Peaky Blinders

This is a show on Netflix that I am currently in love with. It's rough and a bit violent but it's real. Here's the summary directly from Netflix:

"A notorious gang in 1919 Birmingham, England, is led by the fierce Tommy Shelby, a crime boss set on moving up in the world no matter the cost."

Like I said, it is quite rough and also there are quite a few sex scenes so if you were thinking this might be a fun "family movie night" choice think again. For those of you who have seen Gangs of New York I've been told they are quite similar.

Something that really drew me in right away was the music. It may be set 100 years ago, but the music is modern. I actually recognized a few of the artists, like the Arctic Monkeys and The White Stripes, and it just made it that much more easy to get sucked in.

So if you're looking for something intense and exciting, this show is definitely worth a look!

The 100

This TV show is fairly new, having started in March of 2014. I just started watching it about a week ago and OF COURSE I binge-watched the crap out of it so I'm already caught up haha. The story line is set in the future, after humans have so destroyed the earth that they have to live on a spaceship called the Ark. However, their oxygen supply is dwindling and they have to find a way to save themselves. They send down 100 prisoners, children and teens, to see if the Earth is inhabitable. Not only are they able to survive there, but they are not alone. I don't want to give too much away, so I'll leave it at that. It is quite intense as far as violence, but it's not gory exactly. There are also a few sex scenes but they don't actually show anything too graphic. As the show progresses it does get more intense, so I mean I wouldn't watch it with my grandmother or anything. Unless your grandma is super chill and is like, "Bring it on!"

I rate this show: Love It
