Binge Watching Series Recommendations

[Bob Ross]

We just started Season 1 of Severance last night, watched the first two episodes. I am honestly surprised that a show that is so weird (not that there's anything wrong with that) is as popular as it apparently is! What's especially suprising is that my wife is interested, 'cuz she normally hates "weird" when it comes to TV or movies. I'm more fascinated than engaged at this point, but we'll almost certainly stick with it.

As far as lighter fare goes: we binge-watched the entire first seasons of FUBAR and Running Point and loved both of them. Clever comedies that don't pander to their audience and that have much-better-than-decent writing and acting. Highly recommended. I believe there is a Season 2 of FUBAR though not sure if it's started streaming yet. No word on whether Running Point will get a S2.

For the record I loved season one of Severance.

I don't because I am afraid it is a documentary.

I posted about being put to sleep by Severance because I thought maybe there was a subliminal experiment going on.

I finished Ted Lasso last night, so I guess I'm a little behind on the times. I am almost through Masters of the Air. My son is enjoying Severance but I'll wait.

Started Season 2 and I see what you mean. Could have been the Manhattan I was drinking but the first 2 episodes had my eyelids getting very heavy. Hoping things pick up in episode 3.

If anyone goes for the British period police dramas, 'George Gently' is a great series, set in 1960s Northumberland.

It's a good watch.
