Bingeable in a pandemic: Television you want to be stuck inside for

Bingeable in a pandemic: Television you want to be stuck inside for

Author: Photo provided by Prayitno

I have received recommendations on biopics, long-form dramas, and teen romance shows to pass the time as I waste away my days during the phases of the Covid pandemic. It was during one of these endless days, that I realized there was programming designed perfectly for a pandemic, before we even knew it.

Hell’s Kitchen, with nine seasons available to stream on Hulu, is exactly the kind of pandemic programming we all need. Gordon Ramsey and ten chefs from around the world function as if they have to cook under dystopian pandemic conditions every night.

Episode one of the tenth season has everything our cooped-up families have been looking for.

The chefs live in extremely close quarters with one another, while sweating as much as they can into each other’s food and clothes. Similar to the thousands of Americans who spontaneously started making bread out of pandemic boredom, these contestants cook until they can no longer.

This show has all of the things you miss hating the most about being less than six feet away from someone. Plus, we all get to learn how to make the perfect seared scallops and beef wellington.

Hell’s Kitchen seasons 1, 10-18 are featured on Hulu.

Comment author: EvaComment text: Grandpa, I find myself wondering about you every so often. I see glimpses of your face in the years worn onto my dad. It makes me feel more connected to you in some way. I remember the familiar kindness from you that I know in my dad. I would’ve really liked to have a good conversation. I only have a handful of memories with you, but you were loving, and you were kind. I wish I was able to say more. If I am someone to you, I hope I make you proud. Thank you Aunt for this sweet post.Comment publication date: 3/27/26, 12:11 AMComment source: Obituary -- Randolph Floris Banovich C Comment author: RBCComment text: The Navy should reimburse the market cost of replacing the grazing land they are taking.

I am Kelly’s sister, Charlene B Johnson and his daughter is Trisha Benjamin. The Fallon Tribal Police acted unconscionably by not notifying the family first. This is devastating for us especially after speaking a little bit with the officer handling the report and The Chief Juarez. Who refused to give me any further details or to at least let me know the FBI was notified and that they were investigating if my brothers death was foul play or not. My understanding is the FBI is called when a body is found. Tribal Chairwoman please do the family a solid and make sure the finding of my brother was due to suspicious circumstances.Comment publication date: 3/24/26, 1:55 PMComment source: Fallon Paiute-Shoshone Tribe Reports Death Under InvestigationComment author: Nicole GalbraithComment text: Farren - I just saw that you aren’t here with us. I am completely in shock! I met you and hung out with you so many years ago with Jer, and Eden. I honestly can’t believe you are gone…..you were a wonderful human being, with a HUGE heart and soul. Hearing this makes my heart break! You are forever in our hearts, and I can say I feel blessed that I was able to know you!
