Netflix ouch!

It's a Hollywood NC/CA fusion.

It's always about the compromise that artistes have to make with the producers/money

John from Cincinnati springs to mind.

The John B kid in the show sports a Bad Brains T-shirt.
As a parent, I recommend maximum exposure to Bad Brains amongst the youth of today.

My girlfriend is hooked on Terrace House on Netflix. It's a Japanese reality show that I think was pretty popular there. It's like the exact opposite of what I would normally watch but the cultural differences were interesting and the commentary is really clever and funny and I'm ashamed to admit I got totally sucked in.

Terrace house is really fun and interesting, maybe because the people aren't steaming piles of human garbage. The panel discussions are the best part.

Beforeigners on HBO was a good

For some reason I can never get into any scripted Netflix Originals...probably because they're 90% crap

We ended Up pretty much enjoying outer banks. Sure it had some cringe worthy lines and moments but then I would be surprised by some actual acting or excitement. FWIW I’m not a huge TV glutton, usually just the “big shows” for an hour or two at night, but I enjoyed what otherwise would have been just another Sunday in bizarro-land watching the show. As far as the geographical and other mash ups, only a relatively small number of people would even notice or care about the licenses taken. It’s beautiful scenery, beautiful people, some action, and even a few bits here and there of sharp and/or funny dialogue. what do you think OneWorld- do they get a second season once america Is open again?

Yeah - I think a second season's a given. They left it so perfectly open for that. The Bahamas, a murderous young cokehead, young love, boats, Bad Brains, surfing. What more do you need? BTW. We had a good swell this past weekend. Coincided with reopened beaches. Don't think I've ever seen more high school and college aged learners (male and female). I partially blame this show.

we've been watching The Last Dance via Netflix. i'm not a pro basketball fan at all - have only a distant awareness of the 90's Michael Jordan era....so i'm surprised at how engaging it all is. it's been very enjoyable.

Surf is up all week here, with howling side shore winds until Thursday

I guess we shouldn't head south into the tropical storm

to be clear, it is a Netflix production that I am obtaining from elsewhere on the internet. my son tells me he can't see it on Netflix coz it's not on in the US yet but my Brazzo in-laws are watching it on Netflix. ymmv.

Have enjoyed Fauda. As long as you can deal with sub-titles.

My Israeli boss for 20 years up to my retirement was once the Director of Operations for Shin Bet (until the Bus 300 incident). The Fauda series seems close to some of my experiences/observations. You might enjoy the book Every Spy a Prince, lot’s of “eye opening” antidotal stories...

PEAKY FUCKIN BLINDERS

Interesting, will have to check that out. Director of Operations for Shin Bet, wow, can only imagine the stories!
