What did you see recently that you just absolutely loved? Can be many things.

I've been watching the X Files. Technically rewatching, but I was very young and I only remember little things. A few days ago I hit the episode "Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose", which is always up there when people pick the best episodes of the show. They're right! It's absolutely sensational. Heartbreaking, clever and very funny.

I have been enjoying repeated viewings of Gravity Falls on Disney+. It's like the X-Files and the Goonies wrapped in clever animation.

This past year, my sweetie and I finished watching the original 7 Up series all the way through 63 Up. So so so so so good.

Lately I've really been enjoying "Ghosts" on CBS. I'd say that's the newest addition to my 'must-watch' list. I realize that it's an adaptation of a British show. I haven't seen the original and so I don't know how it measures up, but I like it. And this isn't necessarily my *most* recent favorite movie at this point, but the other night I caught most of "Knives Out" on TV and every time I see it, it brings me such joy. I can't wait for the sequel.
@vomvorton I love "The X-Files" and that episode is a particular favorite. All of Darin Morgan's episodes were fantastic; I love the humor that he brought into the show.
@cts Brilliant show as well. I'm a big animation fan and in that regard I'm not terribly difficult to please, but it was so nice to see an animated show where it felt like they did pretty much everything right: interesting story, intriguing setting, engaging characters, quality animation, and just the right balance of comedy, action, emotion and darkness. And it got to have an *ending*, something far too rare for animated shows. -

@kiffa That episode's one of my faves!

We were totally impressed with “Cruella de Vil.” Liked it much more than the “Jungle Cruise.”

Movie? Ghostbusters Afterlife!
Show? South Park Post-COVID special! -

@kiffa Brit here, we're generally horrified by US adaptations of our shows, but there are notable exceptions like The Office and Shameless. I deeply love Ghosts so its encouraging to hear that the US version might be good.
i digress.
My Wife and I just finished Pen15 last night and my GOD that was great. Also finally got around to the ten hour movie that was Midnight Mass and that was astonishing. These two shows have almost nothing in common except that the writing is of impeccable quality. -

I have been in "fantasy" mode lately and watched Wheel of Time, Witcher, and am most of the way through A Discovery of Witches. I think I'll dive into something science fiction after that to mix things up.

I pretty much spent my maternity leave with a baby on me binge-watching "The Next Generation" and then "Deep Space Nine," both of which I DID love. Despite being a sci-fi nerd, I somehow never got into Trek when I was younger. Now, will probably be a few Trek-inspired tracks in me this FAWM, ha!

Farscape.
I don't have regular tv any more but a friend gave me Disney+ for a year so I just watched the Mandalorian, or as I like to call it "Man-Delorian", and I thought it was fun. Marvel's WandaVision was pretty good too. -
@mikeskliar Jan 2022
movies (all streamed at home)- "C'mon, C'mon", and "The French Dispatch", both of which I really loved. The first selection was a really heartfelt and real story of Joaquin Phoenix playing an uncle, and this incredible 11 year old actor playing the nephew- really well done. "French Dispatch" is the latest Wes Anderson movie- his stuff is very stylized and quirky, but if you like his stuff you'll love this.
Series- currently watching "Maid" (really powerful) and finished recently watching "Borgen" (a Danish political drama).
and of course, music-related, watched all 8 hours of the Beatles 'Get Back' which was awesome. -

I’m a sucker for the Great British Baking Show

@tinear Jan 2022
Movie - Power of the Dog. I thought this was terrific. Slow mover in terms of plot but the atmospheric tension is superb and there’s some great landscape cinematography.
TV - even though it’s old I’ve been watching Seinfeld for the first time. Also The Fabulous Mrs. Meisel. -
@dzdandcunfsd Jan 2022
Show - The Expanse IMO the best hard sci-fi show ever made, though Futurama will always be my favorite
Movie - Twin Peaks : Fire Walk With Me I mostly missed Twin Peaks when it was a thing I halfway remember most of the original series when it was airing, but figured I'd start here to actually view it all. -
@carleybaer Jan 2022
We just stumbled upon Counterpart not too long ago, and somehow I hadn't heard much about it but it is really good so far. Definitely a must for any JK Simmons fans.

The Children's Hour, it's an old black and white movie but I watched it for the first time a few weeks ago and it has stuck with me.

@hurongrand Jan 2022
Love all the X-Files fans! TXF is one of my favorite shows of all time (even if it's older than I am). I actually think I wrote a song about it at some point last year...
Anyway, I really enjoyed the miniseries adaptation of Station Eleven. -

Summer of Soul was awesome for a fave recent movie.
