Turn Your Movie into a Binge
A great movie can leave you on a high that lasts for a couple of days. Rewatch the movie, and you feel it again, but to a lesser degree. But find a new series and you can experience the high over a longer period of time--if you're patient, it can even last over a period of months or maybe even years! The challenge is finding the right formula for the perfect choice. I've taken a sampling of movies from different genres and tried to pair them with a show and a snack of the same "formula" that will give the same type of chemical reaction when you watch it.

Monk, but from Finland
Monk is a fun, formulaic crimody (crime-comedy) series, set in San Francisco. It aired on USA Network for eight seasons: from 2002 to 2009. In the series, Tony Shalhoub plays the title character, Adrian Monk. Monk offered viewers—me among them—an easy-to-watch hour of humorous, but relatively well-developed mysteries, solved by a likable group of detectives. Adrian Monk, in particular, is a charming character. His brilliance as a detective, however, is counterbalanced by his melancholy demeanor (after the death of his wife), fear of germs and general OCD-driven behavior. When it aired, it was one of the most popular shows on television—so you are probably familiar with the show, even if you haven’t seen it.

Schitt's Creek
Where do I go from here? This challenge feels particularly personal because Schitt's Creek ending has left a two-star motel-sized hotel star in my heart, so filling that hole and finding something that could rub me the same way might be a stretch. That's why it's called a challenge, right?

If Sex in the city, than This is Us
I believe what we all really need at this time, in 2021, is more shows on human connection. It is truly soothing to watch people engage in social interactions on the big screen. I can speak for myself when I say watching people interact with each other in a pre-covid era brings a lot of joy to my heart. Simply to see people engaging less than 6 feet apart with complete strangers is refreshing. What a crazy year this has been and, it’s safe to say, we all feel a little bit lonely in 2021. These difficult times remind us all that family and friends is what matters most. Which is why I’ve been bringing back classics filled with friendly banter and humour to get my family through. From Friends, Two and half men, Weeds, Full House and Sex in the city. All these shows bring a lot of happiness in our household. I truly believe that if you enjoyed Sex in the city, then you should also binge watch This is us created by Don Folgelman in 2016.

It took me 2 days to finish Bridgerton on Netflix...
I love period time shows. Some of my favorites are Versailles, The Crown, The Tudors, Downtown Abby, The Last Kingdom, and Sherlock. I have other favorites like Gilmore Girls, The Originals, Blacklist, Sabrina, Criminal Minds, The Magicians, and Virgin River, I am embarrassed to say, that these are my usual fall backs. I watch them while getting ready in the morning, cooking dinner, walking my laps around the living room- many I have seen two or three times. My youngest still knows to get the chocolate ready when I hit that final episode of Gilmore Girls and Rory tells Lorelai that she is pregnant- and then NOTHING! No follow on! Does she get back with Logan? Does she finally get together with Jess? Do Lorelai and Luke live happily ever after? Years later, this show still bothers me....can I please get some closure?!?!?!?

The Evolution of Telling a Story in Film & TV
Filmmaking and Storytelling is a work of art. As an author and a child at heart, I’ve always loved any marvelous storytelling. The essence of a good story is marvelous storytelling. Making the fantastical come to life. In novels, this is done through words, both descriptive and telling. In Film and TV, the basis of keeping people to continue watching a show is epic storytelling. Now a day’s films are often done in trilogies, and in order for those movies to work, it needs to have a story that people want to continue to watch.

The X-Files/Goonies Mash-Up
When a show I love ends, sometimes it legitimately feels a little sad. You've watched the characters grow and change, and you likely relate to at least one or two of them. And then, just like that, they're gone. And you're looking for something to fill the void those characters left behind. That's what happened to me when X-Files was taken off the air.

I am a We: The Wachowskis take us from the Matrix to Sense8
In 1999, The Matrix blew the minds of audiences worldwide with its cyberpunk dystopian story of a computer hacker discovering the world he lived in was a simulated reality. From its revolutionary storytelling, incredible new age fighting choreography, and its popularization of the slow-motion tactic to enhance a scene, this film sealed itself into every science fiction lover's heart and became a phenomenon and a staple of the genre.
