This week we stuck with Netflix. We watched a limited Australian series and a doc about a Latinx icon. Then we finished up a classic British comedy series.\xa0

It's not so different DownUnder

Stateless is an Australian import based on the true story of schizophrenic/bipolar Australian women, who was lured into a cult and eventually winds up in an immigrant detention camp. It stars Handmaids Tale Yvonne Strahovski, Cate Blanchett (Mrs. America), and Dominic West (The Wire, The Affair.) Set in the Baxter Detention Camp in Australia, it mirrors the mental health issues and a broken immigration system similar to the United States.

Then, we totally switched gears ...
Mucho Mucho Amor, The Legend of Walter Mercado, is the story of Walter Mercado, a Spanish language TV psychic. Over a decade ago, Mercado disappeared. In this sad, poignant, and sometimes hilarious, feel-good doc, we find out what happened to Mercado and why he holds such a dear spot in the hearts of Latinx millennials.
Lin Manuel Miranda fan boys out when he meets Walter!
Finally, finished Extras!

Whether you've never seen it before or watched it 15 years ago on HBO, it's time to check out Extras on Netflix. Here are a few of our favorite moments.\xa0 (avail on our website)
