GOOD on Netflix STREAMING?

[weirdboy]

Killing Episodes eh? Interesting.

The Killing


not Killing Episodes

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Yes, The Killing. It's based on a hugely popular Danish series, but has not been "Americanized" in the usual sense of the word. It has been adapted very well and retains a distinct identity of it's own. No car chases, cops yelling freeze! and all that stuff.
It focuses as much on the impact of a murder on the family and people involved as it does the crime itself. I couldn't guess who did it, and I thought the ending, in particular was truly remarkable.

A friend at work got me into Coupling, its a british sitcom, freaking hilarious. Also just started watching BBCs Sherlock, the show really sucks you in.

Coupling was very good until the last season when the Welsh guy left. It just wasn't the same without a sheep shagger.

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Ramseys Kitchen Nightmare is a good laugh.

That show gives me the occasional chuckle. This season they did a place in our town, the Mill St Bistro. They took 2 episodes on it because the owner was such an over the top ******.

Anyways, there was me and wifey scanning the diners to see if we spotted anyone we knew.....Nope.....Nope.....Nope......Boom! The next door neigbor and her kids being interviewed!!...Oh how we laughed at them! .........Sigh, we need a life.

I watched God Bless America the other day and was plesantly surprised. Of course I do share the main characters hate for 'reality' pop culture.

Are you talking about the US or British version? I cook myself and watching this (the British one) makes me go and clean the hell out of everything just in case Ramsey stops by hahaga.

That was a fantastic movie!

Is Jiro Dreams of Sushi still up on netflix? One of the better documentaries I have ever watched.

Yeah it's still up.

Just watched John Dies at the End - pretty hilarious!

 

[itsme_timd]

Yeah it's still up.

I didn't know that was on Netflix yet! I read the book, will have to check out the movie.

With the above Jiro Dreams of Sushi reference I read this as Jiro Dies at the End. Way to spoil it for me.

Yeeaaaahhhh........If Jiro's first name is "John" I will eat some pig sushi.

He does not. Had he I would have cried and posted pics of my tears.

 

[Swarley88]

I would've lost a lot of hope in the world if he had died. Also would cry myself to sleep most nights.

Sorry for dashing your emotions. I take it back. I take it back.

 

[Swarley88]

The American one.

Ahh ok. I like both. The British one a bit more cause they don't bleep out anything.

Day of the Falcon -- was actually pretty good and worth watching.

ParaNorman -- it's okay for kids, but some of the dialogue had me scratching my head like did they really just say that ie. "what cha watching" "just sex and violence".... and then the part about the older brother having a boyfriend..
my kids haven't even hit the birds and bees talk, let alone the gay talk i guess....idk, that seemed rather random for a kids movie..

Kids catch more than you think. You just don't realize it until much, much too late.

Good. He is 85 but I'm not ready for that loss yet.

It's the same talk now. The Parent League consolidated it in 1988 after a split 5-6 vote in favor. Did you not get the updated manual?

You got that right...

There could be an entire other thread called "LEAST annoying kids shows on Netflix STREAMING".

I would have said Phineas and Ferb, until my 3yo son watched the Rollercoaster: The Musical episode non-stop for at least a week.... Those songs are still rumbling through my head...

 

[HoppyDaze]

I'm approaching the end of the 4th season of Trailer Park Boys...Man, what a great show. Bubbles is really coming into his own.

Beware what you wish for. Sometimes the cure is worse than the affliction. Try anthing by Barney, Sheri Lewis, Its a Small World Afterall, or any of the other addictive kids songs to clear it out. <--- DJ is not responsible for any of thses songs that get stuck in your head as a result.

On a side note, anyone noticed that Mary Had a Little Lamb, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and several other kids songs all have the same tune behind them? Eerie. And once you do notice it you can never un-notice it.

I still think Aladdin is the best kids movie.

Yup, alphabet song too.

And Aladdin is terrific. Hard to believe Disney let the original lyrics go to the box office of the opening song. How could they not think they'd piss no one off with something like "Where they cut off your ears if they don't like your face. It's barbaric, but hey, it's home!"

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

I hate anything Disney for what they do to traditional stories, it's just wet.. When I grew up in England, Alladin was a pantomime (No, not a mime) It was live theatre where women played the male leads, men played the parts of the ugly women, they all told ribald jokes and sang dirty songs and all the children in the audience grew up without any lasting trauma.....It's not like I wear women's panties or anything now!!

Quitter!

 

[cheezydemon3]

Aladdin.....wait....is Aladdin on netflix?

I was gonna prattle off a bunch of other good disney/pixar, but that would range OT a good bit.

Sorry, but I know lots of people like to skim this thread just to get ideas of what's on.

Seeing a bunch of titles that aren't streaming muddies the water a bit.

 

[DrunkleJon]

no, sorry just got off on a tangent with the kids movies thing. I head they got a bunch of the disney movies though so maybe. Will check tonight.

HEY! Cnn.com had a list of the best 20 shows in the last 20 years. I was all like, "NO WAY BSG will be on there, but it should."

But it IS!!!lol.

No fault of yours of course, but I FREAKING hate slideshow news articles. I refuse to read them just because their such a pain in the @$$.

How can you be so sure that it's not cheezy's fault?
