A couple on Netflix

"Mea Culpa"

Please do not waste your time - no redeeming qualities at all.

"The Wonderful Henry Sugar"

A very stylised story of a cad who learns he has guru like powers to change his world.

OK if you have an hour to kill. Quite amusing but rather silly.

I saw the first had a low score on imdb and you have confirmed my bias
The second one I started, twas a bit strange and it was a while back so I can't say it tickled my fancy much either.

As a relative newcomer to Netflix, there are some things we've found promising, but really they should have stopped an episode (or even a series) before they did.

But for 30 min lightweight but clever laughs, there's a lot worse out there than Fisk and Kim's Convenience.

Kim's Convenience occasionally has some brilliant dialogue, but it also has Janet and her pals who just seem really badly written
It is almost as if there's two teams writing stuff who don't talk... or the younger actors are just pants?
