After we wrap The Boys S4, I'll be getting started with HOTD S2...FINALLY!
But what other show should I start alongside it? Looking forward to seeing what y'all pick!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, I know we typically kick off Mondays with a reaction, but I still need some time to catch up on filming. I ended up getting stuck in Denver for an extra day when our flight was cancelled haha. But more content will be coming soon this week!
Here is the schedule:
MON: Series Poll
TUE: Movie Poll
WED: Peaky Blinders S1E5
THU: The Boys S4E7
FRI: Apollo 13

Desperate for her to watch Bojack Horseman. Or has she seen it? She seems like the perfect audience for the conversations in the show.
Why why why why why... WHY PB losed this poll.
Breaking Bad is such an amazing show.I wonder has she seen it already?
I'm curious if you'll check out Loki Season 2, not sure if she said anything about it or taking a break from the marvel shows but I thought it was a really good second season to an already decent first season.
Another possible, though there are a ton of episodes and it is a major commitment and Natalie may have already watched it in "real life"......BUFFY the VAMPIRE SLAYER.....Just a real fun show.
Just want to put this out there, it is one of the best TV shows of all time (at least for me and many others)....THE WIRE!!!!
Are you thinking of watching House of the Dragon season 2? :)
She is starting it alongside whatever wins this poll
Any of the above!
the way it kept going back to a tie but i think at this point in the week she might have already filmed the first episode of the winner.
A couple suggestions for shows are Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul! Both S tier shows or maybe Righteous Gemstones 💎 for something more comedy centric.
really hope The Bear/Barry wins one of these polls one day
Man I hope that Barry wins one of these polls at some point , such an amazing show. Really shows Bill Hader’s range as an actor. Also really hoping you return to finish off season 3 of Daredevil at some point!
Holy shit xmen in the lead🙌
If I might suggest a show not on your list that I'm sure you'll love how about: Farscape! Jim Henson Productions doing a serious Sci-Fi show. Just think about it.
Literally just joined to see if there was any talk of X-Men 97 and to vote for it if possible. Glad it's in the running. I think I might have even broken the tie, for the time being. Also, I very much second the notion of Severance, and while I'm at it throw out The Rehearsal as a future rec.
Oh wow PB is tied with X-Men now! Interesting. Maybe do another poll with just those 2?
please guys vote for x-men 97. it's a short show. we can watch this one first and then watch peaky blinders pretty soon anyway.
I don’t know who your followers are.. but not voting for Barry should be a crime💔
Barry is one of those shows i think natalie especially would appreciate having worked in casting. I hope one day she just makes an executive decision to check it out
Hopefully you can one day react to the crowded room with Tom Holland! It's incredible.
I voted for X-Men ‘97, but The Bear is definitely a must watch. My sister and I recommend it. On a side note, I’m gonna get The Perfect Mix to watch X-Men ‘97 this weekend. They’re gonna want a new show to react to. Who’s in?
Starting a story on episode 77 of season 6 makes sense.
She started season 3 of Peaky Blinders and went back... maybe she'll do the same here?
Would love to see your reaction to the show Severance. Please add to the next poll. It’s such an amazing show and season 2 is coming next year
No Hazbin hotel? Would be a perfect show for a theathre kid like yourself and since it's got two songs per episode that people love seeing reaction to it would get people to join patreon. I know I would.
lol X-Men? Hmm she might need to watch a catchup video on the previous seasons. For some reason this feels like a potential Avatar live action situation to me, but we'll see
I am kind of with you. If you haven't seen the original cartoons, or have not read any of the comics the material is from.... even though this is super-hero fun - there's no nostalgia, there's a lot of questions with no answers, they have nothing to do with any of the movies, and it's really more kid friendly. Thankfully, they are short and it will only take a month to get through if X-men wins.
Wow, x-men is winning? Alright. Not bad.
Don't give up on Barry, NAT!!!!
Star Trek is great, and if you are going to get into Star Trek I think you should absolutely watch some of the original series. But you should absolutely not watch the entire first season. There are some amazing episodes in the show, and some amazingly bad episodes as well. There are probably 10, maybe 15 max, episodes of the original shows three seasons that you should watch and then it would be the 6 movies that follow that crew from the original show. That’s probably the best way to view the stories of the original crew now.
So we're going to watch the 6th season of a show without watching the first 5 seasons but won't continue on a second season of a show we haven't finished the first yet xD This is the weirdest poll results I've seen here so far.
I don't think it's really season 6. I didn't watch original x-men tas but still enjoyed x-men 97 a lot. and some other people did too.
X-men 97 fans this is our moment 😭 and please guys remember it’s short so we can get to another soon
Oh yeah thank you a lot for that...
X-men 97 is really short too. so you can just watch two episodes a day so you can finish it and watch other shows again.
please watch x-men 97. it's been so long since this good came out from Marvel.
X-men 97 LFG
If you watch Alice in borderland and address me as the most annoying Patreon member you have I can accept that
Neither of those…. Watch Alice in Borderland. You’re missing out on an actual quality Netflix show.
Star Trek OG is a tough vote. Not a whole lot of people have paramount+ and no one is watching ads on Pluto tv service. can you imagine trying to sync up with 4 ad breaks in between a 30 min show. Maybe replace it in future polls with a show that is accessible to most viewers.
TRUST ME the Bear is soooooooooooooo good
I hope you watch My Adventures with Superman such a good show and helps you get to know characters that might appear in the new Superman movie next year
You'll really regret not watching all 6 seasons of Peaky Blinders. Also the Bear is awesome.
ugh super hero stuff
can't even imagine how much she won't like X-Men 97. I almost hope it wins to watch the train wreck
Shit that would be something lol I just wish she would do more films and less shows smh sigh
SICARIO MOVIE recommendation
I need your help getting Natalie to watch The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel . If you have not heard of this show it's an American period comedy-drama television series. Amazon Original that has won multiple Golden Globes and Critic Choice awards. And you should see for your self.
I legit kinda assumed she’s seen it already. A show about a Jewish NYC comedienne I imagine would be right up her alley.
None of these. So much better things to watch. Maybe I will leave and comeback in a year
Lemme just throw in another Star Wars: The Clone Wars recommendation while we’re at it 🫣😌 i know Star Wars isn’t your favourite genre but the show is good enough to singlehandedly reignite a passion for it tbh 🥹 it’s so rewarding Also voted for X-Men 👁️
Don’t let her just watch one season of peaky blinders……
I just don’t get why S2 is even an option like if she’s enjoying than she should continue reacting to it
🐻
Going with Peaky Blinders S2 here, The Bear S1 is the best of the three seasons but it drops off from there IMO. X-Men is fine, but feels tailor made for folks who have a lot of nostalgia for the original series, idk that it'd make great reaction content.
While season 1 of the bear is the strongest I would say season 2 has the best two episodes of all 3 seasons in it
Orphan Black, Vox Machina, Castelvania.
I suspect a lot of people didn't watch X-men past the first episode and don't understand what the rest of us in that giant voting bloc now know. I'd be super excited if you were jump into any gaps you have in that golden age of prestige HBO like Sopranos, Six Feet Under, Rome and Boardwalk Empire. Definitely fits your palate and intellect.
Just going to ask that Legend of Vox Machina returns to the polls. I think it had a couple 2nd place finishes. Season 3 releases on Oct 3, so it would be a good time to give it a try.
I second this!!
Also og star trek has some of the best scifi episodes ever and some of the WORST.
I'd suggest going back and seeing the 90s XMen before 97, but it's all up to you.
Honestly, I've really been enjoying peaky blinders and hope you continue it
Seasons 1 and 2 of Barry would be so good, particularly from Nat, especially the acting class scenes. Though I am really liking Peaky Blinders and I am hooked on that. X-Men '97 is just terrible.
The Bear would be so great! Phenomenal series that is a fast watch! Also, Star Trek Strange New Worlds would be a better fit as it is a shorter series but still feels like Star Trek. The biggest issues with that series and TNG is just how long they are for your to commit to. 20+ episodes a season is a lot.
The Sinner!!! For the love of god !!! plzzzz
Star Trek Strange New worlds it's technically the prequel so is a better launching point
I agree. Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is a great starting point. It is by far the best of the modern Star Trek shows (post-2015) and works well as a standalone. Yes, there are some references to what happened in Star Trek: Discovery, but I feel like they are not at all essential to enjoy the show.
Sould peaky blinders even be on here since your already reacting to it while reacting to the boy's ?
She is doing it 1 season at a time, so that she is not stuck watching a Long Show every time. So if she likes a show she will put the next season in a Poll for us.
BSG would be a treat - maybe if/when it shows up again on a streaming platform? I would also love to see Nat dive into The Americans.
I agree on The Americans but it'll never win a poll, not enough people even know what it is, but yeah it's awesome and I want to watch it now...
Barry will never win a poll unfortunately
It's a shame but also there are better shows out there, I feel like Barry dipped in quality after like season 2. And tbh the only reason I want a Barry reaction is ti get her reaction to one very particular scene between old army friends
I’ve tried to like the bear..it’s okay but verrry overrated
I hope we eventually get LOST to win a poll
Idk if this would ever be a show you’re interested in but if you’re looking for something short and fun, I recommend Gravity Falls on Disney Plus. There’s a lot of renewed interest in the fandom since a new book just came out but it my also be fun for Natmare season
Gravity falls would be good if she really got into the mystery and clues but she don’t got time for that.
"Peaky fookin blinders" gets my vote. Tbh, kinda of confused why continuing a show you started is in a poll but I'll keep voting for it until it's finished.
Same
I’ll continue hoping for Severance someday and vote for X-Men for now. Would love Trek but start with TNG. Nat would LOVE Barry btw
What We Do In The Shadows
Come on Trekkies! 🖖
Peaky season 2 is so gooooood imo🔥
For All Mankind will get me back as a full subscriber. Also, Loki Season 2.
Barry block is so underrated
I went with X-Men. I like Star Trek, but I don't think you need to watch the whole season. I have no interest in the other shows.
As much as I’d like you to continue peaky, the bear is to good
Omg yesterday i was thinking how i feel like you'd love The Bear!!!
Continue Peaky obv. Definitely the bear afterward. I've heard good things about Barry. XMen 97 I couldn't sit through. The dialogue is so elementary. Meant to continue the original series which is its biggest strength and weakness.
If X-men 97 loses to peaky fucking blinders I’ll cry
The Bearry
Come on X-Men ‘97 I need her reaction especially for Episode 5!
Just a heads up once again that X-Men 97 is essentially the 6th season to a TV show. You CAN just jump in and work your way through it, but it's 5 years of time travel, space aliens, government conspiracies, love triangles, clones and all kinds of other shit and it expects you to know most of that before starting. It doesn't hold your hand.
Battlestar Galactica needs to go back up!
It's a bit weird to poll to continue a show that you just started IMO >_> Those are 6 episodes season.... I feel like it won the first poll it should be watched all the way through not have to be re-polled every seasons?
That's one of her things lol, I've been waiting damn near three years now (idk I lost track) she reacted to Rocky ages ago and I assumed the rest will follow but she polled Rocky two and it didn't win but that should never be a thing, you can't not follow through with the rocky films lol 🤷
The Bear first pick with Barry a close second. The Bear is much shorter both in number of episodes as well as episode length so easier to get through. Barry on the other hand is more lighthearted so a nice change of pace from all the other shows.
No season 2 House of the Dragon?
This is a poll for what show to watch alongside HotD S2
Please anything but ST:TOS. I have been seeing it on other reactor's channels, and man... it does not hold up. If we are going to start trekkin'... start with TNG. TOS looks like a high school play compared to modern Trek. Poor sets. Poor writing. Bad acting. And even the stories are not very intriguing. Forbidden Planet may suffer from some of that - but at least the story and sci-fi premise is A+.
This is why I say just watch a few important and popular episodes of TOS.
Other than Peaky Blinders S2 there's not really anything on the poll that really pulls me
I have a feeling you’ll really enjoy Barry. But I think you should keep going with peaky blinders if you’re enjoying it. Season 2 is my favorite and the show only gets better with the introduction of Tom hardy etc.
The sopranos
Damn I'd love it if she gave Sopranos a shot
Oof! That's a tough one. I chose Barry because I need to see that one myself, and watching with Nat is good enough for me. My second choice is X-Men 97.
Peaky blinders s2 is Magnificent 🙌🏻
I selected X-Men 97, but my real answer is legend of Vox Machina.
You'll want to continue Peaky Blinders. Go with it. (Jedi mind trick attempt).
Can’t wait to see AoT in the future pole! That will be complete cinema!
Happy Monday Nat. Hope you had an awesome trip and got back safely 😊 Stuck between more Peaky and some classic Trek. I don't know 😬 Ok, lets go with more Peaky Blinders to see what happens😊
The bear
We must get Barry. It’s too perfect for this.
I hope Vox Machina comes back in future polls.
Beat DJ Low ;) Also! The Bear or BARRY!
I was finding it hard to choose 😂
on my hands and knees for the bear 🙏😭
…Doctor Who…
Goooodddddd morning 😎😎😎 X-men fosho
The Bear!!!
