Fans of 50s–60s TV might enjoy how many faces they recognize among the guest stars, character actors and bit part players in the various episodes of this show.

Father, I'll Take Care of You (2016) on KOCOWA+

Episode 2

As enchanting as ParkEun-bin is, I have not found interest in this series. Parts feel like a 1980s or 1990s family drama, or soap opera, and by that I mean the staging, lighting, photography, and acting by some of the actors. I cannot imagine sitting through 50 episodes. I removed it from my watch queue.

Funny Woman (2023) on PBS.org

It is at once funny, and at the same time makes me feel very sad for women and men who were raised to be idiots.

I enjoy the series, and there was not a song that played that I did not enjoy.

Stuff I can relate to, in a very narrow spotlight.
Astrid's issues with buying presents was one I could relate to.
Her solution to buying a gift was one I could relation to.
The reaction from others, when her present is revealed, was something I could relate to.

Now that I've gotten some of the I can relate to items out of the way, I enjoy the way Astrid and Raphaëlle work together and interact. They are both on a journey, of sorts, learning to interact with someone who is quite different from herself. The way Raphaëlle interacts with Astrid has changed, while Raphaëlle's co-workers, for the most part, has not. I suspect that will evolve. Astrid has evolved, and one moment is when the give Raphaëlle a thimble for her birthday. No spoilers, but I found it quit touching, but only after Astrid explained it to Raphaëlle.

One more thing I could relate to.
The thimble is a birthday present for Raphaëlle. We find out it is Astrid's birthday as well. Raphaëlle is amazed. Astrid points out how many people are born on any particular day, thus all sharing the same birthday. I imagined everyone realizes this, but the show suggests they do not. Well, that is until a show like this points it out.

(The tapping of her finger on her own leg, was something I could relate to.)

Yes to everything you said about Astrid +

The records repository Astrid works in LOOKS LIKE HEAVEN to me!

Astrid

Just finished season 1, where Astrid's co-workers, who make fun of her in episode 1 learn how exceptional she is when they over hear the coroner expressing his gratitude for her brilliant observations, knowledge, and deduction. The police also begin to trust her judgement.

Then, Astrid is forced into a situation where she asks her self, what would Raphaëlle do? It was funny, because she faced this before, and both times the first thing she imagines Raphaëlle doing is angerly belting out a string of colorful curse words. Then Raphaëlle would calm down and approach the problem in a more controlled manner. I'll give you a clue how difficult this is for Astrid in the situation she finds herself in. She is zipped tied to a chair, and a killer keeps touching her. She is not in control, and he has a knife. Similarly, Raphaëlle is placed in a situation without Astrid's help. Astrid has been abducted. Raphaëlle realizes she must look at the situation differently, as Astrid would, like a puzzle, to save her friend. They are both succeed. They have become good friends.

Not mentioned before, Astrid belongs to a support group of people on the spectrum. They are all quite different, not force into a template of what one things ASD is. I also liked that idiosyncrasies the ASD characters show are not overtly pointed out. They are just there, and the creators of the show relies on the audiences' observation to notice and accept it. For instance, the gentleman that moderates the support group has an interesting "quirk" with his walk. He will walk along, and then briefly stop, move the the left or right, and then continue. It reminded me of someone avoiding cracks in the sidewalk, but I do not think that is what he is doing, and it is not explained. He just does it. We see it. It is normal. So the audience is not treated like an imbecile as American television often does with exposition. The audience is part of the journey of discovery.

I hope I have not spoiled anything. I may have.

Finally, my comments for episodes 4-6 are filled with wrong words and misspellings. This is typical of me. I generally try to find them and correct them. I think it too late to corrected them. It bugs me though because it makes it more difficult to understand what I'm trying to say. Such is life.
