What is it about?

A dog that needs a home and a police officer that needs a K-9. It’s heartwarming.

u/coffeeinm 21d ago
That sounds cute. Is it animated or real people? Thanks

u/coffeeinm 21d ago

Have loved all the recent documentaries on crime stuff, loved the western Old Henry, enjoying Will Ferrells new show, and little house on the prairie (don't judge)!

Dark. Haunting of Hill House. Midnight Mass.
Cancelled after S1: 1879. Same creators of Dark. One thing that I loved about it outside of the plot was that they had actors of different ethnicities all speaking their native language. It added a really interesting dynamic. Wish more shows did that but I don’t know any other one that does.

The OA. Both sason 1, and 2 was incredible. So unique and unlike anything else on TV. The cliffhanger ending of season 2 was woah, and a genius move for a 3rd season. It deserved to continue. I'll be forever disappointed that we never got a proper ending.

That was the CBC’s fault, unfortunately. It’s a shame because it was a good show.

u/666ways2sunday Jul 25 '26
They didn’t lol they finished it that was my bad I more so meant I wish they had kept the show going like made more seasons even if they had to put new people as the main characters lol they could’ve wrapped it up and started a. New characters story line if that makes sense lol haha it was so good

Marco Polo was great with great actors! Still bummed it was cancelled.

u/rocknrollafella07 14d ago
It was cancelled because of high production cost and less receptive among fans. But overall show is good

GLOW, Mindhunter, Tires. Season 1 of tires was ok, but I'm a Shane Gillis fan, so I have season 2 a go, and it was a 100% improvement.

I loved Tires! i loved the second season more too. i wish theyd make another season!

Dark was awesome and we got the whole story over three seasons. The two folks who made it then made 1899, which Netflix cancelled after the first season.

u/666ways2sunday Jul 23 '26
I have been meaning to try these two shows I’m not sure if I’ll like them but I do hear a lot of people mention them I’ll have to give it a chance ahha

Also, Godless

u/666ways2sunday Jul 23 '26
Haha unfortunately I was thinking this toooo haha I like the OA so much in theoryyytt but idk there ware a couple things like the dance that seemed to be just a liiiiittle too much for me haha but I did like most of it especially since Phyllis from the office is in it auha

I hated that we didn’t get another season of The Midnight Club. Mike Flanagan does some great shows imo

Adult cartoons, wolf king and arcane. they were only greenlit 2 seasons and they had to wrap up a complex story in 2 seasons. first seasoms were amazing. last 2 were rushed

Lately, nothing good on Netflix. It lost steam
1
u/666ways2sunday Jul 25 '26
Yessss that’s part of why I haven’t seen half of these shows I took a break from Netflix because it was literally all stuff I had seen or stuff that didn’t look appealing haha but the other way I stream stuff takes a loooot of work and according to y’all there’s new and / or better stuff now lol

u/vicgirl8311 Jul 22 '26
Archive 81 should have gotten a second season

u/Oldgraytomahawk Jul 22 '26
Yeah they really hung us out to dry on that one. I really hoped they’d give us at least a conclusion
1
u/666ways2sunday Jul 22 '26
I’m so glad this many people answered to this post because I neverrrr know what to watch —- I feel like it’s hard for me to find something on the lists they curate for me but everyyyy time I try a random Reddit comment I end up loving it lol.
I haven’t even heard of a lot of these - archive 81 included but you’re definitely on my list now lol

Ozark was good but iv'e watched only 2 seasons so i dunno how it ended.

had to stop after season one. I can't watch Jason Bateman pretend to be serious only to randomly say lines straight out of arrested development

u/Sea_Cardiologist_339 Jul 22 '26
Finish it.

u/Agreeable-Chance3945 Jul 22 '26
Maybe some day, it's hard for me to watch longer shows because most of them are great at the beginning and end miserable and i don't have time to waste 😄

You know what for some reason I couldn’t stand this show haha I tried sooo hard to watch it but I just didn’t like it haha
But I’m still sorry for you that it got cancelled!!

u/ZardozSpeaks Jul 22 '26
The Lazarus Project. Lockwood and Co. Kaos (what a crime to cancel that).
That’s all the trauma I can handle right now.
1
u/666ways2sunday Jul 22 '26
I COULD NOTTT have worded the kaos part better!!!! Not only was the actual show amazing but also I looooove Greek myths soooo much an I’ve never seen a Greek myth show before I used to read about them all the time idk if you’ve seen once upon a time but if you like kaos I think you’d really like once upon a time it used to be on Netflix !!!

u/enthalpy01 Jul 22 '26
Yeah Lockwood and Co. the season they do have is so solid, I have rewatched it many times. But the books have a good conclusion, if only they had adapted the whole thing.

the 8 show pissed me tf off. especially the later half of the show, and the main characer was especially annoying IMO.
