The Life List

The Life List is currently streaming in Australia on Netflix, and in the US on Netflix, and it delivers exactly the kind of comedy that earns a loyal following. A tight runtime that never overstays its welcome. 614 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Sofia Carson's performance alone is worth the time investment. Start it on Netflix whenever you need something guaranteed to land.

Whatever else is competing for your attention this week, The Life List is worth clearing space for. The Life List does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. When her mother sends her on a quest to complete a teenage bucket list, a young woman uncovers family secrets, finds romance — and rediscovers herself. Sofia Carson and Kyle Allen lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was released in 2025. What keeps The Life List from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, The Life List is a strong candidate. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. Sofia Carson sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
