3. can you say more?

[xfundy]

8. Yes. more.

It touches on fundamentalist baptists in Texas, a drag queen who channels a country music star, hypocrisy, smoking cessation, and so much more. Olivia Newton John, Beau Bridges, Delta Burke and more. It's the movie, not the series, and it's wonderful. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

4. The movie or the TV show?

Google tells me there's both a movie and a TV show by that name.

[xfundy]

11. the movie.

There was a short-lived series which was excellent but this is just a ton of fun in one package.

5. Is it a type of soap opera?

I do have Netflix but have not heard of this. I am looking forward to the Kyle chandler series out soon.

6. Yeah. Tell us more!

The Underwoods are icky. Hope it's not like that.

7. lol.. I think they're "icky" too.. I watched all the seasons up until the last one and I can't

finish it.. it got boring.

Frank Underwood champion of JOBS at the expense of FEMA and Medicare And Social Security.. which he insists on raving on about "entitlements!11" Damn straight we're entitled.

9. You have to see it.

But I promise it's not icky, just a lot of fun.

14. It's a comedy by Del Shores based on his play of the same name, Del also wrote 'Daddy's Dyin' Whose

Got the Will' which also was made into a film in 1990. It's lighthearted and filled with eccentric characters well played by a terrific cast. I highly recommend, and it's not icky.

13. It made me realize just how far south MO is

I ran into most of those characters at some point during my childhood. It's extremely well acted.
