Stan: What's New For September 24 - 30, 2019

Poster for Broad City: Season 5
Sean Fang Mon, 30/09/2019 - 17:22

The end of September brings warmer weather (finally), but also quite a bit of quality content to Stan. Let's take a look then ...

Television:

Those looking for a new series to binge will want to try New Amsterdam, for which the complete season 1 has just been uploaded. This one has actually been shown on free-to-air TV before, but in case you missed it and you're looking for a good hospital drama series, then take a look.

There's also a new season (season 5) of the acclaimed comedy series Broad City, which is also the last season.

And those interested in finding out exactly what's happening with U.S. politics at the moment, all that Ukraine and impeachment and whistleblower stuff, then head on to the The Circus which had its mid-season premiere just in time for all the latest Trump shenanigans.

Movies, Documentaries:

Some great movies have just been added, including a couple that you've no doubt watched before, but you'll probably want to watch again.

There's a mini '80s theme happening with the release of Pretty In Pink, Fatal Attraction, and Short Circuit. Three very different movies, but three types of movies that were very popular in the '80s - John Hughes movies, cautionary tales and sci-fi fun.

A movie that should be on everyone's must-see list is Forrest Gump, but one that's on a lot of people's "haven't seen" list is The Forgotten. I love how the movie changes genres in the middle, and while I don't think it actually works all that well (and definitely should not be a style frequently copied), it's interesting nevertheless.

And it's always interesting to watch a pre-McConaissance movie, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days in this week's case, and just wonder are we really watching the same actor?
