This TV show (limited, so no second season, TG) was SO good. It's the story of a girl, orphaned, who learns chess, but also battles addiction. The chess parts could be any sport or game, really, it's not necessary to understand the game at all to watch the show. And I'm so glad it's limited, so there won't be more to ruin it. Just a nice, long, self-contained story. Very bingable.

Has anyone seen this film on Netflix? It's written and directed by Aaron Sorkin (and I guess Steven Spielberg?), so if he's not your thing then you likely won't like it, but it's a fictional (with some fairly obvious liberties) retelling of the time when anti-war protesters were arrested and tried in Chicago during the sixties. Sacha Baron Cohen (I wish he would do more drama, he's good at it) plays Abbie Hoffman, a well known 60s Activist. And it took me forever to realize that the Federal Prosecutor was Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

I know this originally aired in 2018 but when I searched "Waco" I couldn't find another thread. Is anyone else watching this/has watched it? I watched the first half in a short period of time but I'm afraid of what comes next. I only had a surface level idea of what all happened and this has been eye opening. Dammit for ruining my Taylor Kitsch crush though. I'll need a lot of Friday Night Lights/Tim Riggins to make up for him as David Koresh.

Has anyone else watched comedian Mae Martin's new show on Netflix, Feel Good? It's a semi-autobiographical show about sexuality, addiction, substance abuse, and mental health.

Does anyone else LOVE Schitt’s Creek? The name of the show prevented me learning anything about it or watching it, but once I gave it a chance, I was absolutely hooked. I’ve never been much of a fan of Eugene Levy and Catherine O’Hara, but their roles here totally showcase their immense talent. All of the characters are hilarious and Seasons 3 and 4 has the best romance storyline that I’ve ever watched. If you like shows like Arrested Development, The Office, Parks & Rec, etc., please give Schitt’s a shot. It brings me so much joy!

Has anyone seen Netflix's Ted Bundy documentary. I've always been a bit of a true crime nerd, so I thought I already knew about Bundy. But the doc made me see for the first time how charming he was, and how "normal" he sounded. I've heard it before, but this was the first time actually seeing it. It's unnerving. Like I thought I'd be above that (which is I know is kind of arrogant), but now I realize that maybe I wouldn't have been. It made me feel even more empathy and sympathy for his victims. Anyone else have a similar reaction? Anyway, now I've completely gone down the rabbit hole, a

Has anyone else seen this? I'd love your impressions. It wasn't as scary as I thought (hoped) it would be. I liked the fleshing out of the characters. I was frustrated by the dad's keeping secrets (but I guess that was the thing that kept the plot going). And the ending. I'll put my FJ-related thought under spoiler. I'm hoping to see the old black and white version in a theater this weekend. I also want to read the book again.

Amanda Knox on Netflix *Possible Triggers discussing a violent crime*
drivingmishcrazy posted a topic in Quiverfull of Documentaries
Hey all, I didn't see a thread about this one so I took the liberty. Mods if I just missed an existing thread, I apologise. Anyone else catch this documentary yet? What did you all think of it? Truthfully I only vaguely remember the crime when it happened and didn't really know specifics about the crime. I knew supposedly Amanda was "weird" and the Italian police were criticized as being incompetent. When I looked up details after release I thought some of the things they did in the investigation were really odd and it seemed like they were just trying to make things fit because they want- 6 replies

Anyone else watching this? It's a Netflix original. I love the 80s movie feeling. It's weird though. I don't know what to think about the actual plot. It's also so weird to see Winona Ryder playing a mom.

Anyone else watching this? It's the latest Netflix original. I've been binge-watching it this weekend and it is so good. Huge female cast, diverse characters, and a trans actress playing a trans woman. (Lots of lesbian content too if you're into that.) It's gotten great reviews so far--[link=http://www.huffingtonpost.com/maureen-ryan/orange-is-the-new-black_b_3574249.html]here's[/link] one--and I really can't recommend it enough. I've been surprised at just how much I've been enjoying it.

This is Tina Fey's new project, and it's on Netflix. Anyone else watching? Kimmy was kidnapped by a crazy preacher when she was 14 and spent 15 years living in a bunker with 3 other women, convinced they were the only survivors of the apocalypse. The series picks up when the women (dubbed the Indiana Mole Women) are rescued and Kimmy decides to not see herself as a victim, but to reintegrate into the world and pursue her dreams. It's delightful. Since it's Netflix, the whole series is available immediately. I'm 5 episodes in and it keeps getting better.

This show is a reimagining of Prisoner, an Australian soap opera that ran from 1979 to 1986. It is soooooo good! Seasons 1-3 are on Netflix. Season 4 starts on Tuesday! That probably won't reach Netflix USA until Christmas.

Sorry if this has already been posted, but did anyone else notice that Netflix is removing 19 Kids and Counting this week? You have until October 5th to snark. I wonder if this coming from TLC or Netflix?

What good movies/tv shows/documentaries are out there that I should see? I feel like I am in a netflix rut. Feel free to throw in indie stuff, lesser known. I'll watch pretty much anything if it is good.

I watched the film on Netflix. It's about two young women, one is a strict Muslim and the other is an Orthodox Jew. They become friends are both in the process of marrying, or rather looking at marriage prospects. It was interesting. Has anyone seen it? Thoughts?
