Looking for something new to watch? You've come to the right place! Here's what I recommend.
The Tinder Swindler - Netflix
An absolutely riveting documentary of the true story of a 20-something Israeli con man who swindles European women, whom he met on Tinder. It's dark and twisty and the most interesting thing to be on netflix in awhile. At the time of writing this, Simon's insta was public and the ladies have a gofundme up.
Pam & Tommy - Hulu
A Miniseries that follows the story of Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee's relationship, going back to their whirlwind romance that started with them marrying after only knowing each other for 96 hours in 1995 and how their infamous tape was stolen. The nudity on the show is made from prosthetics. I highly recommend watching The Dirt on netflix to learn more about Tommy.
Secrets of Playboy - A&E
A 10- part docuseries that explores the hidden dark truths behind the Playboy empire. I used to watch Girls Next Door and read Holly's book so this is all juicy info to me.
The Sex Lives of College Girls - HBO Max
Created by Mindy Kaling, the show follows the lives of four- 18 year old freshman roommates at a fictional college in Vermont.
Deaf U - Netflix
This came out in 2020 but you should definitely watch! It's a reality series of a tight-knit group of Deaf students who share their stories and explore life at Gallaudet University.
Cocaine Cowboys - Netflix
A must watch! The true story of how Miami because the drug capital of the US in the 1980s. With interviews from real housewife Alexia Echevarria as her ex-husband is featured on the show. lol
Real Housewives of Miami - Peacock
After a 10 year break my favorite cast is back!
The Woman in the House Across the Street - Netflix
If you watched The Woman in the Window last year, this miniseries has a similar story line and is a spoof on murder mysteries. You know I love my mysteries! In case you're wondering, Kristen Bell drinks hibiscus tea in her wine glass throughout the show.
Big Brother Celebrity Edition - CBS
This is going faster than regular Big Brother as it's on 3x a week. It stars Lamar Odom, Cynthia Baily, Chris Kattan (SNL), Teddi Mellencamp, Todd Bridges, and Shanna Moakler (Travis Barker's ex-wife).
Wentworth - Netflix
New season is out of the Australian version of Orange is the New Black. Full description in this post. I've been watching this show from the beginning, it's so good!
Winter Olympics - NBC
The opening ceremony was last Friday. The US has a Diplomatic Boycott which means they are not sending any lawmakers or newscasters as an official delegation because of China's human rights violations. You can watch a recap of the opening ceremony here.

With Betty White's passing I feel nostalgic about this show and want to watch old episodes since I loved this show when I was kid. Here's a few youtube clips:

Inventing Anna - Netflix
A journalist investigates the case of Anna Delvey aka Anna Sorokin, the convicted con artist who pretended to be a German heiress to swindle banks, hotels, and wealthy acquaintances. I read the book written by a former friend who was swindled out of $62K, more than she made in a year. I can't wait to watch this on netflix! In case you're wondering where Anna is now, she did her time for the fraud, but when she continued to post an opulent lifestyle on Instagram so the authorities picked her up and threw her in an ICE detention center where she remains. Produced by Shonda Rhimes and releases on Feb 11. Trailer
The series is based on a newspaper article about Anna, the reporter was part of the production of the film so really half the story is the reporter's experience. One way Anna defrauded people was by wearing expensive designer clothing which the costume department of this film had to go to designer secondhand stores to be able to create all those expensive looks. There's two actresses on the film also named Anna- Anna Deavere Smith (Maud the reporter) and Anna Chlumsky (Vivian the main reporter who you may recognize from the 1991 movie My Girl).
Bonus
Single Drunk Female - Hulu
I've only watched one episode so can't recommend it yet. It's about a 20 something in recovery. Ally Sheedy plays the mom and Cynthia Bailey makes a cameo.
