Some of the recent tv shows I’ve enjoyed (or not)

5 stars. This show just keeps getting consistently better. I watched every moment of this season with a big dopey grin.
-
5 stars. A charming way to relax and learn a bit more about baking while watching delightfully British people.

3 stars. The last season felt rushed and predictable. I'd much rather read the book ... maybe someday.
-
4 stars. I thought this was a pretty great adaptation of the comic. Great cast, great story.
-
5 stars. I wasn't sure how the Duffer brothers would follow up on the first season, but they delivered in spades!
-
3 stars. You know it's a pretty good series when you're disappointed that it felt so short.

5 stars. This far surpassed my already high expectations. Hilarious, smart, and enlightening.
-
3 stars. Not quite as high quality as the other Netflix Marvel series, but entertaining nonetheless.
-
5 stars. I've been enjoying Trevor Noah on the Daily Show, but hadn't seen his standup before. I was happily impressed!
-
5 stars. One of my favorite comedians, Gaffigan makes just about everything funny without stooping to crass language.
-
5 stars. I really loved this look at the beginning of Queen Elizabeth II's reign, and can't wait for the next season to begin.
-
4 stars. Easily my favorite so far of the Marvel superhero shows on Netflix. Not just fun, but culturally relevant and hopeful.
-
5 stars. A direct hit to the 80s nostalgia center in my brain. Great characters, an engrossing story, well told and scored.
-
5 stars. The second (and sadly final) season of Galavant was even better than the first.
-
4 stars. Great cast chemistry, somewhat predictable "mysteries", and writing that spanned the spectrum. All in all good fun.
-
3 stars. Dark and brutal with great characters, an gripping plot, and one of the best villains I’ve seen in a series in years
-
5 stars. Like many of Ron Swanson’s adages, the ten tips for life in this special are simultaneously deep and hilarious.
-
5 stars. The first sitcom in a long time to leave me with a dopey grin through every single episode. I love every character.
-
4 stars. A goofy, quirky musical comedy that we’re still singing along with.
-
3 stars. Netflix continues to deliver in the Marvel TV universe with the gritty, disturbing, and dark Jessica Jones.
