Girlfriends Guide To TV

this !

If you chuckle at this pillow, then we are on the same page!

If not: go watch Stranger Things! We are not quite finished with season two, but it’s been a really good one! I think I like it more than season one.

Another great show we’re in the middle of is This Is Us! Everyone was talking about it, and we finally started. It’s been great. We paused when we caught up to season two so more episodes could accumulate. I prefer to watch TV on demand instead of one week at a time. My favorite character by far is Randall. (And I was so happy he won a Golden Globe!!) I think his character’s story is wonderful, Steling Brown’s acting is flawless, and Randall makes me laugh out loud with his corny jokes all the time. He and Beth are a couple I’d want to befriend in real life. I love their girls too! Kevin is… just a mess. Kate’s story is great, and I love where it has gone. (Chrissy Metz is also a fabulous actress.)

The third and final show I’ve been into this year: Girlfriends Guide To Divorce! Have you heard of it? It’s a total mash-up of Sex and the City and Big Little Lies. Without giving too much away, I can relate to so many things in this series, and it’s fun to watch too! There are three seasons on Netflix – run, don’t walk, home to start it this evening! (I didn’t even know there was a season 4 until just now because only the first 3 are on Netflix, but how exciting!)

Does anyone want pancakes for breakfast?

I did!

Sherry on Young House Love’s podcast recently recommended the show The Sinner on USA about a woman who murders a stranger on a beach. They said it’s really good, so I’m putting that on my list. What other shows are you guys into?!

    Yes, yes, yes to This Is Us! I honestly think it’s the best TV show I’ve watched in a while. None of that drama, romance stuff… I love family shows! 🙂

      I love This is Us also! The writing and acting is so well thought out. I also fell in love with Stranger Things. The writing is so unique and the kids and other actors are amazing.

    Love this! My husband and I have been watching “Turn” on netflix right now and i can’t say enough about it. It draws you in, has a bit of history, romance, suspense. A really great couples show. Annnndddd my current chick flick is the Bachelor! Are you watching this season? I really like Arie. I feel like he’s the first good Bachelor in a long time. Have a fab. day!

    Huge This is Us fan too, Randall is by far my fave. I was disappointed in The Sinner. It started out great but I hated the conclusion/wrap up and there were a few other things that made my ick factor boil over too. I personally would not recommend it but if you do decide to watch I’d love to hear your thoughts. I would recommend Victoria instead. It’s on the second season (on PBS) but I’m currently binge watching season 1 – it’s so good!

    I only have local channels (no cable where I live!) but have liked 9-1-1 on FOX. A little cheesy/over the top but a decent guilty pleasure drama with some romance thrown in.

      I started that but couldn’t make it through the first ep. Is it by episode?? or one long event?? I think I may have been too distracted while watching it and need to give it another shot. I liked a lot of the set up and had high expectations.

    This is Us all the way! Sterling K Brown has racked up multiple Emmys, GG’s and SAG awards for his role! I <3 him! Fun fact, his real life wife appeared in season 1 as the black mother at the pool who advises Jack and Rebecca on how to care for young Randall's hair.

    Fellow Stranger Things fan! We have some Chief Hopper artwork in our kitchen saying ‘Mornings are for coffee and contemplation’ 😀

    I’m in the UK so will need to check if we can get This is Us and Girlfriends Guide to Divorce. They soud great! I’m currently into season six of a French serial killer series called Spiral (Engrengages) which is amazing. I also love Crazy Ex Girlfriend (Season 1 was the best) and Narcos – we recently finished the third series. I didn’t tbink I’d be interested in a drama about drug lords but trust me it is amazing and sooooo tense! It proves that the truth really is way more out there than fiction!

    Big fan of “This Is Us” but wondering how you can watch Season Two without completing Season One first? Each episode is pretty dependent on the ones that preceded it. It’s an unfolding story.

    Ozark is fantastic and Jason Bateman’s best role to date IMO.

    Bloodline is another fantastic show on Netflix. Set in the FL Keys so the scenery is SO nice to watch this time of year for the rest of us not living in tropical paradise.

    Someone above mentioned The Killing on Netflix and I totally second that if you like detective shows. Also, if you haven’t watched Call the Midwife you must must must see it! It is such a heartwarming show and really interesting to see how much the process of giving birth has changed since the time period when it is set (1950s in East London). Plus…babiesssssss!! I tear up every time a baby is born on that show! 🙂

    Absolutely love Stranger things…we binged watched the second season over a weekend as soon as it was released! The kids are great actors and love all the 80’s references.

    We loved Ozark, and can’t wait for the next season to air. Very gritty! Jason Bateman and Laura Linney were great, as was Julia Garner.

    I would give The sinner a watch. I do agree with the previous comment regarding the end, but it was still gripping and Bill Pullman was amazing…such a different role for him.
