3 Sweet Magnolias: Season 5 Drama, Romance Netflix 2026/06
M It took us a little time to get into Season 5. The characters continue to have soap opera level drama in relationships and life events. Some of the characters have pat answers to life issues which started to get annoying. The show has a positive vibe and the main characters work to lift up each other.
3.5 The Way Home Tragedy, Drama Netflix 2026/06
Y We started watching this Hallmark original show on Netflix. The first three seasons were available there. The story follows family drama across multiple generations. There are time travelling elements that at first seemed novel but eventually got a bit silly, We were so invested in the characters that we subscripted to Hallmark+ to watch season 4, which ended in June 2026. They tied up the story lines in the last episode. Hallmark announced there would not be a 5th season.
3 Miss You, Love You Drama HBO 2026/06
Y We watched this because Allison Janney was one of the leads. It was definitely a drama which explored grief and relationships. Andrew Rannells did a fantastic job with his role.
3 Patton Oswalt: Tea & Scotch Comedy Other 2026/06
Y We watched Patton's latest comedy special on You Tube. It was pretty good.
2.5 St. Denis Medical - Season 1 Mockumentary, Comedy Netflix 2026/06
M We started watching this hospital mockumentary for something light. Some of the characters are engaging and some are annoying. It had a lot of talking to the camera moments like The Office.
2.5 Office Romance Romance, Comedy Netflix 2026/06
M We really wanted this movie to be good since we liked Brett Goldstein in Ted Lasso and Shrinking. He wrote this movie with Jennifer Lopez in mind as the lead. There were quite a few cringe-worthy scenes that had us shaking our heads. Had to give it a Maybe recommendation.
3 The Kissing Booth 3 Romance, Comedy, Teen Drama Netflix 2026/06
Y The third installment of the Kissing Booth picks up right after the second movie. The story focused on the summer before the two best friends go off to college. There is lots of teen drama, like the other movies. The story had a good ending. They even jumped ahead 6 years to give some closure on where the characters ended up in life.
3 The Kissing Booth 2 Romance, Comedy, Teen Drama Netflix 2026/05
Y We finally got around to watching the second movie in this trilogy. It was good but this time I noticed the two main characters seem very different in age. The girl is supposed to be a senior in high school and the boy is a freshman in college. The girl looks like a freshman in high school and the boy seemed like a college senior. The actors are 4 years apart in real life. The character of Marco was interesting. Looks like he will be in the third movie.
4 The Four Seasons - Season 2 Comedy, Romance Netflix 2026/05
Y We watched the 8 episodes in two days. The first episode felt a bit awkward and we weren't sure it would be as good. Each character seemed to have an episode that let them shine. There were definitely some ups and downs for the characters as they dealt with changes in relationships and life situations.
4 The Boys: Season 5 Action, Comedy, Crime Amazon 2026/05
Y The last season of The Boys was good. They tied up some of the long-standing plot threads. It continued to have over-the-top violence so it is not for everyone. If you have watched the prior 4 seasons then you shouldn't miss this one.
4 Hacks: Season 5 Comedy, Drama Max 2026/05
Y Season 5 of Hacks was a good finale for the characters. We enjoyed this season better than the last one. The last episode looked like it was going to be a downer but they swerved at the end.
3 Marty, Life Is Short Biography, Documentary Netflix 2026/05
Y Historically we were not fans of Martin Short. That changed around the time Only Murders in the Building was released. This documentary covered a lot about Marty's life, including his marriage. Did not realize how many different things he had been involved with over the years. It was amazing to see how connected he was with many talented people. There were a few scenes which went on longer than necessary but overall it was an interesting view into his life.
2.5 Vladimir Dark Comedy, Drama Netflix 2026/05
M This looked interesting from the preview. We watched all eight episodes but not sure it was worth it. Rachel Weisz is constantly breaking the fourth wall and talking directly to the viewers. The characters were intense at times and not very likable. We weren't really cheering for anyone in the show which made it a challenge to stay engaged.
2 Ladies First Satire, Comedy Netflix 2026/05
M Not a huge Sacha Baron Cohen fan but I thought he was good in this role. The premise is that a male chauvinist is transported to a alternate universe with a matriarchal society. He has to deal with reverse discrimination and learn why he was such a jerk before returning. My wife didn't care for the movie and stopped watching soon after it started.
2.5 SmartLess: On the Road Comedy, Documentary HBO 2026/05
M We never listened to the SmartLess podcast. Stumbled upon this documentary on HBO. It was filmed in 2023, so they were still dealing with some pandemic related precautions. We enjoyed the banter between Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett. The documentary is more about the travel between cities and what they were going to eat. There were some short scenes from the actual shows.
3.5 Margo's Got Money Troubles Comedy, Drama Apple+ 2026/05
M We decided to try something different. This show looked a bit crazy compared to our normal viewing activity. There is a good cast and Elle Fanning is great in the title role. Not every episode was a winner. The story went down some strange paths too.
2.5 Lisa Ann Walter: It Was an Accident Comedy Hulu 2026/05
M We enjoyed Lisa Ann Walter on Abbott Elementary. Decided to give her comedy special a try. It started off well but lost some momentum halfway through. Her bit at the end regarding "It Was an Accident" had potential but ran a little too long.
3 You, Always Romantic Comedy Netflix 2026/05
M This felt like a typical Hallmark movie, although it isn't from Hallmark. The story has a dynamic between friends who should be more than friends. The third character that is introduced to shake things up is a bit annoying. It was entertaining for a lighthearted rom-com.
2.5 Sarah Millican: Late Bloomer Comedy Netflix 2026/05
M Normally I enjoy Sarah Millican's comedy specials. This one was not the best. She did her normal crowd work, which was fine. For some reason I expected her material to be better.
4.5 Rooster Comedy HBO 2026/05
Y Enjoyable comedy series starring Steve Carell. The story takes place in a university setting. He is a pulp fiction writer who ends up teaching a semester. Lots of interesting characters and some good chuckles. There is also some drama mixed in. Glad to hear Rooster has been renewed for a second season.
