Re: What are you binge watching on Netflix or Peacock?

@AngelPuppy1  Yes!  My friend, (who also watches them) and I always are amazed at the people who, randomly, kill a stranger and goes on with their life as if they are normal...never breaking the law again!

 

It happens these days more often than others have any idea.  They are also the hardest to catch.

 

Along those lines, there's the guy (who for more than 20 years was leading a 'normal' life) and wa s caught by a famous ancestry person.  She worked with the police and together they caught him. 

He was a old man just going about his life.  He didn't seem shocked they found him.  His attitude was more like "it is what it is".

 

Then there's the guy who's wife went on a business trip.  The wife's daughter in law went over to her house to fax something on her lunch hour.  The husband who's wife was away shot his daughter in law in the back of the head because he always wondered what it would be like to kill someone.

 

I've thought about why I'm interested in these shows.  I would say it's because, even though the people are deceased, I'm giving them a voice by hearing their story once again.

 

It's fascinating too.  Humans are paradoxical.  As much as they are predictable....is also how they'll do something unexpected.

I keep trying to watch Yellowstone, but I keep stopping because I hate the way animals are treated.

These shows are fascinating and scary at the same time!  So much of the time the crime or murder is committed by a husband, wife, child, or close family member or friend.  And  as we are watching these shows -- we think --- why?  Is this the only why you could figure out to solve whatever problem or issue you had with this person?  And --- when it's a husband or wife that kills the spouse --- it's more often than not because of either money issues and there are insurance policies to be had - or - there is an extramarital affair and the person wants to be rid of his or her partner and even children.  It's horrendous some of the things these people come up with!  And also --- have they always had these twisted, demented minds and if so, how did they manage to hide it for so long?  Yikes!  Yes, I have watched these shows where they used the familial DNA.  This is truly fascinating!

Re: What are you binge watching on Netflix or Peacock?

I just finished "The Wheel of Time" on Amazon Prime. It was an okay show. Not something I'll watch again. Very pretty, clearly they spent a lot of money on it. But it just never really caught me. I finished it, but I won't miss it.

Re: What are you binge watching on Netflix or Peacock?

@AngelPuppy1  It just seemed like the animals were being mistreated.

 

My great grandma was Indian.  I never knew her but I was raised by her daughter ( my grandma) and my maiden Aunt and Dad.

 

There was a large portrait hanging in the living room of my great grandma...she was in pigtails.

 

I didn't like the way he seemed to be fighting with the Indians.  That also bothered me.

I have been watching "Emily in Paris" first season. I enjoy it for the locale and Emily is kind of sweet and her wardrobe is to die for..💕💕💕

 

The second season just came out a few days ago, so I will have plenty more episodes to watch...

 

I recommend it if you love fashion and Paris.🌺💕


@Trinity11  -  My thoughts are the same as yours.  It's a cute show and her wardrobe is fabulous!

 

This is my first time to watch Lily Collins in anything.  I just recently learned that she's the daughter of Phil Collins.   I was surprised to see that she is also a producer of the show.

I just watched the second season of Emily In Paris, I didn't want it to end. I also finished watching You, I can't believe what Joe gets away with, I guess he has to or the show would be over! (both on Netflix)
