“We have to save the world and this country from this economic situation that will kill more people in the long run. I prefer to see everyone go back to work. If some of us have to sacrifice ourselves to that, that’s fine.”

Like everything today, it’s a clock. to see in the months ahead, but we remain cautiously optimistic that with the right enhancements and safety measures in place, we might be able to watch shows this year.
