  1. Have you seen Younger on Hulu? There’s 6 season and it’s my all time fav! From the same creators as Emily in Paris. You’ve got to watch it!!!

  2. Some other ones to check out.
    Grace and Frankie
    Last Tango in Paris
    Anything wit( Olivia Colman
    Gavin and Stacey (British comedy James Corden)
    Watching Transparent now, interesting to say the least.
    Dead to me
    Atypical
    Just to name a few.

  3. Everything looks delicious! Love your choices of shows or series to watch. I did watch Good girls revolt, from your suggestion, a few others to.
    Thank you!

  4. Watch IN THE DARK on Netflix! You will love it! It’s about a young, beautiful blind woman who finds her friend dead. What happens next is just totally addictive to watch! Trust me!

  5. I’ll Be Gone in the Dark on HBO (docuseries). So so good. It’s about more than what the reviews say it is. So amazing.

  6. You should try The Kominsky Method on Netflix. It stars Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin and has so many great cameo roles! It is written well and is light hearted and enjoyable from start to finish.

  7. May I suggest SUCCESSION?!!! I would def agree with your top suggestions. But give this one a try - it is Incredible. Like can’t stop watching, can’t look away, don’t want it to end, still thinking about the last episode you watched days later!!!

  8. Gabby, that’s quite a list of recommendations for binge watching. Honestly trying to get out for a long walk daily. I fear we’re all gonna be packing on the pounds testing your great recipes. Since you enjoyed Dear John, listen to podcast by same producers: Dr Death. It’s currently being made into a limited series (for new Peacock Network.)

  9. Gaby,

    What is that delicious dish at the top of this post? Humus with chick peas, kidney beans and pomegranate?
