Netflix : Series and Films #TheBeautyAgenda
Hello, once again freaks!
Don't judge me. It's been a long time since I've seen a man this fine in any television series or movie. Anyways, you should also know that Cable Girls tackles many issues, one of which includes domestic violence. The rest you will know once you watch. It's also in Spanish so make sure you turn on English subtitles if you have no idea what they're saying.
2. House of Flowers
With House of Flowers, I honestly didn't know what to expect. I was overcome with the thought that this could either be a masterpiece or your average soapy telenovela. The director, Manolo Caro, is known for being one of Mexico's best filmmakers alongside the likes of Guillermo del Toro and Alfonso Cuaron. From what I know, he has yet to crossover to Hollywood. The House of Flowers is very unique. You'll find that it is very modern and a lot more daring than the telenovelas you'll find on Univision or Telemundo. It is about a rich family from Mexico that owns a shop called, you guessed it: The House of Flowers. The series follows the family through various trials and tribulations. It is full of humor and real life happenings. You'll also enjoy the colorful visuals. This is also in Spanish, but with a sprinkle of English here and there.
3. Club of Crows
Club of Crows is for those that are looking for something to binge watch that will make them laugh a lot and also make them wonder what in the world they are watching. The two leads are the offspring of the owner of a football club called the Cuervos (crows in english). They battle over who will officially take over their father's company and try to sabotage one another. There is also a spin-off titled, "The Ballad of Hugo Sanchez" starring one of the more hilarious characters.
Both the male and female lead were annoying, however I could not stop watching. Did Netflix cast some sort of spell on me or was this actually good? Either way, all you need to know is that the main lead is mega creepy and that this is definitely worth watching.
This is a reality TV show about a group of strangers that live together under one big roof while being filmed. They literally live in a mansion for FREE. It basically showcases how they live together and build relationships that can either be long lasting or tumultuous. A panel, as shown above, basically act in part of the viewers by reviewing and giving their opinion on what they have watched. There are many seasons which include Opening New Doors; one of the most recent. Here is one of the most funniest panel members as well as the one that the western audience (including me) seem to enjoy watching the most for his honest opinions:
6. Nailed It
If you're looking for a baking show that's feel-good and will make you feel a lot better about your baking skills then this is the one. You may find it to be corny at times, but at the end of the day you can't help, but crack a smile. For more professional baking, watch Sugar Rush.
7. Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso (There Is No Paradise Without Boobs)
This series is set in Colombia in a time where drug cartels continue to rule. The main lead and her group of friends are young, impressionable girls who fall into the drug lifestyle through escorting and prostitution. Catalina, the main lead, tries her best to get plastic surgery in an attempt to look more pretty and reach the level of her group of friends. It'll suck you right in, baby.
8. Jane the Virgin
You're welcome.
9. New Girl
This television series has many seasons hence why I decided not to keep watching it. It's still pretty good though, so don't immediately take it as me saying that it's terrible when it's not. I'll probably finish watching this later in my adulthood, but for now I'm good.
10. Friends From College
I don't know why I decided to watch this series. This is something that an older audience would probably enjoy more. This is basically about a group of old ivy league students who meet again years after graduation. It's filmed in New York so if you are one of those people that enjoy watching a series based in New York, then this is one to watch. It could be better. At times it's a bit bland, but I attribute it to my youth, so who knows? You might enjoy it more than I did (I did end up watching both seasons).
11. How To Get Over A Breakup
I was really excited to watch this especially as I was in dire need of watching a nice romantic comedy. Unfortunately, this did nothing for me. I ended up getting bored right at the beginning and kept wondering whether or not it would get better as time went by. To be honest, I couldn't even finish watching it. I tried giving it a chance again, but it really did nothing for me. All it did was make me desperate enough to skip through to see whether or not it would be worth it to continue watching. Maybe you'll like it more than me?
12. Catfight
This is a movie that you'll either hate or love. It's about two enemies who go through life trying to one up one another. They fight a lot. To this day, I have no idea what the whole purpose of this movie was. All I know is that for some weird reason, I really liked it. Sandra Oh stars in this and if you haven't watched "Killing Eve" yet, what are you waiting for?
13. Monster In Law
This is a cute and romantic film. That's all you need to know.
14. Unbreakable Kimmy Shmidt
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is about a young woman that has to rediscover life again after living underground as a mole woman since she was a child. She moves to New York where she meets friends and begins a comedic journey through adulthood in the city. It is absolutely ridiculous. You will love it.
15. The Hookup Plan
The Hookup Plan is basically about a young woman in France whose friend sets her up to date a male gigolo. She falls in love hopelessly. Do watch if you are bored, just make sure to turn on the subtitles.
16. Gossip Girl
This series made me feel as though I were missing something. Don't get me wrong it's a good show, but somewhere along the line it became a bit of a bore to watch. I was left hoping that some of the characters got the redemption and revenge they deserved. However, I can sort of understand why the people who were in charge of making this would leave the story line and characters in such a way.
17. How To Get Away With Murder
When I say watch this show, I mean WATCH this show. The story line is incredibly good and you'll find yourself binge watching this before you know it. The casting is good, the story is good, everything about this is GOOD. It is truly a masterpiece.
18. Sense8
One of the first Netflix series I watched, Sense8 really provides a lot of people with a good amount of romance, action, and more. This was cancelled before it could reach its full potential, however you'll still enjoy watching this sci-fi series. This might not be everyone's cup of tea, though.
19. Chewing Gum
This is a fairly odd, yet humorous series that takes place in the United Kingdom. It follows a young woman from a religious family that deals with issues like virginity among other things. If you want to be sucked into a black hole then this is the series you should watch. Unfortunately, it only has two seasons.
20. Mona Lisa Smile
This was a really good film especially for those that want to watch something about a group of young women as they learn about independence amongst other things. I honestly enjoyed watching this more than Pretty Woman. Pretty Woman just didn't do anything for me if I'm honest.
There are a lot more films and series on Netflix that I have watched, but sadly for you, I simply am tired and must get my beauty rest. You can enjoy watching what I have provided you until I feel like making another one. Until we meet again, Au Revoir!
Honorable Mention:
This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Amelie is a film that I would recommend to curious introverts and extroverts alike. The concept and story line of the film is quirky and unique. Only people with good taste are capable of enjoying this film.
Regrettably, this is no longer available on Netflix. Nevertheless, you can still stream it online through Amazon. So, Shoo! Stream away.
It's been a few months since I've posted on this boring little site that no one seems to read judging by the lack of views and comments on this page. However, this has not made me feel in any way disappointed or devastated. In fact, I am relieved that absolutely no one has found themselves dragged into this black hole. You should also know that while I have been gone, I've once again rediscovered the joy of skincare and my ego is absolutely bursting. Yes, that was quite a random comment, but I am a bit of a narcissist.
While sitting on my bed with my thumb and index finger smeared in flaming hot Funyuns debris, I came up with the brilliant idea of gifting you with the shows and movies that have converted my brain to the level of that of Einstein's as well as deteriorated it to the level of that of a rock. Make sure to take the quiz at the end for an updated list of what you should watch. Scroll through after clicking view responses for Feedback on what you should watch.
1. Cable Girls
Cable Girls really exceeded my expectations. I'd seen it trending, but never actually clicked on it. It takes place in the past where flappers were a thing, so basically sometime in the 1920's. If you like a story consisting of female friendship, crime, mystery, romance amid other things, then you will definitely enjoy this. It's also important to mention that the two main leads are pretty good looking, although Francisco is the only one that matters.
Francisco:
Don't judge me. It's been a long time since I've seen a man this fine in any television series or movie. Anyways, you should also know that Cable Girls tackles many issues, one of which includes domestic violence. The rest you will know once you watch. It's also in Spanish so make sure you turn on English subtitles if you have no idea what they're saying.

8. Jane the Virgin
Jane is a young college student when she becomes accidentally inseminated with the child of the son of a rich hotel owner.You can pretty much guess what happens if we're honest. It's last season is coming really soon so make sure to watch it as soon as you can.
