  • Marco Polo: One Hundred Eyes

    ,

    Marco Polo is one of those Netflix series I’ve been meaning to watch for what feels like forever, and simply haven’t gotten around to it. I saw that there was a new half-hour special that popped up – it’s in part to tease the upcoming second season – and so I decided to watch it.…

  • Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    I watched the first two seasons of this a while back (when I was still in Japan), and recently decided to jump back in with season 3, and I gotta say that I’m really enjoying it, much more than I remembered. I’m sure it’s in part because of my current enthusiasm for all things Star…

  • Parks and Recreation

    ,

    I used to really like this show, but then stopped following it by the end of season 5 for no special reason. This past year I’ve been watching season 6 on Netflix, episodes here and there, and then last night finished off the season by watching the last 4-5 in a row. I gotta say…

  • F Is for Family

    I’m aware of Bill Burr, having seen him on talk shows and the like, but I’m not really familiar with his style of comedy, so didn’t know what to expect from this new animated series that he created for Netflix. It debuted the other day, and I watched the first episode, and I liked it.…

  • A Very Murray Christmas

    —

    ,

    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…

  • Anthony Jeselnik: Thoughts and Prayers

    —

    ,

    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…

  • Jessica Jones

    —

    ,

    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…

  • The Comeback Kid

    —

    ,

    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…
