Terrace House! Terrace House! Terrace House! I'm only on episode 18 and I can confidently say that it should be considered the new standard for all reality TV. I seriously can't get enough of this show.

Netflix is stepping it up, Ice Fantasy is insane

It's like an entire series that's just live-action Fantasy RPG cutscenes, but with the kind of acting you'd see in telenovelas or high school plays, and the kind of ADR you'd see in old kaiju movies.  Script is like high-fantasy Mad-Libs, and it looks like 90% of the budget went to costumes.  It's fun but I don't think the fun can last for 60 episodes

Why are so many people raving about Netflix's Series of Unfortunate Events... series? I've watched the first two episodes and it's not captivating me even slightly. Is this just my broken judgement? I don't want to sound like an asshole. Is it one of those things that gets a lot better? The titty joke made me laugh.

I really liked the series, but it took me a little while to get into it because there's a lot of awful green screen in the first couple that kept pulling me out of it. It's possible that the only reason I like it is because I read the books when I was younger. I also liked the way they implemented Snicket's asides to the reader.

I can't recommend Those Who Can't enough.

It's a great show and it features the Grawlix which is a Denver based group.

It's been described as It's always sunny but with teachers.

I am way behind the curve and have just gotten into Black Mirror, which is a very good show. What's nice about it is not having to watch every episode, I can just watch the ones that I think have interesting premises without worrying about losing a narrative thread.

  Did Fox Sports buy the rights to Westminster Doggo show just to shit the bed? This isn't coverage of a century-spanning tradition, this is a third-rate Tim and Eric sketch. Disney-ass infographics, filming judge's backs for 10+ seconds during each dog's announcement, constant cuts to the audience... and why include a segment mentioning 9/11 without even contextualizing it with rescue dogs?  Why is Chris Myers here? Is this Footbaw Congress: Good Boy Edition?

I just started watching The Mick and Superior Donuts.

Both of them have only a few episode but they're surprisingly strong,

The Mick is pretty heartwarming while also being good for trashy humour!

Superior Donuts is just straight up heartwarming. So if you like Mike and Molly, you'll probably like that show.

If you like reality tv or game shows, I can't recommend South Korean The Genius enough. It's a weekly elimination show but the contestants are all already famous, so people aren't trying to make their name with how they perform on the show, and the prize pool is relatively meager so it becomes much more sporting and equitable than many other competition game shows. Also, it's all game theory games with an emphasis on both teamwork and individual excellence, so there's a very high level of competition. I would personally say this is the best reality game show that exists, and the best game show on TV, narrowly edging out Jeopardy!. Season one is available (subbed) on Youtube, and seasons two through four are on Dailymotion. I 100% recommend watching it, and if you don't like it by the end of the second episode, you never will. I've gotten a few people on this forum into the show and I would like to extend the opportunity to get into it to more people. It really, honestly is the best reality TV game show in the entire world.

Here is the first episode:

If you want a fun period piece crime series starring a woman who kicks ass and looks fabulous while doing so, Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries is quite good. Just watched the first 2 episodes on Netflix and I quite enjoy it.
