My Favorite Movies & TV Shows/Series (New & Old) on NETFLIX

Crime/Drama (TV Show/Series)

  1. Breaking Bad – Unless you live under a rock, then you probably know all about Mr. Walter White. A mild-mannered chemistry teacher turns meth kingpin when cancer bills meet cartel chaos. Armed with a science brain and a fedora, Walter White spirals from desperate dad to ruthless legend. Explosions, betrayals, and blue crystals prove one thing: chemistry isn’t just about reactions—it’s about transformation, baby.
  • Ozark – Jason Bateman plays a money-laundering accountant drags his family to the Ozarks, where lakeside cabins hide cartel secrets and suburban stress. Crime and PTA meetings collide as the Byrdes juggle business, betrayal, and bodies. It’s small-town America with a deadly twist—where fortune favors the bold, but mistakes cost everything. This show also introduced me to Julia Garner (Ruth), whom is AMAZING in everything she does….
  • Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil & Vile – I had know idea that Zac Effron could play dark, but he killed it (haha, nice pun, eh?) Ted Bundy through the eyes of his girlfriend: handsome, charming, and hiding monsters behind a smile. This chilling retelling blurs charisma with cruelty, showing how evil often looks ordinary. Courtrooms, confessions, and manipulation unfold in a true-crime thriller that’s equal parts captivating and stomach-turning.
  • Killing Eve – This show introduced me to the amazing Jodie Comer and I am telling you that anything she is in she is ‘da BOMB!!! Anyway the premise is, an MI6 agent becomes obsessed with a stylish assassin, and the feeling is… mutual. Their cat-and-mouse chase turns flirty, bloody, and delightfully twisted across Europe. Think espionage with couture and cheeky banter, where obsession fuels chaos and every encounter feels like a dangerously glamorous game.
  • Dirty John – A true-crime cautionary tale: a charming man sweeps a successful woman off her feet—only to reveal sinister lies, manipulation, and deadly intent. Love turns toxic, families fracture, and obsession spirals out of control. It’s romance gone rotten, proving not every prince is worth kissing.

    I’m Rosalind,

    …. a 47-year-old single mom with a passion for movies and TV shows, a love for (my) tattoos, my kiddos, and a home base right here in sunny (and sometimes unbearably, humid) Florida.

    Forget the stuffy reviews and complicated critiques. Here at “Reel Review Mom” , you’ll get real takes on what’s worth watching, straight from my living room to yours. We’ll dive into everything from the latest blockbusters and streaming sensations to hidden gems and nostalgic favorites.

    My goal is simple: to help you decide what to watch next, whether you’re looking for a laugh after a long day, a thrilling escape, or just some quality screen time.

    It’s about honest opinions, relatable experiences, and maybe even a little bit about balancing life as a mom with a serious love for the silver screen.

    Last, but not least, don’t be a stranger! I want to hear from you… If you have some amazing movie/TV show find & want to share it (e.g. you can’t keep the joy and excitement to yourself), then reach out.

    So grab your favorite snack, perhaps a glass of Cabernet, kick back, and let’s find your next binge!
