Obviously, instead of getting anything productive done, I've been watching a ton of shows on Netflix. Usually while playing my new favorite game - Ruzzle.
And yeah, this is a second television post in a week. My life is incredibly boring lately. What are you gonna do?
Here are some of the things I've been watching lately:
When I first found this show on Netflix, I immediately thought, "This is like porn for ladies that love beards!"
It's about the world of competitive bearding. And, it's actually so much more interesting than that.
I haven't finished it. There are only 7 episodes in the first season and I'm pacing myself because I really enjoy this show. It's on IFC and there is another season, but I don't get IFC here. Bummer.
I marathoned this show the other day. I was obsessed to the point that my family threatened to put me on the show for being addicted to it.
This show is not for the faint of heart or for anyone with a weak stomach because you watch people eat some fucked up stuff. Some highlights: Pottery, cigarette ashes, COMET CLEANER, and of course, her husband's ashes.
If that doesn't intrigue you, I don't know what will.
I haven't watched every episode and I don't necessarily think I will, but wow.
There are some episodes about sexual habits and I don't care about that - I think it's kind of demeaning to call what happens in a consensual setting as "strange," but that's besides the point.
There was an episode about a woman with two vaginas - and that was super interesting. She had no idea until she went to her first gynecological exam!
This shit.
Ugh.
So, last year I started watching it because I assumed I'd like it. David Cross and Will Arnett are hilarious and I thought the show would be hilarious. That's a no. I watched a few episodes and quickly gave up because it's just not funny. They try so hard to be edgy and it just falls short.
I saw it had a second season recently and I gave it another go. And I actually watched it all. It didn't get any better.
The best part is Jon Hamm. But, isn't he the best part of any show?
Do you have any suggestions for things I should watch on Netflix? Because I'm definitely back to watching Futurama episodes while I write my blog posts again. Let me know what you've been watching in the comments!Labels: television
