Dead to Me

This new show popped up on Netflix so we decided to watch an episode, 5 hours later the whole season came to an end. Really enjoyable dark comedy, drama, crime all wrapped up in to one. Great performances from both the ladies. If you are looking for the "who done it?" type of show you found it, however there is a slight twist. How does one reveal what they know. Enjoy it, looking forward to season 2.

Usually if I see Christina Applegate I'm already on board (have a soft spot for her since the "Married With Children" times) but damn she nailed this character, she shines in this role brilliantly! She absolutely owns every scene, floored me in the extra emotional scenes, such an underrated actress! She's so strong as a lead that for me the only properly competative actor on her level seemed to be (to my surprise) James Marsden and Brandon Scott. Great pacing, great story, great directing and acting and overall really great show! Highly recommend!

Up there with 'Fleabag' season 1 in it's genius. What appears to initially be an awkwardly dark comedy, slowly metamorphoses into a twisted conflict of ethics, dilemma and delivered by the most liberating performances from it's two leading ladies. This show will clear out at The Golden Globes. Who to choose? Applegate or Cardellini?

Do not start the Pilot unless you have 6 hours to spare. You WILL binge.

I was having a crappy day, so grabbed a coke and some chips and hit the couch, looking for a little distraction. I forgot about the clothes in the dryer and at 9pm I took a break to throw a sandwich together because I realized I had missed dinner. Kept me riveted right to the end, which made me laugh out loud. Great characters, human and beautifully flawed. The actors were perfectly cast. I don't think any follow-up season is needed, the ending is perfect just the way it is. I'm stingy about giving 9's and 10's, so an 8 is great in my book.

The new show starring Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini just had its full first season drop on Netflix and both leads totally knock it out of the park.

It's premise (Two widows meet at a support group meeting, and become close friends) is not something that sounded interesting to me, but I love Christina Applegate, always have since I had a crush on her in Married With Children, and since then, I have always enjoyed her work in movies and TV. So I gave it a chance. Well, I binge watched the entire season in one go.

Linda Cardellini is an actress I only know from the Scooby Doo movies and other supporting roles in comedies (Daddy's Home) and the MCU, I didn't really have an opinion of her, I didn't like or dislike her, but she is amazing here

Darkly comic at times and heartbreaking at others, it is utterly compelling and each episode just makes you want to watch the next. I highly recommend it, one of the best TV shows I have seen in a long time.
