So, I know I have watched a couple shows lately that I would recommend, but don’t deserve a thread. So I thought it might be good to create something for others. Feel free to add (or discuss) - Maggie (Hulu) - this is super fun. It’s about a psychic and relationships. I watched the entire season in one afternoon. It didn't get great reviews but I thought it was super cute.

I thought of one more: Starstruck on HBO. 2 seasons and it’s a light rom-com about a girl falling in love with a movie star. Rose Matafeo is the writer/lead actress and is very funny. And I read they’re doing a Season 3.

I've been watching a lot of FDLS documentaries which led to one series about weird cults. It's on Hulu but I can't remember the name.

I’ve enjoyed My Brilliant Friend on HBO/max. IIRC, the first couple seasons episodes weren’t always in order, so I googled the episode list and watched by title (may be fixed by now). Also it’s in Italian.
Amazon: Red Oaks Upload- the 2nd season wasn’t as good as the 1st The Boys Mrs Maisel

Has anyone watched Blood & Treasure? I think it started out on a network and now the new (2nd) season is launching on Paramount+ following a long COVID hiatus. I read an article about it and thought it sounded fun, but I haven’t watched it yet. (Indiana Jones vibe — it’s about an antiquities dealer and his art thief ex, who have to team up to stop bad guys.)
I am waiting for my kid to pause Paw Patrol and might give it a try for laundry folding time this afternoon.

I loved loved LOVED The Durrells in Corfu. (Just realized my lovetit for richard did not go through when I saw her post last week, so I’m reiterating.) It’s such a fun and gorgeous show, and just so different. I’ve been watching Hotel Positano on PBS, much darker because the looming fascist threat is more apparent, but similar paradise-with-expiration-date vibe that nonetheless makes me want to go to a coast somewhere. Not nearly as good a show (yet? But unlikely to ever be as good as Durrells, as it lacks Keeley Hawes). But enjoyable!

Has anyone watched Bloodline on Netflix? H and I have that on our list next. We both have crushes on Kyle Chandler aka Coach Taylor.

We just finished God’s Favorite Idiot on Netflix and i say if you are thinking about it, don’t. It was almost there but just missed the mark.

I watched all of The Durrells when I was isolating in a room with Covid and had literally nothing to do. I started it because I was bored but I loved it almost immediately. It's so funny and unstuffy. I only knew Josh O'Connor as Prince Charles from The Crown and Mr. Elton in Emma (worst) but he was so funny in this. And the cast as a whole is great - I especially loved Theo and Spiro.

The first season was great and I think it should’ve been a limited series. The second season got a little convoluted and dragged out IMO. I don’t even remember if we finished season 2.

I'll also add that I feel like Melissa McCarthy's stuff has gotten less funny over the years. I still love her but her earlier movies were the best. The Heat and Spy are my two favorites. Also Identity Thief.

I started Maggie earlier this week and I love it so far. It has a sort of Gilmore Girls quality to it, obviously very different premise, etc, but the patter of the dialog and the quaint locations (sets) remind me of it for some reason.

I just started The Boys. Apparently MH watched the first two seasons because it came up on my keep watching area. I was like dude, we have our own profiles. Use yours. If you don't mind copious over use of the word fuck, loads of penis, and gore intense murder, you'll probably like it, lol. It's very intense but it has plenty of funny bits and it actually pretty good.

We've been watching The Righteous Gemstones on HBO Max. It's some of the best made TV (up there with Severance) I've seen in a while. It manages to be hilarious, dark, and touching all at the same time. Good music choices that suit the scenes as well.

The whole cast is amazing but Danny McBride really shines in it for me.

so we have been watching Claim to Fame
It is on currently only 3 episodes in but I sort of love this trainwreck. It is Big Brother with a little masked singer because 12 people live in a house together and they are all relatives of a celebrity (Some of them are pretty obvious)and the others have to try and determine who their relative is.
