Could care less about Zootopia - that was absolute hot garbage.

But Archer, that's just a sin to remove that show. :(

There are a couple on that list I have never watched and should. The early Pacino flick being one.

And I definitely need to rewatch Life Aquatic.

BanzaiCat · February 25, 2018, 12:45:58 PM

Never saw Life Aquatic. At least, not yet.

Meh, I guess it doesn't matter if Netflix drops these - there's other outlets out there.

Hulu has a surprising number of movie as well. It's not just TV series.

True, but I have Netflix so it's nice to know what is coming and going. The Times is good at picking out some gems. I had never even heard of the Brando movie.

I just started watching, "The Frankenstein Chronicles" last night. Good series so far starring Sean 'Boromir' Bean in 1825 London. Not a lot of action but a good mystery with great period scenes and a plot that has some surprises.

I saw that in the queue the other day. Will have to check it out.

Staggerwing · February 25, 2018, 03:52:57 PM

I've got that one saved as well.

Mirth, for a really early heroin junkie drama catch 'The Man with the Golden Arm' staring Frank Sinatra as a jazz-player in the early 50's who gets hooked.

Interesting. I'll look for it.

If you want to soil your drawers watch Veronica on Netflix. I just did both.

If you want to get your blood pressure up, check out LA 92, a National Geographic doc on the Rodney King LA riots. I thought it was going to be a bit on the SJW-side but it turned out to portray everyone in a position of power in LA at the time in an equally terrible light.

Anyone watching Flint Town on Netflix? Doc on the Flint MI Police. On Episode 3 of 8 now and they are very good. If you watch, keep a look out for Officer Belasco (SP?) :)

I saw that pop up and made a mental note to watch it eventually. I like docs if they're realistic and not pandering to any one side or viewpoint. If you're recommending it I'll move it up now that Archer is gone. >:(
