Streaming series

The Scientist and I are watching a variety of series on different streaming services. Stranger Things is one we’ve been watching since it started. We have never watched more than two episodes at a time because we really want to savor them and also many of them are so intense that just one is enough. We’re down to the last two episodes after watching a long one last night. We’d put these off because it’s like planning to watch a film when seeing these. I know we could watch a part and then come back to it but I feel like it would take something away. I do look forward to reaching the end on this, mostly because it has taken a while to complete the series.

Another series that we need to finish is Ted Lasso. I had free months on an Apple subscription and started watching this towards the end of it. Then I got an offer for more free months. We’ve finished seasons one and two and just need to finish the last season. This series started off being really humorous and somewhat serious at the same time. Now the humor is still there but I feel like the serious aspects are more dominant.

We also have been watching The Sandman and it’s a similar situation to Stranger Things because each episode requires time to digest it. I have read some of the graphic novels but it’s been a long enough time that I can approach the series as somewhat new material. There’s also Good Omens, which is also based on Neil Gaiman’s work (with Terry Pratchett). It’s a really great book and the first season was really well done. We started watching the new season last week and it’s looking good so far.
