Peaky Effie blinders. Love it

I tried and tried to get into it but just found myself bored. Most likely because I am not a fan of shows set in the past (in general).

Watched Godless and enjoyed it, in general, but thought it was only alright.

Dark is next.

Top notch in every regard. The sets, the sounds, the music....not to mention the story and acting. But, then again, I generally like well done period pieces.

Lots of reasons that this could been bad for me; British and Irish accents, music out of period, violent...plot that gets a little contrived and disjointed all at the same time...all things that can easily derail a series for me. But, not so for Peaky Blinders. One of very few series that I will watch more than once.

I can't blame you there, I have a weird sense of what makes a good show or movie. I think the biggest thing is that it is period piece...

Never even seen it...but did HATE Scarface. I will never get those three hours of my life back.

Started Dark last night, pretty good first episode...looking forward to where they take it. Although, the voice over thing was really strange. Many times it looked like the actors were saying the same words, but other times not. Not sure why they added the subtitles since it has the voice over though.

The wife and I have so much to watch over her Christmas break...Defenders, Punisher, Stranger Things Season 2, whatever season they are on of Fuller House (only for the nostalgia of it...not really a good show). I think there are more too.

What I'm NOT watching on Netflix: Firefly

Why tf did they take it off? Very little that I watch more than once...but Firefly was an exception. That very rare show that can be put on at any time ...sort of a comfort food for the other senses. ****kers

I liked Punisher. It was better than I thought it would be.

Right now watching Dark. First episodes are kinda slow, but it's holding my interest a little better now.

Just not a big fan of overdubs, I guess it beats reading subtitles though.

Edit:

Honorable mention (on Hulu), Lucifer. I dig that show, one of the few I actually keep up with.

Just signed back up for this about a month ago...

Longmire
Walking Dead
House of Cards
Bob Ross Painting them happy little trees

Some random movies. I noticed that there seem to be a lot less movies on there this time around. They're definitely moving towards more of their original programming. I miss the old action flicks...

There's some good movies on there dude.

They rotate them out often, but there's usually a good selection movies on there, you just have to hunt them down.

Dark was good but slightly confusing. Spotless was really good. Watching Magic City now. Good so far.
