I've just finished The Strain on NowTV (totally enjoyed this) and now am in a wilderness, with no good show to watch Sad

What can I get stuck into? Other favourites include The Walking Dead, Orange Is The New Black, Orphan Black.

Any ideas?

Have you tried the Ozarks on Netflix? I enjoyed that. Also Killing Eve on iPlayer. There are more...will have a look and try to remember.

I enjoyed Discovery of Witches as mindless weekend watching.

Outlander is coming on again soon, could be a good chance to watch it from the beginning if you haven't seen it. Again mindless rubbish.

Interested in this thread?

I finished Dexter a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it.

Now working my way through Ray Donovan.

JeffreyNeedsAHobby · 29/09/2018 19:28

Inside the Criminal Mind, Fargo, Dr Foster (was on BBC but now on Netflix) oh and there was one about the beginning of psychological profiling on serial killers but the name escapes me - was really good - can anyone else remember (on Netflix)?

TwistedStitch · 29/09/2018 19:29

The Sinner on Netflix is great.

PerspicaciaTick · 29/09/2018 19:33

Lucifer on Prime. With the lovely Tom Ellis.

implantsandaDyson · 29/09/2018 19:33

Mindhunter
The Alienist
Secret City
Borderliner

DwangelaForever · 29/09/2018 19:34

The looming tower on amazing prime is great (it's about FBI & CIA in run up to 9/11) it's based on true events

TaurielTest · 29/09/2018 19:34

GLOW (same showrunner as OITNB)
Sense8 (sprawling SF marmite)
Jessica Jones
all on Netflix

There seems to be bugger all on Prime.

IHaveBrilloHair · 29/09/2018 19:35

Trust on BBC IPlayer.

JeffreyNeedsAHobby · 29/09/2018 19:38

Mindhunter! I'd watch that (it's a drama based on real events) before Inside the Criminal Mind (the latter is a bit OOT American style "are all killers just EVIL! but has real footage) Grin.

Whereismumhiding2 · 29/09/2018 19:38

@JeffreyNeedsAHobby - Mindhunter?

ChorleyFMcominginyourears · 29/09/2018 19:38

12 monkeys is AMAZING!

JeffreyNeedsAHobby · 29/09/2018 19:39

Oh and YY to Sens8! Amazing, so sad it ended!

ChorleyFMcominginyourears · 29/09/2018 19:39

Whereismumhiding2 · 29/09/2018 19:40

Killing Eve
Jessica Jones
The Good Place
Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

bettybyebye · 29/09/2018 19:42

We’ve just enjoyed Jack Ryan on prime

JeffreyNeedsAHobby · 29/09/2018 19:43

Is there any way of actually scrolling through what you have watched on Netflix? It doesn't seem to remember what i've watched other than the red bar that tells you when you hover over the screen shot...quite frustrating as I'd love a list and an add button like iPlayer to make sure you see new episodes...I might be missing something here?

Whereismumhiding - Yes, I saw it listed and remembered it was that! Thanks!
The ribcage part in The Sinner is still echoing in my mind...

DwangelaForever · 29/09/2018 19:44

Unabomber on Netflix is amazing too

ihatethecold · 29/09/2018 19:54

Ozarks is fab (Netflix)
Bloodline was amazing (Netflix)
Billions (Now Tv )
Killing eve is very addictive and funny in places. (IPlayer)

Allsloppy · 29/09/2018 20:06

Weeds on Netflix is easy watching and humorous in places. Really enjoyed this.

Whatthefunk · 29/09/2018 20:21

I'm really enjoying Hannibal

butterfly56 · 29/09/2018 21:55

Godless on Netflix stars Michelle Dockery...it's brilliant!
