Hey everyone, I am going to start an on-going new series of critiques on old television shows that I grew up on back in the late sixties and the seventies. The first one is 'Family Affair' starring Brian Keith and Sebastian Cabot who played Mr. Bill Davis and Mr. French. This was the story of a bachelor uncle and his gentlemen's gentleman who was found to take care of his two nieces and a nephew. Many of the situations that being that this program was a situation comedy would cover subjects like how a single 'father' raised children to issues like the one that I just watched dealing with 'latchkey children'.

Birthright
Nora Roberts has written 'Birthright' the story of Callie Dunbrook aka Jessica Cullen a woman who was kidnapped and adopted illegally. Callie is an anthropologist who is the head of an archeological dig in a small town and at the same time learns that she may be the daughter of another woman other than the mother that raised her. Nora Roberts does show and tell her stories and with this one you can see the details of the dig along with all the events that she creates for Callie and all involved. You will feel for Callie, the mothers and fathers, and even Callie's friends.

2006 to 2024: Why Saltburn Shows Nothing Has Changed
Saltburn. I’m sure you’ve seen it. If not, this fictional film is about an unpopular, isolated 20-year-old (or thereabouts) university student who unexpectedly falls in with a popular crowd and is invited to a sprawling country estate called ‘Saltburn’ to spend his summer.

Red Shelves
Death is a black hole. Think about it. A black hole is the corpse of a star, something once warm and bright, now come to the end of its life cycle. But some will argue that the cycle of life does not end with death. That death is merely another path we must walk once our bodies expire and our souls ascend. In that moment, when the fuel in the star’s chemical tank hits empty and the shiny matte coat explodes into supernova, the mass left behind – the corpse – becomes a black hole. We understand that, around such a vast cadaver, dimensions work a little differently in death to the way we’re used to in life. For example, light cannot escape the pull of a black hole when it hits the point of no return. That’s where it gets its colour. Space itself is contorted by a black hole. That’s where it gets its funny shape. Even time. Time slows right down the closer you get to it. The closer you get to a black hole. The closer you get to death.
