Hi guys!
Welcome to another episode of #LifeAtTSL.
Today, we’re going to go around the office,
and ask everybody what are their Netflix recommendations.
What are their last watched,
and what are their top 3 recommendations.
Wee!
Hello Miss Steph.
Hello.
Our beautiful colleague over here who has hair even brighter
than Miss Charmaine Sew behind the camera.
So Steph, do you watch Netflix?
Yes..
What is your last watched?
Spy x Family.
Okay, Miss Charmaine Sew behind is nodding in agreement.
Yes, anime.
So what are your top 3 recommendations?
I really like Strangers from Hell.
It’s so sinister so I kind of love it.
If you want to value add in terms of your knowledge of culture,
you can watch Pose.
Last one.. Oh my god.
Oh. Cable Girls.
If you like adventure that kind of thing, you may like it.
So it’s movie?
Oh it’s a 4 season series.
I think it’s set in the 1920s and 30s, the fashion is like *amazing*
Love it.
So you get good looking Spanish women and good looking Spanish men.
Yeah.
Did you hear about Netflix wanting to increase price,
as well as curb the password sharing, and even add advertisement?
Yes, so right.. this one I very agitated okay.
So, the first 2 I can be very understanding to you.
But why do you want to put ads?
The reason why I want to watch a streaming show is because I don't want advertisements.
You put advertisements already I might as well just go to any streaming websites
like *** or something to go and watch.
If they really implement it right…
I WILL UNSUBSCRIBE!
BYE! >:(
Then I’ll go subscribe to other things.
Maybe like *** or something.
WAH.. this women ah.
Women with a mission.
Yes I’m calling you out okay, Netflix!
So like please think properly about the advertisements.
Hello Miss Adria.
Hello.
Do you watch Netflix?
Yes I do.
Okay.
What is your last watched series or movie?
Actually right, I just finished Twenty-five Twenty-one.
Were you disappointed by the ending?
-No… -Or is it an ending that everybody deserves?
As in like I think it’s a very realistic ending.
I don’t like the real ending.
Ya I know you don’t like but then sometimes life is real.
No, okay.
There are certain shows where the ending is natural.
But this show just make me feel very sad.
You build up to everything then you make their relationship
so wonderful and so beautiful and then it just ends.
But sometimes it’s just bittersweet like that.
So you recommend?
I recommend!
And I really like Kim Tae Ri.
Kim Tae Ri <33 ~
You won't be seeing this but <3 ! ~
What are your top 3 recommendations on Netflix?
Unorthodox, it’s a limited series.
- Hear before. - Damn nice.
It’s about cults.
But if you are into that you can watch it.
I like Us and Them.
It’s one of my favorite films.
uwu
Sorry.
uwu
Okay then?
I must have all different genre one.
So the last one is the serious type and a bit thriller type.
Watch The Platform.
- Oh, ya. The Plantform. - Ya.
That show a bit disturbing.
I watch already I was a bit disturbed for quite awhile.
Hello Zhin!
Hello!
Do you watch Netflix?
Yes! ~ I love Netflix.
Sorry I just shouted in your mic.
Everyday I must watch.
Oh wow, everyday?
Yes everyday I will watch.
- Wah.. somebody got time sia…. Somebody. - Got ~
So what is your last watched?
My last watch is this anime called Kakegurui.
Okay, that one I got watch before.
It’s the gambling one right?
Yes, it’s an anime about gambling, school girls they gamble.
Then like... Yeah.
But…
What?
What you want to say?
What?
The story line is perfect.
But it’s so sexual.
It’s like the girl ah..
“AaaAHHhh~ SuMimasEn (I’m sorry) ~
Then got like wet wet got rain all.
What are your top 3 all time recommendations?
Top 3 all time.
I’m quite a boring person because I tend to watch the same thing over and over again.
So I think Friends is something we all know.
- Boo! So boring. - Okay Okay >:(
I always watch it, I’m just going to be honest.
But my top 3 right, is
- Sabrina the teenage witch (Chilling adventure of Sabrina) - Oh, okay.
I also like to watch Stranger Things.
Amazing amazing.
And then the last one ah..
The last one let me check my Netflix.
Can give two?
One is Avatar legend of Aang (The last air bender)
Because it's amazing.
I freaking love Avatar legend of Aang.
The other one is Business Proposal.
Oh, you also must watch this show.
Is it cake.
Oh yeah!
It’s very good.
It’s like those mindless show that you watch when you eating then you very entertained.
Ya.
But sometimes it’s like so obvious that it’s cake.
But I don’t know why they cannot see.
Yeah. But I don’t know why they cannot see.
Yeah.
Have you heard of the news about them wanting to add advertisements into Netflix?
No!! :(
The purpose of us paying is so that we can avoid the advertisements.
Then what?
What if there is a plan where you have to pay even more
money to avoid the advertisements.
Will you pay even more?
No la!
Eh ya.. aiya.. I..
So are you disappointed by the news?
Very.
Stop it ah!
Don’t do it please :(
I’m begging you.
I mean I love you so much, but please don’t.
Okay, hi Fauzi.
Hello.
Do you watch Netflix?
In fact almost everyday.
- Almost everyday? - Okay.
I feel like it’s seasonal.
This is the current season that I have been watching series after series.
What are you top 3 recommendations?
Huh…
Okay right now, number 1.
I would recommend Heartstopper.
It’s a queer series.
Very cute, very I would say, very wholesome
BL (Boy Love) kind of a show.
And I love BLs
The next thing that I would say is Elite.
The kind of shows that Fauzi watch I can predict.
- Really right? - A bit like scandalous.
I love.
The more scandals the better.
You tell me to watch slow show with nothing happening,
- No thank you man. - Ya.
I would recommend The Circle.
Only because I think it’s really quite an interesting concept for a reality show.
It’s a bit like Big Brother plus Survival.
But under the guise of a social media interaction kind of thing.
So I think it’s very interesting.
Have you heard that Netflix is going to include advertisements?
I’ve heard.
They are going to increase the prices,
And they are going to curb the password sharing?
Wait.
Oh no…
Oh my goodness..
Wait wait wait.
I need to think about it.
I still would pay eh..
You still would pay?
Because they still create some reality shows that I still like to watch.
Yeah.
But the sharing the password thing might deter me though.
Oh is it?
Like let’s say I can’t share my account with my brothers.
Then I might rethink it.
Okay.
So you got your answer.
Thank you very much Fauzi.
That’s it ah?
Yes.
Wah.
Do you watch Netflix?
Yes I do.
How many hours a week?
Err.. oh.
How many hours a day?
No actually not everyday.
Oh not everyday.
Yeah. Because like I everyday play game.
- Oh yes. - So like play game no time to watch Netflix.
Pick a poison right?
Correct.
- I cannot do everything at once. - Oh okay.
Then my next question is what is your last watched?
Recently I started this Chinese drama called Falling into your smile.
Because it was on my recommended.
And let me tell you,
I’m a sucker for anything E-Sports.
I’m a sucker for anything Chinese drama because Chinese dramas are like..
It’s so cringey right,
- Hair will stand that kind. - Yeah but I love it.
I love it.
Another two recommendations you have for our audience.
Another two recommendations?
Spy x Family.
It’s an anime.
- You are the second person to say this. - Say Spy x Family?
- Yeah. - It’s so good.
What’s your third one?
Erm..
Oh!
I watch Love is War.
Okay, it’s another anime.
- It’s about this girl and guy who are - Enemies again.
Kind of. The vibes. Again.
Have you heard of that news where Netflix says they might include advertisements,
- Oh. - As well as increase the price subscriptions?
Oh yeah I did hear about it.
Will you pay?
Err.. no.
Because I don’t watch Netflix that much.
I used to watch it a lot.
But now a days I feel like I watch every once in a while.
Like some days I don’t even watch.
Okay, so we have our next interviewee here.
A very beloved colleague of mine.
Hi Jaymee.
What do you think about the Netflix shows that you have now?
I guess that’s what she thinks about the contents now.
Thanks Jaymee <3
Hello! We have a very special guest.
I haven’t seen him in the office for a very long time.
Mr Bolin Chen!
Eh hi.
Hi. Do you watch Netflix?
In the past yes.
When I can Netflix and chill.
Now cannot Netflix and chill anymore.
So I just chill lor.
That was not an answer I was expecting.
Do you have any recommendations on Netflix?
Love Death and Robots.
Love Robot and Death (… lol)
Is it? Love Death and Robots. *
So recently they are coming out with season 3.
I feel that it has very good story, very good CGI and it’s only 15 minutes.
Very fast to watch and you know, don’t need to spend too much time.
And also, Mr Bolin Chen you a bit buey paiseh. (not embarrassed)
- I help you hold the mic for very long already. - Oh yeah yeah XD.
Have you heard oh them saying they want to increase price,
include advertisements and also curb the password sharing?
Have you heard?
I do.
Technically speaking I’m quite happy.
But if you’re going to put in advertisements then I pay money for what?
But you will still subscribe?
Actually I’m thinking of unsubscribing because recently I don’t watch much.
Why?
And the Netflix shares keep drop.
Okay Mandon.
- Ni hao (hello) - Do you watch Netflix?
I watch Netflix shows. I don't watch Netflix.
Trick question.
What is your last watched on Netflix?
I watch the Spy x Family.
You are the third person to say this today.
Why?
Is it really that good?
It’s funny.
Oh it’s funny.
- It’s a funny anime? - The baby very cute.
Yeah yeah.
I like Ronny Chieng.
He’s got two comedy specials.
You can go and watch it.
I also like Daniel Sloss.
His comedy specials very dark one.
Oh okay, just like you la?
The last guy is called Jimmy Carr.
All comedy specials?
All comedy specials.
You don’t watch dramas?
Rarely.
Very rarely.
I cannot sit down 20, 30 episodes.
Have you heard of them saying that they want to increase price
as well as add advertisements?
I’ve heard.
Then they don’t want to let people share some more.
Yes. What do you think about that?
I think leech 1 going to be leech 0 soon.
I don’t need use already like that.
Hello!
- Hello. - Miss Brenda.
Why you sit so near to me?
Because I want to be close to you Amandys <3
Ew.
Do you watch Netflix?
Yes. All the time.
I watch it when I am eating,
- before I sleep. - Shitting.
Shitting maybe not so much. Not that intense
My Liberation Notes.
My Liberation Noted is my last watched.
I’m actually still watching it and I enjoy it very much because right
I don’t know if it’s just me but I’ve come to the age where those
normal rom-coms don’t really satisfy me anymore.
And then I like that this show is very real.
Okay my top one is a recommendation by my friend.
It’s called Behind Her Eyes.
Oh my god.
You need to watch it.
I feel like it’s very under rated.
It’s this show, Behind..
Behind Her Eyes.
So it’s very thriller, a bit of sci-fi elements.
And it’s just very mysterious.
You have to watch it.
The ending, the last episode I was like
what the heck!
Black mirror is it?
- It’s a very black mirror vibes. - Oh.
- But even more twisted. - Oh.
Ted Bundy.
- Oh Ted Bundy. - The Ted Bundy Tapes.
Is it the..
- Oh I thought is the hot one where Zac Efron played. - No, not Zac Efron.
I really like watching true crime documentaries on Netflix because
the producers always somehow get exclusive access to the tapes.
This is the only documentary that I’ve watched so far
that really sends chills down my spine.
The way Ted Bundy talks is so creepy.
He looks so normal right but he’s actually a bit mental.
The Victim’s Game.
- You got watch? - No.
Oh my god.
The actors inside are the known actors.
And their acting is damn good.
So it’s about murder.
And then there is a twist also.
You have to watch yourself.
If I need to recommend only one right,
watch Behind Her Eyes.
It’s worth it.
Okay okay.
Really!
Okay.
You’ll be mind blown.
Maybe later tonight I’ll go back and watch.
And I’ll tell you whether I'm mind blown or not.
Okay oh my god I’m very scared because you are a critic.
I am.
- Netflix says they are going to raise prices - How much?
And include advertisments.
Huh?
Let’s say you have to pay more in order to not have advertisements.
Would you?
5 dollar more.
I think I will.
You will?
I will very unwillingly pay.
I am too reliant on Netflix
Like I would say my reliance is unhealthy
So you watch during work time also?
Mm.. not really..
My supervisor is there.
[Sew] Okay what about yours?
[Sew] You are the queen of critics for movies and dramas.
A bit stress when people say that.
My recently watched one,
I finished it just last night at 4am.
That’s why my eyes look like that.
The Sound Of Magic.
I’m not sure what to think about this show.
From episode 1 to 5, it was an enjoyable watch for me.
Just that the ending might not be everybody's cup of tea.
That’s all I can say.
[Sew] What is your top 3 recommendations?
I’m not going to talk about k-drama since I already did that last time.
I think other than the cult favorites like Stranger Things
which I love,
I like You.
It’s from the POV (point of view) of a murderer essentially.
My next one is Alice in Borderland.
I am waiting.
Where is the next season?
Where is it?
Now!
Other than that, I think for a film that I’ve watched
quite recently was Man in Love.
I cry until my rice become porridge.
I cry first time not enough, I cry again.
My tears dry up already I cry again.
Dry already, I cry again.
My mother come into the room she’s like why are you crying so much?
Are you crazy?
Yeah, and that’s about it.
Miss Charmaine Sew.
Please tell us what are your recommendations!
- In no order, - Okay.
- Alice in Borderland. I also love it. - [Amanda] Yesss! I love.
I prefer it more than squid game.
Stranger Things.
- Which is what I believe many people would say as well. - [Amanda] Yes.
One more..
Oh my god!
Bling Empire.
[Amanda] I think you can be good friends with Fauzi.
I love it!
[Amanda] Okay, thank you very much.
