Atypical

So I finished this a few nights ago, it had its misses, but overall I enjoyed it and hope they make a second season. The humor gave a Parks and Rec vibe at points.

My only gripe, is they had a few moments where the story line felt a bit forced, but overall had several funny moments.

 

So my wife and I are about to try and start a new show. Suggestions from Netflix?

We’ve already seen Stranger Things, The Last Kingdom and Altered Carbon.

 

Looking exclusively for something serious/dramatic?

 

Open to all suggestions. It’s always nice to have a serious/dramatic type show and a comedy show to jump between every now and then.

 

Have yall watched GLOW? It's a really fun show and season 2 is coming soon.

The docu-series Evil Genius and that The Staircase we've been talking about are pretty good if you're into true crime stuff. (Evil Genius is the more interesting of the two imo)

Mindhunter is really, really good.

I assume you've seen Ozark? If not I'd put that at the top of the list.

 

Ozark, The Punisher, and that new Lost in Space show are on our shortlist. Just haven’t decided which to start with. Also curious if there’s anything else out there we need to look at.

Unfortunately my wife doesn’t really like true crime docs so those are something I try and catch on my own occasionally.

I’ve heard good things about GLOW but my wife can’t get past it’s about women wrestlers. Lol.

 

Dude. Watch Ozark. You won't regret it. I'm confident you'll both love it.

GLOW. Yeah, my wife was the exact same way. I had to wear her down to give it a shot. But she ended up loving it even more than I did. I also have friends whose wives/girlfriends thought it looked stupid and ended up loving it. They are 30 minute episodes. If you can get her to commit to 2 episodes I bet she'll get hooked. There's a lot for women in that show. It's not all about wrestling.

 

I’ll probably start with Ozark. One season will be easy to get through.

 

Ozark is good. The best show on Netflix is Wentworth.

How did you like the Last Kingdom? I am a fan of Bernard Cornwell and was reading the books when season 1 came out so I was bias. I really liked it.

 

American Vandal

Netflix added it to my list...

Spoiler

never heard of it but was watching while eating lunch... show seemed 'off'... LOL I was about half way thru the firs episode before I realized it was a mocumentary


Chappelle did it better...
