So, what are we watching on TV these days? →[More:]My taste in TV shows runs to the trashy. And I can't wait for my favourite TLC shows to turn up on TV here. We always get them a few months after the USA, and then I can't join in on the snark on the fan forums. So on Monday evenings when I get in from work I find a stream of the latest iteration in the 90-Day Fiance franchise. Currently it's the OG 90DF, but I also like Before the 90 Days and 90 Days: What Next? I have no shame. And it takes my mind off the catastrophe of Brexit.
I'm afraid I gave up on The Good Place. It just got a bit too silly for me, and I don't particularly like the characters enough to want to stick with it. For a comedy fix I re-watch The Office (the US one). Seasons 2 and 3 are perfection.
I've loved Better Call Saul since Season 1, and I think it's better than Breaking Bad. I'll be sad when it ends, but the transformation of Jimmy into Saul is almost complete, so it's reaching its natural conclusion. Bob Odenkirk is a wonderful actor.
Over the last week I watched The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix. Scary as f**k. All those glimpses of nearly-hidden ghosts, so clverly done. The Bent-Neck Lady episode nearly destroyed me.
'Tis the season of the feel-good Christmas film. You know the ones - the cynical divorcee returns from the big city to her podunk home town for Christmas and there's some hot widower who ends up making her realise that what she really wants for Christmas is lurrrve. There's nothing nicer on a cold, wintry afternoon than a couple of Lifetime Christmas films.
So, what's on your TV planner at the moment?
