Thank you. I gravitate to shows about vetinarians, so I shall enjoy this series about this Vet from the 30's.

Sundays at 10 p.m.?

Check your local PBS station for exact times. Episode 1 on Jan. 10 starts at 9pm my time but it may be different for other areas.

It seems like a new version of the book adaptation with new cast and all. Should be interesting to watch

My husband and I watched it last night and loved the show. The casting of the actors was perfect. We can't wait to see it again next Sunday night.

Yes, it was good. True to the character of the books.

If your local PBS station participates, you can get access to all of the episodes now (and to other shows as well) by donating through a program called PBS Passport. The amount is typically $60 or more. We’ve already streamed the first three episodes of “All Creatures” and are looking forward to the next four which we’ll watch tonight and tomorrow night!

It was very well done. I watched the original several times and actually thought that these actors were equally good, if not better in some respects.

I am recording it, so I can binge watch it. I cannot wait... looks so good. I have wanted to read the books for a long time.. I still may..

When I read the books a long time ago, it felt like I was settling down in the evening with an ice cream cone. Go ahead and read them; it won't ruin the TV series.

Here’s a review on NPR. I wholeheartedly agree with the reviewer. It was lovely.

I do too. The show gives us the human bonds as well as the animal ones, just like the books.
