Netflix "Watch Instantly" - Page 1116 - Other Topics Forum - Discuss Pop Culture, Arts and Entertainment

That was really good. Glad I picked it back up. I tuned out because after episode 2, I was reading something about the show and I read a few comments that were basically “My favorite part of the episode was when Tanya got a big caught in her throat on the bike ride” and it turned me off of the show. Don’t really know why. But the rest of the season was damn good.

Not sure how you might watch it legit outside of UK, but A Spy Amongst Friends is a great mini series about Kim Philby and the whole cadre of upper crust English intelligence officers turned by the Soviets.

Guy Peirce and Damien Lewis are the leads and the quality that is evident in the casting is also present in writing etc and set design, does a a great job of showing 50s London etc.

The new doc "Don't pick up the phone" is out on Netflix. It's a crazy true story about a guy posing as a police officer calls many fast-food restaurants acting like he is investigating a theft and has managers strip searching female employees and other things.

Movie about it from 2012 called "Compliance" is on prime. It's good also.

So.

No.

Also, anyone who wants to get a life should avoid watching this film, it will negatively impact any such endeavour.

Ok sheep. I bet you’re a lasso fan huh. 98% rotten score lmfao. Most people are idiots. As evidenced by Ted lasso getting 98% and Barry getting 45%

You know a person is cool when their go-to insult is “sheep.”

Not available in Australia, looks like it’s getting a limited cinema release next month so maybe we get it on Netflix in late Jan or Feb.

My goal in life is trying to be cool online! Again, nice argument

Wasn’t trying to insult him, was trying to use the most accurate word to describe him. Also it is the first time I’ve used it on here. How is it a goto?

You are literally the only person who has vocalized a problem with me since my return. What is your problem

I know that its not the target audience of this forum but "Harry and Meghan" is so transparent in being an advertisement for these two that it takes away from their point that the royal family sucks which everyone already knows.

I wanted to hate Murderville on Netflix but I couldn't. Something about the alt-comedy vibe just turns me off but this show is solid and funny regardless.

Also on Netflix is Jexi - a quick 90 minute comedy about a smartphone becoming sentient and powerful while also being a total *******, starring Adam Devine. Simple and hilarious. I laughed the whole way through and I don't do that often.
