And her wardrobe was beautiful, even though it was the '70's.&nbsp; I've also watched a couple of the early episodes of <b>Ally McBeal</b>...those miniskirt suits in the mid-90's! It's also still funny and smart, but fascinating to observe that it was just before cell phones became ubiquitous, so people are actually talking to each other at the local bar or coffee shop, not buried in devices. Also, there are various shots of the Boston skyline, and wow, has that city changed. Feeling super nostalgic... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2191581 Sat, 01 May 2021 15:09:19 +0000 JAileen 2191581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We’re watching The Five, on Netflix. &nbsp;Yes,it’s a mystery. &nbsp;It was written by Harlan Cobin. &nbsp;There are ten episodes and we’ve watched seven, so far. &nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2191230 Fri, 30 Apr 2021 12:19:28 +0000 Janet 2191230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, really enjoyed The Americans!&nbsp;</p> <p>I finished the first new Handmaid's Tale episode last night. Can't watch more than one episode of that at a time, although it's a stunningly good show.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2191066 Thu, 29 Apr 2021 20:34:10 +0000 rachylou 2191066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Americans was brutally good (!!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2190968 Thu, 29 Apr 2021 13:36:03 +0000 Kyle 2190968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you liked Homeland, you might enjoy The Americans. We just finished that series. Wonderful acting and storytelling. Plus amazing music.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2190961 Thu, 29 Apr 2021 13:16:55 +0000 Janet 2190961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES chewyspaghetti, I started the new episodes of Handmaid's Tale last night, but I was exhausted after a tough emotional day and got sleepy so I turned it off halfway through, so I could watch when I'm more alert.&nbsp;</p> <p>Mare of Easton (HBO) is Kate Winslet's new series. Very good so far, but quite dark. I love her.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2190775 Wed, 28 Apr 2021 21:12:31 +0000 chewyspaghetti 2190775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been watching Good Girls, This is Us, The Conners, and RuPaul's DragRace...now that new Handmaid's Tale has dropped, I'll be watching that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2190702 Wed, 28 Apr 2021 17:17:05 +0000 kellygirl 2190702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just finished season 2 of Trapped. LOVED it. Can't wait for season 3.&nbsp; Thanks for the recommendation! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2182541 Fri, 26 Mar 2021 15:25:58 +0000 Laurie 2182541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Neely - loved, loved Offspring! Also highly recommend it (early seasons reminded me of Scrubs, but then it developed into a more serious drama as it went on)</p> <p>Season 3 of Shtisel started yesterday on Netflix in the US - lovely Israeli series. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2181973 Wed, 24 Mar 2021 17:16:42 +0000 Neelie 2181973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you like quirly dramedies I recommend the Australian series <b>Offspring</b>.&nbsp; Seven seasons of about 12 episodes each&nbsp; On season 5 now and throroughly enjoying it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2181490 Mon, 22 Mar 2021 22:33:03 +0000 Janet 2181490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I started Resident Alien last night because I am an old-school Firefly fan and cannot resist the comedic timing of Alan Tudyk. The second episode improved on the first and there were some good laugh-out-loud moments. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2181429 Mon, 22 Mar 2021 18:29:26 +0000 MsMary 2181429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lupin was great! Can't wait for a new season!</p> <p>We watched Minari last night on Amazon and it was well worth the $19.99 rental. Also enjoyed The Trial of the Chicago Seven.</p> <p>And for you animation lovers, highly recommend A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon! (Yes, we are working our way through the Oscar nominees!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2181387 Mon, 22 Mar 2021 15:53:36 +0000 Jules 2181387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Watching "Lupin" on Netflix, enjoying the Paris setting (they are not holding back on featuring top touristy sites and beautiful luxe interiors), French language (with English subtitles), and that it's family friendly and in the heist/caper genre my daughter enjoys. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2181060 Sun, 21 Mar 2021 00:34:43 +0000 DonnaF 2181060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Midnight Diner on Netflix. Very, very Japanese IMHO so it is subtitled. I just wish I could understand the lyrics to the music. It’s a series in 23 minute segments.</p> <p>To continue the Asian theme, we’ve watched House of Ho and Bling Empire, two reality shows which shows how starved we are to see others who look like us only better. They are at best *B*s.</p> <p>We were entertained by Lovecraft Country. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2181047 Sat, 20 Mar 2021 23:44:14 +0000 Helena 2181047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh that's so cool Bella ... We just discovered her! Any of hers you'd recommend in particular? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180912 Sat, 20 Mar 2021 16:14:48 +0000 bella 2180912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Helena - I include some episodes of the Brittany Hughes documentaries as recommended material in my syllabi. She really does a good job of explaining the material in an accessible and relatable way.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180904 Sat, 20 Mar 2021 16:09:05 +0000 bella 2180904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Trial of the Chicago 7 is streaming on Netflix, and it is an Oscar nominee for Best Picture. along with a bunch of other categories. Sacha Baron Cohen also snatched a nomination for Best Supporting Actor.&nbsp;<br />It is a really really good movie, if you like political stuff.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180791 Sat, 20 Mar 2021 02:07:09 +0000 texasgal 2180791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>RunCarla- a few months back I read A Woman of No Importance (Sarah Purnell) about Virginia Hall (I remembered her wooden leg). Great book!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180717 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 22:16:25 +0000 Laurie 2180717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Janet - I like&nbsp;<i>Ted Lasso&nbsp;</i>but since we don't have a smart TV and you can't Chromecast from an Apple device, we've had to watch on an iPad, so our viewing has been sporadic. I really like it, and I've heard it compared to Schitt's Creek. I'm such a SC devotee, I can't go there quite, but it definitely is in the same genre. I think it's the best thing Jason Sudeikis has done.</p> <p>Lou and I really liked&nbsp;<i>Patriot -&nbsp;</i>the music aspect was so good. totally get the <i>In Bruges</i> comparison - yes! Wish there had been another season.</p> <p>Hulu subscribers -&nbsp;<i>In and Of Itself </i>is excellent and compelling.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180704 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 21:55:58 +0000 Anonymous 2180704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MsMary - no! Never heard of it but I’ll definitely check it out ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180673 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 20:28:50 +0000 anchie 2180673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Carla for the thread, I was looking for something new to watch this weekend.<br /> Last I watched was The One and Behind her eyes </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180648 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 19:36:14 +0000 RoseandJoan 2180648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm just about to finish Money Heist which has been brilliant in a rock and roll, full throttle sort of way. It's worth a watch if you don't mind subtitles.</p> <p>I'm excited for the return of Line of Duty this weekend too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix/page/2#post-2180643 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 19:30:21 +0000 Sloper 2180643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>DH and I basically live on Turner Classic Movies!&nbsp; We watch new movies and documentaries on HBO, and also were enthralled by The Investigation.&nbsp; And some things on Showtime too.</p> <p>A couple of years ago we really enjoyed Los Espookys.&nbsp; And I've gotten him hooked on Desus &amp; Mero.</p> <p>And Star Trek reruns of course. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix#post-2180601 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 17:50:11 +0000 Helena 2180601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My favourite Netflix watches this year have been documentaries:</p> <ul> <li>Ava Duvernay's 13 and When They See Us</li> <li>Bettany Hughes' Genius of the Ancient World and Genius of the Modern World</li> </ul> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix#post-2180573 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 16:48:39 +0000 Carla 2180573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>‘Escape to the Country’ is awesome! &nbsp;I love the ‘warts and all’ aspect of the show. &nbsp;So relaxed when contrasted with the makeover shows with all the super pristine interiors. &nbsp;DH is a devotee of ‘Hometown’ and I do find the tone of the show gentle and sweet. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix#post-2180567 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 16:32:37 +0000 rachylou 2180567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>High five Ms Mary!</p> <p>Joy - I am totally addicted to Escape to the Country!

Everything you mentioned plus time travel!! We loved it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix#post-2180526 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 14:28:00 +0000 Anonymous 2180526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We have been watching Escape to the Country. It has realtors in GB showing three houses to usually couples escaping from the city.<br /> Also Nadiya ( spelling?) Bakes, a British Bake-off Winner and yummy looking food, if you like food shows. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/on-tv-netflix#post-2180502 Fri, 19 Mar 2021 12:29:40 +0000 Synne 2180502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been watching series and documentaries in my own language. That has been refreshing and confidence boosting(?). It is actually quite rare to find quality entertainment outside Hollywood/anglosphere in the rest of the West. (Germany and France not included, not many other euros speak those languages either, but anyway).<br /> And I have seen the Allen/Farrow-docu from HBO. What a creepster...<br /> Edit: oh wow, read the earlier replies and you all are watching scandi-shows. Well well, there you have it, I am behind AGAIN, lol. </p>
