Netflix Recommendations 2.0 *READ FIRST POST*

The OA season 2: I'm 3 episodes in and so far it's as good as the first one. It's got that same mysterious hold and the writing & characters are very good.

Any one else seen it?

Do they learn the YMCA dance in the second season?

Men Behaving Badly is still good. Harry Enfield and friends is crap alright

I never watched the OA Cos most reports said it started well but then went completely stupid ?
It is the type of show I would usually like too

Firstly you have to measure the bonkers type..

Example: Brexit Bonkers = bad. OA Bonkers = good.

Last Laugh. Passable comedy with Richard Dreyfus and Chevy Chase. Nice to see them on good form, they make a decent double act.

Komisky Method. Another ageing 80's star, Michael Douglas now doing 'old man' comedy. Co-star Alan Arkin makes being in your 80's look like fun.

Our World. Excellent natural history series, basically Planet Earth 3, presented by 90+ years young David Attenborough.

Do you mean "Our Planet"?

The reviews i have seen for this are horrendous, shame I love Stanley Tucci.

Gotti may be the worst film of the last decade. I lasted 15 minutes

The little preview it shows when highlighted on PS 4 was enough to tell me I'll never watch.

"We're hitting Paul"

He then goes on to talk about lots of details that aren't remotely related, in this real syncopated style, like every line was shot days apart.
Talking about Christmas shoppers, showing people holding shopping bags, talking about the street it's on, showing the junction..
It's about 30 seconds long, and it's excruciating.

Aka...A Quiet Birdbox

I enjoyed watching The Silence, but I enjoy watching terrible movies. It's awful, silly, and stupid, with a murky colour tone, and ends when it seems about to actually get interesting.

One thing that did really bother me, and Netflix may fix this, but when I watched it earlier today, there was only one option for English subtitles, "English - Closed Captioning". Now, you need subtitles on for the sign language parts, but this option also shows stuff like, [whispers], [dramatic music], [snarls softly], etc. It was annoying, and shoddy stuff from Netflix.

Also, I just read Stanley Tucci is married to Felicity Blunt, Emily Blunt's sister. How do you figure that conversation went, when Felicity was telling Emily about the new movie her husband was filming?

Yeah I'm watching it now and I'd agree with you regarding the subtitles. Tis a mess.

Edit. Well that was ****ing rubbish.

Black Summer season 1
A prequel set in the Z Nation universe, this new series introduces all new characters from every walk of life. As what’s left of the old world order collapses around them, a group of survivors encounter the best and worst of humanity in the darkest hours of the Zombie Apocalypse.

I gave up on Z Nation, after the first two seasons. But, I'd be open to watching this, if it gets a decent reception. I like the idea of a 8-episode miniseries, about a zombie outbreak. Not interested in another zombie series that's going to go on for multiple seasons, though.

Checking the episode lengths on Netflix, and they're weird. First episode is the longest at 44min, episode 7 is 25min, and episode 8, the last episode is only 20min. Total runtime for the series is 4hr 40min.
