Yea, I wondered about that one, too. It would have been really easy to just bring in an older woman to play the part.

My brother loves Alaska, goes there every summer for a couple weeks, is trying to talk his permanent girlfriend into moving there when he retires. I think the sales pitch involves spending the winters in Louisiana where she is from.There‘s one old show I never get to watch and dearly want back: Northern Exposure. It’s never on anything. From what I’ve read, there’s a music rights issue, which sucks but WKRP (another great show) had similar issues and I’ve seen that on Hulu a number of times. They replace the good songs with generic shit but I’d rather suffer that than never see the show again.
That show inspired my 26 YO self to spend a summer in Alaska. I worked at a fish cannery in Egegik. Back in 1996, it was not a nice place. No police, medical facilities, and a lot of other things. I did not have the Northern Exposure experience I hoped for
But it was an awesome summer nonetheless. We had trash bags over the windows because the sun barely left. It snowed at sea level in July. I showered several times over 3 months. I met some amazing people and some very scary ones. I kept in touch with some for 5 years or so after leaving but no longer unfortunately. I only have a few photos from a disposable camera to show for it.
Not certain if my facts are straight with why that show never streams but it’d certainly earn a whole new fan base if it ever does.

It’s on my to watch list. I was reminded maybe incorrectly of Preacher (AMC).We are really digging on Midnight Mass on Netflix, it’s a horror series by Mike Flanagan who made Haunting of Hill House / Bly House, and has done a few a few movies based on Stephen King material. Quite of a few of Flanagan's recurring collaborators, some common themes from his other shows, and certainly some very King-esque themes as well.
RT Critics Consensus (94%):
An ambitious meditation on grief and faith that is as gorgeous as it is unsettling, Midnight Mass's slow boil is a triumph of terror that will leave viewers shaking - and thinking - long after the credits roll.

The arrival of a charismatic young priest brings glorious miracles, ominous mysteries and renewed religious fervor to a dying town desperate to believe.
I read the graphic novels - is this on Hulu? Maybe I should try the Disney bundle for a couple months, at least during hockey season.
Yep. Hulu original series based on the graphic novels. I never read them, but it has a graphic novel feel.
