Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix

[ChuckRamone]

The Ripper. Crazy the dude died this year of Covid. That's not a spoiler BTW because it's not in the documentary. If you don't already know who he is, I recommend finding out the through the show. I had never heard of him and it was an interesting story.

[brycickle]

Also not a spoiler, because it was reported by the worldwide media.

Ted Lasso is hitting me in the feels right now.

Agreed.

Saiki K. on Netflix is hilarious, fast-paced comedy.

got sucked in to Derry Girls and was bummed that the two seasons went by so quick--i think i miss about half of what they say, so i watch it with subtitles.

i'm not comparing the times and places, but still, it feels like the stories of a group of teenage girls just trying to be teenage girls during the "Troubles" in Northern Ireland might have some value to young folks in the good Ol' US of A currently.

i dig all of the characters, but the head nun (Sister Michael) at their school is fucking hilarious at times

The most recent season of Great British Bake Off Holiday Edition (forget the exact title) has an ep with the cast in competition that’s pretty damn charming

If you like this shoe, Moone Boy on Hulu should be watched.  Remember when you do that JoJo Rabbit came out many many years after.

On the teenage girl tip....chewing gum is super funny and I liked pen15 too...

The show I recently binge watched and felt bad it was over was 'this country'....

If you liked chewing gum, please check out Michaela Coel’s newer show “I May Destroy You”.  It’s a heavy subject matter but one of the better shows from last year. 

For 30 Rock fans:  Mr Mayor (by Tina Fey/Robert Carlock) just started and the Saved by the Bell revival is written/staffed with 30 Rock writers.  I cared nothing for the original, but im a few eps in to the new one and I’m super on board with it.

hey Atiba, i watched that Bake Off episode and loved it, thanks...definitely all feel good (i'll take it where i can get it these days) and "charming" is a perfect way to put it. i came across this weirdness when i was first looking for a way to watch it:

of course, leave it to Sister Michael to make me laugh the most...when she was trying to introduce that last cake she tried making and couldn't stop laughing at how "weird" it ended up looking...great stuff...

Not Netflix,  but any of you watched watching "Your honour",   
have not watched a series that I liked in a while this looks interesting

There are parts that work for me but the big flaw is the son character.   A lot of dramas try and do the vehicular manslaughter storyline in the 2nd or 3rd season (ray donovan, homeland) because they’ve run out of things for the protagonists’ kids to do, as if anyone gives a shit about them.   So if you can stomach that and the obnoxious self-sabotage that comes from the act.  The other part of the story is interesting in a pulpy way.  The justification for why he helps his son cover it up sold me initially.  I’m at ep 6 now and still between whether I like and and whether I’m seeing it through because it’s a mini-series.

Cheers,  the son was annoying from the get go .. on episode 3 and not sold...
The storyline seems sloppy,  not sure if this is intenional.. 

The worried father scenes are a bore and I don't get this crime family..
 anyway I'll probably watch finish it coz I'm a sucker...

That’s how I feel.  It’s a pandemic and I’m still on the furlough so I’m not as picky.  Tons of good shit starts up 1/15 though.

I watched „weapon of choice“ a documentary on GLOCK the other night. Really liked it.

999 is pretty good.

If you mixed the breaking bad kid with Casey Affleck you may end up with a GG Allin clone

The Night Stalker netflix series that just came out is surprisingly good
A lot of stuff I'd never heard before about Richard Ramirez

Just watched Den of Thieves tonight and thought it was entertaining. Anyone else notice how the one dude who was one of the bad guys had a Thrasher shirt on, then an Independent shirt, then a McGills Skateshop shirt, and then a Skeleton Key hat? Quite a lot of skate references from one actor in a movie.
