(with reservations)

Thanks for sharing - on how not be too judgemental in dating
Copenhagen - how to follow adventure
Sleeping with Other People - for the question of whether or not a guy can be friends with a girl
Scandal - with the caveat of accepted deviant behaviour and extreme gratuitous violence by season 3
Chelsea does marriage
How I met your mother - if you can stomach Barney's narcissistic misogyny
Cuckoo - if you can accept a little crazy, and with Taylor L., his annoying giggle
Playing for keeps?
Now or never?
Broadchurch - serious subjects
The Killing - ditto

The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo
Wallander - man, those swedes are dark!
Two Night Stand - explicit
Friends with Benefits - explicit
Love Happens - Seattle's finest with wooden acting
Master of none - great subjects awkwardly performed
Her - weird but original
Jessica Jones -gratuitous violence but original
A long way down - sensitive look at suicide
Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries - if you okay with her unfaithfulness and nymphomania
The 100 (if lord of the flies was in the future post apocalypse)
Scandal (in and out of reality, but I love the main characters)

Normal People (watched the show, then read the book and still loved it!) - tv version is overly sexualized, but heart wrenching also

DON'T DO IT!
Bourne Identity (great character in good book)
Mama Mia
Gone Girl (book is incredible though!)
Jack Ryan
Wild ( I couldn't get through the beginning; no hiker in their right mind would risk their boot so stupidly)
Downsizing (amazing idea, annoying story)

A Walk in the Woods - disappointing but a great book

James Bond Spectre - gruesome

The Kingsman - gruesome

The Twilight series (movies and books to avoid)
