As this season of 10/10 Would Recommend draws to a close, we thought it would be churlish not to at least give a cursory nod to some of the smaller, unknown shows coming to Netflix in the last half of 2021. You know, give these shows as much of a chance of finding an audience as possible. So bear with us while we force ourselves to take a look at *checks notes* Stranger Things 4, Sex Ed 3, Money Heist 5, The Witcher 2 and a whole host of commercially risky ventures.
Joining Tolly and Gena this week is the brilliant Phil Wang, who's own special "Philly Philly Wang Wang" arrives on Netflix on 10th August 2021.
There's so many shows mentioned, we're going to get ~RSI typing them pout, but OK THEN IF YOU INSIST.

You've seen the trailer, right? It. Blew. Up. A beaver talking to a devil, talking to a panda over dinner - wait, what?
'Sexy Beasts' is the most nuts dating show you've ever seen in your lives. Think 'Love is Blind' meets 'The Masked Singer' and you're still only about halfway there.
In order to try and make sense of this prosthetics maker's dream, Tolly and Gena spoke to the exuberant Simon Welton - the Executive Producer and creator of the show - a man with one of the greatest pedigrees in entertaining television we've ever met. What this guy doesn't know about good telly, frankly can go jump.

Originality is a rare beast nowadays, which is why we're super proud of the Fear Street trilogy, or should we say thrill-ogy!
Three incredible full-length feature horror films released weekly? Crazy right? Not only that but it has interweaved characters, plot-lines and oh... starts in 1994 and ends in 1666 and is written by a master of his craft - Goosebumps creator RL Stine.
He dropped by to speak to the ladies , who are so pathetic when it comes to horror, we got Alison Peirse, and actual academic expert in horror films to come and calm them down.
Then, to see how much they've been paying attention, Producer Jamie put them through their paces with a special quiz. Horror? Some of Tolly's answers will give you the heebeegeebies!

You didn't think we could cram S2 of 'Too Hot to Handle' into one episode did you? Hell no - and seeing as Tolly and Gena spent so much of last week DROOLING over poor Marvin, it only seemed fitting that we throw him to the 10/10 lions with only his love(?) Melinda for protection.
You want the tea spilt on THTH? Of course you do. You want unfiltered opinion on the reality conveyor belt? Why wouldn't you? Here are four people getting well and truly STUCK IN.

Sometimes you just have to call the experts in, right? There are millions of things Tolly and Gena are experts in, but being a reality TV star is not one of them (yet). So who better to get on the pod to talk about the INSANE new second season of 'Too Hot To Handle', than Chloe Veitch - 'The Circle' Alumni and star of THTH S1?

Sweet Tooth is one of the most charming series you'll watch this year. Telling the story of Gus, a hybrid boy/deer (bear with, yeah?) and his search for his mother in the midst of a catastrophic pandemic.
Exec produced by Sue Downey and her completely-unknown-unlikely-to-ever-amount-to-anything husband Robert Downey Jr, it has captured the hearts of millions - hitting the number one slot worldwide.
Adeel Akhtar stars as Dr. Aditya Singh, but you will almost certainly already know him from one of the many shows lucky enough to have him, such as Killing Eve, Utopia, The Big Sick, Four Lions, The Night Manager and Back to Life. He is ubiquitous, brilliant and one of the nicest people we've ever had on the show.
Adeel is speaking from a hotel room in London - whilst Tolly and Gena managed to find a room together the other side of town (albeit one with a turbine-sized air-con blowing right next to them). The newly founded trio of BFFs also recommended these titles, available to watch now:

Description
If you aren't on board the 'Master of None' train, then get a damned travelcard ASAP. S3 is a powerhouse - a masterclass in direction, screenplay and performance.
One of the people largely responsible for this is Naomi Ackie - who plays Alicia, Denise's wife. Their journey through the complicated and difficult IVF maze is both heartbreaking and spellbinding. She joins Tolly and Gena to talk all about it - and oh my goodness what a pleasure it was.

Nailbomber: Manhunt is an incredibly moving , shocking and powerful documentary about the 13 days that sent London into panic. Bombs in Brixton, Brick Lane and Soho devastated minority communites - before they found strength, fought back and helped police capture David Copeland, the man responsible for the atrocities.
Using first-person accounts, police interview footage and incredible archive, it serves as an important bookmark in British history - one that, as Tolly and Gens discuss, has been overlooked.
Joining them in this episode are Daniel Vernon, the director of Nailbomber: Manhunt and Mike Franklin - one of the people intrinsic to the capture of the bomber.
We hope you enjoy this fascinating episode.

'Army of the Dead' is the huge, bombastic Zombie Heist thriller from Hollywood legend Zack Snyder. Some people throw the kitchen sink at their movies, but here, Zack has made Michael Bay look like Chloe Zao. Starring Dave Bautista, it is dripping in technicolour swagger, blood, guts and a freakin' zombie tiger.
It tales a special someone to realise the epic vision of Snyder - and here, Justin Raleigh is that man. The Emmy winning sfx supremo - who's worked on Aquaman, Westworld and Suicide Squad tells Tolly and Gena just what went into making all those zombies...

There was a time when anything with subtitles was considered far too intellectual and posh for mainstream consumption - but thanks in part to the meteoric rise in the fantastic Scandi-Noir genre, we now think nothing of settling down and applying a bit more concentration.
This is rewarded with some incredible viewing. Imagine a world without 'The Platform', 'Money Heist', 'Lupin' and now... 'Oxygen'.
Alexandre Aja is known for bringing us some of the most watchable horror of the past few decades, but thanks to lockdown, has had the opportunity to deliver this socially-distant claustrophobic Sci-Fi thriller starring Melanie Laurent.

Mark Millar is a legend in the Comic Book world, having written stories that morphed into Hollywood blockbusters such as Civil War and Logan. He is the president of Millarworld, and is responsible for iconic characters such as Kick-Ass and Kingsmen. His first series for Netflix is the mind-blowing Jupiter's Legacy, which stars Josh Duhamel and Ben Daniels in the story of the Union - a group of superheroes whose Utopian view of the world is being sorely tested. It was an absolute honour to get him on the show - and what a great chat we had!

Surprise!
Just when you thought we'd left for the year, we sneak back with an exclusive chat with the brains behind 'Death to 2020' - the surprise mockumentary created by the brains behind 'Black Mirror' - Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones.
Starring Samuel L. Jackson, Hugh Grant, Lisa Kudrow, Joe Keery, Leslie Jones, Kumail Najiani and Diane Morgan, 'Death to 2020' is sure to give this year the send off it deserves. Well, we assume it will anyway, as this was SUCH a surprise, we haven't even seen it yet!
Never mind though - Tolly and Gena still managed to squeeze some juicy intel out for your pleasure. So, whilst you're waiting for 27th December to arrive - think of this as the little present mum allowed you to open early, for being really, really good.
Thanks so much to Charlie and Annabel for their time.
See you in 2021!
For our final episode of 2020, we'd like to take you to Shondaland if we may?
Bridgerton is the latest masterpiece to come from Shondaland - Shonda Rhimes' production company. Set in high society London and based on Julia Quinn's best-selling novels, the series arrives on Netflix UK this Christmas Day.
G&T got the opportunity to talk to one of it's stars, Nicola Coughlan, about the show, what it's like to become part of Rhimes family and (of course) a few words on some other show she was in called "Derry Girls" (we stan). She is by far one of the happiest and loveliest people we've ever met!

You know the phrase "Good things happen to good people"? Well, in our penultimate episode before the Christmas break, Gena and Tolly caught up with the person that phrase was invented for - Quinta Brunson.
Quinta was their colleague from 'Ye Olde Buzzfeed Days' who has gone on to do amazing things with HBO and - the reason for our episode - the incredible 'Big Mouth', which is back for it's fourth season. Safe to say the three were NOT short of conversation!

We guarantee there's not a single person reading this that won't have had their lives improved by today's guest. Chris Columbus' filmography reads like a list of childhood memories - From writing 'The Goonies' and 'Gremlins', discovering and directing Macaulay Culkin in the Home Alone movies and then enchanting a whole new generation with the first three Harry Potter movies - it's pretty safe to say, he's a flipping Christmas filmmaking genius. So to celebrate his latest - 'The Christmas Chronicles 2' arriving on Netflix, get those headphones on and prepare for an unexpectedly emotional cinematic masterclass.

Criminal is one of the most gripping crime dramas ever made. It's unique format really nails the intensity of the situation and, as we already know the police have got their criminal, we're thrown deep into the detail of how the cops get them behind bars.
Aside from the intensity of the script, it's perfomances are simply stunning. Whether it's the conveyor belt of stars such as Kit Harrington and Sharon Horgan playing the criminals, the duty solicitors trying to protect them - or the familiar faces of the police - everyone on set brings their absolute A game.
Katherine Kelly plays DI Natalie Hobbs, and here she discusses what a fantastic experience both watching AND making the show is.
The ever wonderful Robert Sheehan caught up with Netflix's Jamie East to talk all things Klaus.
As is the way with Robert, the conversation takes many weird and wonderful turns - leading us through the wonderful world of Doris Stokes and Crocodile Dundee 2.

Whether it's eligibility for awards, or the creative freedom (and generous budgets) given to makers, films on Netflix have been a hot topic of conversation for the last few years. Whether it's epics such as 'Da 5 Bloods', 'The Irishman' or 'Roma' - action blockbusters like 'Extraction' or '6 Underground' - or even classics like 'The Lord of the Rings' - film plays a huge part in the Netflix experience.

Thanks to podcasts like Serial and shows such as Don't F*** with Cats, we all consider ourselves proper armchair Detectives.
The True Crime drama has EXPLODED over recent years - so it would be churlish for Ditty not to examine the evidence and form a perimeter around this podcast episode. Our guests not only know all about catching killers, but also about how to go about making the shows you are loving.
Shows discussed in this episode:
Dark, a German language series about to embark on its third and final season, takes everything you think you know about the rules of the time-travel genre, tears them into shreds and shoves them right up your flux capacitor.
It is a riveting thriller which, like all great shows, begins as something relatively linear (a missing child case) and expands into an examination of something incredibly profound. ‘The Wire’ became an ode to fate, ‘The Sopranos’ chose life and death - and ‘Dark’ ponders what the fundamentals of time means to humanity - suggesting this part of life is our real God.
It's creators Baran Bo Odar and Jantje Friese talk about these principals, the cast, the insane planning behind such a complex show and the big question... Dubbing or Subtitles!

If you haven't seen Cheer yet, you are in for an absolute treat. This 6 part documentary series focuses on the personalities and journeys of a group of Cheerleaders in the small town of Corsicana , Texas. On the face of it, this is a show about acrobatics, tumbling and fierce competition - but scratch below the surface and it's like no show you've seen before. It is a compelling and gripping look at empathy, acceptance, determination and family in all it's guises.
How does that narrative translate over here in the UK? Well, Dotty found out when we invited London's finest Cheerleading troupe, Ultimate Cheer, in to discuss what they love about the show - and how closely it resembles their own experiences.
