No, she passed to Rainbow Bridge several years ago.
The landlord, who took over shortly before, doesn't allow pets so she was
the last one.

I'm sure you will find a lot of shows you would like.
The OTRR library has the sound, certified series, in order, etc.

I've seen a few new shows, (post 2000) but they seem to use to many
special effects and whiz bang graphics for me. Same with movies.

Ah, the good old days. :)

I am often able to follow a program with just the sound. I can imagine
the character driving somewhere, for example, without watching him drive
somewhere. That was developed listening to OTR.
Sometimes programs are just radio with pictures. :)
Now watching a detective/mystery show video is important when revealing a
unspoken clue for example.
People are constantly amazed I don't even own a tv set.

Nope, only free ones.
