One of the great things about being a hardcore baseball fan is that I know what I’m going to be watching most nights from April through October. Then, come November, the ‘What am I going to watch now?’ panic sets in.

So far this offseason, I’ve kept myself fairly entertained with Apple TV’s Martin Scorsese documentary and sci-fi-ish series “Pluribus,” the HBO series “I Love L.A.” and “The Chair Company,” and some new movies I’ve really enjoyed, like “One Battle After Another,” “The Baltimorons,” and “Train Dreams.” 

As I was laughing my way through Netflix’s unintentionally hilarious new “thriller” series “His & Hers” after Sunday’s Eagles playoff loss (more on that below) I realized I was starting to get desperate. Desperate enough to watch a new reality show where six outsiders ditch the comforts of modern life to live in an Amish community in Lancaster County? Maybe.

TLC’s “Suddenly Amish” premieres Tuesday at 10 p.m. The series follows a California content creator, a luxury-loving rapper from Missouri, a newly divorced father from Texas, and others who will give up technology, electricity, and indoor toilets, and embrace a more structured lifestyle.

Sticking with TV and films for a moment, we’re going with a QOTW we’ve dropped a couple of times in the past, because I always love hearing about what other people are watching and enjoying. I’ll take viewer word of mouth recommendations over critical consensus any day.  

We’d like to know: What’s the best movie and/or TV show you’ve seen recently?

I shared some of my favorites above. Now, I want to hear about yours. Respond below and please let us know where you live!

In a state as old as Pennsylvania, with its diversity of rural and urban landscapes, it’s no wonder that some places can at times seem downright magical and mysterious.

Seriously, what’s with that roof designed like a Ouija board at the Grand Midway Hotel in Windber? How do the rocks sing like that at Ringing Rocks Park in Bucks County? And how about the labyrinth at the Lake Erie Arboretum at Frontier Park?

Our food and travel writer Kalena Thomhave is highlighting these and other Pennsylvania landmarks with a story to tell.

• As the fate of a possible extension to Affordable Care Act subsidies rests with the Senate in Washington, at least 70,000 Pennsylvania residents have left the state’s health insurance exchange following sharp increases in monthly premiums due to those expiring federal subsidies. Find out the latest in this story.

• A bill aimed at averting another government shutdown this month would divert $500 million earmarked for cleaning up abandoned coal mines, and experts say Pennsylvania, with the most abandoned coal sites in the nation, would likely be hardest hit by cuts. We have the details here.

• In one Lebanon County school district, residents are raising concerns after school board members recently said they would reject a popular French class reader based on what they believe to be inappropriate cultural topics and influences in the book. Get the story here.

• Following a monthslong investigation, a Lancaster County man was arrested last week, accused of stealing about 100 sets of human remains from a cemetery on the outskirts of Philadelphia. Learn more about the case here.

Any hopes for a battle of the Keystone state in this year’s Super Bowl were dashed Sunday after the defending champion Eagles were upset at home by the San Francisco 49ers in the Wildcard round of the NFC playoffs.

Much like the regular season, the Eagles never found any consistent offensive success. Lehigh Valley native Saquon Barkley had only 35 yards rushing in the second half. The Eagles were just 2 of 9 on third downs in the second half. The biggest blow: The Eagles scored only six points in the second half.

“It’s been a common theme for us this year,” Barkley said. “We haven’t done a good enough job of playing complete football. Putting two halves together. Sometimes you expect you’ll get to this moment, and you’ll figure it out.”
