    It is however stunning that Netflix resigns Sandler to four more movies (eight total) on the heels of the "successes" of his first two. Those first two films were The Ridiculous Six and The Do-Over which got a 0% and 5% respectively on Rotten Tomatoes. The streaming service claims these films were their biggest releases in their history and there are a whole lot of them under the Netflix Original Movie banner. I have no reason to doubt them because they're putting their money where their mouth is.
    This is a pretty good article on the whole Sandler/Netflix deal.

    "The Week Of" becomes the latest poorly reviewed Sandler movie to be bankrolled as a Netflix original release. Netflix and Sandler will be just fine.

      Yeah, good article. The bottom line is that Netflix has a lot of data to help them make profitable decisions.

        I'm hoping this will be good. I really liked her in Mad Men.

          It's gonna be weird seeing her in a feature role as an adult

          I hope they can pull it off, I love the idea of having a darker Sabrina series

                If you ever watched the original, then you would realize that this was so spot on. The original Dr. Smith was infuriating because every episode his selfish weak actions continually put him and everyone else in more danger. Even as a young child, his actions would cause me pain, as he time after time sabotaged the mission for no good reason, other than self preservation or arrogance.

                I think they did hell of job with this incarnation. Really can't wait for a second season.

                  Oh yeah I agree. It's a spot on reincarnation from the original as far as *******ness goes lol. It doesn't bring the show down. I just can't stand her actions even though I know that's the role she plays lol. Ugh.

                      Just started Money Heist and quickly realized it's another foreign show with English dub and the subtitles don't really match. Minor gripe, still optimistic

                      Anyone else watched this? I just finished Part 1 and give thumbs up, the suspension of disbelief is needed, but once you get into the groove of what the show is about it is wildly entertaining

                        I checked out the Australian series Wanted. After a couple episodes I was hooked , binged the entire series, 2 seasons 6 episode each. There may be a season 3 in the works according to the main character's twitter.

                              The Carter effect. Really good stuff. Basically how Vince Carter brought basketball to life in Toronto and the impact he had.

                                I would sure hope so...season 2 did a great job of setting the table for the next Joel and Sheila's next challenge.
