My daughter loves this series! Pup Academy follows a group puppies who attend an academy to learn how to become dogs. The series has great messages throughout including being kind and helping others. Also, you cannot go wrong with talking dogs! The actors themselves are great too, and the series is a lot of fun for kids and adults to watch together.

Also, I read a few reviews that gave Pup Academy a low rating because it rips off Harry Potter, and I definitely do not agree. Sure you do have a magical school for puppies, but there are plenty of other movies and series that involve magic! So I would recommend not listening to those reviews and giving Pup Academy a watch.

Bodkin has an interesting premise with an investigative journalist more or less being forced to help an American podcaster investigate a disappearance of 3 individuals years earlier in the small town of Bodkin in Ireland. I have no complaints about the acting as it was spot on. However, the series is quite slow. You do learn more about the disappearances as the series progresses, but I found myself struggling just to finish it to the end due to the pacing. The series might be worth a watch though if you are interested in mysteries or thrillers with moments of dark comedy. However, if you are not keen on slower paced series, I would give it a pass.

Holidate follows Sloane and Jackson who are fed up with being single on the holidays, and they agree to be each other's platonic date for all the holidays. The movie begins on Christmas, goes through all the holidays, and ends on Christmas, so it is appropriate to watch around Christmastime and any other holiday as well. The plot of Holidate is predictable, but the story is cute and a lot of fun. Emma Roberts was wonderful as Sloane as well as Luke Bracey as Jackson. Holidate is worth watching if you are wanting to see a Christmas movie that is different from all the other Christmas romance movies out there.
