What's good on Netflix at the moment?

I need something new, preferably a series or documentary rather than a film.
An easy watch as I have no brain power at this time.

Film - woman of the hour
Series - Maid, the good place, Santa clarita diet (damn you Netflix for cancelling it)

Sweet Bobby
Can I tell you a secret?

Series wise I am liking
The resident
New amsterdam
The perfect couple

The burning girls also looks worth a watch

It’s on 4 on demand but we have just binged watched Everyone Else Burns. It’s quite funny and light hearted.

Have you seen Caliphate? It's brilliant.

Just watched the 1st episode on your recommendation. Thanks, looking forward to the rest.

Frosty1000 · 02/11/2024 22:04

Heart stopper is a sweet watch
Geek girl was good as was new Amsterdam that I've just the watched and forgot about.

Lincoln Lawyer is a pretty easy watch and we just started season 3, so there’s plenty of it!

Love all of this although season three isn’t a patch on season two!

Glad I’m not the only one who’s loving Bump! So well acted and relatable.

I love Aussie shows and this is a great one

I really liked series 2 of The Diplomat (binge-watched it last night). I was gutted when I realised that was the last episode and they weren't more left.

Snap.
really regretting binging it all in one go. Will have to wait ages for the next series.

Noseybookworm · 02/11/2024 22:12

I love Motherland and Catastrophe but you've probably seen them! Nobody Wants This is easy watching. Just started watching the new Zodiac documentary - good so far!

kinkytoes · 02/11/2024 22:56

It's old but I'm watching Fat Friends. Never saw it first time around.

Cuppachino · 02/11/2024 22:57

Calliopespa · 02/11/2024 20:19

Was motherland any good?

Absolutely fantastic. As is Breeders.

Beebumble2 · 02/11/2024 23:02

ViciousCurrentBun · 02/11/2024 18:47

I’m watching The Burning Girls, it’s not perfect but it’s decent enough.

Just finished binge watching this. Nice to see a British series. I wasn’t expecting the twists as it progressed.

aesoplover · 02/11/2024 23:08

Catastrophe is really good if it's still on there.

Second Motherland.

Kibble29 · 02/11/2024 23:38

I liked The Let Down too. It’s an Australian comedy about a new Mum who tries to navigate all the usual utter shite situations that come with a new baby lol.

She goes to a baby group and there are all the stereotype mums there - the hippy, the career-focused Mum, the show off, the one with loads of kids, the gay mum etc. It’s easy watching and quite relatable at times.

SlightlyJaded · 02/11/2024 23:52

SO jealous of anyone who hasn't watched Motherland.

Agree The Perfect Couple was AWFUL. Utter bilge
Quite enjoyed Woman of the Hour
And to my shame, I can't stop watching 'Worst Roommate Ever'

LEE has just been released on Sky - if you have that?

Blackfluffycats · 03/11/2024 07:13

Also if anyone has Apple TV severance is the best series I’ve watched in a long time!! So so good!

SauvignonBlanche · 03/11/2024 13:59

I started watching Manifest but then discovered that they have series 4 but not series 3 🤷🏻‍♀️

I can't get over how much smiling, head tilting, and running one doctor can do.

Ha ha ha, the head tilt is actually really annoying 😂

He embodies this emoji 😆 although I wouldn't kick him, Dr Bell or Dr Austin, Dr Feldman or Dr Pravesh out of bed. They're all impossibly beautiful.

cunoyerjudowel · 03/11/2024 16:45

Crime drama at its best
The stranger
Safe

Agreed.

I am enjoying it, I was a loyal Grey's fan up until recently, so it's a good replacement.

I like the Diplomat. Series 2 just out.

I was going to recommend this. It’s great.

Maddy70 · 04/11/2024 10:14

The intern. Easy watching

ffsgloria · 05/11/2024 13:30
