I guess I'm ashore? Never heard of it but I have an answer that fits, I'm going to hope it's right and go on with my life.

Edit: Wrong shore, drifted away and lost again at sea.

Huh. On shore! Page 2 again--that's twice in ages. Miss Isaac, though.

Have a great weekend, Muggles.

G&T me.

I never heard of it either, but then I've been drinking to forget.

For nudges, feel free to PM me. I won't have a clue how to help you, but you might shove me ashore.

On the beach. Just not very fast today. The cabana boy wants to know why none of the trees near the beach change colors in the fall. An orange palm tree would be marvelous.

After a very rough stretch, finally back on shore. I think I sent Isaac's kids to college the last few weeks.

I think I'll have a Kir. Santé!

I think I have it. Could I run my answer by anyone who's 100% confident?

Edit: Confirmed lost at sea

Edit 2: a HA!

Haha -- well, you did now! I see the obvious letters, but TV shows are not in my wheelhouse.
Edit: I'd heard of exactly two of the shows in the grid.
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

Hmmm. I feel like I might be ashore but I'm not entirely confident. Would somebody who is confident in their answer mind messaging me so I can tell them what I think it is and we can compare some notes?
