  • The Get Down

    This show is fantastic. Iā€™m three episodes in (of the six episodes we can currently watch, with the second half coming out at a later date), and Iā€™m just so in love with the cast and awesome music – well, pretty much all of the music, I just donā€™t care for theĀ ā€œmodernā€ hip-hop that opens…

  • Stranger Things

    Oh god I loved this show, excessively so. We watched it the weekend it came out, and are already feeling sad that thereā€™s no more to watch – and that if they do make a season 2, that itā€™ll take at least a year to happen. Iā€™m a child of the 80s, and this is…

  • Voltron: Legendary Defender

    When Netflix initially announced that it was producing a new Voltron series, I found myself not caring at all – even though I watched all of Voltron as a kid, I realized that I donā€™t have any particular nostalgic love for it, like I do for other stuff of the era (and I also preferred…

  • Scream (TV)

    Iā€™d heard there was a TV series based on the Scream movies, but hadnā€™t really cared about it until I saw it pop up on Netflix, and thought it might be something my wife would enjoy watching together (she likes mystery-type shows, and scary stuff too). They have the first season (10 episodes), and are…

  • Bloodline

    This is one of those shows that Iā€™ve been wanting to check out for what seems like forever (well, since last year). I didnā€™t really know what it was about, but had heard that it was pretty good, and with the second season just coming out, I figured Iā€™d finally give it a try. I…

  • Lady Dynamite

    This show caught me completely by surprise. I hadnā€™t heard anything about it, and just saw it pop up on Netflix on Friday (itā€™s a new Netflix Original series), and wow, this show is fantastic so far. Iā€™m only 2 episodes in, but each was so damn funny, and I just love how crazy and…

  • Ali Wong: Baby Cobra

    I laughed so damn much watching this. I actually wasnā€™t really aware of Ali Wong, but had noticed that she was a guest on the WTF podcast last week (and have now listened to the episode), and so when I saw her stand-up special pop up on Netflix I decided to check it out, and…

  • Daredevil (Season 2)

    It took me until now (finished it the other night) to watch all of season 2 of Daredevil, which pretty much tells you how I felt about it. I was a big fan of the first season, but it was pretty much because it centered on the fantastic portrayal of the Kingpin. Here, the only…

  • The Mr. Peabody and Sherman Show

    I recently started watching this original Netflix series – I think thereā€™s already two seasons out – and wow, this is just so damn good. Sure, I remember those oldĀ ā€œPeabodyā€™s Improbably Historyā€ shorts from when I was a kid, and wasnā€™t particularly a huge fan, but Iā€™m just absolutely in love with the animation style…

  • Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Season 2)

    Iā€™m about halfway through this new season, and so far itā€™s just as good as the first one, dammit. God I love this show and these characters, and the quick fire pacing, and the jokes, and the everything (and yeah, that opening theme song still just the best). In the first episode, I also loved…
