It's a B movie but enjoyable still. I'm watching it on Hulu.

Cheer Camp Killer (TV Movie 2020) - IMDb

The Chosen

https://watch.angelstudios.com/thechosen/watch

I came across this on instagram and the tv production team was saying it's only available via mobile(free) but I was able to find it directly from the film studio website in my pc browser(free - no sign up)

This is about the personal life of Jesus, and getting to know the people he met. It's done very well. I'm already on the 2nd season but sadly, I see there are only 2 seasons.

I hope they get funded for a 3rd season, if that is their goal.

Netflix Original Series: Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events 

https://www.netflix.com/title/80050008

This has 3 seasons and it's true to the books, the storyline is very tight with the books. It feels like the story just drags on but I always find myself enjoying each episode. I just started the final season, season 3.

2 cult classic movies have come to roost on Netflix and I'm very excited about it! Well 3, but I already watched Ghost(https://www.netflix.com/title/60010395). So good!

The other 2 are Jim Henson's Labyrinth(https://www.netflix.com/title/680020) and Titanic(https://www.netflix.com/vi/title/1181461)

I'll be watching the latter very soon.

It is so different from the book! 

[Kytteh Wytchwood]

After watching Cheer Camp Killer, which turned out better than I thought it would, I veered off to watch a romantic movie.

I've stopped watching it for a little bit. I tend to pause a movie to watch something else or just do something else and then come back to it.

It's called, The Vow, and it's on Hulu.

Hulu | The Vow Movie(drama and romance)

It's a very old story line, used in many other romantic movies, of years past. There is a tragedy and then you are watching how they met, and their good memories of getting to know each other and the time they spent together.

This type of story line can get old, which is why I put it on hold but I am curious how the story unfolds.

I hope they put in the bad times too, not just putting a shine on only happy moments. Maybe I'll even be surprised with a plot twist, but this is Hulu, not Netflix.

Although that is what I do like about Hulu, that it has a softer approach in a lot of its content, than with Netflix. A lot of wholesome content but it also has its drama and horror, too.

I love the actress though. I've seen her in a lot of movies and she is awesome, not to mention she has a unique look to her face, which makes her even more pretty to me. Also the way she expresses through her face, in each film I have seen her in, is great.

I've found something cute that can relate to the incoming Halloween. ~ Then... I went down the rabbit hole and for an hour or two I watched cute things like this one below, to relax. Time well spent.

Quote

Jangle is a spirit of Halloween, Jingle is a spirit of Christmas! What happens when they meet and share with each other the fun festive customs of their holidays? Perhaps they have more in common then they expect! This short was inspired by the fact these two holidays often get pit against each other, but they can both be so much fun in their own similar ways, and I wanted to make something to mend my relationship with my favorite parts of two very impactful holidays in my life! I wanted to celebrate them both!

It's possibly the worst Top 100 list ever compiled. Fleabag is a cute comedy, but Top 5 material?

A poll like this should have been open to the public, the results are seriously skewed when 'TV Experts' are voting on a limited selection of shows.

Where was Rome, and Spartacus? And I can understand shows like Banshee, The Boys, Invincible and Gangs of London are on the violent side, but they're highly recommended(by me!). Overall only 8 non-English shows were featured in this list, all from the EU as it appears Japanese and Korean TV does not exist.

I've only seen 5 of these and only one in the top 60. I agree that a lot of shows are missing.  The good thing is that now that I'm using streaming services instead of just the 4 networks, I can choose from a much wider variety and find some international gems.

The only ones I've seen:

The Good Place, Lost, Stranger Things, Steven Universe, Avatar the Last Airbender

I really didn't get Fleabag at all. Tried several times to watch that one, but nope, not for me. Or The Detectorists, although the music might have swung that one for some people. 

Handmaid's Tale I would have put up there in the Top 20, but I'm with Cinnamon, I have only watched a few that are on that list. 

And where is Still Game? Marvellously un-PC Scottish comedy, one of the BBC's best kept secrets - IMO! 

And Better Things, that to me was darkly humorous. I've just finished binge watching the entire series again via iPlayer.

The Good Place was amazing, fast-paced, hilarious, very different.

Agree should have been public vote i've only seen the following

4          Fleabag (2016-2019) - Good but not worth the top 5
9          The Office (UK) (2001-2003) - I never got what was so good about it
27        Line of Duty (2012-2021) - Didn't really enjoy having to watch it though would have put it higher
42        Peep Show (2003-2015) - Once i got in to it i looked forward to the next episode
48        Inside No 9 (2014-) - One of the best things i've seen on TV was an episode of this
56        The Big Bang Theory (2007-2019) - Not bad wouldn't go out of my way to watch it
64        Detectorists (2014-2017) - Probably the best series i've seen would have put it at No. 1 based though not filmed very locally to me

I'm watching whatever episodes are on YouTube.
