>>>   1:21p  "I Ship It"
This started online in 2016, which I haven't watched.  This is the 1st episode of the 2nd season.
Ella and Tim are neighbors, best friends, and co-workers at a boutique shipping agency.
Ella is obsessed with a show, and, she's also an aspiring writer, so she posts fan fiction.
One day, she gets an opportunity to make a delivery to the set of the show.
Her life is portrayed in a musical.

After, I found ten 10-min episodes online.  It's the same characters, but they're in a
different situation.  Ella got fired from a music magazine writer job, but, in the new
series, she has the same boss at the new job.

I first tried to watch it on laptop but it said my wifi connection wasn't strong enough for uninterrupted video.  I don't know if that means i wasn't going to try.  It kept spinning, but nothing was happening, so I switched to my tablet and it's working there -- using the same wi-fi connection.
~~  I always find it difficult to watch on my tablet, even though, being close to my face, the screen is essentially the size of my TV.  It seems that simply because it doesn't work like TiVo, that it's more difficult to focus.
~~  I watched the first 30-min ep twice (something I rarely do), because I wasn't sure if I understood.
