Happy Gilmore is streaming now on Netflix.
Bill Burr: You People Are All The Same
Acerbic comedian Bill Burr (Breaking Bad) takes the stage in this comedy special and talks about everything from plastic surgery to reality TV. Always cranky and never apologetic his conversational tone and detailed stories always deliver a lot of laughs.
Anne with an E: Season 2 Netflix Original
Based on the book by L.M. Montgomery and the film that came after, this reimagining of the classic story is a little different. But in a terrific way. It’s not put through a warm and fuzzy sunshine filter. It’s very real and very captivating. Amybeth McNulty shines in her role as Anne and everything from the costumes to the locations is gorgeous. This series deserves a spot in your watchlist.
Jurassic Park
Nothing beats the original and this one was the best. Join Dr. Grant and friends on their fright-filled romp through the world’s worst amusement park. They’ve spared no expense.
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee: Season 5 Netflix Original
The show premise is simple: Jerry Seinfeld picks up his friends in cars and they go get coffee. Along the way, we get to see classic cars, hear great conversation, and have a few laughs. The episodes are short so it’s great if you’re winding down for a few minutes.
Real Genius
Val Kilmer stars in this movie about a whiz kid who heads off to college at a very young age. When he meets his genius roommate (Kilmer) he discovers life at school is going to be much harder than he realized. As they work on a project together, they uncover a secret plan and realize they have both been used to make a deadly weapon. This is a classic comedy that doesn’t get its due.
Somebody Feed Phil: Season 2 Netflix Original
Phil Rosenthal takes his friends and family around the world to sample the cuisine and observe the culture. Rosenthal seems like he always has a dad joke in his back pocket and I just love that. He is enthusiastic and open and always willing to learn. Every episode is upbeat and happy and has a feeling of joy. I never knew it was possible to get the warm fuzzies from a food show. This one is a winner.
The Comedy Lineup: Season 1 Netflix Original
Netflix continues to be at the forefront of comedy, this time bringing us a diverse group of up and coming comedians. Remember Def Comedy Jam? It sort of feels like that. The episodes are short, showcasing each comedian’s routine in a comedy club. They have 15 minutes to win over the audience. I like that it isn’t slick or overly produced, it’s just comedians doing what they do.
