If anyone else is having a hard day emotionally, the blizzard episode of Arthur is on PBS right now and it is as wonderful and comforting as you remember.

TV moments that have made me cry in real life, actual liquid tears in my eyes and/or falling down my face, this year so far (excluding moments that ALWAYS make me cry from shows i’d watched before 2019):

When James shows up to take Erin to the ‘50s prom after she gets stood up

The juxtaposition of the happy, innocent kids at the talent show and the adults watching the news report of the latest deadly bombing at the end of S1 of Derry Girls

"What’s he sayin’?” “I! AM! A DERRY GIRL!”

All of the Derry girls starting to wear rainbow lapel pins to support Clare

“I’m trying to come out to you” “Well, don’t! Go back in!” (That was more of a Deeply Sad cry)

When Scoutmaster Pat gets to see his baby grandson Pat (“He has my legs!”)

Robin explaining why he loves the moonah (“It’s the only thing that’s been here as long as you have, eh?”)

Mr. Kim realizing that Kimchee’s roommate is Jung and pausing to look at the photos of Jung with Janet over the years since they stopped speaking

The pudding conversation in the hospital in Kim’s Convenience

Mr. Kim singing along from outside the door during the talent show

Mr. Ratburn’s wedding

The Rosa Parks episode of DW13

The Pakistan episode of DW13

Patrick’s proposal to David and FIVE RINGS :’‘‘c

Johnny Rose standing up for Roland and Jocelyn at the fancy restaurant

Stevie’s reaction to Johnny Rose in the hospital :(

“The Rosebud Motel” name-change :(

Moira trying to bond with Stevie and complimenting her and genuinely meaning it

Johnny Rose protecting Stevie when they realized she was being dumped

Will destroying Fort Byers (and, in the same vein, “It’s not my fault you don’t like girls”)

The letter at the end of S3 of Stranger Things, even though I hated Hopper this season

Alexei’s death :( He just wanted his Woody Woodpecker toy and the games weren’t fixed :( The kids were so excited when he won :( “You can do it, mister!” :(

Veronica self-sabotaging any chance of friendship with Nicole

Whenever it’s blizzarding out, I want to just drink tea and watch Arthur.
