Well I've been considering whether to watch this for a while. Surprise, while I was procrastinating they produced 4 seasons! I knew that Jane Fonda and Lilly Tomlin starred in the show, didn't know that Sam Waterston and Martin Sheen were also cast. I've just finished S1 E1, interesting and mildly amusing, so far. Good to see a bunch of rich liberal old er folks still working. ![]() |

I started watching a while back, first season was the best, two was still enjoyable, but, three and four were just okay. Four was especially less engaging, but, the cliffhanger left me wanting to see what's in store. I actually find the children most entertaining.

...just finished S1 S7. Had to laugh at some funny lines, and some of the awkwardness of situations the characters find themselves in.
I'm sure glad I was 40 when I got divorced, being 70 just looks like it would be more intense.

I just finished S2 E10 & E11. Grace(Jane Fonda) and Phil(Sam Elliott) spend the night together. Grace ends up meeting Phil's wife, who has Alzheimer's. Grace breaks up with Phil. Sol and Robert are insane, but they get back together. Frankie is...just Frankie.
All these people are crazy, makes me appreciate my somewhat mundane but blissfully quiet existence. Thank you Lord, amen.

Yes, they sure are. Sometimes to the point of annoyance, sometimes to point of high hilarity. As I've said, I mostly find they're off spring, the kiddies, more fun to watch, though they are as crazy.   |

Still watching Grace & Frankie, just finished S4 E1. Season 5 will be available January 18th, so as I watch 2 episodes per day while exercising on the elliptical I'll have a 10 day hiatus from G & F to check out another series, maybe start Nurse Jackie.

I love the show. I'm a fan of both those women too. I hope it goes on forever. It's refreshing and encouraging to see women around my age playing women around my age. lol. I tune in to see them, not their children. There's enough of them on other shows.

I do like to see the whole host of senior actors who are still makin' it happen. Actually, I like to see seniors in general who are still makin' it happen. If you like Grace & Frankie you might also like The Kominsky Method, also on Netflix. |

Finished the last Grace & Frankie(S4, E13). I enjoyed following this group of crazy & neurotic people. Season 5 available in a week and a half, filling in with random Netflix shows. Just watched a episode of Jerry Just Seinfeld's Comedians in Cars getting coffee, with Ellen DeGeneres. |

We're planning on traveling next weekend, being on the road all day the 18th. May have to cancel the trip! Don't know if we can wait until we return home to watch Season 5!!! |

I finished season 5, I'll miss the daily dose of insanity, hope season 6 will be produced. Started watching Always a Witch(Siempre Bruja), a Spanish language show but with sufficient English subtitling. 10 episodes. Interesting, about a 17th Century slave girl:

Well I'm watching Grace and Frankie a second time around, maybe won't binge all of it, but I had to take a break from Black Summer, an apocalypse-zombie series.
