Dunno if it's been mentioned, but kind of enjoying You on Netflix.

Dinner in America, on Hulu. Good little film, very sweet. Cameo by David Yow.

Weird: The Al Yankovic Story

It was as fun/silly/stupid as one would hope. Nice thing to get for free after a crappy week.

We've been watching 1899 at my house. It's pretty cool, maybe not as cool as Dark but it's got an absorbing, suspenseful plot. Like all puzzle box shows it's hard to imagine the reveals will live up to the anticipation.

I hate the needle drop trend in shows though. I don't think it's edgy to throw a 60's/70's rock hit on over people in Victorian dress.

I love all of the European polyglot characters as much as the times that someone is expressing their torment in Cantonese or Polish and a sympathetic listener is tragically unable to understand.

Fleishman is in Trouble on hulu is pretty good so far. Depressing 'comedy', but well done. The "oh, good for you"s he gets after he tells people he's a doctor (or basically anything other than a money-chasing socialite) kills me.

Agree on all this, but I don't need to see it again.

Not surprisingly, Southside S3 is the funniest show of the year by a mile. Just keeps getting better. Inspired stuff

The Man Who Wanted to See It All - Netflix

A documentary about Heinz Stucke, a man who traveled the world continuously by bicycle for 51 years. Really really loved this.

This was great BTW. Not actually a comedy at all aside from some humorous points in early episodes.. got ahead of myself there. In fact the whole story flips, which I somewhat expected but not to the degree it did. Clever.

I'll still root for it but the story lines are getting a little kooky for me.
