Is it good? I never really got into the first part but I probably could have given it more of a chance.

I reallllly liked it! But then I really love true crime stuff in general and I just got sucked into the story.

Our whole family has just started watching "The Good Place" on Neflix.  About a woman who goes to heaven only to find that she was sent there by mistake.  Just adult enough to keep the kid's interest but overall pretty wholesome.  And funny.

We’re watching the new season of that as well. That’s so good too!

Great. I do too usually so I'll give it another go from the beginning.  :)

Finished Making a Murderer this morning..................................  :-X

I don't know why I'm punishing myself but attempting to watch the new Sabrina series even though I know it's not going to be good....like...at all.

I've just finished season 3 of Man in the High Castle, and I'm literally just about to check the new Sabrina out... no idea what it'll be like, but we'll see.

I can't say it looks particularly good. But it's something I KNOW my husband won't want to watch so I can watch it by myself and I can't resist at least trying it. So far it's just as meh as I've imagined.

I've just finished the first episode... not sure what to think of it, really.

I quite like that half the actors are British (or Australian) though, and that Richard Coyle is in it (who I loved in Coupling).

I will probably watch 2 episodes to decide if I want to watch more (I give everything two episodes unless I physically can't get through 1). It's one of those shows that I think I would be fine to have on in the background as background noise vs something I would actively wanting to devote my whole attention to. Not totally made my mind up yet either. I honestly don;t like the constant blurry shots. I imagine it's probably for some specific or artistic reason, but I can't stand it (not sure if you noticed it too)

Yeah, I did notice. It must be a conscious choice, but it does make it difficult to watch those scenes.

Hubby and I are going to give it a try too.
The usual. American girl meets British guy. They fall into like, then into love. Then there was the big decision. The American traveled across the pond to join the Brit. And life was never the same again.

It's a proper group effort now! lol

Yeah it has to be a conscious choice...but I don't get why as I don't see it really adding anything positive to the shots, just an attempt at being "artsy" and it's all I can focus on...it's not even a one-off, it's a constant.

I'm still watching it even though I'm not really into it. Husband mentioned to me today "Oh you're watching Sabrina?" and I said "yeah it's crap". He rightly asked why I was still watching it....I had no real reason beyond "it's something?".

We're starting to worry about The Good Place and the direction it's going...we still absolutely love it and it makes us laugh, but we're worried that we can't figure out where the show is going to go from  the episode we're at now. We just don't want to see it get backed into a corner to die a slow and painful death because it's still SOO good. Hoping they manage to keep salvaging the storyline.

I do feel like I accomplished watching so much as we also finished American Vandal this weekend.
