Opposite Sex
(2000)

Loved every minute of it
I discovered it 20 years after it first aired and I was amazed!

2000th - you were not so bad after all! Great cast, interesting story-line, funny jokes (not dorky-funny, actually funny). Cool male protagonist (Milo Ventimiglia as Jed) who showed positive, strong and charming example of masculinity. What a chance to find on TV at early 2000 a teenage guy who doesn't afraid to show his vulnerability, who isn't obsessed with sex and totally supportive towards girls?!

Tell me why it was canceled, again? 8 episodes limit is the only thing I didn't like about this show. To my opinion, "Opposite sex" is better then many of the teenage series that we have today.

So, Netflix, if you thinking what needs to be revived next, just give it a shot. With a good plot and actors it will be in the top of your ratings.

Shelter
(2007)

Simple and sensier
A very moving film about life and love. Probably one of the best I've seen in this genre. It proves that a movie does not need huge budget, great special effects and famous actors to keep our attention. It just has to be relatable, honest and clear. All of these qualities you can find in "Shelter".

Today I enjoyed re-watching this film second time and I am sure there's gonna be more.

American Vandal
(2017)

I can't believe that I like it
I watched this series because of my friend's recommendation.

And at first I thought that American Vandal is a typical moqumentary with all the features for this genre (toilet humor, dick jokes, accent on some characters' stupidity and absurdity of the whole story-line). But couple minutes later I was gladly surprised that this show isn't so typical after all.

Plot is very well written, story is not only fun to watch, but somehow easy to relate to. And despite the fact that this series portraits teenage life, American Vandal will be interesting and to much older auditory.

So if you are bold enough and ready to redefine "justice" in the digital age this show may be perfect for you.
