Netflix Recommendations Thread 3.0

Am in knots here, have it on 😂

I can't wait to sit down with the kids and watch Lost Ollie, been looking forward to it since I saw the trailer a few weeks ago.

I know this is Netflix thread, but Under the Banner of Heaven is some programme if any of you have Disney +

On netflix I watched the latest Untold episode. About the rise of basketball brand AND1. Really good I thought. All the untold episodes are a good watch I think. The best is probably the Bruce / Caitlin Jenner ep. I didn't know much about Jenner and wrote him/her/them off as a vapid reality TV character due to the involvement with the Kardashians tv show. I was very wrong and that episode is very interesting as a life story.
