I sat down to watch one episode and four hours later I was still watching the series. It was easy to gobble up in two days. I love when images and voices stay with me after I’ve watched something good...

Great job done by all and I look forward to seeing it again.

I just finished this. I had so many friends talk about it.
The acting. The music. The set designs. And the fashions !! Very good😉

Billions, watched the first few seasons a while back, financial soap opera, just caught up on the last two seasons on Showtime.

Now watching Transparent which I never saw any of before. When everyone was seeing it a few years ago I was too busy with other things. Really enjoying it now, 3 episodes in. Prime.

What a great courtroom testifying ending.....

If ONLY the book that it was based on, You Should Of Known was half as good

Happiest Season w/ Kristen Stewart on Hulu. Little cheesy but cute, and cheesy is okay this time of year.

FX Networks version of A Christmas Carol on Hulu too. I'd seen it last year but watched it again last night. It is becoming a tradition in my house. Such a great version with just the right amount of haunting and gorgeous cinematics. Best I've ever seen, though not for children.

So I binged on the Queens Gambit, and I believe I may have a new crush
I agree Orema very well done I was thinking the same thing with every cool car or hotel scene set, the colors and vibe really well made series

But the lead character wow she has me enthralled

So next up to watch I can’t find anything catching my attention so I might watch Gabriel Iglesias new comedy skit
Anyone have any suggestions?

Rico and I have been watching season two of the Taco Chronicles.

There is a few street taco stands in the metro area and sometimes we drop by and pick up street tacos which are delightful and delicious. We miss dining al fresco but thank heavens for carry out service. Rico is working on honing his culinary skills for making his version of street Tacos. Until he master's making Tacos, at least there is a few places to go to get some awesome street tacos!

I saw an excerpt from Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee with Jerry Seinfeld and Eddie Murphy and was CTFU. I love good comedians and nice cars so I'll be at Netflix watching seasons of that for awhile. Please let us know if you see anything worth checking out.

Tradition: Jan. 1, Rose Parade, excited to see it was on.
SURPRISED, but wondered why no masks, and such huge crowds here in Southern Calif. where we are in stay at home orders. ????

UGH- It was the pre-recorded 2014 Rose Bowl, so I searched Netflix and found

COBRA KAI and Binge watched it till dark.

to be continued.....

Does anyone have any suggestions for a good, bingeable series on Showtime? I recently subscribed so I could watch the last season of Dexter, and I plan to cancel before the end of the month unless I find something else really good to watch. I've already seen the following:

Queer as Folk
The L Word
Nurse Jackie
Homeland
Californication
Dead Like Me
Weeds
United States of Tara
The Big C
Jeremiah

Also, has anyone watched Moonbase 8? How was it?

I'm also open to suggestions for movies, but I'm really more of a series person. Thanks!

I signed up recently, too, and are a couple of suggestions

I'm Dying Up Here. I'm currently watching this and enjoying it. It's about the Los Angeles stand-up comedy scene in the 1970s. You may like this based on your list.)

This American Life (I used to listen to the podcast and will start watching this in the next day or so and you may like this based on your list.)

Will let you know if I see some other things you might like after I get into some series.

This started a few weeks back so you might be able to binge the past weeks episodes, but otherwise it airs every Sunday evening!

It's good, it's VERY good......
