I quite enjoyed it. Recommend you stick to English subtitles and the original Korean audio track. I tried the English dubbing and lasted a quarter of the first episode.

Every hockey fan needs to watch the documentary Untold: crime and penalties

I don’t want to spoil anything . Slap shot meets Sopranos with Brent Gretzky thrown in for good measures

Don’t know how I didn’t know about this story

Squidgame is good, if you like despicable characters.

We love Murdoch Mysteries. I love how they bring in fictional historical characters such as Sherlock Holmes and real ones such as Bat Masterson. It’s so well done.

Untold - Crimes and Penalties - Wasn't that hilarious? I laughed so much. Absolutely great story.

We crushed the Chestnut Man - what a great show. Danish - six episodes, about a serial killer.

We’re loving Murdoch Mysteries. How did I not get into it for all those years. Cst. George Crabtree is my favourite.

I love all of the historical references and characters they bring in. We just saw The Wealthy Barber’s David Chilton playing a barber giving investment advice; it was hilarious. I have a crush on actress Helene Joy.

Edit: Crabtree, not Crabapple…because brain fart.

Midnight Mass was awesome. Loved it. Everything Mike Flanagan has done for Netflix has been great.

Crabtree Love Crabtree, but my other favorite character is Terrance Meyers the government spy. he's awesome.

tons of actors from older Canadian shows show up.
for example Patrick McKenna from the Red Green Show (harold green) is on a couple episodes.

It’s not really super gory - I have only watched the first episode though. Better to watch without english audio though. The english dubbing was not great.

This is also true, but it doesn't effect me because my remote allows me to skip ahead 10 seconds at a time. I'm always dashing through boring parts of T.V shows.

Stay tuned to the very last frame of the slideshow during the credits. You'll be happy you did.

Not his best but still quite good.

It wasn’t as funny as Sticks & Stones but was more philosophical, which I’ll give him props for. It’s tough to blend comedy and serious topics that way. Carlin is the only other guy in recent memory who was any good at it.
