Mr Red Does Folk Music Make Your Miserable? (48) RE: Does Folk Music Make Your Miserable? 06 Jan 17


Does wallowing in the misery and misfortunes of fictional characters make you miserable?
If so that would make half of TV depressing, and the other half frippery. Oh dear that may be true!

Nah! We wallow in blood and guts vicariously as a release from the humdrum and the difficult*, it makes our lives feel safer and happier as a result. Folk is just the TV of yesteryear.


* it got me through the divorce years. And I am still paying back.
