I have to say I am not particularly a massive fan of Kevin Hart as his style of comedy is personally not one that I am interested in but his new Netflix original show Don’t Fuck This Up has really given me a new perspective on him as a person! These “inside look into artists […]
Welcome back to another edition of “Which is Better” here on Nerdly. I tend to, in past articles focus on specific movies or series’ or television shows, but I thought, for the pure hell of it, to pit two big streaming services against each other and decide which is the better of the two. Now, […]
I have to confess, to start this review, that I have a slight bias for this show as I personally appear in the background as an extra and I was also invited to the Welsh premier screening… but I will try to remain as unbiased as possible. Sex Education is a coming-of-age comedy, a Netflix […]
Stars: RuPaul, Izzy G., Michael-Leon Wooley, Josh Segarra, Katerina Tannenbaum, Tia Carrere, Matthew Wilkas, Jo Farkas, Shawana Carter | Created by Michael Patrick King, RuPaul As an avid fan of Ru Paul’s Drag Race, I was tremendously excited when it was announced that RuPaul would be staring in a new Netflix show titled AJ and the Queen […]
I am always skeptical of shows that are about other shows as it can often seem like the new shows are just cashing in on the success of an older film but the creative team behind the Netflix original show The Movies That Made Us made sure that this was not the case while always […]
Having been an (albeit relaxed) fan of Dolly Parton for some while, I was so excited to watch her new Netflix original series Heartstrings and the series gave me everything it needed to and more! Heartstrings completely captures the essence of Dolly Parton through and through. This means that if you are a fan of hers […]
When I saw that there was a brand new sketch series on Netflix titled Astronomy Club I was very confused as this is not the title you would expect from this type of show… but I was pleasantly surprised. Astronomy Club is a show perfectly made for binge-watching. Each episode is only around 20 minutes with […]
Historical Roasts is a Netflix original comedy series that follows in the same vein as the Comedy Central celebrity roast series. It has a famous face of the past to come on the show to ‘roast each’ and to be ‘roasted’ which basically means to insult each other in a comical fashion. This is a […]
The prank show format has seen a decline in recent years but I can remember as a child watching the likes of Prank Patrol where they would prank unexpected members of the public which were hilarious and, to be honest, one of the TV highlights of my childhood. This was why I was extremely excited […]

Daybreak is a Netflix Original series set in a post-apocalyptic future where only the young people have survived and the older generation is dead or turned into zombie-like creatures.

Momentum is a new Netflix Original comedy special which is written by, and staring Mo Gilligan. Having only known of Mo from his minor role on the Big Narstie show, where he is almost the side-kick to Bigs’ antics on the show, I was not aware of how funny and extremely clever Gilligan is – […]
Having seen the other two seasons of Big Mouth I was very excited for the third season to finally be released on Netflix. If you haven’t heard of the show, it’s an animated series that deals with a very important period in a child’s development – namely puberty – but also deals with many other […]
The Netflix original The Politician is a fascinating look into the possible consequences of unhealthy obsessions with ambition and determination which is something not many TV shows look into. Too many times we see a determined character who risks friendships, relationships, family etc to achieve the thing they crave and they achieve their dreams making […]
I have been waiting for a new Jeff Dunham comedy special for the longest time and finally Beside Himself was put on Netflix, a special for which I could not be more excited. The title is obviously a pun and shows the intelligence and comedy of the show itself. Beside himself as a phrase describes […]
Like many Brits probably do, I know Simon Amstell for his run as one of the hosts of the BBC 2 late-night music-quiz comedy show Never Mind the Buzzcocks. He was a nerdy, sarcastic comedian who was often very funny with his interactions with the guests on the show. Aside from that, though, I haven’t […]
I’ve been a fan of Netflix’s GLOW show since it first landed a couple of years ago on the platform. It’s a total joyous, wild, funny, gritty and dramatic program that ticks so many of the boxes I look for in my television drama. Oh, and it’s about pro-wrestling, something else I’m pretty damn fond […]
