I like murder / mystery but nothing too gory. Real life stuff, historical dramas etc.

Loved the letdown, and have just started the crown.

Any other recommendations please?

The good place
Just started the chilling adventures of Sabrina. It is significantly darker than Sabrina the teenage witch!

You should really keep going with Homeland. I couldn’t stop watching it and can’t wait for the final series which is due here in April.

My user name is homage to my greatest new Netflix discovery, Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. A friend of mine mentioned it, I watched one episode and was hooked!

Need to keep an eye on this thread. New to Netflix and so lots to watch

SileneOliveira · 02/03/2019 08:16

If you don't mind reading subtitles (or happen to speak Spanish) both Money Heist (Casa de Papel) and Mar de Plastico are excellent.

The Sinner definitely.

Glad this thread came up, I don't get a chance to watch Netflix that often, but have a rare day without kids today so am going to go through these suggestions and watch something.
I think I'm gonna try the staircase as heard alot about that.

Frankie and Grace with Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Martin Sheen and the bloke from Law and Order.

Excellent show

Line of Duty

Fargo

GBBO

Place marking too. I do wonder how people seem to get through so many more series than we do but we spend months watching Australian Masterchef and My Kitchen Rules.

My Netflix recommendation is Peaky Blinders if you haven’t already seen it. I know it was on BBC2.

MadMum101 · 03/03/2019 13:49

The Punisher
Good Girls

Sallyspoons · 03/03/2019 13:56

The Assassination of Gianni Versace is very good

LuggsaysNotaWomen · 03/03/2019 14:01

Orphan Black is fab
Russian Doll
Maniac
Glitch
The OA
Stranger Things
The Good Place

LuggsaysNotaWomen · 03/03/2019 14:02

The Rain is good but turn it onto subtitles because the acting is good but the voice overs spoil it.

luckylavender · 03/03/2019 14:06

The Crown

Gina2012 · 03/03/2019 15:53

I must push through the staircase. I watched 15 minutes and got irritated - can't even remember why, now Confused

Gina2012 · 03/03/2019 15:55

I'm actually watching The Blair Years on Youtube atm. It's very good

Does anyone else feel guilty when they use another forum on which to watch?

I feel I should always use Netflix as I'm paying for it Blush

Aquamarine1029 · 03/03/2019 15:57

The Fall and The Killing.

Purpletigers · 03/03/2019 17:26

The chalet , the dark , Dirty John . Currently watching Van Helsing which is good but gory .
Black mirror too

Purpletigers · 03/03/2019 17:27

Line of duty is worth watching too

EvePolastriBaby · 03/03/2019 17:34

The Staircase is great.
Behind the curve.
Anything with Louis Theroux

Penny Dreadful. Best thing Eva Green's ever done.

Iloveantiques · 03/03/2019 18:06

I binged all eight episodes of Russian Doll yesterday. Thought it was brilliant.

Have now started Dirty John and Queer Eye
