{Pssst, my Loving Right Now posts aren’t paid or sponsored or anything. They are just stuff that I’m totally digging now and thought you would like too. You can check out my previous posts here}
A couple months ago I told you about my Lost Girl binge on Netflix. I finished devouring that show when I was home with the flu in early-February, so I had to find something new to watch. I tried the latest season of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, but I couldn’t get through even the first couple episodes. I enjoyed the first two seasons, so I don’t know why I despised season 3 so much.
Here’s what I ended up watching and loving:
Altered Carbon, season 1
Altered Carbon is a Netflix original and it launched on February 2, 2018. Travis and I watched a preview and were immediately sucked into the 10-episode series. It takes place over 350 years in the future and is a look at what the future would be like if you could download a person into a ‘stack’ and implant it into various bodies as needed.
Those who are very rich are able to clone themselves and upload their stack as needed, so they are basically immortal. The main character, Takeshi Kovacs, is a mercenary who is woken up after a 250 year prison sentence to solve a murder. There is a lot going on, but I really LOVED the series. Travis liked it too, but he tends to fall asleep while watching tv…
If you love a good sci-fi thriller mixed with a mystery, you may love this show. However, if nudity and sex bother you, you might want to skip it.
Grace & Frankie, season 4
Grace and Frankie is a Netflix show and I’ve loved it since the beginning! It stars Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin as two women who form an unlikely bond after their husbands reveal that they are gay and leave them for each other.
Here’s the original trailer from season 1:
I’ve been waiting for season four to come out, so I was pretty happy that it launched on January 19th. Here’s the season 4 trailer:
Gosh I love these ladies so much. They are hilarious and touching and just everything I love about television all rolled into one television show. I can’t wait for Season 5 because I’m kind of upset with where Season 4 left us!
Also Watching…
iZombie, season 4 (on the CW)
I mentioned back in the Fall that I had been binging iZombie on Netflix. Well, I finally caught up to real life timing, so I had to wait until the latest season started and watch just one episode a week like people in the old days. HOW did they do it?! {yes, that’s sarcasm}
Here’s the original trailer from when the show started:
Season’s 1 – 3 are on Netflix and to watch Season 4 I use the CW app on my Roku. It’s funny because I’m not typically a fan of zombies, but man do I love this show!
Jessica Jones, season 2
Way back in 2016, I wrote a “Loving Right Now” post about Jessica Jones.That show is what hooked me into the Marvel universe on Netflix, with Daredevil, Luke Cage, Iron Fist and the Defenders. I got a little bit of a Jessica fix in the Defenders, so I am soooo ready for season two of her show! I haven’t started watching it yet, but it’s next up on my list!
Here’s the season 2 trailer:
I can’t wait!
Now it’s your turn to share, what are you totally loving right now? Anything I should add to my ‘binge’ list?
