THANKS for all the recommendations.
Just finished watching UNBELIEVABLE on Netflix from 2019. It was very good. About the investigation to catch a serial rapist. The rapes were done In flashbacks and not graphic if anyone has concerns. Only 1 season (8 episodes / 50 minutes each) and no plans for a second.

Sweet Magnolias (out of character show, for me, to watch but enjoyed it and will be devastated if there isn't a S2) I am trying to watch it this morning. That seen in the kitchen where the exhusband comes to leave the keys made me cringe. It was so cheesy hallmarkish. I am giving it a shot though. I am usually not a fluff tv show watcher.

I will tell you, the first episode I was like "hallmark!" but it did get better.

For the non serious fun watching crowd: American Housewife and Superstore I love Katy Mixon in American Housewife. I’ve seen many interviews with her and she seems like someone I would want to be friends with !

Athlete A was interesting. Finished Lenox Hill. I need another good documentary.

I highly recommend Athlete A. It is heartbreaking. So many adults didn't do the right thing. So many young girls damaged forever all in the name of sport and country.

Just finished watching BECKY. It’s a new action/thriller released last week with Kevin James & Joel McHale. I loved it ! If you don’t like blood & gore, you better pass on this one.

If you like mind bender time-travel stuff, Dark on Netflix is very good and the 3rd season just started this weekend. I'm rewatching season two right now because it has been a year and has so many twists and turns that I can't remember what happened.

Diagnosis- good show. Makes the diagnose me threads look like crowdsourcing. It doesn't hurt to ask when you have something really weird going on since doctors don't know everything.

Dating Around was kind of funny. It shows about first dates for the featured person and if there's a second date. It was humorous. I'm curious if anyone watches it and what they think about the last girl, forget her name.

I just finished last night Netflix’s DEAD TO ME. It was sooooo good and I’m sure was a TwoPea recommendation. There’s two seasons (‘19 & ‘20), 10 episodes each season and only 30 minutes each. I can’t wait for May 2021 to see what happens next !!!

I’ve been on a “down under” kick and enjoying the following shows: I started watching Rosehaven (which I’m sure I read about here), but midway through the show was pulled.
The. I watched Step Dave (New Zealand). I really liked this one.
Now I’ve moved on to Wonderland. It’s a cross between Melrose Place and Friends. I look forward to watching a couple episodes every night-very bingable!
All are on Prime. I open to more Australian suggestions. I watched and loved Offspring several years ago.

I just finished Lenox Hill. I absolutely fell in love with all the staff there. The final show made me absolutely weep.

I will suggest The Letdown. Similar to Canada's Working Moms, it is about a group of new parents. The show is real - both funny and a bit sad.

I open to more Australian suggestions. Wanted! It is fabulous ~ both DH and I loved it and were sad when it ended. We are 2 episodes away from finishing Line of Duty. If anyone likes British Crime dramas, this is one of the best. Tough subject matter sometimes but so good. It focuses on a division that investigates *bent coppers* or in the USA we would say dirty cops.

We just finished Season 1, and boy, I was not expecting that ending! We're really enjoying it too. So, thanks, Joy!

DH, DS and I laugh every time they say bent coppers. Or just coppers! This isn't a big spoiler but a fun fact. Remember Ryan, the kid on the bike? In season 4 he is grown up! We just realized it was him last night. I wanted to seriously hurt him throughout season one.

I'm rewatching season two right now because it has been a year and has so many twists and turns that I can't remember what happened. I am 2 episodes in to Season 3. I feel like I have been shagged backwards and forwards and upside down three times this is such a mind binding show. I am anxious to get to the end because I need it to end! LOL

Snowpiercer: both the film and the TV series are excellent. Jennifer Connolly is extraordinary in the series, and we’re glued to what happens next.
I can’t recommend it enough.

LOL I'm at the same place because I decided to watch Season 2 again after reading the recaps and still not remembering all of the twists. I'm having to watch Season 3 with a Dark wiki up because I am so lost, but in a good way.

Has anyone suggested Hollywood or Self Made? Hollywood is just fun but it also shows a utopian version of Hollywood and how thing might have gone if people in power had been more brave and used their power for good. It’s like the anti-Trump.
Self Made is a wonderful story, recounting the life of CJ Walker. Interesting and inspiring.

Currently watching Wanted. It’s good, but not as good as I expected from reviews here. Sort of improbable and predictable at the same time.
I just finished both seasons of Sex Education, which is possibly one of my favorite shows ever. I love the character development and vulnerability and quirkiness. I realize I like quirky.
