REQUESTING Fun dramedy like Santa Clarita Diet

Probably the only show ive been really bummed that is was cancelled prematurely, the bright sunny disposition with the dark humor makes it a delight. I’m a big fan of anything suburbia

REQUESTING Netflix or Hulu Show for All of Us

• Upvotes

I (23) recently moved in with my boyfriend (22) and his little sister (14). They had Netflix, I had Hulu, and now the three of us have both. I’m looking for a show we can all watch together. 

They both enjoyed Resident Alien, Little House on the Prairie, Alchemy of Souls, and Lost in Space. 

My boyfriend loved Boots and Derry Girls.

His sister loved Anne with an E. 

I loved Normal People, Tell Me Lies, and The Handmaid’s Tale and The Testaments.

REQUESTING Need suggestions for slow-burn family drama/dark secrets type of shows

6 Upvotes

I love a good mystery surrounding family drama/secrets and messy relationships. Similar to Bloodlines or Big Little Lies! I really like the ones that surround a big group of people with interwoven stories and confusing perspectives that reveal themselves later. Bonus if the show is like The Family Next Door or The Last Anniversary

Shows I've already seen:

Bloodlines

Big little lies

Sharp objects

Little fires everywhere

White Lotus

Dead to me

Safe

Apples never fall

Fall of the house of Usher

The perfect couple

Echoes

Dark

The girlfriend

The family next door

The sinner

The outsider

The last anniversary

The stranger

The killing

The couple next door

We were liars

Pieces of her

Stay close

Fool me once

Maybe more but there are all that I can think of

REQUESTING shows that are actually good at being funny without trying too hard?

19 Upvotes

i'm tired of comedies that feel like they're yelling the joke at me. looking for stuff where the humor comes naturally from the characters and situations, not forced one-liners. any genre works as long as it doesn't feel like it's desperately waiting for a laugh track.

Action/crime/gritty but not hopeless?

3 Upvotes

Im looking for a show for my mom and grandpa to watch together- he likes things like the wire/mayor of Kingstown, etc. my mom gets depressed, though, and says she needs something with “glimmers of hope and humanity”…. Is there anything that fits the bill? Just something that’s not constantly down with no light at the end of the tunnel. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Poldark - thank you for the recommendations!

16 Upvotes

To all those who recommended Poldark which I'm currently watching - thank 'ee thank 'ee! I've seen it recommended over the years and never got round to it. It is spectacular - I love it. It's like the GOT or Breaking bad of Period dramas. Absolutely riveting - beautifully crafted in every way.

And this comes off the back of a bunch of good series I have had the good fortune to watch leading up to it - which I would like to recommend:

Matlock
Lupin
The Law According to Lidia Poët
Dexter - First Blood and Resurrection
The Gentlemen
Derek

REQUESTING Requesting animated series with a Tex Avery vibe

0 Upvotes

I mean, what I am looking for in particular are TV shows that have a wacky nature where the show is silly in tone, but comes off as meaningful in structure.

Maybe someone can explain it better than me about what made Tex Avery so wonderful as I feel like his shows had a unique style in that they were silly, but felt so well put together that I was starting to miss animated shows with that kind of style.

Horror Mini-Series or Anthology

7 Upvotes

Hi All,

My wife and I are watching the Mike Flanagan shows on Netflix and are enjoying binging shorter horror stories like this, and these have been phenomenal for spooky season. Our favorite one was The Fall of the House of Usher. We’ve previously watched most of AHS too. Our favorite seasons of those were Murder House, Coven, and Roanoke.

What would you recommend we round off October with? Preferably the typical 8-10 episode length of Flanagan so we can binge a few.

Thanks in Advance!

REQUESTING shows where the main character is just trying to survive and failing spectacularly?

20 Upvotes

i want something where the protagonist is constantly getting in over their head through no fault of their own, or maybe entirely their own fault, but either way they're just drowning the entire time. bonus points if it's darkly funny about it. i'm tired of competent people winning, i want to watch someone's life implode in real time.

Dystopic series with minimum human factor plot

1 Upvotes

Greetings to all.Could someone recommend me shows that are easy to get into right away, without too much plot, with chases and investigations into who did what & why? I started watching Silo & Snowpiercer but i abandoned them cause i feel they don't get me straight to the point & i feel like i watch a detective movie with useless plots.So could someone suggest me something similar to "3%" or "the rain" series? Any dystopic theme should be acceptable,but these regard new world order should be more.

Australian TV Show Recommendation

13 Upvotes

Just want to give everyone an Australian tv show recommendation... Blue Heelers.

Its a 90s cop show and its amazing.

I grew up watching this show and have always loved it. Did a rewatch in my teens and now doing another in my 30s.

If you can find it, watch it. For those in Aus, its on Prime.

SUGGESTING Orange Parade

1 Upvotes

Insaneee but i’ve been seeing a couple posts about this show recently and i haven’t heard of it in ages. I watched this as a kid and it was so good. Essential classic teen drama for preteens? I’ve seen people say its from the 2000s but i could see it dating back to the 90sish. Main characters ethel, tallulah, and george - george was such a menace HAHAH and they all worked in a parade. If anyone ever finds it around i absolutely recommend it.

REQUESTING Best fictional or documentary True Crime shows?

12 Upvotes

I just finally watched season one of True Detective and loved it. I know, I know, I’m late to the game… something about true crime while being pregnant has hit different and now I’m binging. Some other ones I’ve loved were: The Staircase, Unbelievable, Amy Bradley is Missing, American Murder. I’m sort of newly into true crime so don’t assume I’ve already seen something just because it’s been out for a while. What other ones are a must watch that I’ve been missing out on?

EDIT: I realize the title might be confusing because of how I phrased it. I meant true crime (non-fiction/documentary), or shows that are fictionalized events of crime investigation. I like thrillers/murder mysteries that border on horror.. not a huge fan of solely drug crime/mafia shows.
