Watch It Wednesday Part 3

This round of watching was so successful and brought

so many shows and movies to my attention that I don't

even feel the tiniest bit bad for wasting hours of my life

watching them all. Hahaha! Hope you enjoy my thoughts

on this round of Netflix trending!

Avatar: The Last Airbender WATCH

This show was definitely created for children, but as

an adult who has never watched the show before and

is thus not consumed by a gripping nostalgia, I still

found this show very entertaining and highly bingeable.

(It also helps that the episodes are only 20 minutes long!)

Sure there are some cheesy scenes that I may have

rolled my eyes at, but I remained invested and flew

through all the episodes very quickly.

The Wrong Missy SKIP

Well….the best thing I can say about this movie is

that I didn't completely hate it. Lol It had a good cast

with a lot of well known actors and a good comedic

storyline however for me it just fell flat. I felt like it tried

waaaay too hard to be funny making certain scenes just

come off as plain dumb. If you like (overly) stupid funny

this one is for you, but I certainly won't be watching it again.

Soul Surfer WATCH

This is an insanely emotional movie that had me in tears

more than once! The acting in this movie isn't the best

in the world (sorry Carrie, but I think you should stick

to singing) and there were some very cheesy parts, but I

absolutely loved the faith based aspects that made an

appearance throughout as well as the videos of the actual

Bethany Hamilton behind this inspiring true story.

Public Enemies WATCH

This movie is loooong, BUT it is worth every minute. It

has a killer cast of big name actors who all do an

amazing job with their individual parts as well as a

story full of sweet gangster action that is actually based

on a true story. Worth all 143 minutes in my opinion.

White Lines WATCH

The previews for this show made it look so stupid and

unappealing to me, but after the first episode I was

hooked. It has drugs, mystery, murder, even sprinklings

of comedy, all of which make it an extremely bingeable show.

History 101 WATCH

This show is sooo stinking interesting! I started the

first episode thinking it would be a background noise

show that would honestly only interest people like my dad

and huge history buffs, but boy was I wrong. This show

kept me completely entranced from the first minute with its

unique infographics and ability to tell the history in an

insanely entertaining way. You will be surprised by how

much you learn and how quickly you will fly through

the 10 episode season.

Dead to Me WATCH

So this show is...okay. Honestly, I am not sure what it

is, but for some reason I just cannot seem to get into

enough to make it a bingrable show for me. I still keep

returning to it because I am curious to see what will

happen, but I don't really feel anything while watching it.

No feelings of heartbreak, the "oh shit" moments don't

phase me at all, it is just a show that I kind of keep on for

background noise. However, with that being said I know

there are a lot of people out there who love this show so I

think it is at least worth giving it a chance. I will be

finishing both seasons….eventually.

*Update: I have made it to episode 7 of season 1 and I

have officially reached the point where I am compulsively

hitting "next episode" as soon as the end credits hit.

The Lovebirds SKIP

After watching the previews for this movie I was excited

to check out this comedy. While there were some laughable

moments I found this movie to be overall disappointing.

The main couple was extremely annoying to watch and

the storyline had so many gaping holes and stupid, unnecessary

points. Don't waste your time on this one.

Sweet Magnolias SKIP

This show is D U M B. Every episode is waaay too

long, uninteresting, and worse than any Hallmark

movie or show I have seen in ways of cheesiness and

bad acting. Netflix really dropped the ball on this original

series. Trust me you do not want to waste your time.

The Flash WATCH

I am a sucker for anything superhero related so it comes

as no surprise to me that I really enjoyed watching this

show. It follows the typical superhero show set up by

being a little cheesy at times, has good comedic bits, and

some entertaining action sequences. Definitely

another one I am keeping on my watch list.

Have you watched any of the shows and movies on

this list? What are your thoughts? What shows are on

your watch list? On your skip list?
