Whimsical Spring

Before everything currently green gets shriveled in Texas’ summer heat, which started last week, there’s a sweet spot of cozy spring days. Still cool in the mornings, pleasant through the day, and cool evenings. Bugs haven’t started swarming yet and junebugs don’t crash head-on into your forehead if you’re sitting outside. Mosquitos haven’t started sucking you dry either.

Last spring I finished watching Gilmore Girls. I never watched it when it was in season. It screams cozy fall vibes. Is there something for spring? I’m the type of person who watches shows well after they premiered and ended, so I’m clueless about newer shows.

A family member recommended The Madison and I enjoyed the first episode. I’ve started Downton Abbey twice, but need a less chaotic schedule to chip away at it along with the two episodes I’ve watched of Bridgerton. I need to refrain from multitasking while watching TV.

If Gilmore Girls is the go to series for cozy fall vibes, I think rom-coms fit cozy spring vibes. Perhaps the term I’m looking for spring is whimsical. S. watched Father of the Bride a few weeks ago, perfect for spring. Prom season makes me think of my favorite, Pretty in Pink.

For now I’ll continue with The Madison, although it isn’t whimsical. Any recommendations for a series I likely haven’t watched to fit the season?

  1. I was wracking my brain for series that scream “spring”, but seeing as how we pretty much stick to CBS and PBS in this house, nothing came to mind…except a 1980 movie starring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour called “Somewhere in Time”.

  2. “Mosquitos haven’t started sucking you dry either.” – This is one of the things that I am not looking forward to. I wish I could give you recommendations but I do not really know a lot about TV shows. I hope that you are able to find the perfect spring movies/ TV series to watch!
