Netflix has Call the Midwife, which I love. It has 5 seasons, and it's about young midwives in 1950s/60s England. A lot of episodes are about acceptance of different types of people and illnesses. I think you'd like it!
Orphan Black. It’s about clones and then fighting the people who are trying to control them. It’s 5 seasons long and it actually came to an end so you’re not left wondering. That’s a bad description but it’s really really good . The script and cinematography is awesome . And the fact that literally all the clones are played by the same actress and it’s really impressive to see . It’s easy to tell the clones apart because they all dress and talk differently.
"A Dogs Purpose" is a very great book and movie. It tells the story of a single dogs life as he goes through different lives with different people. Just an FWI it will make you cry. It has a happy ending though. Hope your having a great day!
Once Upon A Time! Disney and other fairytales collide with the real world. Very complex characters, and best of all, a women - driven story. Also Speechless on Hulu. It's about a teenage boy with cerebral palsy. His mom is played by Minnie Driver and she's gloriously hilarious. Best of all, the actor really does have cerebral palsy! Yay representation!
You should watch more of the Ghibli movies while you're recovering. So like Pom Poko, Ponyo, Porco Rosso, Kiki's Delivery Service, Howl's Moving Castle, Castle In The Sky, etc. They are all great and all done by the same studio as Spirited Away, Studio Ghibli.
If you haven’t seen FRIENDS yet you totally should! :D it’s 10 seasons long and it’s one of the funniest shows I’ve ever watched, and it’s not to complicated of a show to follow either :)
Once Upon A Time is great! Basically it's what would happen if fairytale/disney characters lived in a normal life. A curse has been put on them and its down to Emma to break it, so the characters can remember their true selves. Its full of adventure and light hearted action. Lots of romance and friendship. Its so great! Xx 💜
Hannah Walters I recommend this also. Although, when they introduce the Frozen characters I started hating the show. It was so cheesy and the actors weren't that great. Once they left, I was still kinda disappointed, but I still really enjoy it. Belle, Rumplestilskin and Snow White are my favorite characters
Heartland has 8-9 seasons. It’s about a family who owns a ranch and the grand daughter got her mother’s ways of helping horses when people think they can’t be helped(some of them). It’s very cute!
Hey Jaquie! If you haven't yet, I'd recommend watching Supernatural! It's about 13 seasons long and it's REALLY good. I also recommend Parks and Recreation & The Office.
You should watch ‘What Happened to Monday’ on Netflix! It’s a movie about a world where siblings don’t exist. You can only have one child. And a woman gives birth to 7 identical girls. And their grandpa raises them secretly. Each girl is assigned a day of the week that they are allowed to go outside. Basically they are all going undercover as one alias or person. It’s so good!
I love Criminal minds, its a crimeshow that focus more on the killers prespetive of things. My favorit anime movie is The cat returns (its a colab between a director and Studio Gibli, whitch made spirited away.)
The Middle is my fav.. rt now they’re 8 seasons out.. it’s about a family that depicts everyday families. There is no sex, violence, swearing. Just very creative writing.. they r in their last season rt now (9th) not because it was cancelled but bc the writers & cast decided to end this yr... hugs to U, Judd & of course Harlow.
Kristin Schwalbe awww! Thanx for the reply.. I’m sad the show is ending too!! But it wasn’t cancelled... the writers & cast felt it was time to leave.. on this last season they r trying to give everyone a goodbye & a finish to the characters if u will.., I don’t drive and I’m basically home bound.. that’s how I know all this! Side note if u could have anything from the Heck house Wut would it be?🤗
I love Gilmore Girls! There’s 7 seasons and plenty to watch. It’s about a witty mother and daughter pair going through life and it’s kind of a drama I guess? I also love Fuller House! It’s about the characters from Full House continuing their lives 30 years later so if you liked Full House you’ll like it! Both are on Netflix. :)
I recommend Gilmore girls, it on Netflix with 7 seasons and a reboot, it’s about a mother and daughter and their relationship and they live in a small town, it’s hard to describe the show but I highly recommend
NCIS! NCIS! NCIS! - honestly my favourite series ever 😄 it's a police procedural show with tons of episodes and series and THE most memorable and loveable characters :3
Jane the virgin on Netflix is amazing. There’s 3 seasons but the episodes are long. It’s about a Hispanic catholic virgin named Jane who gets accidentally artificially inseminated. She lives with her single mother, who had her at 16, and her grandmother. It tells stories about Janes dad coming back into her life, follows through her pregnancy and rasing a kid, love stories, crime and drama. It’s an American telenovela.
Here’s some stuff you might like :) ~ movies ~ -Tombstone: its about the Oklahoma Corral historical event and one of my favorites - The Lion King: my favorite Disney movie of all time. It’s about.. well a Lion who grows up to be king ;D - Lady and The Tramp II Scamp’s Adventure: not a fan of the First Lady And The Tramp but I adore the second. And it’s about Lady and Tramp’s son Scamp who goes on an adventure. - Miracles From Heaven: it’s about a girl who has a terrible medical condition and falls down a tree and God heals her -MAX: it’s about a war dog who’s handler dies and the dog goes to live with his handlers younger brother -Homeward Bound: about 2 dogs and a cat who have to find their way back home -Hacksaw Ridge: about a army soldier who refused to carry a weapon and was given a hard time for it and ended up saving hundreds of lives -Miracle Dogs: one of my favorite childhood movies it’s about a boy who finds homes for abandoned puppies who have a healing effect on people -Firehouse Dog: about a Hollywood Dog who gets lost and becomes a firehouse dog -Saving Shiloh: one of my favorites as a child about a boy who saved a beagle from his drunken abusive owner - The Kingsman Movie Series: spy movies cx -All Of The Marvel Movies: super hero’s I hate DC but marvel is amazing to me c; - A Dogs Purpose- about a dog finding his purpose.

Very emotional but a wonderful book - I’ll edit when I think of more c: Hopefully this helps ya Jacque! God bless you and hope your pain settles soon! ^^
Totally recommend Orange is the New Black, such a good show and every season is a little different. It revolves around women living in a prison. The acting is so good!
Netflix has 3 seasons of Fuller House (and it's one of my favourite shows!) It's a continuation of Full House, but it mainly focuses on DJ, Stephanie, and Kimmy all grown up and with their own families. Definitely reccomend watching!
For documentaries, I have been really enjoying Planet Earth. It’s so fun and follows all sorts of animals all over the world! Very nice to watch while recovering :)
Elementary, there are 5 seasons on Netflix: Sherlock Holmes moves from London to New York and solves crimes, Watson is a ex doctor but now she makes a living as a sober companion. Love this show
So sorry about your troubling bellyache and hope it resolves quickly. I was just watching Janeice's video for today and left her a comment that applies equally to both of you. Please check it out. Every time I see you and Harlow interacting it reminds me of a statement I read by an animal behaviorist who states something to the effect of, "are we really smart enough to definitively judge an animal's sentience or intelligence?" I do believe there is quite a lot left to discover about the true nature of a service dog team's interactions with one another. My very best to you, Judd, Harlow, your Mom and Dad. I love your videos and look forward to them each day. I believe you when you state how your faith sustains you through these trials and physical tribulations. It's easy tp see that Grace illuminated in your life. That illustrates another purpose for your channel, notably, not proselytizing with words but silently by by the light that shines from within you that anyone who looks, can see and feel the warmth and love from it.
WATCH OUTLANDER!!!!!! it's second best to game of thrones. It's on stars. It's about a combat nurse that ends up in 1700 scottland, and falls in love if with a local hotty. It's a 3 season series and has all kinds of Scottish history goodies!!! BEST SHOW EVER!!! OBSESSIVELY GOOD!!!! IM EVEN READING THE BOOKS!!!
Black Mirror! It’s a series on Netflix that is about how technology has the potential to ruin lives, and the best part it that each episode is different so that you don’t have to watch in order. It can be kind of weird/gross at times and I don’t recommend season 1 episode one but some good ones are s1e2, s3e1, s4e1, s3e4, and s4e4
A Discovery of Witches is the first in a magic book series that I love. It has magical creatures, history, alchemy, science and some higher-level concepts, as well as a beautiful, non-cliche romance.
I really like once upon a time! I just started taking GED classes online. I lived in NY before. Even though I’ve only taken one class it seems much easier than classes in NY. Love all of the online tools for those of us who have a hard time or can’t make it to in person classes.
I think you might really enjoy Gilmore Girls on Netflix. It is about this woman, Lorelai, who grew up in high society Connecticut but got pregnant at 16 and left to live in a small town. Now, her daughter Rory gets accepted to a private school that will put her on her path to be an Ivy-educated journalist, but she needs money from her parents to afford the school. The show is basically about the lives of Lorelai, her mother, and daughter and is really fun and goes through their stages of life (relationships, job changes, travel). The way the dialogue is written is interesting with lots of pop-culture references. I don't understand like 80% percent of the references but that doesn't take away from the show and it is definitely a good binge to watch while recovering (7 seasons, 40-minute episodes)!! Hope your surgery/recovery goes well!
We like Heartland too - good story lines, relatable characters and gorgeous scenery! We also like Night Shift - it's about the medical personnel working the night shift at a hospital and EMTs. I'm not a big fan of the scary/gory stuff. I had surgery on Dec. 22, and I had all kinds of stuff planned to watch. Forgot to figure in that the first few days after surgery I always sleep a lot. I went back to work this past Monday, and I didn't watch any of the binge-worthy shows recommended to me! 😦
I highly recommend Wolf Children. It is so good! One of my favorites. It’s right up there with Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle. Wolf Children: Hana marries a wolf man and raises their two children alone after he dies. They move to the countryside and the children have adventures in the woods and at school.
You mentioned that you like documentaries. HBO has a documentary called 'Mommy Dead & Dearest' that you might like. Description from HBO "In Mommy Dead and Dearest, provocative documentarian Erin Lee Carr (Thought Crimes: The Case of the Cannibal Cop) again explores a crime in the age of social media. Things are not always as they appear, especially in the case of Dee Dee and Gypsy Rose, and what starts out as a grisly tale of matricide morphs into a rabbit hole of deception." Enjoy! :)
I love learning, but sometimes I just need an easy going documentary. If you're looking for some happy documentaries, I definitely recommend Twinsters (A French fashion design student stumbles a video of an American creator on RUclips, but is startled that the American girl looks just like her. The two come in contact and go on a journey to find if they're truly twins separated at birth) and Advanced Style (A fun documentary that follows around quirky older women with crazy, lovely fashion senses). These two documentaries are informative in their own way but still always manage to put a smile on my face, and I believe you can find both on Netflix!
The marvellous mrs maisley on Amazon prime is amazing. It’s about a female comedian in the 60’s that goes through a divorce and learns to live on her own. Continuum on Netflix is amazing. It’s about a female police officer from the future that goes back in time to our time. She tries to figure out what happened and how to get back. It’s also complete and doesn’t end on a cliffhanger. So it’s a good binge watch.
Here are some tv series recommendations on Netflix - The Crown: a dramatized tv show with only two series right now, about Queen Elizabeth -Party of Five: a show from the early 90s and 80s about five siblings after the loss of their parents - When Calls the Heart: a hallmark tv show based in a small town in Canada during the early 1900's about a mountie and a teacher - Worm Wood: a new tv series based off of true events and conspiracies
IT Crowd is on Netflix! Its a British TV show that is four seasons long and completed. The episodes are short but each one is absolutely hilarious. There is also a special episode where the cast came back and did a movie length episode. The synopsis: There is a company where down in the dungeon basement, lives two socially awkward IT workers. A lady is hired to be their manager but she has no idea about computers. The show is mini stories about their adventures and the shenanigans they get up to. There are only 3 main characters with perhaps 3 reoccurring supporting characters. All characters are very distinct and the story-line is light and fluffy.
Glad to hear you liked Spirited Away! It's one of my favourite movies and so I highly recommend more or less every Studio Ghibli animated movie (except perhaps for Tales from Earthsea, do stay away from that one), so here goes: - Kiki's Delivery Service - My Neighbor Totoro - Princess Mononoke - Howl's Moving Castle - The Secret World of Arrietty - From Up on Poppy Hill - Porco Rosso - Laputa: Castle In The Sky (Studio Ghibli's first movie) - Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (actually before Studio Ghibli was founded, but same director etc.) - The Tale of Princess Kaguya (based on the oldest known surviving Japanese "epic"(?)) - When Marnie Was There ... and there's more, but I'd start with these :)
"Pushing Daisies" (it has the lead actor from The Fall, I think it's on amazon) it's got 2 seasons--- "Ned possesses a rare gift -- the ability to restore life to the dead -- with a touch. He puts his power to good use, helping an investigator solve murders by reviving the victim and asking the deceased to name the killer." He also as a cute golden!
I recently got into The Magicians. Seasons 1 and 2 are on Netflix, and Season 3 is starting soon on Syfy channel. It’s like if Hogwarts recruited grad school students, and also Narnia was real.
SHERLOCK Jaquie! Modern day sherlock holmes and its AMAZING. The seasons are only 4 episodes long, but don't let that put you off. Each episode is the length of a movie, and are movie-quality.
I got totally into HEARTLAND! It's about a family in Canada, they have a bunch of horses. The cool thing is this young girl and her AMAZING ability to help them. There is humor, suspense, romance and it's in current day and I think there are 9 seasons on NETFLIX, but I recently found more on RUclips. I was heartbroken when it ended on NETFLIX!
My series recommendation is Heartland, there are 9 seasons available on Netflix. "Set against the stunning vistas of the Alberta Rocky Mountains, Heartland is a sprawling family drama that follows sisters Amy and Lou Fleming and their grandfather, Jack, through the highs and lows of life on a horse ranch."
I'd recommend the show Psych! It's not on Netflix anymore but Amazon Prime Video just added it, it's about a guy who is hyper-observant but he ends up having to lie to the police and tells them he's a psychic. He starts working for the department and goes around solving crimes in Santa Barbara with his childhood best friend (who's a pharmaceutical rep!), Gus. It's hard to explain but it's hilarious and should be easy to follow. There are eight seasons plus a musical and now a movie! Also the main love interests were actually dating for the entirety of the series which adds some great chemistry... try to give it a few episodes though, the pilot doesn't do the whole show justice.
I recommend watching a movie on Amazon called Megan Leavey. The true life story of Megan Leavey, a young Marine corporal whose unique discipline and bond with a military combat dog saved many lives during her deployment in Iraq. Assigned to clean up the K-9 unit after a disciplinary hearing, Leavey starts to identify with Rex, a particularly aggressive dog that she trains. Over the course of their service, Megan and Rex complete more than 100 missions until an improvised explosive device injures both, putting their fates in jeopardy.
On Netflix, there is a program called Jane the Virgin. It is 4 seasons long so far but there are more episodes coming out. It is about the life of a Latina woman, who is an author. It is in the style of a telenovela. Her mom speaks Spanish sometimes but there is subtitles.the rest is in English. It is very entertaining and enjoyable.
you could watch blackfish. its a documentary on orcas in captivity. its only about 90 minutes, but i thought it was very well done. it goes back to when the orcas were captured and the first years of their lives. it also interviews people of various professions and opinions and talks about the attacks by whales, and what might have caused them.
Movie - a 1990 movie called Mr. Destiny. It’s about a character, Larry (James Belushi) who has a comfortable middle-class life -- married to his teenage sweetheart (Linda Hamilton) and in an executive position at a sporting goods firm -- it still rankles him that he struck out in the last at-bat of his high school baseball championship. When he stumbles into an unfamiliar bar on his 35th birthday, the bartender (Michael Caine) fixes Larry a special cocktail that sends him back to that pivotal moment, allowing him the life he thought he wanted.
Call the Midwife on Netflix. It is a British series set after WWII and follows the lives and trials of midwives who travel in the community delivering babies in the patient's homes. It's much more than that. There are 7 or 8 seasons.
I like wandering RUclips to see what I find. I’ve always enjoyed watching things like Supernanny and also teacher vlogs like Pocketful of Primary. I like 8 Passengers and Ellie and Jared and all the sibling vlogs. Their parents even have a vlog now: Grandpa and Grandma Griffiths. Also the J House vlog and crafting videos. With crafting ones, some are great and some are awful. Turning it off without watching much is allowed. On tv I like Say Yes to the Dress; the Atlanta one is my favorite. American Ninja Warriors is kinda fun. Decorating shows and shows about tiny houses are great, too. As you can see I have eclectic taste. This is just a small sample of the kinds of things I watch.
There is a really interesting documentary series on Netflix called Rotten. It's about some crises that are facing the people and industries that grow our food. My favorite episode was one where they talked about a Chinese-American plot to suppress garlic sales. It's so cool!
Gilmore Girls is so good I’m obsessed!😍😘 7 seasons. About a single mom and her daughter. They live in a cute little small town. It is just there life it is so good. It is simple but definitely very entertaining. If you decide to watch it make sure you watch the original series first. Then afterwards watch Gilmore Girls a year in the life, which is the revival. It is such a feel good tv show it always puts me in a good mood!
Slightly for a younger audience but Teen Wolf on Amazon Prime is great. My mom and I watched it and it has a lot of twists and turns and is interesting to see how the producers go off of the original myths about werewolves and stuff. The Greastes Showman that is in theatres right now is definitely one you’ve gotta see, especially if you like musicals. It was great! Wishing you luck and a fast recovery in the weeks to come!
Another movie I like is Meet the Robinsons where a Boy genius, Lewis gives up hope of retrieving his latest invention, which was stolen by Bowler Hat Guy, then a young time-traveler named Wilbur Robinson arrives on the scene to whisk Lewis away in his time machine. The boys spend a day in the future with Wilbur's eccentric family and uncover an amazing secret at the same time.
Since the nightstand is wood it may be more comfortable because no lumps and its cooling. fabrics dont stay cool for long but wood furniture cools off fast. Maybe Hippo is trying to stay cool. Also FRIENDS is my favorite. I also really really like SuperGirl on Netflix. It has some Glee and broadway cast members and is very exciting.
You should watch Gilmore Girls. Google did a good job at explaining this. The first season of Gilmore Girls is a sweeping set-up of not just the show’s two main characters, coffee-loving 32-year-old inn manager Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) and her bookworm 16-year-old daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel), but their entire town of Stars Hollow, their detailed family relationships and the show’s distinctive quick-fire humour. It is funny show. My mom watches it all the time. She got my friend, grandma, and I all watching it. Love you Jaquie💖
orphan black is super awesome! it’s a TV show about clones who find out they’re getting sick, and have to go search for all their other clones without revealing their identities to the public. lots of action, there’s drama, and it’s very interesting. it’s bbc!
Psych and Monk are both amazing detective , comedy thing. Dexter is about this serial killer and is really good too. All of them are finished so plenty to watch.
What the health is an amazing documentary. It is basically about how the food we eat effects our health. I found it on RUclips and netflix. I changed my diet after watching it. I am vegan now but even though you have to eat what you can due to your gastroperisis its still really interesting 😊😊
Because I can't fall asleep if it's silent, I often use "Moana" to fall asleep to, too (I actually got that idea from you, believe it or not, quite a few months ago), and it works like a charm (in fact, I'm watching it right now). I also like to play some of the Buddies movies (also on Netflix) to fall asleep to - they're not too loud, not too quiet, I've watched them often enough that I don't feel like I'm going to miss something if I close my eyes (if I feel like I will, then I won't fall asleep, so I don't use movies I've never seen for that), and they're the right length where I'm pretty much guaranteed to be asleep by the time they end, so I don't have to worry about having to turn another one on.
I really like a show called Designated Survivor. It's about a man who was picked to be the designated survivor for the state of the union address, and the capitol building is blown up by aterrorist group. It basically follows the main character along his journey trying to rebuild the nation. It's only on its 2nd season, but I think you's really like it!
I think I've recommended this before but Being Human is literally my favorite show. It's about a werewolf, ghost, and vampire that live in a house together. Its on Netflix. It can be sort of gory so beware, but it's really good.
NCIS on Netflix- Team of NCIS Federal Agents solve crimes related to the Navy and Marine Corps. It's more about connecting with the team of characters than the individual cases they solve. Currently in its 15th season.
Hey Jaquie! I fell way behind on your vlogs after I was in the hospital for a bit, so I'm catching up now and I'm late to the party. I would recommend Forensic Files on Netflix if you're interested in science. It's a true crime series where they really go into the science of how the perpetrators were caught (DNA, fingerprints, etc.). Each episode is separate from the next, if that makes sense, so you don't have to follow who is who or anything, because the episodes don't follow each other or have to be watched in any specific sequence!
Hi again, I love studio ghibli movies, especially spirited away. There is a movie you may like called "the song of the sea." It's about a girl who has the spirit of the sea inside her and he brother tries to save her and keep her safe. It's got a similar vibe to spirited away. It's magical and light hearted.
I don't watch much TV, just never been a big TV/movie watcher, but I see someone recommended "Call the Midwife" which I LOVE. All about nurses who serve as midwives in a poor part of London post-WW2, and they live at the fictional Nonnatus House, which is a nunnery. Such awesome characters and fascinating storylines...taught me much. (I read the books too.) Aside from that on STARZ is "Outlander," and it's a time-travel series where a nurse who worked through WW2 and is finally on her honeymoon in Scotland falls through to a previous century and has to deal with the beliefs, customs and characters of that era...imaginative and gorgeously shot on location. Hope your pain continues to improve.
(I think the reason I don't watch much TV is that the series I like and really get into, like "Aquarius," impeccably acted, get cancelled! By the way you might want to check out "Downton Abbey" too. Though no longer on, there are a lot of seasons and it's a fascinating show about the English aristocracy --- starts right after the Titanic sinks.)
I found this interesting documentary on the BBC called employable me it's about people with diffent disabiltys trying to get a job it's really interesting also I think you'd like doctor who it's about a guy who time travels and it's really funny but also quite deep it had 9 new series on Netflix but it also has a lot of series before that which you can watch it's been going for 50 years so you'll have lots to watch
So exciting your going back to school! I remember you talking about it a while ago and now its happening. Also can’t believe you and Judd have been married for 6 months, i still remember how excited i was when he proposed
Brooklyn Nine Nine is honestly one of my favourite Shows right now. It's basically about a police precinct in Brooklyn, but it's a comedy. Super funny and light hearted and easy to follow. Thats currently in its 5th season. Modern Family is also quite funny and in its 9th season. I personally also love Criminal Minds, which has 13 seasons, so lots of entertainment. That's about a Behavioural Analysis Unit of the FBI.
I'm soooo proud of u that u read the first chapter. Plus u drove today. So double proud of u. Just one drive a day is a huuuuge accomplishment. Awwwww hippo loves the snuggles. Everydog loves cuddling. I hope u feel better. Put some heating pad on.
Book Recommendations: The Divergent Books (3 main books, 1 extra) by Veronica Roth The 100 Books (4 books) by Morgan Kass (havent read them but I will soon) The Selection (3 books, 2 more continued books, and a few short extra ones) by Kiera Cass and Legend (3 books) By Marie Lu I dont feel like writing explanations for the books but they’re really good I WAS ABOUT TO SAY I RECOMMEND THE 100 BUT RIGHT AS I STARTED TYPING IT YOU SAID IT! It literally my favorite show ever!! (except Full house that's really good too) Have you watched all the episodes? Lexa Lincoln and Finn are some of my fav characters. And season 5 is supposed to be a lot more basic and slow paced than previous seasons. SO EXCITED FOR SEASON 5!!
I love your videos!! Some of my favorite shows on Netflix would be Hawaii 5-0, it’s a remake of the original series. It’s about this Hawaiian task force that solves all kinds of crimes. Longmire, which is based in Wyoming and is very similar to Walker, Texas Ranger if you’re into the shows about sherries/cops out in the country; it was on for 6 seasons. And I also like Party of Five, it follows a family of five children ranging in age from an infant to about 25 years old and it is about them surviving and overcoming obstacles as a family after their parents pass away in a car accident.
My favourite tv show is Grace and Frankie on Netflix. Its three seasons (i think the fourth is coming out soon) and its SO funny, without giving too much away its about two old women (grace and frankie) who’s husbands are business partners and they dont really get along well because they are polar opposites but something happens that makes the other the only woman the other can relate to now. Its just so funny and i got OBSESSED with it
Also house- a medical/hospital mystery diagnosis show loosely based off Sherlock Holmes - which reminds me Sherlock is amazing too, although not long enough in my opinion :/ I need more! 😅💕🐶
James dashner, who is the author of the maze runner series, has another dystopian series called eye of minds I really love it. It’s about virtual reality and technology being a part of every aspect of life
I recommend watching Once Upon A Time. It’s a TV show where the Evil Queen puts the whole kingdom under a curse. This causes the kingdom to be stuck in a town here on earth. None of the fairytale characters remember their past lives in the kingdom. The main character, Emma, tries to break this curse. Very interesting!!
gilmore girls is my all time favourite show ever!! It has 7 seasons + one revival season, its about a mother and daughter who are best friends and its about the daughter growing up and the mothers addiction to coffee!! its reallllllllly good, hard to explain but its the kind of thing you need to watch a few times to see if you like it a lot. Keep in mind it's not particuarly eventful, still interesting but not dramatic at all which is actually nice watching something less stressful to watch compared to an intense show if that makes sense
When Calls the Heart! Elizabeth Thatcher, a young school teacher from a wealthy Eastern family, migrates from the big city to teach school in a small coal mining town in the west. 4 seasons
My favorite tv show is Victoria on Masterpiece. It is about queen Victoria and her early reign. Also her cute dog Dash (who looks the same as my dog) is included in the show. Highly recommended!
Hi Jaquie! So glad your pain is lessening a bit now. Congrats on the class you are taking! You said you enjoy documentaries, so I’ve got something like that but a million times better than a dry documentary! I recommend checking out SafariLive! here on RUclips. It’s as close to being on a real safari in Africa and in many ways.. it’s even better, as you get to know all the animals personally. It is LIVE… happening right at the time you’re watching which is just amazing. Warning.. you will risk becoming addicted to this if you watch for awhile. And if you love elephants (and I know you do!), you will see them in a totally new way… in the wild being what they truly are. Spending time watching them interact with each other and seeing babies play in water is beyond words. I’ve learned so much that is not in books. Because you get to spend lots of time with the animals and following them each day, you see things that people physically there on safari may not get to see. Cheetahs racing after their dinner (so beautiful, it will take your breath away!), tiny lion cubs, Africa's beautiful painted dogs (Judd would love these), and my favorite… the magnificent and stunning leopards. They have stolen my heart watching their day to day lives… the happy and the sad. The safari guides are very knowledgable and entertaining (not your typical guides for sure!), and the safari itself is interactive. If you have questions or comments, you can send them in via RUclips chat. You also learn about the habitat there and all the smaller species as well as the leopards, lions, cheetah, hippos, elephants, rhino, etc. They broadcast live twice a day from the Masai Mara in Kenya and from the Sabi Sands in the Krugar National Park in South Africa. They broadcast all over the world, so times vary greatly depending on where one lives in the world. The times for where you live in Florida would be: Tampa, FL times: 10:00 pm to 1:00 am - Sunrise Safari (in S. Africa) 7:30 am to 11:30 am - Sunset Safari (in S. Africa) Hope you get a chance to check it out. It’s also great for those times when the pain wakes you up and you can’t sleep! {{{ Big Hugs! }}} ~ Lynn
My mom really like 4400 on Netflix. From what I understood, 4400 people went missing suddenly, and they were returned many years later without ageing a day. It seemed interesting. I also like the show West Wing on netflix. It basically shows what it is like in the White House, but in a more humerous way. :P
Spirit (an old DreamWorks animated horse movie for kids) Homeward bound (2 dogs and a cat have to find their way home) True blood (an old HBO series about vampires) Game of thrones ( if you haven't finished it)
Someone MUST have suggested The Breakfast Club. My favorite movie is The Shawshank Redemption. Another good one is Dark City. "A man struggles with memories of his past, including a wife he cannot remember, in a nightmarish world with no sun." And "Cube" Six complete strangers of widely varying personality characteristics are involuntarily placed in an endless maze containing deadly traps.
I like Versailles (it’s available on RUclips but it might be on Hulu or something) it’s basically a historical drama about the history of the Versailles palace in France.
A really short and easy show to watch on Netflix is The Good Place! There's only 1 season and the episodes are only 20 minutes. The main actor is Kristen Bell, if you like her you'll love it. It's basically a comedy on going to "Heaven" or "The Good Place." It's really easy to watch, especially while recovering from surgery!!

Netflix has Call the Midwife, which I love. It has 5 seasons, and it's about young midwives in 1950s/60s England. A lot of episodes are about acceptance of different types of people and illnesses. I think you'd like it!
I second this. Such a good series!
Kathy Nicklas call the midwife is the best
Call The Midwife is AMAZING!!
Love this show!!
Love this show
I love heartland! It's basically about a girl who helps troubled horses. And other problems come up 😂 it's wounderful! ❤️
Megan Rose yasssss. Heartland has been one of my favorites!
I believe I recommended this last time too best show! And here in the US you can still watch the season 10 and 11 on daily motion.
Janet Benny and up and family :)
Sierra Bussell good to know thank you
If only the show would update on Netflix more often!! (I think it’s because the show is Canadian)
Orphan Black.
It’s about clones and then fighting the people who are trying to control them. It’s 5 seasons long and it actually came to an end so you’re not left wondering. That’s a bad description but it’s really really good . The script and cinematography is awesome . And the fact that literally all the clones are played by the same actress and it’s really impressive to see . It’s easy to tell the clones apart because they all dress and talk differently.
"A Dogs Purpose" is a very great book and movie. It tells the story of a single dogs life as he goes through different lives with different people. Just an FWI it will make you cry. It has a happy ending though. Hope your having a great day!
Julie Hill I really didn’t like the movie. 🤔🤷🏻♀️
Once Upon A Time! Disney and other fairytales collide with the real world. Very complex characters, and best of all, a women - driven story. Also Speechless on Hulu. It's about a teenage boy with cerebral palsy. His mom is played by Minnie Driver and she's gloriously hilarious. Best of all, the actor really does have cerebral palsy! Yay representation!
That would be great for Jaquie especially with the Disney fairytales!
Once Upon a Time gets difficult to follow....awesome but difficult to follow....
Ally Coleman once upon a time is a fabulous show I really like the show
You should watch more of the Ghibli movies while you're recovering. So like Pom Poko, Ponyo, Porco Rosso, Kiki's Delivery Service, Howl's Moving Castle, Castle In The Sky, etc. They are all great and all done by the same studio as Spirited Away, Studio Ghibli.
If you haven’t seen FRIENDS yet you totally should! :D it’s 10 seasons long and it’s one of the funniest shows I’ve ever watched, and it’s not to complicated of a show to follow either :)
Yes! It's a great light hearted show! It's about 6 friends who live in New York. It just follows their lives and the antics they get into ☺️
i love that show
I love friends, its the best show ever.
LostInWonderlandx3 Friends is great!
Once Upon A Time is great! Basically it's what would happen if fairytale/disney characters lived in a normal life. A curse has been put on them and its down to Emma to break it, so the characters can remember their true selves. Its full of adventure and light hearted action. Lots of romance and friendship. Its so great! Xx 💜
Hannah Walters I recommend this also. Although, when they introduce the Frozen characters I started hating the show. It was so cheesy and the actors weren't that great. Once they left, I was still kinda disappointed, but I still really enjoy it. Belle, Rumplestilskin and Snow White are my favorite characters
Heartland has 8-9 seasons. It’s about a family who owns a ranch and the grand daughter got her mother’s ways of helping horses when people think they can’t be helped(some of them). It’s very cute!
I️ second Heartland! I️t is my all time favorite show but maybe I’m bias because I’m an equestrian!
Sierra Bussell I love it so much! It is sad sometimes, but mostly happy. I love it so much. You should watch it!
Suzy Schmidt are you telling Jaq she should watch it or me? Lol because I already have 😬
Sierra Bussell Lol! Jackie. But you too I guess!
Hey Jaquie! If you haven't yet, I'd recommend watching Supernatural! It's about 13 seasons long and it's REALLY good. I also recommend Parks and Recreation & The Office.
I recommended spn too!
Yes i agree
I also recommend Supernatural!
You should watch ‘What Happened to Monday’ on Netflix! It’s a movie about a world where siblings don’t exist. You can only have one child. And a woman gives birth to 7 identical girls. And their grandpa raises them secretly. Each girl is assigned a day of the week that they are allowed to go outside. Basically they are all going undercover as one alias or person. It’s so good!
I love Criminal minds, its a crimeshow that focus more on the killers prespetive of things. My favorit anime movie is The cat returns (its a colab between a director and Studio Gibli, whitch made spirited away.)
Netflix has a movie called “Walt before mickey”. It is about how Walt Disney grew up and pursued his dreams.
The Middle is my fav.. rt now they’re 8 seasons out.. it’s about a family that depicts everyday families. There is no sex, violence, swearing. Just very creative writing.. they r in their last season rt now (9th) not because it was cancelled but bc the writers & cast decided to end this yr... hugs to U, Judd & of course Harlow.
Kristin Schwalbe awww! Thanx for the reply.. I’m sad the show is ending too!! But it wasn’t cancelled... the writers & cast felt it was time to leave.. on this last season they r trying to give everyone a goodbye & a finish to the characters if u will.., I don’t drive and I’m basically home bound.. that’s how I know all this!
Side note if u could have anything from the Heck house Wut would it be?🤗
Yes! One of the best, does not get enough recognition or credit, tv series! A ++++++
Caryn Schwengel thanx for the reply’ & I totally agree!
If u could have anything from the Heck house Wut would it be?🤗
I love Gilmore Girls! There’s 7 seasons and plenty to watch. It’s about a witty mother and daughter pair going through life and it’s kind of a drama I guess?
I also love Fuller House! It’s about the characters from Full House continuing their lives 30 years later so if you liked Full House you’ll like it!
Both are on Netflix. :)
Yes! Gilmore Girls. My all time favorite tv show.
I loved GG. I have all 7 seasons:)
I recommend Gilmore girls, it on Netflix with 7 seasons and a reboot, it’s about a mother and daughter and their relationship and they live in a small town, it’s hard to describe the show but I highly recommend
NCIS! NCIS! NCIS! - honestly my favourite series ever 😄 it's a police procedural show with tons of episodes and series and THE most memorable and loveable characters :3
Jane the virgin on Netflix is amazing. There’s 3 seasons but the episodes are long. It’s about a Hispanic catholic virgin named Jane who gets accidentally artificially inseminated. She lives with her single mother, who had her at 16, and her grandmother. It tells stories about Janes dad coming back into her life, follows through her pregnancy and rasing a kid, love stories, crime and drama. It’s an American telenovela.
Call the midwife is really good it’s set in the early 1950’s England..
Here’s some stuff you might like :)

- The Lion King: my favorite Disney movie of all time. It’s about.. well a Lion who grows up to be king ;D

Totally recommend Orange is the New Black, such a good show and every season is a little different. It revolves around women living in a prison. The acting is so good!
Netflix has 3 seasons of Fuller House (and it's one of my favourite shows!) It's a continuation of Full House, but it mainly focuses on DJ, Stephanie, and Kimmy all grown up and with their own families. Definitely reccomend watching!
I actually like it. . I've been watching this , I actually like it too!
For documentaries, I have been really enjoying Planet Earth. It’s so fun and follows all sorts of animals all over the world! Very nice to watch while recovering :)
Elementary, there are 5 seasons on Netflix: Sherlock Holmes moves from London to New York and solves crimes, Watson is a ex doctor but now she makes a living as a sober companion. Love this show
ALL Miyazaki Movies are great movies!!!
So sorry about your troubling bellyache and hope it resolves quickly. I was just watching Janeice's video for today and left her a comment that applies equally to both of you. Please check it out. Every time I see you and Harlow interacting it reminds me of a statement I read by an animal behaviorist who states something to the effect of, "are we really smart enough to definitively judge an animal's sentience or intelligence?" I do believe there is quite a lot left to discover about the true nature of a service dog team's interactions with one another.
My very best to you, Judd, Harlow, your Mom and Dad. I love your videos and look forward to them each day. I believe you when you state how your faith sustains you through these trials and physical tribulations. It's easy tp see that Grace illuminated in your life. That illustrates another purpose for your channel, notably, not proselytizing with words but silently by by the light that shines from within you that anyone who looks, can see and feel the warmth and love from it.
WATCH OUTLANDER!!!!!! it's second best to game of thrones. It's on stars. It's about a combat nurse that ends up in 1700 scottland, and falls in love if with a local hotty. It's a 3 season series and has all kinds of Scottish history goodies!!! BEST SHOW EVER!!! OBSESSIVELY GOOD!!!! IM EVEN READING THE BOOKS!!!
Castle is a really awesome show
Black Mirror! It’s a series on Netflix that is about how technology has the potential to ruin lives, and the best part it that each episode is different so that you don’t have to watch in order. It can be kind of weird/gross at times and I don’t recommend season 1 episode one but some good ones are s1e2, s3e1, s4e1, s3e4, and s4e4
Also Numb3rs! It’s on Netflix, 6 seasons, an FBI agent and his mathematician brother solve cases together, it’s soo good!!
A Discovery of Witches is the first in a magic book series that I love. It has magical creatures, history, alchemy, science and some higher-level concepts, as well as a beautiful, non-cliche romance.
I really like once upon a time! I just started taking GED classes online. I lived in NY before. Even though I’ve only taken one class it seems much easier than classes in NY. Love all of the online tools for those of us who have a hard time or can’t make it to in person classes.
I think you might really enjoy Gilmore Girls on Netflix. It is about this woman, Lorelai, who grew up in high society Connecticut but got pregnant at 16 and left to live in a small town. Now, her daughter Rory gets accepted to a private school that will put her on her path to be an Ivy-educated journalist, but she needs money from her parents to afford the school. The show is basically about the lives of Lorelai, her mother, and daughter and is really fun and goes through their stages of life (relationships, job changes, travel). The way the dialogue is written is interesting with lots of pop-culture references. I don't understand like 80% percent of the references but that doesn't take away from the show and it is definitely a good binge to watch while recovering (7 seasons, 40-minute episodes)!! Hope your surgery/recovery goes well!
We like Heartland too - good story lines, relatable characters and gorgeous scenery! We also like Night Shift - it's about the medical personnel working the night shift at a hospital and EMTs. I'm not a big fan of the scary/gory stuff. I had surgery on Dec. 22, and I had all kinds of stuff planned to watch. Forgot to figure in that the first few days after surgery I always sleep a lot. I went back to work this past Monday, and I didn't watch any of the binge-worthy shows recommended to me! 😦
And if you haven’t read Harry Potter you need too! If the books are too long you can listen to the audiobooks, they’re amazing! 💖
I liked Downton Abbey. It’s an Englisch American series about upper class people in England and their servants around 1900. (amazon prime)
CM Lehmann I was about to recommend that to. I really like it how do you like it?
I highly recommend Wolf Children. It is so good! One of my favorites. It’s right up there with Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle.
Wolf Children:
Hana marries a wolf man and raises their two children alone after he dies. They move to the countryside and the children have adventures in the woods and at school.
You mentioned that you like documentaries. HBO has a documentary called 'Mommy Dead & Dearest' that you might like. Description from HBO "In Mommy Dead and Dearest, provocative documentarian Erin Lee Carr (Thought Crimes: The Case of the Cannibal Cop) again explores a crime in the age of social media. Things are not always as they appear, especially in the case of Dee Dee and Gypsy Rose, and what starts out as a grisly tale of matricide morphs into a rabbit hole of deception." Enjoy! :)
I love learning, but sometimes I just need an easy going documentary. If you're looking for some happy documentaries, I definitely recommend Twinsters (A French fashion design student stumbles a video of an American creator on RUclips, but is startled that the American girl looks just like her. The two come in contact and go on a journey to find if they're truly twins separated at birth) and Advanced Style (A fun documentary that follows around quirky older women with crazy, lovely fashion senses). These two documentaries are informative in their own way but still always manage to put a smile on my face, and I believe you can find both on Netflix!
The marvellous mrs maisley on Amazon prime is amazing. It’s about a female comedian in the 60’s that goes through a divorce and learns to live on her own.
Continuum on Netflix is amazing. It’s about a female police officer from the future that goes back in time to our time. She tries to figure out what happened and how to get back. It’s also complete and doesn’t end on a cliffhanger. So it’s a good binge watch.
Here are some tv series recommendations on Netflix
- The Crown: a dramatized tv show with only two series right now, about Queen Elizabeth
-Party of Five: a show from the early 90s and 80s about five siblings after the loss of their parents
- When Calls the Heart: a hallmark tv show based in a small town in Canada during the early 1900's about a mountie and a teacher
- Worm Wood: a new tv series based off of true events and conspiracies
IT Crowd is on Netflix! Its a British TV show that is four seasons long and completed. The episodes are short but each one is absolutely hilarious. There is also a special episode where the cast came back and did a movie length episode. The synopsis: There is a company where down in the dungeon basement, lives two socially awkward IT workers. A lady is hired to be their manager but she has no idea about computers. The show is mini stories about their adventures and the shenanigans they get up to.
There are only 3 main characters with perhaps 3 reoccurring supporting characters. All characters are very distinct and the story-line is light and fluffy.
Glad to hear you liked Spirited Away! It's one of my favourite movies and so I highly recommend more or less every Studio Ghibli animated movie (except perhaps for Tales from Earthsea, do stay away from that one), so here goes:
- Kiki's Delivery Service
- My Neighbor Totoro
- Princess Mononoke
- Howl's Moving Castle
- The Secret World of Arrietty
- From Up on Poppy Hill
- Porco Rosso
- Laputa: Castle In The Sky (Studio Ghibli's first movie)
- Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (actually before Studio Ghibli was founded, but same director etc.)
- The Tale of Princess Kaguya (based on the oldest known surviving Japanese "epic"(?))
- When Marnie Was There
... and there's more, but I'd start with these :)
I can't say it enough but thank you so much for sharing your story and life!
"Pushing Daisies" (it has the lead actor from The Fall, I think it's on amazon) it's got 2 seasons---
"Ned possesses a rare gift -- the ability to restore life to the dead -- with a touch. He puts his power to good use, helping an investigator solve murders by reviving the victim and asking the deceased to name the killer." He also as a cute golden!
Law and Order SVU on hulu is really good with a lot of seasons.
I still love Mad About You, 90’s sitcom about a couple in New York. Paul Riser and Helen Hunt, you can’t go wrong!
Also fav movie: Life As A House. Kinda sad, but really, really good!
I recently got into The Magicians. Seasons 1 and 2 are on Netflix, and Season 3 is starting soon on Syfy channel.
It’s like if Hogwarts recruited grad school students, and also Narnia was real.
SHERLOCK Jaquie! Modern day sherlock holmes and its AMAZING. The seasons are only 4 episodes long, but don't let that put you off. Each episode is the length of a movie, and are movie-quality.
I love House and Supernatural, both are quite easy to follow, have funny moments and have many many seasons!
I got totally into HEARTLAND! It's about a family in Canada, they have a bunch of horses. The cool thing is this young girl and her AMAZING ability to help them. There is humor, suspense, romance and it's in current day and I think there are 9 seasons on NETFLIX, but I recently found more on RUclips. I was heartbroken when it ended on NETFLIX!
Danette Hartsock I️ love Heartland too!
My series recommendation is Heartland, there are 9 seasons available on Netflix. "Set against the stunning vistas of the Alberta Rocky Mountains, Heartland is a sprawling family drama that follows sisters Amy and Lou Fleming and their grandfather, Jack, through the highs and lows of life on a horse ranch."
I'd recommend the show Psych! It's not on Netflix anymore but Amazon Prime Video just added it, it's about a guy who is hyper-observant but he ends up having to lie to the police and tells them he's a psychic. He starts working for the department and goes around solving crimes in Santa Barbara with his childhood best friend (who's a pharmaceutical rep!), Gus. It's hard to explain but it's hilarious and should be easy to follow. There are eight seasons plus a musical and now a movie! Also the main love interests were actually dating for the entirety of the series which adds some great chemistry... try to give it a few episodes though, the pilot doesn't do the whole show justice.
I recommend watching a movie on Amazon called Megan Leavey.
The true life story of Megan Leavey, a young Marine corporal whose unique discipline and bond with a military combat dog saved many lives during her deployment in Iraq. Assigned to clean up the K-9 unit after a disciplinary hearing, Leavey starts to identify with Rex, a particularly aggressive dog that she trains. Over the course of their service, Megan and Rex complete more than 100 missions until an improvised explosive device injures both, putting their fates in jeopardy.
On Netflix, there is a program called Jane the Virgin. It is 4 seasons long so far but there are more episodes coming out. It is about the life of a Latina woman, who is an author. It is in the style of a telenovela. Her mom speaks Spanish sometimes but there is subtitles.the rest is in English. It is very entertaining and enjoyable.
you could watch blackfish. its a documentary on orcas in captivity. its only about 90 minutes, but i thought it was very well done. it goes back to when the orcas were captured and the first years of their lives. it also interviews people of various professions and opinions and talks about the attacks by whales, and what might have caused them.
Movie - a 1990 movie called Mr. Destiny. It’s about a character, Larry (James Belushi) who has a comfortable middle-class life -- married to his teenage sweetheart (Linda Hamilton) and in an executive position at a sporting goods firm -- it still rankles him that he struck out in the last at-bat of his high school baseball championship. When he stumbles into an unfamiliar bar on his 35th birthday, the bartender (Michael Caine) fixes Larry a special cocktail that sends him back to that pivotal moment, allowing him the life he thought he wanted.
Call the Midwife on Netflix. It is a British series set after WWII and follows the lives and trials of midwives who travel in the community delivering babies in the patient's homes. It's much more than that. There are 7 or 8 seasons.
Orange is the new black is a crazy show but interesting and it keeps you watching !! Love you Jacquie you are Awesome XOXO
I like wandering RUclips to see what I find. I’ve always enjoyed watching things like Supernanny and also teacher vlogs like Pocketful of Primary. I like 8 Passengers and Ellie and Jared and all the sibling vlogs. Their parents even have a vlog now: Grandpa and Grandma Griffiths. Also the J House vlog and crafting videos. With crafting ones, some are great and some are awful. Turning it off without watching much is allowed.
On tv I like Say Yes to the Dress; the Atlanta one is my favorite. American Ninja Warriors is kinda fun. Decorating shows and shows about tiny houses are great, too. As you can see I have eclectic taste. This is just a small sample of the kinds of things I watch.
There is a really interesting documentary series on Netflix called Rotten. It's about some crises that are facing the people and industries that grow our food. My favorite episode was one where they talked about a Chinese-American plot to suppress garlic sales. It's so cool!
Gilmore Girls is so good I’m obsessed!😍😘 7 seasons. About a single mom and her daughter. They live in a cute little small town. It is just there life it is so good. It is simple but definitely very entertaining. If you decide to watch it make sure you watch the original series first. Then afterwards watch Gilmore Girls a year in the life, which is the revival. It is such a feel good tv show it always puts me in a good mood!
I love Spirited Away. I found some years back and have it on VHS. I realy have to get it DVD. Love, Love, love it.
Slightly for a younger audience but Teen Wolf on Amazon Prime is great. My mom and I watched it and it has a lot of twists and turns and is interesting to see how the producers go off of the original myths about werewolves and stuff. The Greastes Showman that is in theatres right now is definitely one you’ve gotta see, especially if you like musicals. It was great! Wishing you luck and a fast recovery in the weeks to come!
Another movie I like is Meet the Robinsons where a Boy genius, Lewis gives up hope of retrieving his latest invention, which was stolen by Bowler Hat Guy, then a young time-traveler named Wilbur Robinson arrives on the scene to whisk Lewis away in his time machine. The boys spend a day in the future with Wilbur's eccentric family and uncover an amazing secret at the same time.
Since the nightstand is wood it may be more comfortable because no lumps and its cooling. fabrics dont stay cool for long but wood furniture cools off fast. Maybe Hippo is trying to stay cool. Also FRIENDS is my favorite. I also really really like SuperGirl on Netflix. It has some Glee and broadway cast members and is very exciting.
You should watch Gilmore Girls. Google did a good job at explaining this. The first season of Gilmore Girls is a sweeping set-up of not just the show’s two main characters, coffee-loving 32-year-old inn manager Lorelai Gilmore (Lauren Graham) and her bookworm 16-year-old daughter Rory (Alexis Bledel), but their entire town of Stars Hollow, their detailed family relationships and the show’s distinctive quick-fire humour. It is funny show. My mom watches it all the time. She got my friend, grandma, and I all watching it. Love you Jaquie💖
orphan black is super awesome! it’s a TV show about clones who find out they’re getting sick, and have to go search for all their other clones without revealing their identities to the public. lots of action, there’s drama, and it’s very interesting. it’s bbc!
Downtown Abbey, it's on AmazonPrime!!
Psych and Monk are both amazing detective , comedy thing. Dexter is about this serial killer and is really good too. All of them are finished so plenty to watch.
What the health is an amazing documentary. It is basically about how the food we eat effects our health. I found it on RUclips and netflix. I changed my diet after watching it. I am vegan now but even though you have to eat what you can due to your gastroperisis its still really interesting 😊😊
Because I can't fall asleep if it's silent, I often use "Moana" to fall asleep to, too (I actually got that idea from you, believe it or not, quite a few months ago), and it works like a charm (in fact, I'm watching it right now). I also like to play some of the Buddies movies (also on Netflix) to fall asleep to - they're not too loud, not too quiet, I've watched them often enough that I don't feel like I'm going to miss something if I close my eyes (if I feel like I will, then I won't fall asleep, so I don't use movies I've never seen for that), and they're the right length where I'm pretty much guaranteed to be asleep by the time they end, so I don't have to worry about having to turn another one on.
I really like a show called Designated Survivor. It's about a man who was picked to be the designated survivor for the state of the union address, and the capitol building is blown up by aterrorist group. It basically follows the main character along his journey trying to rebuild the nation. It's only on its 2nd season, but I think you's really like it!
Once upon a time!!! It's a definite watch!
I think I've recommended this before but Being Human is literally my favorite show. It's about a werewolf, ghost, and vampire that live in a house together. Its on Netflix. It can be sort of gory so beware, but it's really good.
NCIS on Netflix- Team of NCIS Federal Agents solve crimes related to the Navy and Marine Corps. It's more about connecting with the team of characters than the individual cases they solve. Currently in its 15th season.
Hey Jaquie! I fell way behind on your vlogs after I was in the hospital for a bit, so I'm catching up now and I'm late to the party. I would recommend Forensic Files on Netflix if you're interested in science. It's a true crime series where they really go into the science of how the perpetrators were caught (DNA, fingerprints, etc.). Each episode is separate from the next, if that makes sense, so you don't have to follow who is who or anything, because the episodes don't follow each other or have to be watched in any specific sequence!
Hi again,
I love studio ghibli movies, especially spirited away. There is a movie you may like called "the song of the sea." It's about a girl who has the spirit of the sea inside her and he brother tries to save her and keep her safe. It's got a similar vibe to spirited away. It's magical and light hearted.
I don't watch much TV, just never been a big TV/movie watcher, but I see someone recommended "Call the Midwife" which I LOVE. All about nurses who serve as midwives in a poor part of London post-WW2, and they live at the fictional Nonnatus House, which is a nunnery. Such awesome characters and fascinating storylines...taught me much. (I read the books too.) Aside from that on STARZ is "Outlander," and it's a time-travel series where a nurse who worked through WW2 and is finally on her honeymoon in Scotland falls through to a previous century and has to deal with the beliefs, customs and characters of that era...imaginative and gorgeously shot on location. Hope your pain continues to improve.
(I think the reason I don't watch much TV is that the series I like and really get into, like "Aquarius," impeccably acted, get cancelled! By the way you might want to check out "Downton Abbey" too. Though no longer on, there are a lot of seasons and it's a fascinating show about the English aristocracy --- starts right after the Titanic sinks.)
I found this interesting documentary on the BBC called employable me it's about people with diffent disabiltys trying to get a job it's really interesting also I think you'd like doctor who it's about a guy who time travels and it's really funny but also quite deep it had 9 new series on Netflix but it also has a lot of series before that which you can watch it's been going for 50 years so you'll have lots to watch
Also in terms of books i think you'd like divergent it's a trilogy and is similar to maze runner but the movies are terrible
angst Technically it has 4 books, and the movies are bad
Doctor who was removed from Netflix a while ago
Oliver Likes Cats I didn't realise I live in England and it's still on my Netflix is there any chance it's on hulu??
ya girl fundip the 3rd one was the worst I think, watching the movies made me so sad because I loved the books so much
So exciting your going back to school! I remember you talking about it a while ago and now its happening. Also can’t believe you and Judd have been married for 6 months, i still remember how excited i was when he proposed
Brooklyn Nine Nine is honestly one of my favourite Shows right now. It's basically about a police precinct in Brooklyn, but it's a comedy. Super funny and light hearted and easy to follow. Thats currently in its 5th season.
Modern Family is also quite funny and in its 9th season.
I personally also love Criminal Minds, which has 13 seasons, so lots of entertainment. That's about a Behavioural Analysis Unit of the FBI.
I'm soooo proud of u that u read the first chapter. Plus u drove today. So double proud of u. Just one drive a day is a huuuuge accomplishment. Awwwww hippo loves the snuggles. Everydog loves cuddling. I hope u feel better. Put some heating pad on.
Favourite tv series. Outlander, greys anatomy, scandal, how to get away with murder, and the 100!
Book Recommendations:
The Divergent Books (3 main books, 1 extra) by Veronica Roth
The 100 Books (4 books) by Morgan Kass (havent read them but I will soon)
The Selection (3 books, 2 more continued books, and a few short extra ones) by Kiera Cass
and Legend (3 books) By Marie Lu
I dont feel like writing explanations for the books but they’re really good
I WAS ABOUT TO SAY I RECOMMEND THE 100 BUT RIGHT AS I STARTED TYPING IT YOU SAID IT! It literally my favorite show ever!! (except Full house that's really good too) Have you watched all the episodes? Lexa Lincoln and Finn are some of my fav characters. And season 5 is supposed to be a lot more basic and slow paced than previous seasons. SO EXCITED FOR SEASON 5!!
Elementary,The Blacklist, Scandal,and of course The Queen
I love your videos!! Some of my favorite shows on Netflix would be Hawaii 5-0, it’s a remake of the original series. It’s about this Hawaiian task force that solves all kinds of crimes. Longmire, which is based in Wyoming and is very similar to Walker, Texas Ranger if you’re into the shows about sherries/cops out in the country; it was on for 6 seasons. And I also like Party of Five, it follows a family of five children ranging in age from an infant to about 25 years old and it is about them surviving and overcoming obstacles as a family after their parents pass away in a car accident.
My favourite tv show is Grace and Frankie on Netflix. Its three seasons (i think the fourth is coming out soon) and its SO funny, without giving too much away its about two old women (grace and frankie) who’s husbands are business partners and they dont really get along well because they are polar opposites but something happens that makes the other the only woman the other can relate to now. Its just so funny and i got OBSESSED with it
Also house- a medical/hospital mystery diagnosis show loosely based off Sherlock Holmes - which reminds me Sherlock is amazing too, although not long enough in my opinion :/ I need more! 😅💕🐶
James dashner, who is the author of the maze runner series, has another dystopian series called eye of minds I really love it. It’s about virtual reality and technology being a part of every aspect of life
I recommend watching Once Upon A Time. It’s a TV show where the Evil Queen puts the whole kingdom under a curse. This causes the kingdom to be stuck in a town here on earth. None of the fairytale characters remember their past lives in the kingdom. The main character, Emma, tries to break this curse. Very interesting!!
gilmore girls is my all time favourite show ever!! It has 7 seasons + one revival season, its about a mother and daughter who are best friends and its about the daughter growing up and the mothers addiction to coffee!! its reallllllllly good, hard to explain but its the kind of thing you need to watch a few times to see if you like it a lot. Keep in mind it's not particuarly eventful, still interesting but not dramatic at all which is actually nice watching something less stressful to watch compared to an intense show if that makes sense
also definitely not confusing and an easy watch
When Calls the Heart! Elizabeth Thatcher, a young school teacher from a wealthy Eastern family, migrates from the big city to teach school in a small coal mining town in the west. 4 seasons
My favorite tv show is Victoria on Masterpiece. It is about queen Victoria and her early reign. Also her cute dog Dash (who looks the same as my dog) is included in the show. Highly recommended!
Hi Jaquie! So glad your pain is lessening a bit now. Congrats on the class you are taking!
You said you enjoy documentaries, so I’ve got something like that but a million times better than a dry documentary!
I recommend checking out SafariLive! here on RUclips. It’s as close to being on a real safari in Africa and in many ways.. it’s even better, as you get to know all the animals personally. It is LIVE… happening right at the time you’re watching which is just amazing.
Warning.. you will risk becoming addicted to this if you watch for awhile. And if you love elephants (and I know you do!), you will see them in a totally new way… in the wild being what they truly are. Spending time watching them interact with each other and seeing babies play in water is beyond words.
I’ve learned so much that is not in books. Because you get to spend lots of time with the animals and following them each day, you see things that people physically there on safari may not get to see.
Cheetahs racing after their dinner (so beautiful, it will take your breath away!), tiny lion cubs, Africa's beautiful painted dogs (Judd would love these), and my favorite… the magnificent and stunning leopards. They have stolen my heart watching their day to day lives… the happy and the sad.
The safari guides are very knowledgable and entertaining (not your typical guides for sure!), and the safari itself is interactive. If you have questions or comments, you can send them in via RUclips chat. You also learn about the habitat there and all the smaller species as well as the leopards, lions, cheetah, hippos, elephants, rhino, etc.
They broadcast live twice a day from the Masai Mara in Kenya and from the Sabi Sands in the Krugar National Park in South Africa. They broadcast all over the world, so times vary greatly depending on where one lives in the world. The times for where you live in Florida would be:
Tampa, FL times:
10:00 pm to 1:00 am - Sunrise Safari (in S. Africa)
7:30 am to 11:30 am - Sunset Safari (in S. Africa)
Hope you get a chance to check it out. It’s also great for those times when the pain wakes you up and you can’t sleep! {{{ Big Hugs! }}} ~ Lynn
My mom really like 4400 on Netflix. From what I understood, 4400 people went missing suddenly, and they were returned many years later without ageing a day. It seemed interesting. I also like the show West Wing on netflix. It basically shows what it is like in the White House, but in a more humerous way. :P
Spirit (an old DreamWorks animated horse movie for kids)
Homeward bound (2 dogs and a cat have to find their way home)
True blood (an old HBO series about vampires)
Game of thrones ( if you haven't finished it)
Someone MUST have suggested The Breakfast Club.
My favorite movie is The Shawshank Redemption.
Another good one is Dark City. "A man struggles with memories of his past, including a wife he cannot remember, in a nightmarish world with no sun."
And "Cube" Six complete strangers of widely varying personality characteristics are involuntarily placed in an endless maze containing deadly traps.
I like Versailles (it’s available on RUclips but it might be on Hulu or something) it’s basically a historical drama about the history of the Versailles palace in France.
A really short and easy show to watch on Netflix is The Good Place! There's only 1 season and the episodes are only 20 minutes. The main actor is Kristen Bell, if you like her you'll love it. It's basically a comedy on going to "Heaven" or "The Good Place." It's really easy to watch, especially while recovering from surgery!!
