Black hole sun, lovely son, I don't think I've ever seen the clip. Not much into clips.


Handmaid's tale is on HBO.
I loved the book, and that's a likely reason why I did not love the first season. It was not bad, but it felt *meh*
We kept on watching it, but the second and third season I definetely did not like. I don't think I'll be watching the fourth one.
But I know I'm against popular taste :mclaugh:

(Worth mentioning that Atwood wrote a second novel after the series success, and it's one of the worst books I've read in years. Awful.)



I'm watching an oldie, Modern Family.
It's certainly funny, amusing, entertaining. And also short, perfect for those days when you don't have much time but want to watch something.

Also an Spanish series titled El ministerio del tiempo (The Ministry of Time), featuring time travel to historic events of my country.

The style gave me goosebumps, that's why I liked the first season. Never read the book, so I cannot compare.

I thought they found a great way to portray something that could easily be real in a near future. Similar series which gave me goosebumps was "Years and Years", also something which could easily be true and they already predicted some disasters... :mccry:

Thanks for the recomendation!
Years and years in also on HBO, it's an style of plot I do like, and there are good actors in it. Kinda long episodes though, sometimes it's tricky finding time for them.

Ah, another good one, very different to these.
"Why women kill".
Very enjoyable.

I usually watch one episode, maybe 2 per evening with my husband, but I must day that especially during summer I don't feel much for watching tv.

We just started watching a mini series about a Dutch criminal, so far it's pretty good. :)
