  • Narcos (Season 1)

    When the first season of Narcos was added to Netflix, I remember watching the first few episodes, and enjoying it, but for some reason I got distracted and never finished it. With the addition of a 3rd season recently, I was reminded that I always meant to go back, and since I couldn’t really remember what…

  • Halt and Catch Fire (Season 4)

    Halt and Catch Fire is among my favorite series of all time — it constantly feels like it was written just for me — and what we’ve seen so far of season 4 (the final season) has been fantastic. Every season has been set during a different era of technology, and this latest one, focusing…

  • Million Yen Women

    This is a co-production between Netflix and TV Tokyo, and it just got added the other day, and we binged it over the weekend. I’m not usually a big fan of Japanese dramas, but I really enjoyed this — and you can cruise through it, as each of the 12 episodes are half an hour.…

  • The Defenders

    And so I thought it was… OK. I liked it enough to binge it over the weekend, but I can’t say it’s really great. It started off with a godawful boring episode that had me at a point where I didn’t know if I even wanted to continue. It did get better, but it also acted…

  • The Expanse (Season 1)

    This week I finally finished watching season 1 of The Expanse. I’d originally started watching the series when it originally aired, and I was liking it fine without being incredibly wowed by it, and just sorta stopped watching it after about 4 episodes. In recent weeks I got in the mood to watch sci-fi again,…

  • Wet Hot American Summer: 10 Years Later

    I was so excited to watch this, and quickly binged it — although it’s pretty easily bingeable with only 8 short half-hour episodes. I love the original movie to bits, and also really enjoyed the other Netflix series we got, First Day of Camp. I’d say this one is a bit weaker than First Day,…

  • Game of Thrones (Season 7)

    Here we are, the 7th (and shorter) season. Two episodes in, we still haven’t gotten to the meat of things, but it’s off to a decent start, after a pretty quiet first episode (but with the delicious Ariya revenge scene at the start), and then a second episode that puts things in motion (naval battle,…

  • Lucha Underground (Season 1)

    Right now I’m incredibly addicted to watching the first season of Lucha Underground — I’m currently on episode 31 of 39 (they have the first 2 seasons on Netflix). I watched it for the first time back in 2015 while I was still in Japan, and was enjoying it at that time as well, but then…

  • Sunday Morning Cartoon Cavalcade (July 2017)

    So even though I haven’t been posting updates on a weekly basis like I was doing, I have in fact still been watching cartoons every Sunday morning. My standby continues to be a couple of Mickey Mouse shorts (I just finished season 2, so from next week will be attacking season 3) and old Merry…

  • South Park (Season 20)

    It’s been years since I’ve watched any South Park (I’d say probably 10-15 years), but these past few days I’ve been playing the South Park Phone Destroyer game, and it got me wanting to check it out again, so I decided to jump into season 20 (the latest season that they have up on the…
