Divorce (2016)
10 minutes and off it went
I remember when I watched War of the Roses and found myself thinking how pathetic these people were.
When I was watching this show, memories of War of the Roses came back. I hated that movie and definitely do not like this show. I guess I don't like seeing married couples be so hateful towards one another.
The way the birthday couple spoke to each other was pathetic. I don't find this stuff funny or entertaining.
I see it has gotten great reviews...but if a show doesn't catch my attention within 5 to 10 minutes, I am gone. Perhaps I will give it another try some day.
Sense8 (2015)
Hooked!
I positively love this series and I am hooked! I just started season 1 and I cannot wait to get home each day to watch it. I make myself watch only 1 episode per day to make the excitement last (I can easily binge watch and be done in 3 days).
The story revolves around 8 people (in 8 different cities) who become connected to each other.
This show is very well thought out and it is captivating. Some poor acting by one of the characters, but overall an amazing show. I highly recommend it!
If I could give it more than 10 stars I would...genius!
Velvet (2013)
Quirky but I like it
I like the show and the characters in it...
The show is about a department store in Spain in the 1950's. After the death of the owner, the son, Alberto, takes over. The love of his life works there as a seamstress. It's a soap opera with all the stories and conflicts between the characters. But I like it.
the only thing that drives me crazy is the music. They repeat the same songs over and over and the majority do not fit the scene. There doesn't have to be a song with mostly every scene.
Overall it's well done and the story lines are entertaining. I like most of the characters in it.
Can't wait for season 3 to be on Netflix!
