Minny9,
It will be 10 years this week since my husband died and I still find some comfort in watching shows about widows and widowers. I guess part of it is seeing how the experience is portrayed and whether or not I can relate. Sometimes I watch and think they are so far off of depicting reality and other times it really resonates with me. I too watch the Unicorn. When it first came out I watched it hoping for comfort and something to relate to. There are a few things that come up on that show that I can relate to but not many. I am now watching Dead to Me on Netflix. While it is pretty far fetched in most areas, there are some things that I can relate to and find funny. Probably more so in the fact that she gets angry at her husband after he's dead when she finds out he had been cheating and how she zones out sometimes when she is stuck in a memory, which I think I still do on occasion. And I have probably watched every Hallmark movie out there and like to think that there is a happy ending like that for everyone!
There were others I've watched over the years but can't think of them at the moment!
