Movies/TV shows that don't suck on Netflix

[brycickle]

The Lucas device is pretty ubiquitous now, both pre-hospital and in the ED. They came out in the early 2000's, but have really picked up in popularity over the last 10-15 years. I think the initial intent was to improve CPR in the back of an ambulance, but now that most agencies (hopefully) aren't transporting coding patients, it's more of a way to free up pair of hands that can do other tasks.

I guess my only context is in medical shows and I haven’t really seen them until this point, but it totally makes sense and seems like such a no brainer invention.    Thanks for the name and info on it!

Finally got around to fallout... pretty good. a little embarrassed i know a lot of the lore already. Even started a fallout 3 replay.

Kinda want to go back and see how many scrub changes the kid on The Pitt with the a-cup bags under his eyes has gone through in one day

Also,I swear the kid who visits the waiting room is the son of Kid from kid n play.  Looks identical

[j....soy.....]

I think it’s interesting they structured the show as being one day in their shift.   Also, my old ass remembers the first ep of ER when Noah Wyle was the young, fresh faced doctor.   



If you want a funny medical show, St Denis isn’t the best thing around but I liked Superstore and American Auto a lot, so I have plenty of good will towards it.

It’s older, but I think ‘getting on’ is a better version of St. Denis…

Hah yeah I recommended that too earlier.   Both the UK and US (Maybe US more)

[RoaryMcTwang]

Severance is back and still fantastic

[JoseCansnake0]

I'm absolutely hooked on this show. I have so many questions, but will continue to be excited for every Thursday night until I find out what exactly Lumon is

Just finisher the first season, show is great, thanks pals. Patricia Arquette's performance is next level skin-crawling, so good.

[Abyss1]

Im close to canceling my netflix, since there are probably 1-2 shows or movies that I actually end up enjoying.

6888 was dope

OJ trial things was good for the fact that there were details about the case and people I never knew.

Cobra Kai is actually a guilty pleasure, its cheesy but I dig the Gen X becoming a boomer themes from Danial-san and Johnny

I got around to watching what if on disney + and kinda have mixed opinions...It got kinda bad and I couldn't finish the last episode on season 3, just turned it off halfway.

That show Paradise on Hulu was good for episode 1 but fell off a cliff after episode 2 for me.

Anything on Prime?  been avoiding this because of the ads

Prime has WKUK and Downton Abbey (a show that’s one of my guilty pleasures) and they’ve recently added Heat, Anomalisa, LA Confidential, Die Hard, Evil Dead 2, Do The Right Thing, and Unforgiven.
Before you cancel Netflix you might want to check out Mindhunter by David Fincher and The Last Dance documentary series about the Chicago Bulls dynasty. I think that both are incredible.


Common Side Effects premiered on Adult Swim recently and it’s been pretty good so far. Is anyone else watching it? The tone of the show feels a bit off at times- but I kind of like that. Beavis and Butthead had similar tone at first too. At least to me. Joe Bennett is one of my favorite animators and I’m psyched that the show has his aesthetic as well as Mike Judge’s. They both tend to create these great warts and all eccentric characters that feel familiar and archetypal in a sort of mall parking lot kind of way.

I watched Mindhunter, 1st season was really good.  Saw Last Dance during pandemic too...sucked to realize how disrespected Scottie Pippen was

oh..i forgot that Invincible is back on Prime when you brought up adult animations...will check common side effects out

I’m digging Common Side Effects a lot.   It’s playing things a little more straight which I like a lot.   


Anyone watching Eastern Gate on Max.   It’s like spy tv through the lens of Polish/Russua tensions vis a vis Ukraine War

[Sleazy]

They added Judge Dredd (2014) to Max and watched it with the family last night. Criminally underrated IMHO. Not as good as The Raid but pretty close. If you haven't seen The Raid, go watch it.

[skateboardnorth]

Anyone watching "From"? 

[funeral_tuxedo]

Flow (Strong contender for Best Animated and just announced Criterion addition) is streaming on MAX

I’m psyched. I’m going to watch this tonight.

[matt_2993]

I've been curious to watch this.  I think it was a review of Lost Highway where a dude referenced this being a wtf watch

[Jehoshaphat Augustus]

Netflix is trying to do some flags of our fathers stuff, getting testimonies from some of the Somali militia and civilians who were on the other side during the battle of Mogadishu in '93.

As expected, they barely even mention the incident one month prior where a US Cobra helicopter riddled a house full of respected clan leaders with missiles and cannon fire during an agreed meeting time; fully doing that Team America World Police . It's mentioned in 1 single sentence, all casual, omitting that part about 4 western journalists investigating what happened there (that day) were publicly beat to death by angry mobs (on that same day.) 

its still good stuff if you like His_Story i mean history, all I remember was the news showing the starving Somali kids and its entertaining to have another piece of the puzzle. 

[Mean salto]

^never even heard of skateroo that's crazy.


New white lotus seems decent enough. At least on par with previous seasons so far (altho I guess if you're not in the mood it could just seem like more of the same shit)

Apparently it was pre-social media…which I guess is early 00s


I enjoy White Lotus but it is like reading the first chapters of a book.   Just a heap of set up, not typical episodic structure so I can’t really gauge whether it’s worth it or not.   Just basically want bad things to happen to Schwarzenegger’s son

Ha it def does stuff I would hate if other shows did it. Like I saw a trailer for new handmaids tale and I was critical of that show for just doing the same shit over and over and making overly obvious assholes that only exist for the audience to hate.
I guess the mystery element of the opening is enough to keep me watching at least so far.

[matt_2993]

Fucking love White Lotus and the new season is absolutely hitting the spot for me

I got way too pumped to Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite back for a third season of White Lotus

It’s nice to start the weekend with Severance and end it with White Lotus.

Well said.

[GnarAlarm]

The Castlevania series is really good if you're into that kind of thing.

[RoaryMcTwang]

Been watching Mr Inbetween way more than I should. So so good.

[Painted Baby]

Well if you didn’t get enough of the sitcom on NBC about the Celtics owner’s marriage, thankfully Netflix has a show coming up about the Lakers’s owner dating life

Nope we already have Winning Time at home

I'm kicking myself for not binging it when i had Hulu... now I'm just watching it vicariously through YouTube shorts. Good Indeed.

I'd say it's definately worth watching in full. All 3 seasons are only about 25 episodes total at around 20-25 mins each. Has some rewatch value too.
