What movie or show (regardless of release) have you watched recently that you enjoyed?

I'm usually hard to please but most recently I've been watching Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown and it's just an incredible show. I'm always anticipating a great episode every time I start. From what I've seen so far, Bourdain just comes at each place he explores with humility and doesn't impose his own politics to those he encounters. You think when he visits Houston or West Virginia he'll start talking shit but he doesn't

I've been rewatching Burn Notice. Such a great show.

I picked the New Girl back up after previously stopping at season 3. It's fine, very good comfort watch and makes for great background noise.

Wife and I have been burning through Ozark, that's a good show.

 

[The Real Paddington]

I've recently worked my way through Search Party. Found it to be great and an easy binge.

I watched Magic Mike last weekend and very much enjoyed it. I enjoyed most of the cast quite a like but was bummed to see the main actress hasn't done much. I've no interest in the sequel though, between not hearing anything good about it and the fact it seems like it undoes a lot of this movie.

I just watched The Thin Man for the first time. It's a fun old mystery comedy. I really enjoyed it. The lead actor and actress are great.

 

[Obi Wan Jabroni]

I binged The Kingdom on Netflix because I like Frank Grillo. Pretty decent little MMA-themed show with a solid cast.

Show ends really abruptly however, which is a drag.

Same! And with S4 having just started it was the perfect time to get into the show. Binged the first 3 seasons over a weekend...I couldn't stop myself, the show's structure is impeccable.

I also just binged all of Veep. Absolutely hilarious and quite possibly the most vulgar show I've ever seen. The jokes are constant and belly-laugh funny. Highly recommend!

Over new years, I watched the old MTV show Clone High. It was really good.

I was kinda meh on Disenchanted after two seasons but I thoroughly enjoyed season 3.

Recently watched.

Silence of the lambs (been years since I saw it last, still amazing)
Sinister - first time, pretty good. Wasn't that scary.
Final destination 1 - 4 (4 is trash, the rest are ok)
The call (Korean movie)
Train to Busan (rewatched)

Started justified a week or so ago, enjoying it, mainly because of Olyphant. Up to season 2 episode 12

I've been introducing my wife to the filmography of Pedro Almodóvar and rewatching some of his classics with her and loving every single one. He's made plenty of masterpieces. Women at the verge of a nervous breakdown, Everything about my mother, Talk to her... All masterpieces.

 

[Lightning Count]

Rewatching Batman Beyond it's so damn good, it deserves a proper game so much.

 

[Croc Man]

The best drama I've watched since Covid hit was Banshee. Ultra violent craziness, trouble is unarmed combat in basically anything else isn't the same now. White supremisists being one of the main villains made it very relevant too.

So I've gone for more non fiction, watching old Michael Palin travel shows being the highlight. It was made 30 years ago so much of what he's visiting has changed massively and in some cases doesn't even exist anymore. Really works as a glimpse of another time. Although I suppose that's true of race across the world and that was made in 2019.

Richard Osman's house of games might be the best gameshow ever too, certainly most suited to me.

My wife and I have been watching 30 Coins. That show is nuts.

I watched the first season of Snowpiercer. It wasn't bad. Looking forward to season 2 starting Monday.
