Been watching this delightful soap opera series.
1st episode (Pilot) identifies characters as different flowers, zinnias, lily of the valley
2nd episode is "Pests" and the garden club finds a solution to eradicating an invasive
3rd episode (this Sunday) is "Companion Planting."
The Trailer is a STITCH!!

The new series The Goose Pointe Garden Society has its light and dark sides. I like the opening show , but second show the second ok… but it kind of gets slow moving a bit boring in places. I’m hoping the story line will improve. The narration along the way thruout the story which is associated with plant activity compared to the characters in the show is hilarious. I see quite few relatable characters in my experience with local garden societies.

Here’s a narration excerpt throughout one of the episodes. Referencing the new characters introduced in the story line.😉
Every garden has unwanted visitors. Slugs slither on the leaves.
Spider mites are the worst no matter how much u try to get rid of them , they linger on.
Aphids are like the plague by the time you detect them they are out of control.
The most dreaded intruders always seem to do the most damage and they come out at night .
Every gardener agrees the presence of a pest means we’re doing something wrong. Just can’t agree on what to do.. Sometimes infestation takes over and when that happens , everyone agrees it’s best to burn it down.

That is SOOOO irritating!
It is on broadcast, NBC.
No kidding?! All I could find online were streaming outlets, yet here it was on an old school TV network! I set it to record the series. All the schedule shows right now is episode 4, but I'm assuming they will air the last episode of this season, as well as re-running earlier episodes.

There is so little content on DirecTV these days that I'm counting the days until I can unsubscribe, so this is an unexpected surprise. Thanks for the heads up. :)

I have DISH and my DVR enables me to download a program that has already aired (recently), "ON DEMAND", and the download lasts for one month.
DH and I forgot about taping this, so we downloaded episodes#1 and #2. Can you do that?
