Re: So I finally got Netflix...
I am disliking their "weekly" shows. I like Hasan Minaj and Michelle Wolf's shows, but I hate having to wait a week for the next episode. I long since forgot to keep checking for new Michelle Wolf shows.
Netflix needs to come up with a way to notify me about this shit.

Good to see Netflix cancelled some of those awful Marvel shows.
Hope this superhero/comic book nonsense is finally losing steam.

More than likely it's because Netflix doesn't want to spend the money promoting the shows since they know the Disney streaming app is coming.

Re: So I finally got Netflix...
There’s a brilliant documentary on Netflix called the 34th. About Ireland’s long walk to marriage equality after years of struggle under horrible catholic homophobic control to what feels like now an overnight rejection of it. (It wasn’t overnight but it was a huge cultural shift that took place quite quickly)
Really uplifting and so well made. Give it a go.

It was good. I was questioning where it was gonna go almost till the end.wease wrote:I just added it to the list last night, but we’ve not started it yet.doone wrote:for those who like British drama, The Bodyguard is good. Only 3 episodes in and so much has happened. All killer no filler with this show.
We started The Good Place last night. Pretty forking good so far.
Also I love a Scots accent. Especially when they say the word "murder".

Re: So I finally got Netflix...
The wife and I enjoyed Atypical. And she's a special ed teacher, so if she recommends a show featuring a kid with autism, you know it's a pretty accurate depiction.

A Touch of Cloth is probably the funniest thing Charlie Brooker's done, and that's saying a lot.
