Call the Midwife has been one of my favorite shows for years. But this year I made a discovery. You can watch this show online at pbs.com. No streaming service is needed.

This show is about a group of nuns and nurses who are midwives in a section of London on the 1950s and 60s. I like shows that trying to help me understand what life was like in another place and time. But this is not a family show unless you ready to have that talk about where babies come from. And think about this…babies have been born at home way longer than they have been born in hospitals.

The characters are fun and the storylines can be corny. Sister Monica Joan is my favorite, but I don’t understand crap she say. The last couple of years, they have begun casting people who look like me. Yay! Give it a try.
