Each weekend, I recommend a movie, documentary, and TV series that I found through Netflix or started watching because it was conveniently on Netflix and I had been meaning to get to that movie/documentary/TV show for some time. If you have any recommendations, feel free to leave a comment!
Ryden Malby (Bledel) had a plan. Do well in high school, thereby receiving a great college scholarship. Now that she’s finally graduated, it’s time for her to find a gorgeous loft apartment and land her dream job at the city’s best publishing house. But when Jessica Bard (Reitman), Ryden’s college nemesis steals her perfect job, Ryden is forced to move back to her childhood home. Stuck with her eccentric family – a stubborn do-it-yourself dad (Keaton), an overly thrifty mom (Lynch), a politically incorrect grandma (Burnett), a very odd little brother (Coleman) – and a growing stack of rejected job applications, Ryden starts to feel like she’s going nowhere. The only upside is spending time with her best friend, Adam (Zach Gilford) – and running into her hot next-door neighbor, David (Santoro). But if Ryden’s going to survive life as a post grad, it may be time to come up with a new plan…
This was a cute movie to pass the time but by no means is it a must see. I like Alexis Bledel and the premise sounded interesting but really, as good as you think this movie will be if/when you watch it…you are probably right with your assumption. It’s not a bad movie, it just could have been way better. So if you find yourself with free time and don’t have any really entertaining movies around, this is an option. Otherwise, it’s not necessary viewing.
A family embarks on a year-long project to reduce their net footprint by using no electricity, producing no trash and giving back to the world. No Impact Man presents the severe lifestyle changes that come with altering their entire existence.
This smart sitcom revolves around Jessica Day, a socially awkward schoolteacher who’s still trying to rebound from a recent breakup when she moves in with three single guys, all ready to help her understand the ways of the world.
New Girl is that show that I watched here and there and when I watched it, I loved it but for whatever reason, I just never committed to watching it every single week. But I’ve started watching the episodes I missed on Netflix and have really fallen in love with this show. If you’re still considering watching this series, I say go for it! You’ll be so happy you did!
