Netflix recs?

The Rip on Netflix is good, Watching Good Night and Good Luck the stage show right now, pale imitation of the film, which is one of my favourite movies.
 
A lot off what made it fun for me was warn off but I'm one of those people who can't stop watching a series I've invested a lot of time in.

The "kids" are grown up but are still playing characters that are kids. It's kind of off putting for me. The story is tired IMHO, I'm just here to see it finally end but I feel like this is one season too many. They should have wrapped it up last season.

That's my take.
There was so much time between seasons I lost all interest and Season 4 was already mid to me so I was fine just reading the cliff notes of what happened and never turning it on again.
 
Talked about it in another thread but I just finished watching The Vietnam War. It was amazing. Brutal, enlightening, entertaining, horrific, interesting, eye opening, educational, sorrowful, disgusting, funny (though rarely)........... So much info from so many perspectives.
But the last hour or so was my favorite part and it was simply beautiful. Vets going to the war memorial and finding some semblance of healing/closure. Learning to deal with their PTSD. Everyone learning how to forgive each other. Both countries recognizing the mistakes they made and trying to rebuild and move forward while never forgetting the lessons to be learned. American combat vets going back to vietnam years later and meeting and getting to know North vietnam/vietcong combat vets.
Best ending ever. Got my tears to come out.
Sadly my father never got the war behind him like some did (many were like my father and never left vietnam behind im sure). After watching this program I really wish I could talk to him about the war but there is just no way I can go there with him. Too much trauma and pain remains. Breaks my heart.
