What TV shows have you recently watched? No Spoilers please!

Watching some silly things on Prime... Korean comedy series called Heart Beat about a vampire who wants to become human, cute and funny in places, and a 1970's horror movie called The House that Dripped Blood, which is tame by today's standards...

Wish they would make a season 2 of Three Pines, but I know that's not gonna happen...
Me too. The books that it’s based on are excellent and they did such a nice job making into TV I was really hoping it would carry on.
Oh, that was one I almost started watching before switching to Tell Me Your Secrets. I had only watched about 15 minutes, but not knowing anything about it it lost my attention by the time it got to the holiday party. Now I'm nearly done with Tell Me.

Didn't know it was based on a book. Curious to know more about it though and if I should give it a longer chance, or maybe even read it first.

It’s based on one of the Inspector Gamache novels by Louise Penny - there’s a series of them, set in la belle province (Quebec). They’re very good books.

Watching Disenchantment now. Nothing else caught my eye recently.

The way they handled the episode too. You start out with art class exploring curvature essentially. Then suddenly this un-photogenic thing just bursts in and interrupts everything. Meanwhile Otto has to struggle with responding to this curvature that naturally attracts (curvature in general) the eye with something that is in comparison just not going to be comparable.

They did that entire episode well.
 
The 2nd season of SurrealEstate strated this week on SyFy channel.

Waiting to find out when the new season of Reginald the Vampire will start
 
Started the second season of Loki the other night. Entertaining, but I don't remember 90% of the last season.
:/
He is one of my favorite characters though. Just not sure if I like the show overall. May have had more to do with me at the time I saw the first season, but I dunno.

Same here! I really wanted to like the show, I love Loki as a character, and some of it was definitely enjoyable - but overall I didn't think it was very strong. Did not leave a particularly lasting impression, and I'd be surprised if it was anybody's favourite. I have yet to watch the second season, so who's to say, I may end up eating my words, but as of right now I don't have particularly high hopes.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel that the quality of marvel films/shows in general has been steadily dropping over the years (with the occasional exception, I rather enjoyed the last Guardians film).

Same! Haven't finished the first episode though, lol, I am kind of glad I rewatched the first season not that long ago!
 
Watching Halloween for the 100th time...go Michael Myers, lol!

Watched the movie Renfield on Amazon Prime, and loved it! I laughed out loud a few times! I love Awkwafina!

That reminds me, I need some good horror movie suggestions. I'm so picky, it's October, and 99% of the time I browse for an hour and then watch nothing, then it's just back to true crime on YouTube. Would like a good engaging atmospheric horror fiction though.
 
Yes Marvel is beating a dead horse! ! Nothing left! Thought Guardians again was great! Couldn’t get through the first Loki or any of the Disney stuff. Did finish the one with Samuel L Jackson but wish I didn’t!.
Just watched live free or die! Bruce Willis was great.
Finished the WOT. It was good. GenV is great!

The Conjuring series is pretty good. There are 9 of them, I think, if you haven't seen them. They are losely based on Ed and Lorraine Warren and their work, and then they kind of branch out from there. The first movie that was released titled The Conjuring is based on a haunting in Rhode Island. The movie titled The Conjuring 2 is based on the Enfield haunting in England.

Here is a link that tells you how the movies go in chronological order, but they were not released in this order. Within the series, there are the Nun movies and the Annabelle movies (I think dolls can be creepy as heck although the real Annabelle doll looked something like a raggedy ann doll).

So this probably sounds cheesy, but for some reason I love the Netflix show, 'Love in Blind.' I've always thought love shows were goofy, but I'm hooked on this one, haha.

Finished WOT. Watching iZombie right now. Lol it's pretty cheesy too but I like it so far.
 
Just started a new show as a family last night - Shelter on prime. It's a Harlan Coben work, and the show The Five by him is one of my favorite shows. Shelter is focused on teenage characters this time and so far is good and the guessing is fun. Lots of reviews calling it brilliant so I'm excited to see where it goes. Coben is pretty good at mysteries.
^_^

Watching Fall of the house of Usher. Not bad so far. Better than Midnight Mass. That one was a snoozer. I liked Hill House and Bly Manor though. I havent watched Midnight Club yet.

House of Usher is really good. On the last one.

Ohhh I am excited about this one. Weirdly my favorite one by Poe when I was in high school.

Ever see Secret Window? Not similar story per say, but the ending made me immediately think of The Fall of the House of Usher when I saw it.

Also, the Haunting of Bly was my favorite one so far. Didn't like Hill House so much. Any idea what they'll do next?

No idea...they are always so different now.
I like Hill better than bly....lol
 
Rewatching the Tudors. Would never have wanted to live in that time period. I really like going back to this show though for some reason.
 
Watched The Creature From the Black Lagoon last night....my favorite monster, lol! Then we saw the movie The Creature Walks Among Us, so a regular Creature Feature! :D The guy who played the Creature, Ricou Browning, died this past February.

Just got caught up with ofmd, loving all of it! Living for Izzy's character development this season
 
Various channels are showing every Bob's Burgers Halloween episode, so I have been watching some of those. Some of them are laugh out loud funny, while others will make you cringe, lol!

Wife was watching Slotherhouse on Hulu the other day. It takes itself seriously as a slasher movie, but all while being completely unserious. It's worth a watch if you like slasher flicks, or just want to laugh at the entirety of it lol
 
Finished Carnival Row. The second season was a disaster IMO, because the main character was all over the place in terms of values and morality, and extremely annoying. She's like, "logic is lava" :D. Others weren't much better. The whole resolution also kind of didn't make sense. Pity, I quite enjoyed the first season.
 
We saw season 1 of Wolf Like Me last night, and I enjoyed it very much!

Anybody watching GenV?
I tried it, but couldn't get through the first episode, lol!!! Not quite my cup of tea...
 
I don't really watch much TV, other than American football, lol. But I'm a huge YouTube watcher. I've been watching videos on there about uncontacted tribes. This is my current research obsession. I'm amazed and so interested in these people and the way they live. The current one I'm watching is from the channel Davidsbeenthere. It's three hours long about a group in Ecuador in the Amazon Rainforest. This group let them visit to bring awareness to destructon of their territory.
 
Watching Spy in the Ocean on my PBS channel. So interesting!!! Love it! What these folks can do with robotics and the filming that they do is just awesome!
 
Watching a bunch of PBS channel stuff. All Creatures Great & Small - pretending to "let" my SO watch it, but it's really about as good as it gets. Tried Anikka as we like the lead actor, but didn't like it - hated it when she "breaks the wall" and keeps stopping and talking to the audience. Whitechapel is another good one.
 
House of Usher is really good. On the last one.
Wait is it based off the book “Fall of the house of usher” by Edgar Allen Poe?

If so I hadn’t realized they made some of his works into movies haha
 
Nature has a series called "Spies in the Ocean" where they have remote robots with cameras that look like the subjects. They infiltrate everything from crabs to whales. I highly recommend this series.

This is our house as well, lol. On Sunday we setup 3 TVs with a different game on each flipping back and forth between games. I also play fantasy football so it plays into the obsession even more. My other half did as well, but this year he dropped out of all his leagues so it's just me, lol. He's mad at football right now with the horrible inconsistent reffing.

We did just finish up this season of Big Brother last night, which is the only other TV show we really watch.

And we just signed up for Apple TV and started Ted Lasso. We finished the first season and it's so great. Now we just need Disney+ Canada to bring us the second season of Welcome to Wrexham. :)
 
This was a while ago now but I found the original black and white Addams Family on youtube and it really is the funniest sweetest TV series I think I have ever watched. So if you are looking to watch something with your kids or even just yourself I would definitely recommend you watch it (If you have not already)

Also watched pet cemetery the old and new version the old one was pretty good (nothing compared to the book though) and the new one was super weird although slightly better quality as it was newer.
 
Can't believe I'm doing this, but I'm watching Christmas Story....already....and it will probably be on 500 times before Christmas, too. :D
