I’ve been binging several authors lately: Stephen Graham Jones (horror author), Mona Awad (horror/kinda fantasy author), and Bora Chung (horror/sci fi short stories author)
Also I love good & “bad” horror films from the streaming service, Shudder, and watched a lot of them on the break between spring/summer sessions.

Currently binging: Hacks and various baking shows (Max)
Most recent completed binge: The 8 Show (Netflix)
I feel like I am running out of things to watch.-
@leslies I loved Hacks and was sad to see it end the season!
-
I love that you organized the works by streaming service. It both disambiguates works and points the sharee in the right direction for access.
Separately, do you have a favorite baking show?

For those who like a good emergency action show… I love 911, 911 Lone Sar, and The Rookie. Also, I’ve been watching The Tracker on Paramount Plus… the first season just ended but has been renewed for another season, yay! For the more nostalgic shows, I enjoy episodes of Gilmore Girls, Friends, and Young Sheldon.

Lately, I’ve really been enjoying different series on Dropout. My partner would often show me clips of shows like Breaking News, but I got into it on my own with the Dungeons and Drag Queens season of Dimension 20 as I’m also a Drag Race fan and played D&D for many years. I’m slower catching up with Dimension 20 series as the episodes are longer,…[Read more]
-
I love Dropout!! But I’ve completely fallen behind in all the series except for what they post on TikTok and Youtube 🙁
-
There’s a lot to catch up on but the highlights they share are always great. I love that the cast and creative team all seem to genuinely appreciate and support each other. I guess it’s that improv energy.
-
-
Big Drag Race fan here too, watched every main season when it first aired, ha! A coworker has decided to binge the entire run and we have been having a great time talking about it. A different coworker told me about Dungeons and Drag Queens which I need to get into for sure.
-
I only started watching with Season 8 as that was the first to come to Netflix Canada and a coworker recommended it. But then I immediately had to go back and watch the rest and have kept up, although I need to watch more international series. I also got my Mom into it, she watches it on cable and she loves it so much that she actually contacted…[Read more]

I am not really binging anything on television, but I have found myself listening to Crime Junkies podcast while shelving books at work for most of the last few months. I have to make sure I can quickly hit pause if a small kiddo comes into the library.
-
@carlys I listened to a ton of MFM a few years ago. Have dipped in CJ and some others.

I find it hard working full time and taking classes to deep dive into anything lately! Being at work for almost 10 hours each day, my my binge watches have to be quick and funny – like Bob’s Burgers (which honestly has some fantastic writing – like the episode where they visit Bob’s mother’s gravesite, amazing). I also enjoy anything with quick,…[Read more]
-
The episode in the graveyard never fails to make me misty eyed.
Also love any Agatha Christie shows! I used to hang out with my grandma to watch the old PBS mystery segment and we would hope it was either Sherlock or anything Agatha Christie. I still think about the intro to the mystery segment all the time…https://youtu.be/rAmGsM4Dids
-
I remember that Edward Gorey intro too! Wow, hadn’t thought about that in a long time
-
-
I took advantage of the break between Spring and Summer classes to catch up with some shows. I can understand about wanting short, funny shows when balancing school and work! Just finished the new season of Hacks which was great. I was a fan of Gilmore Girls and Mrs. Maisel, you definitely get your value in words per minute with Amy…[Read more]
-
I also love the way Mrs. Maisel has so many long “one-shots” where the camera is just moving around without a single cut and all of that dialog is just flying right and left – so much great production work to analyze.
-
The opening of perhaps season 2 of MMM had that LONG shot of the family moving into and unpacking in their house at the resort in upstate NY. It was brilliant.

I regularly binge Murder She Wrote, Psych and Bobs Burger’s. Once I finish one I cycle back and start the binge all over again. Somehow they never get old.
-
I first started watching Bob’s Burgers during the pandemic – such a funny, comfort show. I love how they all support each other without any hesitation, in whatever wild thing they are trying to accomplish.
-
It is so pure while being absolutely hilarious. I also found it during the Pandemic. I swear it helped keep me sane. Ha!

Hi All, These days, I’m consistently binging young adult and new adult romantasy novels. I’ve always had an affinity for these genres and have enjoyed watching their evolution over the years. Being a part of the fan culture around creative works amplifies the whole experience for me. I enjoy seeing the art and conversation the stories inspire. And…[Read more]
-
My sister has recently convinced me to start reading romantasy. I am now upset it took me until my 30s to finally give the genre a chance! If you feel up to it I would love some recommendations. Maybe just your top 3?
-
I love this — well done to your sister! A Court of Thorns and Roses (Sarah J. Maas) is a main series considered the “gateway” into Romantasy addiction. It’s not that the first book will blow your mind (though you’ll likely enjoy it) — it’s that the second book will (it’s chef’s kiss excellence). The series Fourth Wing (Rebecca Yarros) has been…[Read more]

Thank you!!! ❤️

HI all 🙂 I’m not binging on much at the moment, but I am looking forward to consuming the third season of The Bear starting on 6/27 (I’ll still get my blog done, promise!). Having been in/around the food world a fair bit, it takes me back into the hustle of kitchen life, just from the comfort of home where no one’s shouting and nothing’s on the line 😉
-
@Caroline Yes, chef! Such a great show I cannot wait.
-
A few weeks ago, I was reshelving in the library and a patron very politely said “I’m just behind you,” and I didn’t even look up, just instinctively stepped in toward the shelves and said, “Heard!” Some habits die hard 😝

Hello! I funnily enough recently completed my yearly binge of Twin Peaks, which I see is the header and profile picture of this group. Now, I am moving on to binging Avatar: The Last Airbender, and more than likely before the summer is over, I will start my yearly binge of the Lord of the Rings movies!
-
@condandridge I watched a big chunk of TP season 2 back in April. It held up much better than I recall. I still think about season 3…
-
Season 3 never leaves my head- just absolutely astounding.
-
Agree. Seriously. Will never forget that summer.
-
-
-
“yearly binge of Lord of the Rings movies” = amazing ✨
This is a fantastic annual activity. -
Not sure what theatres are near you that would have Fathom Events, but they are starting their LOTR Extended Edition series to see LOTR on the big screen! Its way too much fun to be in a room full of strangers that also have facts and lines of the movie memorized. Lol! https://www.fathomevents.com/series/the-lord-of-the-rings-trilogy/
-
@ktgall I am seeing Fellowship of the Ring this Saturday on the big screen! Super excited.
-
That is going to be awesome! I’m hoping to go to one of the later dates, they already sold out near me for this weekend.

Hey all – I have been hooked on Hacks and Loot on my streaming services. So good and funny!
-
I just finished watching the latest seasons of both, they were so enjoyable with great casts!
-
@alana42 Would agree 💯. Also: I think Maya Rudolph is brilliant!
-
-
I’m currently binging hacks with my fiance and we can not get enough!
-
I love horror too! What has been your favorite so far this year, if you have seen any new ones? I think mine is I Saw the TV Glow.
I love a good/bad horror movie too. Some of my first memories of going to the local public library were to secretly read horror/special effects magazines like Fangoria and Starlog. One of the “slow binges” I’m currently working through is the new Chuckie series which is sooo much better than it has any right to be! And, you know, Jennifer Tilly is…[Read more]
@frenchie123 @condandridge @jcwest Big horror fan here too. Currently watching The First Omen. I found it rather well done so far with a nice call back (call forward?) to the 70s film. Faves: Hereditary & Midsommer.
