What Are You Streaming?

/

Here are some things we have been streaming lately, and things I’m waiting not so patiently for.

My Favs…

Poker Face - Natasha Lyonne is a non-tradition sleuth with the uncanny ability to tell when people are lying.

The Residence - This fun murder mystery, set in the White House, has some quirky situations, and everyone has a reason to want the butler dead.

Man on the Inside - Ted Danson is the amateur of all amateur sleuths when he moves into a senior community to solve a crime. The characters are original, and there are some heart-warming moments.

Department Q - This is an intense, character-driven series with lots of twists and turns.

Please Hurry and Release These…
