| Rating | Title | Genre | Venue | When |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5 | The Estate | Comedy | Netflix | 2025/01 |
| N | Good cast, not a good movie. Too many cringe worthy scenes. This was a dumpster fire from the beginning. | |||
| 4 | The Penguin | Crime, Drama, Tragedy | HBOMax | 2025/01 |
| Y | The Penguin was better than I expected. Thought it might be a comic book movie but it was more of a gangster/crime drama. The Penguin character was complicated and troubled. The acting was very good. Was blown away at the transformation of Colin Farrell in the lead role. Would have never known it was him due to the make-up, mannerisms and accent. Cristin Milioti was also very good as Sophia Falcone. | |||
| 3 | No Good Deed | Dark Comedy, Drama | Netflix | 2025/01 |
| Y | Quite an ensemble cast in a twisted story surrounding the selling of a house. The sellers and buyers all have interesting story lines. Of course you have to suspend disbelief on some of the stupid things that happen. | |||
| 3 | Yacht Rock: A Dockumentary | Documentary, Music | HBO | 2025/01 |
| Y | Had heard the term Yacht Rock but didn't really understand where it came from. This documentary explained how the name was coined but also the great performers who made the music. This music from the 70s was not called Yacht Rock at the time. There were many talented musicians who performed on different albums together. | |||
| 2.5 | The World According to Kaleb: On Tour | Comedy | Amazon | 2024/12 |
| M | This was entertaining if you are a fan of the Clarkson's Farm show. Kaleb is one of the main characters of the reality show about farming. This show is a combination of farming facts, references to Clarkson's Farm and other worthy causes. | |||
| 2 | Craig Ferguson: I'm So Happy | Comedy, Stand-up | Amazon | 2024/12 |
| M | Could not find this comedy special listed in IMDb. I laughed quite a bit throughout the special but my wife did not enjoy it. If you like Craig Ferguson then you'll probably enjoy it. | |||
| 2 | A Christmas Castle Proposal | Romance, Holiday | Other | 2024/12 |
| M | Recorded this holiday movie from Great American Family network. It was okay but we were extremely annoyed at the plot thread where the prince could not "find the right time" to propose. We were talking to the screen every time he missed an opportunity or he got interrupted. The main actress, Rhiannon Fish, was the only redeeming part of the movie. | |||
| 3 | Virgin River: season 6 | Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2024/12 |
| Y | Season 6 picked up right after the events of season 5. This season focused on the wedding of Jack and Mel. This definitely feels like a soap opera with some outlandish plot twists. We like most of the actors and the characters they play. There were a few cliffhangers in the last episode leaving the door open for a 7th season. | |||
| 3 | Bad Sisters - season 2 | Comedy, Drama, Thriller | Apple+ | 2024/12 |
| M | The second season picked up a little time after the first season ended. There were a couple new characters added which made for interesting plot twists. The show was still over-the-top at times and had us shaking our heads. We didn't enjoy the last few episodes due to how outlandish things seemed. We liked the actresses but do not feel the need for any additional seasons of the show. | |||
| 3 | Jayde Adams: Serious Black Jumper | Comedy, Stand-up | Amazon | 2024/12 |
| Y | Found this 2020 comedy special on Prime and gave it a try. Jayde was funny and insightful at times. Enjoyed most of the special but both of us nodded off at least once. Not sure if it was the material or just tired after dinner. | |||
| 4 | Shrinking - season 2 | Comedy, Drama | Apple+ | 2024/12 |
| Y | We really enjoyed the second season of this show. There were new twists to the story and unpacking of emotional baggage for different cast members. Laughed out loud multiple times in most episodes. The writing and acting are great. | |||
| 2.5 | Jingle Bell Run | Holiday, Comedy, Romance | Other | 2024/12 |
| M | This movie portrayed a holiday version of the Amazing Race. Typical Hallmark formula of the two leads hating each other at the beginning then falling in love by the end. Ashley Williams was fine as the female lead but Andrew Walker was less enjoyable. | |||
| 2.5 | Hot Frosty | Holiday, Comedy, Romance | Netflix | 2024/12 |
| M | We knew the movie would be silly based on the trailer. We like Lacey Chabert so gave it a chance. It was entertaining as a lighthearted take on the Frosty story. The town sheriff character was over-the-top and a bit annoying. The bloopers at the end were fun to watch. | |||
| 3.5 | That Christmas | Holiday, Animation, Family | Netflix | 2024/12 |
| Y | This new holiday animated Christmas story was entertaining. Should be enjoyable for the whole family. | |||
| 3 | Your Friend, Nate Bargatze | Comedy, Stand-up | Netflix | 2024/12 |
| Y | Thought this was going to be a totally new comedy special but Nate performed some bits we had heard before. We will like his comedy, but this was not the best special. | |||
| 2.5 | Our Holiday Story | Romance | Other | 2024/12 |
| Y | Typical Hallmark holiday movie. It recounted how a couple found love around the holidays. | |||
| 1 | Michael Buble's Christmas in the City | Holiday, Music | Other | 2024/12 |
| N | Watched this special right after the Sabrina Carpenter one. We had recently seen Michael Buble on The Voice so thought the special would be good. This was actually from 2021 and was underwhelming. We were not impressed with Michael's take on holiday classics. Found ourselves fast forwarding through most of the songs. | |||
| 3 | A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter | Holiday, Music | Netflix | 2024/12 |
| M | This was a fun holiday special with some guests and some comedy bits. It was better than we expected since we were not the target demographic. Not all of the bits were good but the singing was nice. | |||
| 3.5 | Fortune Feimster: Crushing It | Comedy, Stand-up | Netflix | 2024/12 |
| Y | We have enjoyed other comedy specials by Fortune Feimster so gave this a try. There were a number of funny stories. She did a bit about biscuits that we had seen before. This was worth watching for some laughs. | |||
| 4 | Zoltan Kaszas: Honorary Jones | Comedy, Stand-up | Other | 2024/12 |
| Y | Started watching Zoltan Kaszas on Instagram video snippets. Liked his style so watched his longer specials on YouTube. The Honorary Jones special recently reached 1 million views on YouTube, which was a milestone for a comedy special. | |||
