I just wanted to watch some Chinese martial arts on Netflix; therefore, I chose this one. Sword of Destiny lacks the depth of Ang Lee’s masterpiece. The English dialogue turned me off. The only reason I tuned in is to see Ngô Thanh Vân.

In his latest Netflix Special, Tom Segura continues with his dark sense of humor. He makes jokes out of shameful, cringeful materials. It is not easy to make uncomfortable content funny and Segura pulls it off with ease. He is so good at telling stories that I have a feeling that he is perfecting the art of storytelling than believing in his own stories.

Here’s a memorable line from Amy Schumer’s latest Netflix special: “Marriage is finding someone who can fucking stand you.” She talks about her pregnancy, appearance, and husband. The jokes were OK. She hits Hilaria the hardest. Anyway, she looks great in the pink dress.

In her latest Netflix special, Wanda Sykes jokes about her French wife, their twins, racism, politics, covid, and, surprisingly, a whole lot of dicks. Sykes is indeed an entertainer and she is doing an excellent job at it. She landed a punchline on Florida and its governor: “If you want to protect the kids, ban assault weapons. That’s what killing the kids, not the books.” If you want a good laugh, stream it on Netflix.

Sheng Wang has a laid-back style. I can’t recall if he used any curse word at all in his first Netflix Special. His jokes were mostly sarcastic. He began with an expected line, but landed on somewhere else. I can definitely relate to him on the Costco jokes. This is a special I can watch with my kids if they understand satire.

In their latest Netflix Special, Hannah Gadsby shared their relationship with Jenno. The jokes were lighthearted, except for skinning the rabbit story. Gadsby promised a happy stand-up special and they delivered. I still preferred her darker materials on Nanette.

In his latest Netflix Special, John Mulaney talked about his drug addict and his rehab journey for an hour and 20 minutes. Although he was engaging and entertaining, the show should have ended at the Rolex story. The GQ interview was just a bit of a drag on. Nevertheless, Mulaney proves to be at the top of his craft even when he’s sobered.

This was the first time I was introduced to Celeste Barber. I didn’t what to expect. Her materials were light with a few punchlines here and there. She revealed her relationship with her husband. They have been married for 19 years. She also disclosed that she was diagnosed with ADHD and showed her fat stomach to prove that she was confidence with her body. I listened to half of the special while driving to work. I might have missed some of her visual performance. I found her jokes silly at first, but I grew into her honesty and wittiness.

The title of this rom-com says it all. The romance between Sinh (plays by Scott Ly) and Amenda (plays by Rachael Leigh Cook) takes the backseat to the travelogue. It’s cheesy but beautiful, which is perfect for a Sunday rainy afternoon.

“I ain’t a killer, but don’t push me. / Revenge is like the sweetest joy next to getting pussy.” These two lines from 2pac sums up The Glory. The 16-episode Korean drama is dark, suspenseful, and a bit too long. The plot is also a bit complex. I enjoyed bingeing it, but didn’t quite live up to my expectations.
