Great Kids Shows for Summer Break

School’s out – though it was only sort of in – and your kids need to be fed! Be fed awesome, interesting shows, that is. This one from Good Housekeeping gets my seal of approval for mixing it up with something for everyone. Some are new, some are old and all are worth checking out!

Helpful June Highlights

A nice little slideshow from CNN that hops across the landscapes for some highlights, new and old. From Casino to The Making of Frozen 2, there are some interesting suggestions here for the month ahead.

Theme That Binge: The Wild!

,

Ah, yes… You can binge your way through a show. You can binge your way towards a goal. And, of course, you can binge your way across a theme. I love this style, because there’s plenty of chance to compare and contrast. So it’s a new little feature to play with here at Bingelandia, and we tip our hats to Screenrants for putting this WILD platter together!

The Lay of the Streaming Land

Maybe not the most entertaining link to post, but Forbes looks at all of the big streamers to see what they’re planning and how they’re spending. And that could give you an insight or two as you plan for which services you want and how you’ll be spending:)

Not your cup of tea, you say? Well, read on! Variety makes a compelling case for why the light fare is the right fare for folks stuck at home right now. Which is, of course, pretty much all of us…

Documentaries That Mix It UP

,

You may not think you’re in the mood for a documentary, but just try to make it through this list without pulling your streamer-finger at least once. There’s more than you might expect here, including quick hits like the Vox series Explained that will get you up to speed fast on everything from cryptocurrency to the rise of K Pop. Thanks for the tips, AV Club!

Worth a Second Look?

,

Not even sure this is a movie recommendation as much as it’s a review recommendation. And not even sure it’s a review recommendation as it’s just a link to a review recommending something I’m not sure I recommend. But maybe I do. As you can tell, I’ve never really been sure how to feel about Mike Myers’ version of “The Cat in the Hat.” But still, maybe a double feature with the latest insane “Cats” is lurking?…

Rev Yourself Up to the HBO Max

,

Another new streamer is set to hit on May 27th. What can you expect from HBO Max? Well, just take a look at this list compiled by The Verge. It’s looking like a wide and deep set of classics for the price of a movie ticket a month. Tempting, indeed!

Seeking Closure? These Movies Nail the Ending

,

It’s true: Sometimes a good ending is the very thing that makes a movie actually live on in your mind far after the lights come up. Be a little careful with this great Buzzfeed list… some of the reviews get into spoiler territory… but def give it a read. True story satisfaction awaits.
