  • Reggie Watts: Spatial

    At the extreme opposite end of that Michael Che comedy special is the new Reggie Watts special – called Spatial – also just released on Netflix. I’ve been a pretty big fan of Watts, and know what to expect from him – awkward laughs, weirdness, musical interludes, etc. This is what you get here, but…

  • Michael Che Matters

    I really like Michael Che – I got to see him perform live last year at the Just for Laughs festival, and of course enjoy him every week on SNL’s “Weekend Update.” I was pretty happy to see a comedy special by him pop up on Netflix last week, and I’m happy to say I…

  • Pacific Heat

    This popped up on Netflix last week, an Archer-like from Australia. I watched the first 2 episodes, and gotta say it’s pretty damn funny – at first I felt a bit uneasy about the mocking Asian accents, but you eventually get that they’re making fun of that stereotype. I still haven’t gotten around to watching…

  • Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories

    I’ve been meaning to mention this series for a while now, that I’ve really enjoyed on Netflix. Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories is a wonderful series that sees a rotating cast of characters (with a few regulars, and fun cameos by Jo Odagiri) as they pop up at a bar/diner that only opens from midnight to…

  • Black Mirror (Season 3)

    I’ve only watched the first episode so far of this new season (produced for Netflix), and man, it certainly didn’t pull any punches. Felt like a proper horror story for the entire thing, and it never looked like it was going to let up. But that ending was pretty satisfying. Can’t wait to watch the…

  • The Super Dimension Fortress Macross

    I recently noticed that the Robotech series from the 80s was added to Netflix (in Canada), and so I thought I’d start watching it. I have memories of really liking the series back when I was kid, but also that I had barely watched any of it, probably because it was only available on cable,…

  • Luke Cage

    I’m only 5 episodes in (just started watching the 6th one), and I gotta say that so far I’m enjoying this show way more than the other Netflix Marvel series, except maybe for the first season of Daredevil. I really didn’t like Jessica Jones, and so that already made me feel less than excited about…

  • Don’t Trust the B in Apartment 23

    I’d heard good things about this show, but hadn’t really bothered to check it out until now, since I noticed that it had popped up on Netflix. I watched the first few episodes of season 1 earlier today, and wow, I’m absolutely in love with it. It’s just way more crazy than I was expecting,…

  • Louis C.K.: Live at the Comedy Store

    I love Louis C.K. so damn much, no matter what he does, and some of the most enjoyable stand-up routines I’ve ever seen were in of his past specials. I just watched this – it’s now available on Netflix – and was surprised that I felt a bit disappointed. Don’t get me wrong, I still…
