While we in no way mean to suggest that people refrain from cheering for their favorite team, watching the latest superhero movie, or binge watching whatever British drama is currently all the rage, the following resources are provided if they can be a help to priests in encouraging their flock to also consume wholesome Catholic programming.
Resources
