Oh YES!!

Get your bowl of popcorn and turn off the phone.
You'll want to binge watch this until the period closes the last sentence of 10 episodes.

It's called SHUT-EYE

Here, read--->

Charlie Haverford is a scammer with a small chain of fortune-telling storefronts and contracts building tricks for a family that controls the business in the greater chunk of Los Angeles. A blow to the head from a client's angry boyfriend intersects with a hypnosis session while auditioning a new "clairvoyant," and suddenly, a man whose entire life has been based on fraud begins to see and feel some very real and fundamental truths. Charlie's wife Linda is sick and tired of their mediocre life and wants to break away from Fonso, the single father who runs the Marks family's psychic empire, and controls the Haverford's future. Rossellini co-stars as Rita, the cunning, seductive, and sadistic matriarch of the Marks clan.

If you're singed up to Plenti, link your Hulu account. I'm getting points for my TV playing Pokemon, lol. The other TV is playing a drama show that gets points, as it played a comedy show last night for points.

The best I have seen on Hulu was Braquo. I think it has 3 seasons. It is about 4 cops and really good, it does have subtitles though but I don't mind. Worth your time.

Hulu Original "The Handmaid's Tale" drawing excellent reviews and renewed for S-2
Elizabeth Moss, Peggy in Mad Men, plays the lead female--Offred...a concubine assigned to a leader in the new America--a religious theocracy...

I am watching "Beck"--a Swedish police drama...subtitled of course so you can't just listen to it but have to watch it for the translation...

Good foreign shows on--
If you like police/drama try Prime Suspect, an older but excellent serial with Helen Mirren as DI Jane Tennyson--filmed over a a 10 yr or more stretch with a multi-part story told about one police investigation....great writing and on-location work but Mirren shines in every one...
And it is an unintended insight to see her playing this same character as Mirren herself ages...

New series I found from France called The Village--about live in one village in WWII under German occupation...want to watch to see how it deals with the issue of those who were sympathetic to the Germans vs those who really resisted...
Many people in France are trying to deny that there were French people who participated and helped Germans capture and send Jews to concentration camps for extermination -- especially now that LePen is running for the presidency...

Oh wow, I just looked it up. You get 200 plenti points for registering a device and then for every 10 episodes played? That's a lot. I don't normally like the TV on for background noise, but Hulu would basically pays for itself if I played just 10 episodes each week.

Thanks for your review! I started watching. I love it! I only wish I was behind more so I could keep binging.
