Bad Surgeon: Love Under the Knife: Episode #1.1 (2023)
Heartbreaking
I really don't know how to rate this so I'm just going with a 5. This is not the first documentary I've watched on this man, and unfortunately, both have focused so heavily on his producer ex fiancée that it's a huge distraction from all the horrible things he did to those seeking his help as a doctor. Frankly, I don't care about how she was swept off her feet only to find out he was lying the whole time. Like, how can someone be THAT dumb. She's as much of a narcissist as he is. I hope we see less of her in the next episodes.
Chris' story broke me. 30 years old and dying of cancer. He would have done anything to live for his daughter and Macchiarini took full advantage of him. Awful.
One Tree Hill: Something I Can Never Have (2005)
Just like having a real mom
I don't understand how nobody has reviewed this episode yet.
Haley is out living her best life like a normal teenage girl who doesn't live in Mark Schwan's small dick energy fantasy land. Nathan and Haley are apart but it's clear they will be back together. It's unbelievable yet still somehow I'm invested.
Felix is finally outed as the giant turd that he is AND Brooke is saved from having to move to California. What really got me with this episode is the line Brooke says to Karen at the end of the episode "it's just like having a real mom." This broke me. I watched this show when it originally aired. I was the exact age of the characters and thought it was so cool that she didn't have parental supervision. As a 33 year old rewatching for the first time in over 10 years, I sobbed.
Daisy Jones & the Six: Track 10: Rock 'n' Roll Suicide (2023)
The unlikable Daisy Jones and the Six
In my opinion, none of the characters are likable except for maybe Camilla. The story, surprisingly enough, sucked me in so I decided to keep going. I was annoyed every time Riley and Sam were on screen together but I think that was the point. You didn't want it to happen but it was like a car crash you couldn't stop watching. The little twist near the end was actually my favorite part and it made Billy seem likable for the first time in the entire series. However, the actual ending felt like a ripoff of How I Met Your Mother. I hated the ending in HIMYM and I hated it almost as much here, but again, I didn't really care enough about the characters to be that upset.
It kept me entertained enough to see how it ended, but it's not a show I'd go back and watch again.
Addams Family Values (1993)
Even Better Than I Remembered
When this movie came out I was 4 years old. I remember it being a movie I watched frequently as a kid with my parents. It wasn't until I was an adult (somewhere in my mid-late 20s) that I found out it was the second movie in a series. I watched the first one second and I absolutely prefer Addams Family Values.
Watching again in my early 30s and it's still funny as ever!! Plus, now I get all the jokes that definitely went over my head as a kid. I'll echo everything everybody else has already said. Christina Ricci made this movie and I love Anjelica Huston and Joan Cusack. Sad to say, I quote this movie from time to time and it's rare that anybody catches it.
Outer Range (2022)
Mind blown...
How did I not recognize Noah Reid as Billy Tillerson?! Mind blown. Also, slightly disturbing.
So far the series is giving me The Outsider vibes. I think there's a good mystery here and I'm going to keep watching.
Murder on Middle Beach (2020)
The Privileged Uses Daddy's Money to Become a Filmmaker
Not even 15 minutes in and it's clear this kid is using a personal tragedy and family money to make the next big docuseries. It would be a very interesting story if I could see past the privilege.
