What I'm Watching on Netflix
Tuesday, June 28, 2011
This week's picks from my Netflix Instant Watch Library or mail queue:
TV Show:
Dowtown Abbey is a British soap opera about what happens when members of the upper-crust and lower class coexist under the same roof of a grand manor estate. Fireworks! Artistocrats and servants alike scheme and scandalize against the backdrop of major world events like the sinking of the Titanic and the start of World War I. It's positively tantalizing!
Movie:
My Five Last Girlfriends is a cheeky British film about an unlucky-in-love bloke who, after a silly suicide attempt, relives his last five breakups in an imaginative series of flashbacks. Each failed relationship is illustrated as an amusement park ride. It's not LOL funny, but it's amusing in that British humor kind of way..

I've heard of Downtown Abbey and it sounds like my cup of tea, but just haven't had time to watch it. I hadn't heard of My Five Last Girlfriends, but based on your review, it sounds like it is one I can skip, given how little time I have to watch TV/Movies.
The second one sounds strangely funny.
LOVE Downton Abbey! Can't wait for the next installment coming out this fall.
OMG - LOVE Downtown Abbey!! That was such a great mini-series. And there's a follow-up in the works for next fall...
Hope you're well ;)
I really like British humour. I'd never heard of either of these. The downtown Abby one sounds good.
My Last Five Girlfriends sounds really, really funny. I've gotta check it out.
