Shrink is one of the best series about being human, and in only eight episodes it takes the viewer from humour to empathy to clarity.
That said, it took me seversl months to watch the series, but only because a: each episode deserves introspection and consideration and b: I do not watch TV very often, and certainly not episodic TV. Fortunately NBC streamed it in its entirety up to the day I concluded the show in 2019.
The writing is pithy, the acting flawless, the direction invisible, and the empathy embracing.
For me Shrink offers genuine catharsis in each episode, and in the eighth episode, the meaning of life: being human
Peace in

Did you see Harrison Ford in this movie?
Oh he is not in the credits, however...
I believe that most extras and some "under-fives", meaning actors are just background or who have under five lines, rarely get credit on-screen.
Look about 15 to 17 minutes into the movie.
Check out the lifeguard giving mouth to mouth to the drowned child.
All you see is a profile for just a second or so.
Looks like Harrison Ford, huh?
Cover Me Babe is a good mirror of how "deep" and pretentious many "creative" young people were in the late sixties, early 70's in America. (I was one of them and oh boy does it smart to see myself so well limned on-screen.)
Also, great to see so many (now) well-known actors knocking out those lines with such flat lighting and coming off with less than star-quality. Reember Deniro in his b-movie, and how much better an actor he "became" with a great cameraman? Same here.
