Back with another monthly watch list recap!

Once a month I send out a list of everything I watched the previous month to give you some ideas of things to add to your own watch lists, so I’m here to share the rundown of all of the stuff I watched in January.

This is the first monthly roundup available only to paid subscribers!

If you’re already a paid subscriber, thank you so much for your support and enjoy the list — I really appreciate it. If you’re not, please consider signing up for $6/month or $60/year to get access to my monthly watch lists and more.

If you’d rather remain a free subscriber, no worries — I won’t hold it against you! You’ll continue receiving Friday’s recommendation roundups for free.

Anyway, note that I only include seasons of TV shows that I finished in any given month — if it’s still on or I’m still currently watching it, then I’ll include it when it’s over.

You’ll find that my reactions to things lean positive, because 1. I actively try to seek out stuff that I expect to be entertaining, has been well reviewed and/or has value to me — I’m not just going to watch the most popular show on Netflix because everyone else is if I don’t think I would like it — and 2. I’ve given myself more leeway recently to give up on shows that I’m not enjoying (here’s the list of all the shows I dropped last year). I used to force myself to finish things even if I hated them, which is truly unnecessary and a waste of time.
