What did you watch on Netflix/Hulu/other streaming sites? - Page 58

I've switched to Netflix today. I found a series about the world of fake profiles, emotional exchanges and internet investigations.

Click Bait

We went with the Disney Channel today. Robin Hood (the cartoon) was cuter than I remembered. We're about to watch The Apple Dumpling Gang - who can go wrong with Don Knotts?

It's hard to find, but I finally caught the documentary The Six. There were eight Chinese passengers on the Titanic; six survived the sinking (hence the title). When the rescue ship landed at New York, these passengers (all men) disappeared. Researchers and historians in several countries tried to track them down.

To paraphrase it, because of exclusionary immigration policies, the six Chinese were not allowed to remain in the U.S, nor return to England. All six were put on a cargo ship bound for Cuba. One died there in 1914. Two others eventually returned to the chaos of China and disappeared. One other had too common a name to definitely trace.

That left two, one of whom did manage to get into Canada where he ran a restaurant for many years.

The most interesting was the last; a man in Wisconsin found that his father had in fact been on the Titanic from another relative. He had no idea, there was no speaking of it. All that time he thought his father was in China (the man himself was born when his father was already in his 70's.) With the researchers, he traced his father's early life in China and found distant relatives. The unassuming Wisconsin man was very moved from what his father had gone through.

The documentary was beautifully done and was an indictment on the long history of exclusionary policies that persisted into the 1940's.

I've been rewatching the last few seasons of NCIS, and I finally got to season 22, the last one and only one I haven't seen. Man, these people have gotten old! Of course, it's been 22 years. And, at the end of every episode there's a memoriam for someone who passed.

I sure am going to miss this show when it ends. I Googled it and no one seems to know if CBS will renew it for season 23.

I love that show...

I'm watching JAG on Prime. It's interesting, but it's a little hard to take some scenes because there are always misogynistic men who give the female lieutenant a hard time. She always gets her own back, (including some fight scenes! she's really a badass - but a cutesy badass, sort of like if Julie-Your-Cruise-Director had a gun and knew some karate) so it's really kind of annoying in places. I don't know how long I'll stick with it.

I'm still binging JAG. It got much better after the first season, so much so that I bought the DVD set so that I can watch the episodes that are missing from Prime.

I just finished all 12 seasons of The Big Bang Theory. I've been watching it forever, because I only watched one or two episodes a day with my morning coffee. It was so funny, made me really happy and gave me a great start to each day. I'm sorry to see it end, but they wrapped everything up well.

An afternoon watching a Jack Nicholson movie from 1990:

The Two Jake’s.

I’m watching Designated Survivor. I’ve tried to watch it twice now. This time I’m definitely getting into it.

Bèsame* · 05-31-2025, 08:01 AM

I'm watching a lot of TV. This was a good storyline...

GeorgiaMa'am · 06-01-2025, 08:56 PM

I started watching Mobland on Prime. I got through two and a half episodes before I decided I couldn't go any farther. I like mob series and movies, usually, but not one single character in this show has any humanity whatsoever. I can't sympathize with a single one. If there really are people like this in the world, they should all just blow each other up. Anyway, I'll be re-watching some episodes of Queer Eye to get happy again and then moving on to something else.

True Story. I loved it, you will too.

We watched Ocean’s Eight last night and it was super enjoyable.
