Evil Genius is another Netflix one that I would highly recommend.StephTheBookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05340476943567585965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-26200733663806261492020-05-11T17:24:05.660-05:002020-05-11T17:24:05.660-05:00Hm.

I'll give that another shot. I binged Dead To Me S2 which I loved, and watched the latest Seinfeld special, which I laughed out loud during. I also started Modern Love on Amazon Prime and while about halfway through, I've really enjoyed what I've watched so far. <br /><br />SO. Little Fires Everywhere. Before I get into it, I felt the same about Reese/Big Little Lies completely. But I also agree with you on this review. I actually read a Q&A with Ms. Ng re: the changes between the two. She felt she couldn't write Mia as a black woman bc that's not her experience, though she did want it to have more diversity. Race played such a huge role in the TV adaption, it overshadowed nearly everything else. And then Izzie as a lesbian/bi character also threw me for a loop. AND THAT ENDING. I don't understand why they couldn't have kept it true to the book. It overall just felt like a complete departure from the book IMO, and not in a good way. lil desiquahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12702603642296991017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-84684767360175564722020-05-10T10:26:40.904-05:002020-05-10T10:26:40.904-05:00The Killer Inside probably would be fascinating - ...The Killer Inside probably would be fascinating - I don't know much about the story either. I do want to check out Never Have I Ever, because it sounds fantastic. I loved the show Dead to Me on Netflix if you haven't watched it yet - the second season just dropped Friday, so I need to start watching that!<br /><br />-Lauren<br />www.shootingstarsmag.net Shooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-40111734001653633892020-05-10T06:46:00.089-05:002020-05-10T06:46:00.089-05:00I loved the book Little Fires Everywhere, but have...I loved the book Little Fires Everywhere, but haven't gotten around to watching the show. Chris doesn't seem super interested in it, so it will be one I have to find time to squeeze in on my own. I got bored with Homeland after a few episodes. We watched a little bit of Better Call Saul, need to get back to it, it was good.Nadinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16829545845216136042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-72644731319056366882020-05-08T18:09:02.528-05:002020-05-08T18:09:02.528-05:00Great post!

Keri Washington's acting bugged me in Little Fires Everywhere. The facial expressions! And there was really NOTHING likable about her character. I watched the first season or two of Homeland. If it's on Hulu I want to get in to it again!Ashley @ A Cute Anglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02142492663025989535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-31577849274284205082020-05-08T08:11:12.804-05:002020-05-08T08:11:12.804-05:00Waco was a mind trip to me because I was like, Wh...Waco was a mind trip to me because I was like, Why am I feeling bad for these people? ... It was interesting to think that the full story wasn't out - & I dont think that's the full story either... like most things, we'll never really know.<br />I'm 3 episodes in Little Fires Everywhere & yeah, I know what you're saying- Kerry Washington's character just irks me... that half smirk GLARE to everyone who says anything to her. <br />I gotta get back to Better Call Saul - I watched the first season & then missed the rest - I need to rewatch it & remind myself what was going onRebecca Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03965781380511208862noreply@blogger.com
