About to sit down and try to get through a couple episodes. Did anyone start it yet? Hoping it’s good 🤞 could use another show.

Also…Watch Widows Bay if you haven’t!

I know the first season is almost 2 years old and the second one is a few months old, but I've seen people still chime in in some posts of when the series was new, so I figured I might as well post this.

I HATE how everyone thinks Emiliano, the main character, is a murderer ('assassin' as said in the Mexican version). First of all, who knows if a fourth stake would've done anything? It might've not with how strong the wind was. Even if it would've prevented the bouncy house from flying, considering this to be murder is ridiculous, let alone considering the main character to be a murderer (you know, someone who's never tried burning children alive and doesn't own a gun, unlike a CERTAIN character who's not considered a murderer for some reason). Maybe, just maybe, it was manslaughter by neglect, but it was definitely an accident, and it's not like when he was going to answer the call he said 'I don't care if the children die as long as the $40 million business call goes well'. No, he forgot to tie the stake for a split second because he wanted to answer the call because he wanted the busy for his family and friends. He obviously never in a million years would've wanted the children to die. I know this kind of accident has happened in real life, but it couldn't be any less predictable. Again, I hate when the characters say something like "you murdered three kids", like if he shot them, or even like if it was a more common accident like running over them with a car. I get that the people affected by the tragedy are looking for someone to scapegoat, but it's absurd how, when Emiliano is taken into prison, the prisoners, who have no idea who he is and were completely unaffected by the tragedy, point at him and call him a murderer (again, 'assassin' in Spanish).

It also seems like people here on Reddit don't like Emiliano either for some reason, because I've seen comments that state that there's only two or three good characters and don't mention him, and at least one comment arguing something along the lines of him "being someone bad masked with good intentions". Again, he obviously would've never wanted the children to die, he's a very loyal person who protects his friends and family, like when he saves his daughter's life in the first season, but I also like how he puts people in their place when he needs to.

Anyway, the fact that the main character is treated this way kind of ruins it for me. Almost every other character is hatable because they're not in his shoes. They don't consider that he never wanted children to die, and just wanted to accept a deal that would bring the best for his family and friends. Thoughts?

I started watching the show on Netflix to see how much of a cringefest it can be, and halfway through episode 2, I cannot tolerate it.

Every single man on the show is misogynistic af, karan kundra and tejaswi pretending to be some sort of ultra wealthy people, men talking about how much they love their time partying with other girls how how their partners are insecure, the constant wife jokes.. wtf?

Is this how we want to represent the south asian community in dubai or any other part if the world ? Just ew.

I loved the Haunting of Hill house and The haunting of Bly manor and I’m looking for similar content. I also like Black mirror. I’ve watched Midnight mass which I liked less. Do you have any suggestions?

Please do yourself a favour and DONOT watch this show!!

It’s trending #3 in my country??! i mean wtf, people be watching anything nowadays!!

The lead cop’s acting is so horrendous! The guys seems to have divine insights over the gang’s pAttERn and then sees a single picture and goes like ‘yes, that’s our guy! I know for sure’ i mean HOWW???

Pathetic casting overall and everyone’s trying so hard to act!! 😭

-2/10

Does anybody remember Jeremy Meeks, the “Hot Felon” who actually turned his life around after prison and scored modeling contracts, a book deal and a clothing line? I couldn’t help but think of him as I was watching this documentary. And I’m by no means comparing the two because Jeremy was a product of his horrific upbringing and Wade seemed to have been raised by loving, adoptive parents so I believe Wade is an actual sociopath. I’m comparing the two as to their outward appearance and the effect it has on society.

Also, as someone who studies fashion, the bright suits and ties Wade wore were definitely a choice. Who bought these for him? I know that women probably sent him money for the suits but was it his lawyer who arranged to buy these to Wade’s specifications? Did he order clothing online to be delivered to someone and brought to court?

I really wish someone would take it over and continue it or at least make a spin off. Santa Clarita Diet is genuinely one of the best TV shows and THEY LEFT US ON A CLIFF HANGER. I wouldve love to see how Joel would be as a "zombie".

I love the service as a whole, but who does Netflix think they are putting up an amazing show, only to cancel it at a cliff hanger. Why can’t Netflix make series instead of investing in one or two seasons of a show just to cancel it. I understand that it has to make money, but focus on quality not quantity. It’s so frustrating

So hear me out some random day i was scrolling through some recommendations someone recommended the lincoln lawyer and I watched it. Ngl it was so good! I would really love TV shows like lincoln lawyer not the law type ( even tho im completely ok with it ). I want a really good storyline with a good plot. Recommend me shows with a good storyline and plot. Thanks in adv

Hi guys,

I have recently started watching Korean movies and series and ngl they are amazing. So looking for some good korean movie recommendations that are your favorites

Karen seemed very unlikeable as a person. She was happy about her niece living with her after her divorce. Then when her new boyfriend came in, she asked her niece to move out as he didn't want her around. I thought maybe she saw some violent tendencies in the man and thought it would be better for her niece to be away from her turbulent love life.

But then it was shocking when she called her niece to come back and live with her for her protection!! Her niece was still in her teens, she knew how violent and dangerous her ex-boyfriend was and despite all that she put her niece in harms way!

For me, it would be certain genres and recommendation categories, like Teen, Teen TV Shows, and stuff like that.

Not just “show me less of this,” because Netflix still finds a way to sneak it back in. I mean a real setting where I can say: I’m not interested in this category, don’t recommend it, don’t put it on my homepage, don’t keep pushing it, simply NEVER show it again!

What’s the first thing you’d take down or change?

Did no one think to tell Kevin Hart how fucking cringe he looks on funny AF? It’s literally like 70% him flexing and stroking his ego and 30% jokes. Loving the 30% jokes! But Kevin Hart is like disgusting me. Ew brother.
