Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

Polar is hot garbage. Really nasty and ugly.

Maybe the next 'Mads Mikkelsen in the Frozen North' film will be better...

it's called Polar but it takes place in... Montana

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before but please watch Derry Girls - it's not groundbreaking in any way but it's just a very well done comedy about a group of teen girls (and one boy) in Derry during the troubles. If you happened to attend a Catholic high school in the 90s like I did then you'll love it even more.

I think it was talked about in the UK comedy thread when it came out on Channel 4? Anyway, it's great yeah. Nice to see it getting a wider audience

i have it on my watchlist, keep meaning to check it out

Second series on in the spring.

I know, I can't wait! The ending of the last ep was so touching and sweet and I'm excited to see what they do with Clare's big reveal in the next season.

Just started Derry Girls — pretty hilarious! One of the better comedies I've seen in a while, I think?

Derry Girls is also on my list! Going to finish off a couple of other series first.

they've got their own mural now too

derry girls is great - the holiday episode is all-time

Ha!

Just started watching it. Really funny.

The new season of Punisher is super silly. I totally have brought up Remo Williams and Jean Claude while watching.

Did we rave about Sex Education yet?

There was a "fite!" above where some people thought it exploitive after seeing one episode. We loved it.

anyone watch abducted in plain sight yet? cos uhhhhhhhh ........... wtfffffffffffffffffff

right???

I totally have brought up Remo Williams

okay now you've got my attention

It's more that the actors are similar and some fight scenes are super 80s.

right???

every single 15-20 minutes that goes by you get a whole new head explosion. layers and layers of wtf-ness. havent stopped thinking about it since i watched it last week. half the time just thinking to myself that it all must be fiction, half the time just shaking my head in disgust.

Did we rave about Sex Education yet?

wtf is up w the parents in abducted

god there's no way i can watch that

jim just power through it

it is extremely fucked

i read the story behind it and what the actual fuck

I just cant believe those parents agreed to go on camera and air out their complete ineptitude and idiocy

Abducted in Plain Sight - I’m literally only 30% of the way thru and this is already the most bonkers and gross story I’ve ever heard

It was so nuts. I know it was a different time then and I think they mentioned very briefly at some point that they were all LDS but my God those parents were fucking idiots.

really enjoying RUSSIAN DOLL

Watching that as soon as work is over!

yeah, looking forward to it.

It's getting really good reviews so have high hopes

i watched the whole thing. i loved it. made me miss the new york of PARTY GIRL in a big way even though it’s set in the now

is it a mini or does it look to be ongoing?

haven’t seen it but: apparently has a full-on conclusion but has also been recommissioned

Sex Education renewed for 2nd season!

just watched the school dance episode and at the end said "damn this is one really fantastic tv show"

I see a sliver of a way Russian Doll could go for a S2, but tbqh I'm not sure I like any of the potential options. Perfect as is.

very good use of chloe sevigny

also metatextually fascinating to see Sevigny as Lyonne's mother

Sex Education renewed for 2nd season!

Russian Doll is fantastic

Velvet Buzzsaw was very underwhelming.

russian doll amazing. natasha lyonne deserves many awards.

love Russian Doll! mr Veg watched 2 eps and was underwhelmed “she’s dumb and she says stupid shit” ... more bingeing for me!!

and i love Brendan Sexton III

I liked Russian Doll a lot though Netflix and its UI kinda stepped on the final shot

Lyonne is a great example of someone with no range but a fantastic presence just doing her thing
