  • Marco Polo (Season 2)

    As I mentioned not too long ago, I finally got around to watching season 1 of Marco Polo, and now I’m halfway through season 2. Like I said then, I’ve really come to enjoy this show, and I’m a bit bummed that we won’t be getting any more seasons.

  • Crazyhead

    I recently watched this with some friends at work during lunch time (we’d watch an episode every day), and it made for some really fun watching. Yes, it’s pretty much a British take on Buffy, but it still feels like its own thing, and was definitely even more darkly funny. I’d love to get another…

  • Marco Polo (Season 1)

    I watched the first episode of this Netflix series quite a while ago, around the time it came out, and remember thinking it was alright, and I was planning on watching more, but never got around to it. Following my recent HK film viewing spree, I was reminded of this series, and so dived back…

  • Bojack Horseman Christmas Special: Sabrina’s Christmas Wish

    I just fell on this last night, a couple of hours before the end of Christmas, and I’m glad I watched it. It’s a really great parody of the type of Christmas episodes you’d see on sitcoms in the 80s (think Full House and Family Matters), and it reminds me that I really do need…

  • The OA

    I’m only a couple of episodes in, but so far I’m very pleasantly surprised by The OA. I hadn’t heard anything about this until a few days before it was released on Netflix last week, and found the trailer to be quite intriguing. What I’m seeing so far is still wrapped in mystery – which…

  • Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency

    I was interested by this series when I first heard about it – I like Douglas Adams (although I’ve only read his Hitchhiker’s stuff), and I generally enjoy the stuff that Elijah Wood is in – and so was happy to see it pop up on Netflix (as a Netflix Original here in Canada). I’ve…

  • 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…
