a good way to call those nights... "Netflix and ill".

not getting it.

when you're so ill that the only thing you can do is watch Netflix...

ah. The lack of Netflix would contribute to not understanding that.

Perhaps you have some equivalent?

had heard of "Netflix and chill" which apparently is like "going out for coffee." Or maybe "coming in for coffee."

the video/DVD of the Thunderbirds TV series would be a go-to choice of mine.

That sounds very similar. Not seen that in some time, and never watched enough to really know it.
