  • Cyborg 009: The Call of Justice

    —

    ,

    Although I’ve heard of the franchise, I’ve never actually read or watched any Cyborg 009. I saw that a new series just debuted on Netflix, and so decided to watch the first episode. So far so good — the episode does a good job of setting up the whole thing, so I don’t feel like…

  • Abstract: The Art of Design

    —

    I was quite looking forward to watching this documentary series that just debuted on Netflix this weekend, following the tease from Scott Dadich in the latest issue of Wired (Dadich is Executive Producer on the series). I watched the first episode, covering one of my favorite illustrators, Christoph Niemann. It’s really well done, with slick…

  • Legion

    —

    This show really caught me by surprise. I was curious to check it out — the cast is pretty decent — but from that first episode, I was wowed by how dark and crazy and weird this show is. The music used throughout is fantastic too — got chills when they used that Jane’s Addiction…

  • Riverdale

    I didn’t think I’d watch this series — although I was kinda interested when I heard it had a Twin Peaks influence, I didn’t think I wanted to watch an Archie show. But it popped up on Netflix (here in Canada), and so I thought it might be fun to watch with my wife (who…

  • Medici: Masters of Florence

    For our lunch time “Watch Club” at work, after we got done watching Crazyhead, we moved on to this, and so far it’s been pretty good (we’ve watched the first 4 episodes of 8). It’s a pretty decent story, with a good cast, and hey, who doesn’t like watching Robb Stark. The only thing that…

  • 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…
