What's good on Netflix?

[lurchingbeast]

Lily Collins is so pretty that I can't stop watching.

Good thing she didn't inherit her father's looks.

The Haunting of Bly Manor was pretty good.

 

[craigh72]

Someone Feed Phil is good!

Jupiter's Legacy S1 is the shaggiest shaggy dog story I've watched in recent memory (finished 7 of 8 episodes).

I might actually be burned out on comic book adaptations.

I haven’t finished it yet, but The Serpent is good. Dude who plays Sobhraj nails the creepy psychopath role.

Cobra Kai is coming to Netflix soon.

I know the prevailing theory is that Daniel was the villain, but after watching the pilot, I disagree. It's the best kind of schadenfreude: the asshole jock who peaked in high school knows it, years later. If you're empathetic, you have a natural sympathy for him, but you shouldn't. That's what karma and comeuppance looks like.

Change my mind.

I don’t want to say anything in case spoilers. Have been watching on YouTube (thanks SiL) and it’s been a fun ride. Also rewatching the original on whiskey was a great decision after finishing the last season.

Another show that is coming back for a second season is Love, Death, and Robots. Fun times if you enjoy different animation styles.

Word? My sister suggested that, too. I'll give it a spin.

Also suggest. It's a really good show. Wifey liked it a lot as well.

I just finished watching American Murder: the Family Next Door, one of Netflix's true crime docus. Not bad, an easy watch.

Spoiler

Unfortunately, an easy guess as well. I thought there would be a twist, but the moment I saw that the husband was shredded, I knew he killed her. The neighbor at the beginning even calls it, too.

Finished it today. Definite recommendation.

Follow-up, guess I was not alone.

Jupiter's Legacy is done at Netflix but Mark Millar's TV reign will continue

Netflix has allowed the cast contracts for Josh Duhamel and its other Jupiter's Legacy stars to expire, but it's still working with Mark Millar on an adaptation of his Supercrooks book.

They're staying in the same universe but will not continue this particular series. Too bad -- I read all 4 volumes of Jupiter's Legacy (the rebranded version that was just published) and really enjoyed it. Could have been a great show. Season 1 missed an opportunity.

I’m on Ep5, and I’m enjoying it. Does seem very scattered.

I could never get past the bad wigs. We watched the first episode and didn't feel compelled to watch any more.

Bo Burnham's Inside hurt me

Bo Burnham's Inside hurt me

It's brilliant

Yeah, that’s some next level shit. Not at all what I expected.

Sophie: A Murder in West Cork was very compelling. Only three episodes, so not a big commitment either.
