| 2 | Best Medicine | Comedy, Drama | Netflix | 2026/09 |
| N | This show from Fox looked like it might have potential. Unfortunately the main character is uptight and frustrating as the new doctor working in a small town. There are so many quirky and annoying characters in the town. The sheriff's character is especially dumb. We have continued to watch episodes even though each one has solidified that this show is a klunker. | |||
| 3.5 | It's Not Like That | Comedy, Drama, Family, Romance | Amazon | 2026/09 |
| M | Started watching this due to the trailer. Seemed like a typical family drama show. Did not realize the series was produced by a studio looking to promote family values. There was a bit more religion sprinkled throughout the show than we expected. Most of the acting was good but one character/actor was annoying. We were disappointed whenever he was in a scene. Season ended on an interesting cliffhanger. | |||
| 2 | Good Fortune | Comedy, Fantasy | Amazon | 2026/09 |
| M | Watched this due to the main cast members: Keanu Reeves, Aziz Ansari, and Seth Rogan. Wasn't sure if it would be a dumb stoner movie but it tried to be a well-meaning character redemption story. The plot was fairly vanilla and could have been better. | |||
| 4 | Don't Say Good Luck | Drama, Musical | Netflix | 2026/09 |
| Y | This movie was a pleasant surprise. The main actress is Adam Sandler's daughter. She held her own as a high school student performing in the Waitress musical. There were a number of good performances by the cast. It was definitely a tear jerker at times. | |||
| 1 | The Fabulous Four | Comedy | Netflix | 2026/09 |
| N | This was such a waste of some talented actresses. Cannot believe we watched the whole movie. The dialog and plot were a mess. Have no idea how this movie was perceived when it was released in 2024. Had never heard about it, now we know why. | |||
| 3 | Kelsey Cook: Happy Hour | Stand-up, Comedy | Netflix | 2026/08 |
| Y | Could have sworn we had seen a Kelsey Cook comedy special before but did not find a prior review. We watched her 2026 special and enjoyed her style. She was funny without resorting to vulgar humor like some other female comics. | |||
| 2.5 | Sterling Point | Teen romance, Drama | Amazon | 2026/08 |
| Y | This teen-focused show felt similar to The Summer I Turned Pretty. The cast was mostly teenagers who were involved in life drama that seemed overly complex. Lots of unbelievable scenarios, in our opinion. We obviously are not the target audience. We watched the whole series though. | |||
| 2.5 | Afterlife of the Party | Comedy, Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2026/08 |
| Y | We were looking for something light and funny so gave this movie with Victoria Justice a try. It was silly in some respects but was an okay romantic comedy. | |||
| 2 | Tig Notaro: Drawn | Stand-up, Comedy, Animation | HBO | 2026/08 |
| M | This comedy special showed up right after watching an earlier Tig Notaro show. It was unique because the whole special was animated. Sometimes the animation added to the comedy, sometimes it was distracting. Gave it a maybe recommendation due to the novelty of the animation. | |||
| 2.5 | Tig Notaro: Boyish Girl Interrupted | Stand-up, Comedy | HBO | 2026/08 |
| M | We like Tig Notaro and decided to watch this old special from 2015. Eventually we realized we had seen it before. It was okay so we watched the whole thing. | |||
| 2 | The Drama | Dark Comedy, Drama, Romance | HBO | 2026/08 |
| N | Don't know why this is listed as a comedy. We didn't find any of the movie funny. It was a drama about a relationship that takes some dark turns. | |||
| 4.5 | Spider-Man: Brand New Day | Superhero, Action, Marvel | Theater | 2026/07 |
| Y | Tom Holland does a good job playing the Spider-Man character. The 4th movie delivered insights into the life of Peter Parker after the events of the 3rd movie. It was interesting seeing Peter get older and grappling with loneliness. There were a few surprise characters in the movie. I won't give away any spoilers. Don't bother sitting through the credits for the end scene, it was not worth the wait. | |||
| 3 | 3 Body Problem | Sci-Fi, Adventure, Drama | Netflix | 2026/07 |
| M | This 2024 series had some unexpected twists. It was interesting how some of the scientist characters were interconnected. I was sorry when the last episode was over but a second season is being released later this year. | |||
| 2 | The Hawk | Comedy, Sport | Netflix | 2026/07 |
| M | Decided to give this a try after hearing Molly Shannon was in the cast along with Will Ferrell. The first episode had us wondering if this was going to be too stupid to watch. We took a break after three episodes. Finally finished the show, but it was pretty silly. | |||
| 2.5 | The Dink | Comedy, Romance, Sport | Apple+ | 2026/07 |
| M | Watched this because Jake Johnson was the lead and we like pickleball. Didn't know Mary Steenburgen was in the cast. The character played by Aaron Chen was a bit annoying. Ed Harris was also a bit much as an overbearing dad. The movie started with tennis, moved to pickleball then seemed to become a country music story. It was entertaining if you went into it with low expectations. | |||
| 2.5 | Shrill | Quirky comedy, Drama | Netflix | 2026/07 |
| M | Think we watched the first season of this show years ago but did not finish it. We gave the show another chance due to Aidy Bryant. There were some good episodes and a few not so great. It is definitely a quirky show. One of the boyfriend characters is annoying. Many of the episodes ended at an unusual point. Good thing you can just binge as many episodes as you want. | |||
| 3.5 | Ride or Die | Action, Adventure, Comedy | Amazon | 2026/07 |
| Y | Watched this show because we like Octavia Spencer and Hannah Waddingham. The story felt like a James Bond movie at times. Hanna Waddingham is an assassin who has a friendship with someone who does not know her true story. The interaction between the two main characters was entertaining. | |||
| 3 | Josh Johnson: Symphony | Comedy | HBO | 2026/07 |
| Y | We stumbled across this comedy special because it was on after another movie ended. I like Josh Johnson and decided to keep it playing. This was an interesting special because he threw in some random performers playing instruments. Josh was funny but also insightful about a number of things. I was impressed at the end of the special by his comment about life and the surprise symphony. | |||
| 3 | Crazy, Stupid, Love. | Comedy, Drama, Romance | HBO | 2026/07 |
| Y | Never saw this movie when it was released in 2011. Might have caught a few scenes over the years. The movie has a great cast so we decided to check it out. Steve Carell was good as the main character who has his life turned upside down in the first scene. Ryan Gosling played a swarmy role as someone who helps Steve get back on his feet. There are some interesting twists in the story that I will not spoil, in case you haven't seen the movie yet. | |||
| 2 | Here | Drama | Netflix | 2026/07 |
| M | The movie takes place using a single cameral angle over history. It was an interesting concept but the implementation disjointed at times. We did not like the transitions between scenes and how the story kept jumping around time. Tom Hanks and Robin Wright were okay as the main characters. Paul Bettany had a large role too but we did not like his character, especially as the story progressed. We gave Robert Zemeckis credit for trying something different but it was not a great movie in our opinion. | |||
