Covers the history of USA in progressive episodes with really good characters, interesting storylines and top notch actors. Not at all dried, forced lessons type show. My mom and I both loved it.. Another couple great mini series are Rich Man, Poor Man and Holocaust, both from the 80's also. Highly recommend all 3 for everyone because of the great actors and writing </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2110121 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 18:15:18 +0000 Laurie 2110121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>lisap,&nbsp;</b>just started <i>Unorthodox</i> last night - it is outstanding.

It's Hulu show, available on Crave + in Canada.<br />Scott &amp; Bailey - British detective show on Netflix, about two 40+ female detectives. Strong characters, relationship dynamics, and actors who look their age.<br />Bodyguard - British police drama miniseries on Netflix that's a bit sexy too. Not the most sophisticated plot but low commitment (6 episodes), and did I mention sexy?&nbsp;<br />SMILF - this one about a single mother is a bit outside the box. I loved it, especially Rosie O'Donnell playing her mother. Showtime/Crave. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109992 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 07:18:05 +0000 Carla 2109992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have just finished Unorthodox on Netflix, the first series I have ever watched (!), and it was just incredible, I definitely recommend that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109974 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 03:55:57 +0000 elpgal 2109974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unorthodox is riveting.<br /> Gentefied - It is a little over the top but a good sleep- inducer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109933 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 00:48:56 +0000 Carla 2109933@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would your dad like ‘Foyle’s War’ or the old, old, PBS series ‘Sharpe’? &nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>I wish someone would do a reboot of ‘All Creatures Great and Small’.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109922 Mon, 30 Mar 2020 00:00:19 +0000 annagybe 2109922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Found out from a friend on Facebook that Disney+ has National Geographic, so I’ll sign up for that.<br />And I can finally see Baby Yoda (yes I know that’s not the show name) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109909 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 23:20:43 +0000 Sal 2109909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OOh thanks for the recommendations.</p> <p>My Dad loves Masterchef etc even though he is not very adventurous cooking or eating wise.&nbsp; He is 80.&nbsp; Even old episodes might work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109873 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 18:36:19 +0000 rachylou 2109873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would your dad like nature and science programs, Anna?

The book was simply fantastic, and I'm excited to start watching this today, hopefully. Little Fires Everywhere has just released on Hulu (which I don't have but tech-savvy husband is charged with finding me a good copy somewhere ) (based on the Celeste Ng book of the same name - which was also fantastic ) . We also watched the 2017 film David Crosby: Remember My Name &nbsp;(released at Sundance that year ) which was terrific if you are a CSNY/Byrds/CSN fan (you might be a bit too young for that ?) . &nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not into comedy series - other than Curb Your Enthusiasm, which I can only take in small doses but which is HILARIOUS. &nbsp;</p> <p>LOVED Little Drummer Girl (I've read most of Le Carre's novels) and am hustling off after I finish typing to ask husband to find The Capture for us to watch. Thanks for that tip!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109809 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 13:26:33 +0000 nemosmom 2109809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I've been working crazy hours, so not much tv for me, but we've loved and The Goldbergs (love it because it has loads of references from 80's pop culture), and The Mandalorian.&nbsp; Old episodes of Anthony Bourdin's No Reservations are also pretty great.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/movie-and-tv-recommendations#post-2109787 Sun, 29 Mar 2020 08:40:26 +0000 Jenni NZ 2109787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh and I second Jane about “The Night Manager”.
