Started watching Lupin on Netflix. Entertaining if you can get past the enormous plot holes

Itās like McGyver or Leverage (although I often couldnāt see the plot holes in Leverage since they had a team with many different skills 
so I figured they were each geniuses at what their specialty is). 
I really liked Lupin.

Rewatched Netflixās Unbelievable. Itās really very good.
Indian Matchmaking. I liked it but didnāt like that many of the stories donāt have an ending. The one person I didnāt really care about is the only one that went all the way through the matching process. I hope there is a second season (although with covid they arenāt sure they can do filming) with a recap of the people from the first season.
Living/Undocumented. This was tough. It is the stories of 8 families living in the US, well, undocumented. Some have been in the US for almost 20 years while others have just entered the US. Two or three of the families are successful business owners while the newest to enter are poor. It gives a fair picture of the legal issues and that there really is no ālineā to stand in when people tell them to āget in lineā and no way to become legal; a few of the children have DACA status.

OK, we must have not been in the right mindset the first time we tried the first episode of Schittās Creek. We started it again last week after finishing up a couple of other series we had been watching. OMG. Absolutely love this show. So funny. Thanks for the encouragement to try this one again.

Iām enjoying Bloodline. I started it because my celebrity crush is now Kyle Chandler after watching him on Friday Night Lights.
Bloodline is not my favorite show, but itās still good. I like the filming locations in the Florida Keys.

Same here! We gave it another shot and this time it āstuckā. I think we are in middle of season 2?! Love it!
(It also took us two attempts to get into the Soproanos, but when we tried that the second time we were hooked immediately. Still miss it!!)

I binged on the first four seasons of āThe Expanseā on Prime Video about six months ago. Except for āThe Mandalorianā, itās the best sci-fi series Iāve seen in years. The fifth season just completed, although they started releasing new episodes on a weekly basis so you couldnāt binge watch until recently. First three seasons were fantastic. It felt the show was running out of steam in the fourth and fifth seasons. Still, itās been good enough that Iāve checked the book the first season was based on out of the library.

Thanks for the Leverage suggestion. Had never heard of it. Watched a couple episodes last night and enjoyed it. We needed something lighter to go with our Criminal Minds binge.

CNN started Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy last Sunday. Watched last Sundayās episode on Naples and a pre-covid episode on Tuscany available on demand on Thursday night. Looking forward to this weekās episode. I think itās Rome this week. Traveling vicariously on his culinary adventures.

@2VU0609 we watched the Stanley Tucci program also. My husband actually looked up and found the recipe for the ālemon delightā cakes and is planning on making them tomorrow.
We have also been enjoying Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix, another travel/food documentary. First episode was Thailand. Tonight we are watching Vietnam. The host is pretty funny.

Are they ON Demand? I was so exhausted Sunday I actually went to bed before the Rome episode? I could stream them on CNNgo, but want to watch with my husband on a larger screen.
I highly recommend The Sinner on Netflix (3 seasons/8 episodes per season) with Bill Pullman as a police detective in upstate NY. Itās not the typical crime series. Pullman, a man with demons, is the only character who returns each season and each season thereās a different murder. The murderer is revealed in the opening episode and the season revolves around Pullman trying to determine the motives of the murderer.
@conmama : Yes, it seems they are available on demand. Looks like they also repeat the previous Sundayās episode on Saturday nights.
Watching a new (to us) season of The Repair Shop on Netflix. British series where people bring heirlooms (real or imagined) to a repair shop for repair or restoration. Itās got that calm Great British Bake Show vibe, very soothing and comforting. Some of the stories are touching. Watching the craftspeople bring seeming pieces of junk back to life is fun. Comfort food-like TV.

Thanks for the recommendation! I thought itād beā¦something else entirely 
Will check it out.
2 British shows, the first one because of The Sinner recommendation due to a similar title, totally different topic: itās a sināyoung gay men in London in the 80s.
Unforgotten: new season out!!
@2VU0609 , thank you!! I loved his first show!
Behind Her Eyes on Neflix. Six episodes, we have two left hopefully tonight. We usually watch a single episode so we donāt rush through but with this show I said last night āI must knowā. Lead is Eve Hewson, her dad is Bono from U2. We watched The Knick a few years ago. Eve played a nurse in a 1900 NY hospital, great medical, history sometimes horror show by Steven Soderbergh. Behind Her Eyes was a book but I didnāt read it. Mystery, moody, thriller with awesome music
