An innocent man (documentary)
I will see the 2 docs. I’ve seen the others and they ate good.
Nole Lou you know I loved you. But I’m not sold. So I will see!
I really enjoyed The Rain and Perfume. We are starting Pine Gap and Bad Blood today. We binged the new Watership Down series, as well, the last couple of days, and it’s really lovely.
My partner is a sucker for all Australian eye candy, and she loves Elsa Pataky. We are several episodes into Tidelands, and it is good silly fun. Reminds me a bit of Haven.Anybody tried Tidelands? The teaser looks a little intriguing, but also looks like it could be stupid. Trying not to read too much about it ahead of time though if I want to watch it.

Legit question: how does a “partner” differentiate from boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife? I assume there is some legal way?My partner is a sucker for all Australian eye candy, and she loves Elsa Pataky. We are several episodes into Tidelands, and it is good silly fun. Reminds me a bit of Haven.
I do not use the term to imply any sort of legal differentiation for my relationship. I use the term because it does not exclude any gender identity, sexual/romantic orientation, or legal status. It’s just a really easy characterization.Legit question: how does a “partner” differentiate from boyfriend/girlfriend or husband/wife? I assume there is some legal way?
Interesting. I thought maybe it had some legal bearing in terms of insurance or taxes or something along those lines but I hadn’t heard of anyone using the term.

I got us a new TV, Xbox, and FireStick. She got us a new burr coffee grinder and a monthly subscription for Compelling coffee.

It's so hard to keep up these days.You said “she” in the Christmas loot thread?
So I binged a new show called Perfume. German show, so skip it if you don't do subtitles. Or, Netflix probably provides an English dub, but those are usually awful.
It's not for everyone, it's extremely lurid/dark, and pretty bonkers if you're really set on realism in the storyline. But it's played serious as hell, looks really good visually, and the central mystery was strong enough to keep me hooked. If I had to guess, I'd say they were going for a German version of a True Detective season if I had to compare it to something. Pretty heavy on the sex if that's your thing.
If you like typical twisty UK/European thrillers and do subtitles, I'd give it a go. Although, like other German series I've seen, everyone looks the same and everything looks like it could be a last name or a first name, and it has a current/flashback structure that makes it hard as hell to figure out who is who for a while. It's nowhere near as convoluted and with as many characters as Dark, if you watched that. But I ended up a few episodes in still trying to figure out who was who.
I've enjoyed Travelers. The third season was just released.
Travelers 3 seasons, 34 episodes
It’s a light sci-fi drama about people from hundreds of years in the future whose consciences are sent back to the present day to take the place of others who are already about to die. They’re sent back, a la Terminator, to prevent a bleak future from taking place. In the present day, this group of people is tasked with missions to prevent the future dystopia from happening, but they also have to acclimate into the lives of their host bodies. It is a quintessential Netflix show: Easy-to-binge, madly addictive, fun as hell, and immediately engrossing.
Tidelands is tough to stay with....
Netflix’s Tidelands was tailor-made for a nudity-based drinking game
Tidelands is cut from the supernatural-soap-opera mold that has become a CW signature, but because it’s Netflix, it can include nudity. So there’s a lot of it. There are shots of Tidelanders picking up barrels of drugs from the ocean floor, while wearing only bikini bottoms. There’s Cal, wondering if she might be a Tidelander, stripping down to test her water-breathing in the tub. For equal-opportunity eye candy, there’s also a scene where Augie removes his sleeveless shirt and the camera zooms in on his muscles, right before he dons another sleeveless shirt.
And then there’s the sex, which creator Stephen M. Irwin sometimes uses like Game of Thrones’ notorious sexposition, though sometimes it’s just a throwaway transition between scenes.
Tidelands is trash TV, but it’s the type of entertaining trash that’s sure to find an audience who will love it for exactly what it is. It’s the sunny television equivalent of a beach read, a perfect escapist fantasy for getting through the worst of winter.

Huh?

I used “she” in this thread, as well. She uses she/her pronouns.You said “she” in the Christmas loot thread?
Thanks, we will check it out. She also really liked Travelers.RTM, I concur with your Travelers recommendation. I've almost finished season 3, and the series still holds my interest.
UCLA, if your partner is into Aussie tv, check out Wanted. Three seasons of six episodes each (so far). A really enjoyable crime and corruption story in which two very dissimilar women find themselves being chased all around Australia by cops and criminals.
