Title: What's on your Netflix playlist?
Post by: oboe on October 19, 2022, 11:23:04 PM
I think I must be getting soft in my old age, but this show really has me. The main character is just the sweetest, most naive and beautiful thing. She cracks me up but it can be tough keeping up with reading the subtitles. Really interesting to see modern life in South Korea too - such a wealthy society; such beautiful people.

After Designated Survivor we have been done with that company.
Woke as it gets now and denigrates my faith…
It’d be novel to find a competitor that aligns with my values.

Some strange arse show called the Watchers supposedly based off a true story...
It is was .. it looks extremely exaggerated
What passes as entertainment today leaves much to be desired imo

Denigrates your faith? Does that make you sensitive? I've heard people use the term "snowflake" before. Is that the context in which it is used, generally?
The docs mentioned by Spikes are excellent, highly recommend. Dahmer is good for about 5 episodes, then it slows way down and gets boring.
All Quiet is going to be awesome, cannot wait.

Dahmer was just to dark. I usually enjoy serial killer docs, but not this one.
Virgin River is very good, Logmire also.

Hurrah for mocking and disparaging people for their 1st Amendment rights. You and Bug should meet up vandalizing some religious institution, no?

Promotion of religious intolerance by a company, I believe would not be covered. Of course, these days with judge shopping it’s possible to procure any outcome…

Seeing as religion is a disallowed topic, it seems like you are breaking the rules regarding the very thing you are threatening to sue for. :headscratch:

I’m not threatening to sue anyone.
Also, the Bug named a religion, not me, I said my faith…which could be Druid for all anyone here knows, yet he assumed.

Some series that I have liked on Netflix:
Love, Death, Robots (science-fiction shorts, animation, each done by a different team) Stranger Things (fantasy/horror) Happy (super-dark fantasy comedy -- over-the-top violent and not for everyone) Wild, Wild Country (documentary series on a cult in Oregon -- fascinating and excellently done) Ash vs. Evil Dead (if you liked Army of Darkness and the Evil Dead movies) Maniac (edgy, distopian series) Wakfu (kid-oriented animated series, but I loved it. Epic fantasy once things get going deeper in series.) Avatar: the Last Airbender (animated series -- not movie. Same as above.) The Legend of Kora (animated series. Same as above)

Did that years ago, see page 1, 2nd post.
Longmire was the only show on Netflix (but it was A&E produced) I found to be worth a darn.
Frontier and Designated Survivor shows Netflix Inc.’s true colors. Both had good base storylines, interjected wokeness ruined them.

I watch Netflix from Britain so I am not sure if many of the British and foreign shows and films I have watched on it here are available over the pond. Something that may appeal to AHers that I watched recently was a Danish film called "The Bombardment" about a 1945 RAF Mosquito raid on the Gestapo HQ in Copenhagen. It is a bit grim but has some of the best CGI WW2 aircraft sequences I have ever seen in a movie, way more realistic than the cartoon stuff Hollywood often churns out. The best US series I have seen on it was "The Queen's Gambit" about a female American chess prodigy in the 60's; the acting, script and production values were all excellent. Much of Netflix's output is of a much lower standard though and it is getting hard to find anything I want to watch on it. So I may ditch it soon and try a different streaming service.

Thanks Greebo, "The Bombardment" is available in the U.S. and I've added it to my list on your recommendation.
I also enjoyed "Queen's Gambit" very much, and also liked "Longmire". I currently reside in N Colorado, not far from where Longmire was supposedly set in Wyoming, so the environs felt familiar. I intend someday to rewatch and then visit the downtown where the show was filmed in Las Vegas, NM.
We watched all the the first Stranger Things but haven't looked at the second one. I also like Love,Death & Robots for quick entertainment when time is tight.

As I like chess, I found Queens Gambit very enjoyable

the only TV I watch is when I go to bed and turn it on for about an hour. I went years and years without even having a TV. I just don't watch movies or TV shows very often.
When I go to bed I just watch whatever is on the regular over the air TV. Lately it's been re-runs of The Closer ( pretty good show) and The Office.
I prefer documentaries or history shows, but I don't have cable or anything that really has those.

We have ONLY been watching TV via a computer for the last year, have learned how to watch just about anything. (You DO need to pony up for a few $10 a month subscriptions tho) Of late I've found you can watch classic old tv shows over YouTube. Fascinating to see how our world has changed

Will Disney make "Firefly" go woke? I don't know how far in the future it's supposed to be, but I'd assume if wokeness lasted that long then all humans would be insane by then.
