Streaming Picks: March 2022

FILMS
Top Picks
Drive My Car – HBO Max 3/2
West Side Story (2021) – Disney+ and HBO Max 3/2
Would you look at that? Two of the year’s best movies, according to me and the Academy. While a three-hour Japanese movie might be outside your comfort zone, and a perfectly solid version of West Side Story already exists, both are extraordinary efforts from master filmmakers. You won’t be disappointed.

After his co-star Bob Einstein got a loving tribute last month, Larry David gets his turn in this two-part documentary.

Winter Paralympics – Peacock starting 3/4
Jeff Foxworthy: The Good Old Days – Netflix 3/22

OLD SHOWS
Top Pick
Whose Line Is It Anyway? (Complete ABC Series) – HBO Max 3/1
Believe it or not, the CW revival has been on the air longer than the first American incarnation was. This Drew Carey-hosted version ran for 219 episodes, with the last two seasons aired sporadically on ABC Family. While the new host (Aisha Tyler) is certainly an improvement over Drew – who just wasn’t suited to improv comedy – the laughs come more frequently, and include excellent special guests like the late Robin Williams and Richard Simmons.

Other Recommendations
Casual (Complete Series) – Netflix 3/31
