The first series of Mexico is quite good. Don't Google anything about the characters.

I've just learned that you can insert your own subtitle files while watching Netflix in a browser window, and I've found subs for the full first series of Terrace House.
That VPN subscription is paying for itself already.
I like to watch Netflix, i enjoy it lots. I love my netflix and it loves me.
But I have friends who have Netflix AND Prime, and they do nothing else. One friend will say to me 'I'm watching this show 'This is Us' on amazon and its good but sad.' I watch an episode, its some heartfelt drama thing I may watch some more of, im not sure. A week later I've watched 2 more episodes. In that time she has watched 4-5 Series.
HOW? WHY? WHY DO PEOPLE WATCH SO MUCH TV AND SERIES.
And they've always got something on the go they're binging like this. Getting through series after series after series, recommending more and more and more; ' have you seen bridgerton, have you seen vikings, have you seen umbrella academy, have you seen this us, have you seen suits, have you seen. I just don't understand how they have time in their lives to do absolutely anything else. Is anyone else the same as me, or are you all dirty bingers?
This Is Us always felt like manufactured sadness in a way that just felt wrong to me. Seemed like every episode was actively yelling at me to make tears happen.
On binging, rare is the show I will binge - I need to really be into it to want watch a lot of it. Stuff that's 40-60 minutes an episode isn't very bingeable to me - unless I have an excessive amount of time off and can just blast through, like I did with BSG several years ago.
