I always love when bloggers do monthly favorites post, so I figured I would do one for October! If you have your own, feel free to leave a link in the comments. I’d love to check it out.
October Favorites: a song, a TV show, and a movie - what's on your monthly favorites list? #ontheblog #octoberfavorites Click To TweetOctober Favorites
“Lose You To Love Me” by Selena Gomez
I’ve always been a fan of Selena Gomez, and I was so excited to hear her latest song. Obviously it’s about Justin Bieber, but it’s so good. It’s raw and emotional and the video is just as awesome. I love that while the world at large knows the origins behind the lyrics, it can also be related to a lot of other people and their circumstances. So good – listen to it now if you haven’t already!
Fleabag: Season 1 and 2
Oh my god, this show is amazing. You can find it on Amazon Prime if you still need to watch it. It’s a British TV show starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge (who just won tons of Emmy’s – deservedly!) and sadly, it’s just the two seasons. But they are amazing and I highly recommend it. I love the humor, but also the heart and how it touches on so many aspects of the “human condition” if you will. Phoebe is just amazing, as are her lovely co-stars. I particularly loved season 2 as it stars Andrew Scott (aka Moriarty from the BBC Sherlock). He’s an amazing actor, and there are so many heart-tugging moments between him and Phoebe’s character.
Tucker & Dale vs. Evil
Earlier in the month my sister and I had our annual Halloween Movie Night with friends. A friend recommended Tucker & Dale vs. Evil as our second film of the evening, and it was such a great choice. We watched it via Netflix, so I don’t know if it’s available anywhere else. It’s definitely gory, but in a mostly over-the-top way. It’s a bit of a hard movie to explain, but basically, it had everyone laughing out loud – many, many times. Not your typical horror movie fare, but worth it!
So tell me: are any of my monthly favorites things you’ve enjoyed too? Do you have your own October favorites?
I have not watched ANY of Fleabag yet! I know, I know…I must!
I need to watch fleabag!
WE watched Wanted on Netflix (all three seasons LOL!) and loved it. It was a lot of fun and I love that it took place in Australia!
I keep hearing lots about Fleabag but haven’t seen it yet.
At the moment I’m watching Grand Hotel (so good!), Veronica Mars and a South African drama which started last night called Trackers. Based on a book by South African Author Deon Meyer. Cannot wait to watch the rest of last nights episode this evening.
I heard good things about Fleabag but didn’t try it yet!
I love Selena Gomez! I have not heard her new song yet.
My favourite shows now are all British – truly. They just have a different air about them. Very entertaining and hilarious might I add! I haven’t heard about this one yet and it sounds good!
This is a fun idea! I am really enjoying Maroon 5’s new song Memories.
Hi Lauren, Selena Gomez has really matured and I adore her music. She is soooo beautiful as well. I’ll be checking out her new song.
I’ve heard so much about Fleabag!! I don’t have Amazon Prime though—I’m missing out 😛
I love the idea of a horror movie marathon! My Beau doesn’t watch horror movies so I’m usually on my own with those and I’m quite selective. Ha!! Nice to see what your favorites are for October.
I’ve been wanting to see a horror movie I haven’t watched yet so I’ll definitely be checking out Tucker & Dale vs. Evil.
Dang, these are good! I now have some really good shows to watch.Thank you for sharing. Going to Listen to the Selena song now 🙂
I seriously need to watch Fleabag soon! So many people have recommended it to me and I still haven’t watched it.
Fleabag is SO good! I haven’t finished the whole series yet but I’ve enjoyed what I’ve watched so far. I have to catch up on it!
Fleabag is highly recommended by a few of the people I’m friends with, so I need to check that one out.
I hope you’re having a great week!
I’ve heard so many good things about Fleabag. Usually when there’s take much hype I assume it’s on HBO or something. I didn’t know it was on Amazon Prime! I might have to check it out!
I had not heard of Fleabag but sounds like I probably would enjoy it. Thanks for the recommendation!
I’ve only watched the first season of Fleabag, but it was sooo good! I need to catch up on season 2 soon!
LOVED Fleabag!!!
Tucker & Dale was pretty funny.
I’m listening to the song now and it’s pretty.

I heard that Selena Gomez song today on the radio for the first time!
I just watched Fleabag (seasons 1 & 2) this past month as well, and loved it! She’s so incredibly talented. Amazing show!
I’ve heard so much about Fleabag I think it’s about time to give it a try. I have to admit, that Daniel Craig wanted PWB to do some rewrites on a bond script makes her and the show all more interesting.
I’ve heard of that Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, I need to check it out! I love favorites posts. Maybe some day I’ll have time to do more!
Oh my gosh, isn’t that Selena song just so catchy?!? I swear I’ve been humming it since I heard it! XD
I’ve heard so many good things about Fleabag! I definitely need to check it out!
I hope you’re having a good week! <3
I keep hearing about Fleabag, I need to watch that! I don’t even know what my favorites are for this month. I just finished a great book, The Dearly Beloved, so I guess that would be my favorite read this month!
I’ve heard so many great things about Fleabag. One of these days. 🙂
As usual, I am probably the last one to discover Selena Gomez’s song. Thank you for sharing. “I had to hate you to love me” – WOW. Bieber’s loss, baby. Have the video open in another tab. Beautiful song.
Isn’t it just beautiful?
Tucker and Dale versus Evil is so funny!
Ahhh I really like Selena Gomez’s new song as well, so beautiful and emotional, exactly my kind of song 😀
I LOVE Tucker & Dale vs. Evil!! 🙂
I haven’t watched or listened to these! This isn’t really a favourite but there is a music channel on YouTube that I love and they release a new playlist every month that I always look forward to. They’re called alexrainbirdmusic and I love their indie/folk playlists because they are so soft and they let me do blogging without getting in the way. I am actually listening to one now haha 🙂 My favourite movie of October was Rocketman and I have a post about it going live in about half an hour! It was your post on it that made me go and get it, actually 🙂
