If you like Nicola Walker, watch The Split. She plays a lawyer, and it is fun to see her in makeup and wearing a suit!

If you liked Harlan Coben’s The Stranger, he also has out there The Five and the most recent series, The Woods. I haven’t seen either one. I should have read the responses before I posted ~ great minds and all. I can't believe you haven't watched The Five yet! You must! thank you! Will start it tonight 👍 |

I just started watching Indian Matchmaker a couple of days ago. Interesting how the matchmaker works.
I binged this in a couple sittings. I enjoyed it. Google the updates on the people featured when you finish. Won’t say anything, but interesting...

This is on Hulu, I just discovered it. ER!!!! I haven’t seen this show in a couple of years! 😍
This makes me not want to quit Hulu in a couple of weeks when our trial is over.

Prime: The Americans (older) I got Prime just to see The Americans, I highly recommend it. Netflix: Orange is the New Black Bloodline Stranger Things for a crazy documentary that will have you yelling at the tv: Abducted In Plain Sight Hulu: Little Fires Everywhere The Handmaiden's Tale Apple TV+: The Morning Show |

We started Season 3 of Good Girls on Netflix last night. Talking about a good neck tattoo ... I love that show so much. I am ashamed of how hot I find that terrible, terrible character though. Talk about bad boy! Between my feelings for him and Thomas Shelby, I am beginning to worry about my moral compass.  |

I hope this wasn't already mentioned and I missed it but has anyone watched Absentia on Prime? It came up on another thread/site and I thought I might check it out if it's got the pea stamp of approval!

I recently divorced Directv ( it was a long time coming. $$$ ). I got Hulu Live and absolutely love it ! They have everything in their catalog, so much. I also have Netflix. The 3 of us are getting along wonderfully. 😊 |

My recent binges are:
The Great (Hulu) — raunchy but very light and fun
Normal People (Hulu?) — serious drama with good sex scenes and love story. Slow and a bit of a downer but still worth watching.
Lenox Hill (Netflix) — documentary about Lenox Hill hospital in NYC. Love, loved this so much!
The Last Dance (Netflix) — documentary about the heyday of the Chicago Bulls with Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, etc in the late 80’s/early 90’s. Very well done series that I really enjoyed.
Lovesick (Netflix) — dramedy about friends and love. Loved it!

DH and I have been watching Indian Matchmaking. It is like a reality show dating version of House Hunters but instead of looking for houses they are looking for spouses.

We were disappointed with the last one (maybe even two) - I guess we expected a little more in the ending. It really WAS good overall. We watched the TV-14 version with our 15 year old son. He watched every minute. |

If you enjoy shows like The Amazing Race, I would recommend a show called Twogether on Netflix. I believe it's Korean. It's about two Asian actors, one Korean and one I think from Taiwan, who travel through Asia completing challenges together. They don't speak the same native language, and their struggle to communicate is part of the show. It helps to satisfy some of my wanderlust while we are stuck at home.

The first couple of times I was watching my husband would walk in the room during the most raunchy of sex scenes, he just looked at me and shook his head. He is used to me watching shows like Matlock or Psych or something similar in my craft room. Quite a departure, but oh man, is Thomas Shelby HAWT. |

The Great (Hulu) — raunchy but very light and fun I wasn't sure about this when I started watching, but after the second episode I was hooked. I ended up loving it and it made me laugh out loud quite a bit - the only thing I hated was the treatment of animals...I quickly learnt to fast forward whenever an animal appeared. You have to give an episode or two to get into the swing of the humour. I hope the ending means there will be a second series. |

Interesting new show on Netflix: Fear City, about the takedown of New York's mafia families.
The way they got some of the bugs installed to record these people are both clever and astoundingly obvious to someone of my generation, who has the benefit of hindsight and more advanced technology and multiple movies and crime shows.
The REAL recordings of these people sound like a TV show, what stereotypes! I'm on episode 2.
There is no way I'd ever agree to be on this show no matter what. Some of these people were/are just fearless. Much respect. You so much as threaten my cat and I'm packing my bags for outer Mongolia. No way could I have been a part of those task forces.

It came up on another thread/site and I thought I might check it out if it's got the pea stamp of approval! It's not bad but i quit watching somewhere in season 2 and never picked it back up. Not sure why. I guess i just had so many other things to watch i didn't get back into it. |

1. I'm on epi 2 of "Safe" ( Netflix)...another great, British murder mystery. 2. Also watched a HILARIOUS documentary (Prime) called " When Jews Were Funny"...omg  3. Another interesting doc (Prime) about " Streit's Matzo" in New York City. Such a nice story of a family business (dating back to 1925) who really care about their loyal, long-term employees, and always assuring their products are extremely high-quality. It's sad because that part of NYC (lower East side) is losing all the "Mom and Pop" businesses. It makes me sad to see these vintage buildings torn down to make condos.  (P.S..... I haven't had matzo in yearrrrs, and now I'm craving it! I may order from them via Amazon). 4. Tearisci ....I really enjoyed "Absentia", and just saw they released a new season, so I'll probably be watching soon. 5. cadoodlebug ....I LOVED " Bloodline" and wissssh they hadn't cancelled it prematurely, but grateful for the...what was it---five ? ---seasons. I read that they'd planned more, but the cost of filming in Florida had increased too much I've reco'd it to many people who also love it. |

But THIS one is jusssst....brilliant! I love every. single. character !!! I also RARELY actually "LOL", but THIS show...OMG! I'm soo sad they didn't do more than 4 seasons !!! I'm trying to watch slowly, to savor each one so it won't end too quickly. The one who makes me laugh the MOST is the son who used to live in the parents' garage----his FACIAL expressions slay me !!!!!! Also, Tom Hank's son's wife---she just cracks me UP! I also LOVE Diane Weist, and she and James Brolin are perfect together. |

I’ve not read every post so this may already have been mentioned. I’d recommend Below Deck, Below Deck Med and Below Deck Sailing Yacht. I binge watched every episode in less than a week. It’s a reality show set on luxury charter motor yachts in the Caribbean and Mediterranean.
