Monster Squad was added this past month!

Easily my favorite movie growing up.

I'll probably check out Narcos but I must say that Daredevil was absolutely incredible.

Finally started watching Parks & Rec. I've been missing out.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix

Just about done watching The Office for the 5th time in a row (nostalgia is a b), someone recommend something along the same format, please. I've seen Parks & Rec, The Office original....

I just finished watching up through when Michael leaves, can't decide if I want to watch the last two seasons or just skip to the finally. I watched the show as it came on and I remember not liking the last couple seasons very much.

Post-Michael Office is sub-par imho. It's a little bit like Barney Miller after Jack Soo died. Just went downhill.

I disagree. The emergence of Robert California alone is well worth the 2 seasons. A lot of characters started to build within those seasons as well.

Wholeheartedly disagree. The very beginnings of the Robert California character were awesome, but it was not to be. The Office writers totally blew it by creating an undefined California, who became uninteresting. A total waste of the great James Spader.

Michael had the uncomfortable quirky funny quality written in. California had the uncomfortable quirky odd somewhat creepy quality written in.

I think undefined is a great word. How could you define Robert California that deemed everything related to anything was due to sex. That's just one of the quirks about him. The way he questioned and almost interrogated people. They knew the questions were coming, yet they couldn't find a way out of the conversation - except for Toby, who simply says he's "Great" - after Kelly had just received her mini therapy session.

California also had some fantastic quotes:

Watching live, it was hard to appreciate California. After 2-3 more times of going through the cycle - I started to enjoy each one of his interactions. The irony of his in depth thinking was battled by the reality of his boring suburban life (wife, divorce, grand house).

Michael had the uncomfortable quirky funny quality written in. California had the uncomfortable quirky odd somewhat creepy quality written in.

As Jim put it yes, "Creepy" and intense conversations ensued. I'm in the minority of OS I guess - but it's a joy to rewatch some of those scenes.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix

Well, maybe I'll give those later The Office episodes a shot. Having only seen them the one time, I just remember not liking the female exec that came in, Nellie? Also, I wasn't a fan of California's creepy sex talks.

I've been alternating The Office and Coach episodes for the past couple months, now Coach is dropping off Netflix tonight and I still had 1.5 seasons left so I'm picking and choosing those episodes. Will watch the final 3 episodes of it tonight and hope it returns one day to fully finish the last seasons.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix

Chef is now on Netflix, if you haven't seen it yet.

I'm also a fan of Girl Meets World of course and Season 1 is on there, but if you choose to watch it, I'll narrow down the episodes to only ones that kind of "matter" and the best ones that are there. Plus, they weren't aired in proper order, so I'd list those the right way as well.

Wife wanted to watch "Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story". Already knew his background. This was a made for TV movie and it definitely came across that way. If you don't know his background story, it's informative, but don't count on stellar acting. I think the most interesting was re-enacting how they went about separating the conjoined twins. I would skip ahead to that, which was about the last 1/4 of the movie.

Re: What's good to watch on Netflix

Been watching Hell on Wheels lately. Halfway through season 2 now. Plot wise, it may not necessarily have all the goods, but I'll be dammed if it's not entertaining as hell. I love that time period anyways.
