I’ve been enjoying this one a lot. Thanks for the tip. It is the kind of detective story that I like, as there are enough clues that if you are paying attention, you can solve the case with the inspector. And, the banter with ‘the french’ is really funny

We are binge watching Dexter right now. Rather entertaining. It is our families last name and we had never seen a single episode. It was time.

Making a murderer, Ozark, Mindhunter, Narcos and a serie with strange people: Fear thy neighbor and I just start looking at Manhunt Unabomber.

Russel Peters comedy shows are awesome, he is my new favorite comedian.

I'm starting season 2 of Narcos right now and WOW. Certainly clear why so many have suggested watching this show.

I love his accents and he can get away with non-PC murder! He's Indian but half his audience are Chinese/oriental.

Just finished The Blacklist (loved it), started White Collar. This one is entertaining and more family friendly for those concerned about that type of stuff.

I started on the Crown last night, got 3 episodes in. Yes, being Canadian gives me a little more historical interest, but WOW that is a very very well done show. I would think with no background at all on the British monarchy, it would still be interesting if you are at all into historical drama.

John Lithgow is incredible as Churchill. Never woulda thought...

The guy playing young Phillip is sort of stiff at times, but maybe that's part of the 'stuffy old royals' thing :)

Oh, and as others have said, Ozark. I happened across it right as it was released, without reading beforehand about it, and ended up doing the entire series on a weekend. Excellent.

If you like classic westerns (with a twist), you'll enjoy Godless.

A very interesting series and great acting.

We were sad when we watched the last episode of the current season. The new one should be out soon. At first I did not care for the 2nd detective, but he really grows into the role.

We are watching season 2 now.

What I want to know is, was the queen really so weak in the 50's? It is like she can't fire anyone, and she rubberstamps every bad idea from her staff. And she has no good advisor to let her know what the cabinet is up to. The 1st Queen Elizabeth had her own intel officer and was really tough. You would think this queen would have studied her predecessors.

Wow, Unabomber drama was really good. I watched all episodes these last two nights.

Sadly, it was a true story, I was a grad student 90 through 93 at The University of Texas, and I remember profs being on edge at the time, with packages and such

Godless is FANTASTIC. Also really enjoy Punisher, Stranger Things, Peaky Blinders, Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Narcos and Longmire, which is also fantastic.

Also, not on Netflix, but just watched Brawl in Cell Block 99. Will never see Vince Vaughn as simply a comedic actor again.

Agree, a good series. Also Dr Foster for a strong female lead show.

Not so much weak, but a woman in the patriarchal 50s and doing a job she was not born or trained for, her abdicating uncle David was supposed to be the heir. At least she did keep her Royal Name of Windsor in those early days which really emasculated Philip who opined he was the only man in England who could not pass his name on to his own children.
