Beef

Kicking off Quickly, The smallest of interactions. Escalates into A full-scale beef very well paced. First episode makes you wonder will they be able to keep it up for the series. The beef is cooked perfectly lots of twists and turns. Netflix often have these filler episodes just to make 10. This doesn't feel like it has any filler with the new angle each episode and a cliff hanger making it tough to not binge watch the next one. This is a strong offering from Netflix with Steven Yeun from the walking dead and A lady, I formally known as a comedian Ali Wong proving to be quite the actress with a strong supporting cast one of the best things I've seen on Netflix for awhile.

Beef was actually a pretty good show. I didn't know much about it but saw it as the #1 show on Netflix and thought the trailer looked pretty funny too. Then after reading the mostly positive reviews from both critics and audiences I was sold. It currently has a 99% on Rotten Tomatoes. This series not only met my expectations but surpassed them in every way. I don't necessarily think this is strictly a comedy, it's equal parts comedy and drama. The one thing it is though is addicting. I couldn't stop watching. The episodes are only around 30 minutes apiece so it's an easy show to binge. If you're looking for a new show try this one. You won't be disappointed.

Saw this on the top of Netflix and ended up watching it all in one sitting.

I am obsessed with this show. I don't think I've ever watched anything like it. Steven Yuen was amazing, especially as I'm a walking dead fan.

The twists and turns and the constant train crashes that happen are insane. But also it looks at a more deeper level of the rawness of humans and really delves into some scary truths about happiness and never knowing yourself. One of my favourite shows this year, loved everything and don't really have anything negative to say.

Honestly watch it and I promise. You won't be disappointed!

I had no idea whatsoever about this series, didn't recognize the actors, didn't like the name of the series, yet it kept being shown to me in my suggested "watch next" lists and sometimes they get it right. This is a fabulous series, it's all about being human in so many ways I can't begin to explain it. It's centered around an Asian American cast and there are a few things I suspect I didn't get but generally you can be any walk of life and totally appreciate this drama. I loved it and have recommended it to several friends if they haven't watched it yet. Very real life dialogue, some quirky "nothing but everyday life" moments, the actors are great. I can't recommend this more. Know ahead of time there is some sarcasm which I know some people don't appreciate, but it works well. Watch this now. DRAMA. It's not a comedy!!! Lighthearted drama though and great messages in this flick.

This was a really good series. I sat down to watch one episode and I wound up on my butt for 5 hours until it was over. I think I would describe it as a dark comedy. I don't like anything but I liked this one. Although almost the entire cast is asian, there is no casting of non-Asians as bad. (I wrongfully assumed this was the direction this series would take.).

Now here's the part that scares me: as Netflix does, when they get a popular series they come back with a season 2, 3, 4, and maybe 5. DON'T DO IT!! There's very few places for a second season to go. If you do you're going to destroy the series.
