Leave it to Netflix to Come Up with Birthdays On-Demand

Birthdays On-Demand #StreamTeam

I am so spoiled with Movies On-Demand these days, that I pretty much expect instant access to any movie or TV show ever made at any point. It’s just crazy convenient.

Netflix’s Marvel Shows Aren’t Just for Superhero Fans (or How to Get Your Friends to Binge Watch The Defenders)

13 Reasons I Just Can’t Look Away from Lemon Snicket’s Unfortunate Events

Lemony Snicket #ASOUE

From the very opening of Netflix’s original series Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, viewers are told to look away. A deadpan narrator practically begs and pleads with us to watch no more as an endless series of unfortunate events awaits three beautiful children. No happy ending. No good to counter the bad. Just look away. Of course, like most humans, when you’re told to look away, what do you do? Yeah, you look …
