If You Have to Watch 1 Netflix Show in April 2025, Stream This 1

This irreverent, raunchy and poignant historical comedy is an underrated Netflix gem and worth watching in April

The upstairs/downstairs stories of the villa staff showcase the show’s smart social satire as cook Stratilia ( Leila Farzad) and Sirisco chafe at the increasingly absurd demands of the nobles. Other unexpected pairings are the sister-like relationship between self-absorbed noble girl Filomena ( Jessica Plummer) and her long-suffering handmaiden Liscisca ( Tanya Reynolds), as well as charlatan doctor Dioneo ( Amar Chadha-Patel), who seduces nearly every woman in the cast. Amar Chadha-Patel as Dioneo, Tanya Reynolds as Licisca, Tony Hale as Sirisco, Leila Farzad as Stratillia and Karan Gill as Panfilo in ‘The Decameron.’Netflix The Decameron doesn’t wrap up all its storylines with a neat bow.
