why now? is it becuase Joel is Jewish?


after years and years of NO streaming with very little interest. is it becuase the show heavily leans on the fact that Joel is jewish?

i learned a lot of jewish things from watching this show. I learned about yom kippur from watching this among other interesting jewish traditions.

I don't care why so much as I appreciate that it's finally streaming. It's a fun show

I was in college when Northern Exposure first aired.
It is a special show. Unique.
I remember learning bits of wisdom from Marilyn Whirlwind (Maybe), Maurice Minniefield (the clock episode), Holling Vincoeur (his take on hunting) and Chris Stevens (the election episode).
I am happy to see it streaming. I have wondered why it, and many other shows were not available anywhere.

You can speculate all you want about secret cabals and shadow governments.

i wonder if thats a common trait among us fans, the search for wisdom. beleive it or not i gleaned some wisdom from the episodes of Joel finding his spirituality. "Up River" and "The Quest" are a couple of memorable episodes for me.
