What Did Jack Do - a short film by/starring David Lynch (sporting fabulous hair!) where he plays a detective interrogating a talking monkey. Yes, really. It's really bizarre. Medical Police - goofy comedy, thought it was pretty funny throughout. I'm going to have to watch this Messiah everyone's talking about...

Hubby loved Messiah, I have it on my list, maybe next. Please let us know what you think. He likes what I like but, I only like about half of what he likes.

I'm starting the Messiah. Finished epi 1 heading into epi 2. I think I noticed in the back end quick credits that Mark Burnett is involved. That would say a lot to the premise as he makes Christian based movies.

Finished season 6 of Grace and Frankie last night. I thought that season 5 lagged a bit, but they got back to their normal fun pace this season! I liked that they were willing to let the characters advance in ways that challenge the show's format and figured out how to work around it.

That would say a lot to the premise as he makes Christian based movies. Mark Burnett and Roma Downey together. It's stirring up controversy too: The Royal Film Commission of Jordan has called on Netflix to ban the drama series “Messiah,” which is produced by Hollywood Christian couple Mark Burnett and Roma Downey, in the predominantly Muslim country, claiming the “content of the series could be largely perceived or interpreted as infringing on the sanctity of religion.”

Re: Messiah - they must have a second season and soon!!!!! {Spoiler} Anyway, where the plane went down and where it was found do not mesh. It lost contact in Spain and we see the wreckage in an Arab country where the goat herder lives. He also revives the notion of a true Messiah....where is season 2???

Sadly, these series usually have their seasons a year apart and season one was just released a couple of weeks ago. I’m rewatching it already after hearing a lot of things I missed the first time around.

I sure wouldn’t describe it as a Christian movie. I think it's different to everyone who watches it. I've heard it described that way. Or , messiah is the anti christ, and that's what I like about it.

I would say that’s the main message... what you bring to it is the lens that gives it meaning.

Just what "he" preaches in the show - everyone interprets their relationship to God which is what threw the preacher. He thought he was hearing God, but he was looking to an idol who wouldn't give him anything.

Messiah series - A CIA officer investigates a charismatic figure whose followers believe he can perform miracles; he may be a divine entity or a dangerous con artist. I was hooked from the start. Thought provoking, thrilling, tense, intriguing, it had it all. Giri / Haji series - A detective from Tokyo goes to London for his missing mob assassin brother who is accused of murder. One of the best series I have ever seen! It's originality, the complex characters, the imagery, the directing, the soundtrack, the story. It was so well written that you felt like you knew these characters so well. Fantastic! Aaron Hernandez Documentary - Through interviews it examines how he went from an NFL star to a convicted killer. It wasn't a well produced documentary but the story is what counts and should be heard. The Irishman - Martin Scorsese film. Great movie! It had exactly what I wanted. De Niro, Pacino, and Pesci are the real deal together. Tyler Perry's A Fall from Grace - When a woman is indicted for murdering her husband, her lawyer thinks there may be a conspiracy at play. Your typical Terry Perry movie. Never great but good enough for entertainment. Sex Education season 2 - I love when this little comedy series gives you nuggets of heart and depth.

Yes, I read that if they do a season 2 it won't show until next year. No confirmation yet.

Lost in Space is rally good, it does right by the original while correcting some the shortfalls of the 60's version. It's a much more believable portrayal of 3 children forced to grow up real fast and be survivalists in adolescence. And the female characters actually do things this time, which is very welcome. I also like that Dr. Smith stays a villain rather than turning into a clown for no reason.

There is a documentary on Netflix called Pandemic: How to prevent an outbreak that is very current to the possibility of a pandemic happening in 2020. It is scary and real.
