesthetic.

Stormysundaymorning · 27/01/2024 20:05

Midsummer murders. I want a little cottage. Don't want to be murdered though. I'll stay home

The Golden Girls

aperolspritzbasicbitch · 27/01/2024 20:06

Eastenders. Quite fancy having such a convenient local.

Plus, as I'm still me I won't be directly involved in any of the drama, so can peacefully sip my drink/browse the trashy clothes on the market/order my chicken from McClunkeys whilst keeping half an ear out for all the gossip.

I like your thinking.

Definitely somewhere beautiful and hot.
Maybe Montelbano.
The food always looks amazing

WinterLobelia · 27/01/2024 20:09

Downton Abbey. I'd be a well-heeled cousin.

(I've spent way too much time thinking about it actually. )
