G.B.F, Gay Best Friend | MOVIE

Hello!

"a feel-good, humorous film that was super fun to watch!"

If you've seen this post, you'd know I'm a bit of a Netflix fan. Hey, I'm a LOT OF A Netflix fan. Not only because of the incredible quality, but also because of how easy it is to access on the telly.

I have a few shows that I like to keep up with on there, i.e. PLL, but then there are times when I fancy a movie. They don't have the newest of films, and some of which I've never heard of, but it's nice to click on a title I wouldn't have if it didn't exist on Netflix. This was one of them.
G.B.F was the title and I had no idea what it was about. Sure, there was a little description, but who really reads them anyway (okay, I do but this was not one of those times!)? Well, "why click it then?" you ask, because Allison from PLL is in it and I thought I'd give it a shot.

I didn't know G.B.F stood for Gay Best Friend, and the movie was about the first guy in a high school in America to come out. It wasn't a serious documentary or anything, it was a feel-good, humorous film that was super fun to watch!

The protagonist is gay and accidentally came out. He wasn't ready for the entire school to know, as he was one of those people that like to stay on the DL, but it all happened so fast and before he knew it, he was one of 'the populars'.

It's a typical high school drama, American chick flick kinda film and I really enjoyed it. In the world we live in where homosexuals are able to finally feel comfortable, which they should, it's nice to see it from a different perspective. Don't get me wrong, I don't really have much to say in this whole debate, and I wasn't planning to watch an entire film about it, but I do agree that every one deserves to be whoever they want to be, and it shouldn't be much more complicated than that. I don't even know why it is - just let people be.

Anyway, it's a movie that's super light-hearted, feel good and will make you laugh - what more could one ask for? Sure it may not be the best movie of all time, but if you're looking for a simple movie that's readily available on Netflix (and you're a PLL fan), give this a shot!

Tell me, what do you look for in a movie? 

New TV Show, Summer Inspiration and a Quote | FRIDAY FAVES

Hello!

"The story line totally hits home in terms of my 'dreamer' self,"

Usually on a Friday you may see a BerryWeekly, and rarely a 'Friday Faves'. Why the change? Well, a BerryWeekly is usually written when the week has been somewhat interesting. With exams just around the corner, my week has been mostly sitting around, so not much to see there, really! However, LaurenConrad.com does the most beautiful Friday Faves posts, so I thought I'd share mine!

Favourite Summer Inspiration:

Looking at this makes me realise that summer is coming! As soon as exams are over, it'll be all about beautiful summer nights and fun-filled days!

Favourite TV Show:

A new show on my list - Once Upon a Time is one I've thought again and again about beginning to watch, but only now have I started - and I'm loving it! The story line totally hits home in terms of my 'dreamer' self, and better yet, it's available on Netflix! 

Favourite Quote:

A total blogger thing to say, hey? ^

So, that's my favourites for the week! What has been your favourite? Oh, and do you watch Once upon a time? :)

The Netflix Tag

Hello!

The Netflix Tag has been floating around and if you know me, you know I love a bit of good ol' Telly!
So, seeing the Netflix Tag, how could I not. hey? How. Could. I. Not.?
Right, so lets dive in!

1. What are your favourite series' to watch on Netflix ?

Sherlock is an incredible series. It's full with intelligent details, and I can't believe I started the series as late as I did! If you haven't watched Sherlock, you're missing out! Run to your Netflix account and watch all 6 episodes currently on there! You can thank me later! ;)

2. What are you currently watching on Netflix ?
At the moment, I'm up to date with Pretty Little Liars. Actually, on Monday we had a little chat on here on all things PLL. Here's the link, incase you missed it! 

3. If you could have any series, old or new put on Netflix, what would it be ?
Suits. Although it is currently on there, I would love up-to-date episodes on Netflix, like they've recently done to PLL. I love Suits, definitely my favourite show (it's up there with Sherlock!). 

4. What is your one peeve about Netflix ?
Just the fact that Suits episodes are not up to date. Also, the third series of Sherlock is not on there either. I did catch the first two episodes of the third series on BBC iPlayer, but by the time I got around to the final one, it was no longer available! I was gutted. 

5. What are your essentials for a perfect night in with Netflix ?
A cosy blanket, my go-to furry pink roses blanket is my favourite. I was catching up with the latest PLL episode on Netflix today and the blanket was in the wash - definitely not the same experience. Good, nonetheless! 

6. Recommend one series or film for someone else.
I have yet to watch a film on Netflix, there aren't any that catch my eye but in terms of series, Sherlock! (These questions are all interlinking, aren't they?)

7. Name a series on Netflix you keep meaning to watch but haven't yet.
Hmm... none off the top of my head. I think I keep up with the ones I am a die-hard fan of, and happy with my selected few. (I say few, but there are quite a lot! *shh*)

8. Did you discover anything awesome because of Netflix ?

Homeland was a series I found only due to Netflix. Although, I have watched every single one on there, so there's none left to watch. To be honest, I'm just super happy Suits is back so Homeland is not missed!

Is there any show you cannot recommend enough on Netflix? Would love suggestions! 

& I Tag YOU to do it too! 

Pretty Little Liars: Catchup

Hello!

Andrew (I think his name was)...is pretty pleasing to the eye *insert emoji with heart eyes here*.

If you've read this post and this post, you'd know there's a PLL fan in the house... well, on the screen... well, me! So if you've been up-to-date with it, you'll know there was a sharp turn ever since Alli returned (SPOILER ALERT!... there'll be a lot of spoilers, so if you're not up to date and don't want to know, this isn't the post for you.. sorry!).

So, Mona died which was a complete shocker! I was actually beginning to like her and thought they were getting somewhat close to finding out who A is.. well, not anymore. Oh, and that whole laptop thing with Hanna and Caleb is super creepy. Mona's body in that bin is just awful and the blood drop near it could have been anyones!

Speaking of blood drops, how could Mike do that to his sister and her friends? In case you missed it, he took the blood samples of the girls and gave it to one of A's people! They could be in so much trouble now! Speaking of that episode, Andrew (I think his name was), who is Arias new tutor is pretty pleasing to the eye *insert emoji with heart eyes here*.

Toby and Spencer and no longer, or are they? Is it going to be Jonny and Spencer now? I think Jonny is cute but not exactly the best influence on Spencer. Mummy Hastings would definitely not be happy!

Oh, and they say PLL has been secured for 2 more seasons, does that mean we won't find out who A is in a very long time? Gosh, I want to know! 

Tell me, what are your thoughts on the show so far? Agree/disagree with me?
Any theories on who A is?

It's Back.. and it's Better than Ever.

Hello!

"full of unexpected actions and almost leaves you on your toes"

Guess the title reveals it all... and the image above just explains all my thoughts - but to confirm it anyway: Revenge is back in the all new Season 4. Oh, and sneak peak, there's a VERY HOT police officer introduced in the first episode (google Brian Hallisay - you're welcome).

This season has been very good so far, it is full of unexpected actions and almost leaves you on your toes throughout the whole episode.

So, as I'm worried about giving too much away, I'm just going to leave you with that. Basically, season 4 has begun, and you need to check it out!

Have you been watching it?

New TV Series: The 100

Hello!

TGIF! Another Friday means another start to the weekend. Whether you're going out tonight or staying at home, at some point you may find the time to want to... I don't know, start watching a new TV series? Well if you do, here's why you may want to watch The 100:

"will there never be life on Earth for the humans"

I hadn't heard of 'The 100' by word of mouth, unlike Game of Thrones and The Vampire Diaries, but stumbled across it after searching on google for the perfect new show to watch. If you've been reading BBXO for a while, you'd know that Suits in an obsession - there's evidence of that here, oh and here. #sorryimnotsorry 

Reading those you'd know that I was looking for a new show for a while and nothing stood out as much as this one.

"those 100 are not the only ones on Earth - and the 100 are not wanted there.. "

The 100 is about people living in a spaceship thing (in space, obviously) as there was a nuclear explosion on Earth 97 years (3 generations of people) ago. They had finally decided to let 100 kids from prison down onto earth to see if it is safe for the rest of the population to return too. Unfortunately, some of these kids are rebellious and risk the fact that everyone on the spaceship, including their family and future generations, may die due to lack of rescources to live. 

However, they find that those 100 are not the only ones on Earth - and the 100 are not wanted there.. Will the 100 prove it's safe to be on earth, to save their waiting families on the ship, or will there never be life on Earth for the humans?

If you like the action behind the likes of Hunger Games and Divergent, you will like The 100!

Have you heard of 'The 100' and what do you think of the storyline?
