| 3 | The Kissing Booth 2 | Romantic Comedy | 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. | |||
| 4 | Remarkably Bright Creatures | Drama | Netflix | 2026/05 |
| Y | Great movie with Sally Field in the lead role. It was a good drama with some interesting turns. One of the main characters in the movie is an octopus. | |||
| 4 | Mother's Day | Comedy, Drama, Romance | Netflix | 2026/05 |
| Y | Had seen parts of this movie multiple times. Watched the whole movie on the eve of Mother's Day. There were a lot of familiar actors in this 2016 romantic comedy. There were a few scenes that caused us both to get teary. There were also a few scenes that made us roll our eyes. Overall it was entertaining and worth watching. | |||
| 3 | Veronica Mars (movie) | Crime, Drama, Mystery | Netflix | 2026/05 |
| M | We watched the TV series first. This 2014 movie became available on Netflix later. The story takes place between seasons 3 and 4 of the TC show. It explains how Veronica ended back in Neptune. The movie was okay but had us shaking our heads a few times. There was a funny cameo with Kristen Bell's husband in real life. The movie brought back a lot of characters from the first three seasons. | |||
| 3 | Running Point - Season 2 | Comedy, Sport, Basketball | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| Y | We were happy to see the show back for a second season. Kate Hudson is still good but the other actors are still annoying. We don't understand why the writers continue to make the bother's characters do stupid things. Interesting twist at the end to setup the next season. | |||
| 2.5 | Wicked: For Good | Musical. Drama, Romance | Other | 2026/04 |
| M | Had to watch this on Peacock streaming service, so annoying. There were classic songs from the Wicked musical plus some new ones. We would have preferred a single movie with a tighter narrative. The second movie had more extra scenes than was necessary to complete the story. It was interesting to see how they thread some elements from the original Wizard of Oz movie into the Wicked story. | |||
| 2 | Roommates | Comedy | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | We were expecting this to be a silly movie and that was the case. The crazy interactions between the two roommates was annoying at times. The ending was a bit much. The way they tied up loose ends in the epilogue was trite. | |||
| 3 | Noah Kahan: Out of Body | Documentary, Music | Netflix | 2026/04 |
| M | The documentary was interesting but also dragged at times. Thought there would be more in-depth details. It was a glimpse into Noah's life after the success of Stick Season and how he was dealing with fame. | |||
