I succumbed to pressure from DS to get it... so might as well make the most of it. I've recently enjoyed Bodyguard and Killing Eve... any recommendations?

Household favourites here (nearly all mentioned before):
The Good Place
American Horror Story
Hannibal
Grimm
Jessica Jones
White Collar
One Day At A Time
Riverdale

And also the reboot of Dynasty - it's trashy, it's OTT, it's insane. Turn off your brain and wallow.

I have never been so hooked, it’s brilliant.

@RaininSummer how spooky is the haunting of hill house? DP won't watch it with me and he works nights so I'd have to watch it on my own at night when he'd gone to work... will I sleep?!

I couldn't get away with breaking bad, watched a couple of series then went meh.

Then again took me many goes to get into game of thrones, then we'll and truly binged it.

Looking forward to the hill house one mentioned when I go to bed.

More votes for The Good Place and Stranger Things.

Also I really enjoyed The 3% - it's Portuguese but dubbed into English. It's great if you like a bit of post-apocalyptic Hunger Games style drama (and I do ;) )

taraplus · 13/10/2018 22:30

The Kalief Browder story - a must watch so sad I had to watch it twice. Interested to know if anyone else has seen it.

FordGirl · 13/10/2018 22:35

Prison break!

PawneeParksDept · 13/10/2018 22:40

@Havalina I struggled with the first series of BB. Season 4 is one of the best single series of TV ever made

Designated Survivor
The Crown
Somewhere Between
The Purge

chemenger · 13/10/2018 22:46

Grace and Frankie and Schitt’s Creek - the funniest comedies. Stranger things and American Horror series one.

DianaT1969 · 13/10/2018 22:47

Better Call Saul
Suits

Havalina · 13/10/2018 23:03

@PawneeParksDept I will give it another go then Grin.

It's annoying being against the zeitgeist and trying hard to get things. Although I ended up binging got I still think it's waffly and bollocks and overlong in places.

PawneeParksDept · 13/10/2018 23:07

@Havalina I think for GOT it REALLY helps to read the book, at least Book 1, first, for background bought it for someone who was watching and she said she wished she'd gone book first.
