I’m a little late, but I’m here to share my November Favorites. Feel free to share your own monthly favorites in the comments. I’d love to know what you are enjoying lately!
November 2019 Favorites: Prodigal Son, Knives Out, and more! #ontheblog Share on XMonthly Favorites: November 2019
Movie: Knives Out
My family usually sees a movie on Thanksgiving day and this year, we went and saw Knives Out. It’s jammed pack with stars from Chris Evans to Jamie Lee Curtis and more. This is such an awesome movie. The acting was fantastic, there are so many twists and turns, and it keeps you glued to the screen the entire time. I highly recommend seeing it in theaters if you can!
Song: “Fallout” by Marianas Trench
I’ve liked various songs by Marianas Trench through the years, but I’ve been listening to them a lot more lately and I’m such a fan of their song “Fallout.” If you don’t know Marianas Trench, they are a pop punk band from Canada.
Don’t tell me to fight, to fight for you
After this long I shouldn’t have to
I know you’re fine, but what do I do?

TV Show: Prodigal Son
This could have been an October favorite too, but this new show is just SO.GOOD. The Fall finale just aired last week, so you have some time to get caught up if you haven’t watched this one yet. Basically, it’s about a guy named Malcolm whose father is one of the United States’s most notorious serial killers. Malcolm used to be an FBI Profiler, and now he works with the NYPD. Malcolm’s father is played fantastically by Michael Sheen. Watching Sheen, I have no trouble believing he’s a psychopathic serial killer. He’s not in every episode, but when he is, he’s fantastic. Honestly though, all the actors are amazing and I cannot wait to see what happens when the show comes back on air. I like to call this a grown up version of I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga.
Performance: “Graveyard” by Halsey at the American Music Awards
I love the song “Graveyard” by Halsey, and I especially love watching her performances on award shows. They’re just so different and captivating. The American Music Awards had her performing “Graveyard” and it was really well done. Did anyone else catch it? You can watch it here if not!!

Knives out is showing here at the moment – I didn’t realise Jamie Lee Curtis was in it.
Halsey’s performance was amazing. I also really enjoyed Taylor Swift’s performance.
I never did watch the awards, but then I normally don’t anymore. I just don’t have time for them. But I’m glad there were some great performances!
I was going to watch Prodigal Son till I saw that one of my least liked actresses is in it…
I have Prodigal Son on my Watch List & need to dig in.. maybe I’ll do it over the holidays
Wow that’s a really great Halsey performance. I really love the use of paint and dance and can’t believe she was able to sing through that!! Also I haven’t yet seen knives out but I really really want to and I love that it’s a tradition with your family to see a movie on Thanksgiving day. Hope all is well and that you had a nice weekend, Lauren!
I’ve been seeing the poster for Knives Out everywhere and have been curious about it. I’m glad to hear it’s good, it sounds like the type of movie my husband and I would enjoy! I enjoy Halsey too and that performance is awesome.
Oooo yes, I love Graveyard! I haven’t seen Halsey’s performance at the AMAs yet, as my mind has been preoccupied with hunting down performances from this year’s MAMAs.
I really want to see Knives Out!
YASSS! I love “Fallout”! I haven’t seen Halsey’s performance. Watching that now!
I saw the promo for prodigal son and it did look really good! I missed the start of the season though. I think I need to take some time and get caught up with it!
Everyone loves Knives Out! I am hoping to see it this weekend. I like that song too! Quite the video!
oh wow I have been so disconnect from the world since NaNoWriMo started!!! I didn’t know about any of this. That’s why I love your blog. It brings me back to reality 🙂
I’ve heard such mixed reviews of Knives out. We only made it to the movies once in November and that was with my boys to see Playing with Fire.
There was a performance with Halsey & Lady Antebellum from the CMAs or AMAs, I don’t even remember. But it was AMAZING.
I’ve seen everyone on Twitter talking about how great Knives Out is, it’s been so, so long since I’ve been to the movies, it would be nice to have a date night to relax before Christmas. At the moment I’ve been watching old reruns of the US version of The Office and forgotten how funny the series is.
I want to try to see Knives Out this weekend if we get a chance.

Ohh, Knives Out sounds pretty fantastic. We are planning to go to the theater again on Christmas Eve, not sure if it’ll be out still then!

My mom just asked me if I want to go see Knives Out so I’m glad to see it on your list of favorites. 🙂
I still need to see Knives Out. One of these days!
Ooo I’m happy to read your positive review of Prodigal Son! It sounded so interesting to me but I never tuned in.
omg, it’s so good!! I recommend it 100%!!!
Was wondering what Knives Out was like. I saw previews but was wondering what others thought. Definitely going to have to see it now!
I’ve heard really positive things all around, so I hope you enjoy it!
Yes!! Knives Out was so good. Prodigal Son is easily my favorite new show of the season as well!
Right? I can’t wait for PS to come back on!
