Sherry, IMHO, you haven't missed anything by not seeing The Shining. I realize it's considered a cult classic (they sure do play it up when you visit The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park for the "ghost tour"), but it was hardly anything like the book and not a fraction as good (and not a great movie in its own right).

Began watching the series and am now in the 2nd season. Fabulous, we love it!!
It may not be *relaxing* but it's what we watch at night to relax anyway.

Love Black Mirror! "Crocodile" from this season might have one of the darkest ones yet.

For fans of Black Mirror, might I suggest another British tv show called "Inside Number 9." It's another very smart, always-keeps-you-on-your-toes series that ranges from "dark comedy" to "pretty darn dark." It's free on Hulu, or you can watch it on Amazon with a 1-week free trial of BritBox.

Thanks for the heads up! We have Hulu, will check it out.

Our son recommended a British Netflix show called "End of the F**king World."
It's twisted and bizarre, and apparently has an actor from one of the Black Mirror episodes. We have not watched it yet.

BritBox? That sounds intriguing? Is it anything like Acorn TV?

BritBox is like Acorn . They have a free trial. You can stream it through Amazon Video but I am not sure if they have all the material that the actual Britbox site has. I contacted them about it a few months ago and they said they were working on it. I do not have a Roku and wanted to see the most recent seasons of the British show "Cold Feet."
