    Really didn’t know what to expect from this thing, other than I was going in thinking it was one hell of a weird thing for Netflix to produce – and I’m not very Christmas-y, or into Christmas specials. But hey, I like Murray, I like weird things, and when I learned that it was directed…

    Watching this Netflix stand-up special was my first taste of his comedy – I am aware of him as a comedian, but I’m not quite sure from where, possibly from the WTF podcast. I’ll say that I didn’t find this to be laugh-out-loud funny like I did John Mulaney’s special, but after a bit of…

    I’m now on episode 6 of this series, and I’m still not quite sure if I really like it or not. I mean, the fact that I’m still watching it must mean that I’m finding some sort of enjoyment or satisfaction out of the show, but I can’t help but feel unsatisfied throughout. The highlights…

    All I know of John Mulaney is that he was a writer on SNL (and was responsible for the Stefon bits) and that after he left that show he had a short-lived sitcom that wasn’t considered very good, but I’d heard good things about his new Netflix comedy special, The Comeback Kid, and so decided…

    Even though I never watched it back in the day, I know that Mr. Show is considered a true classic of comedy, and so was pretty excited to see this new follow-up series on Netflix – especially since I really do love both Bob and David in whatever I have seen them in. But after…

    This is absolutely one of the best series to come out of Netflix. Even though I quite like Aziz Ansari (I loved Parks and Recreation), I wasn’t necessarily sold on his new series from the get-go, and wasn’t even really feeling it while watching the first episode. But by episode 2 I was in, and…

    This documentary about Ghibli is currently on Netflix, and so don’t miss out. Really fantastic look at the inner workings of the studio, in a very natural and personal way, that tracks them as they were working on the latest two film releases. Enjoyed this immensely.

    I’d been wanting to watch this since it first came out, and I’ve finally gotten around to it and I’m really loving it – definitely one of my favorite shows this year. I’m about halfway through the season, and it just feels like it keeps getting better and better. Can’t recommend it enough, and I…
