I'm on mat leave and DS is cluster feeding all night. I'm going insane and have exhausted all of my Spotify playlists.

I need a binge watch-able tv series!

Loved:

  • Breaking Bad
  • The Street
  • Staircase
  • Evil Genius
  • Empire

But am open to all suggestions!

My 7 week old is a very demanding little thing!

Oh yes:

Scrubs is hilarious.

A discovery of Witches is very good but they have only done one season so far 😊

Vikings, Gavin and Stacey,

Youmadorwhat · 08/12/2018 12:26

The handmaids tale 🙌 best ever!

Oysterbabe · 08/12/2018 12:46

I really enjoyed the series I Am Innocent. It's just people who were wrongly accused of crimes telling their stories.

XiCi · 08/12/2018 12:52

The best series I have watched, if you don't mind subtitles, is Braquo. A brilliant French crime drama, followed closely by The Wire which is just brilliant, brilliant TV. Other series I've loved and binge watched are

Sons of anarchy
The Blacklist
Outlander
Power
How to get away with murder
The Good Wife
The Good fight

Been off with flu, binged Jane the Virgin. Haven't laughed out loud that much in ages!

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 08/12/2018 13:15

Loved Breaking Bad - nothing has matched up to it for me. Also loved the Crown, planned only to watch one episode to see what the fuss was about and got hooked! I also enjoyed Bloodline.

ItsBloodyFreezingg · 08/12/2018 13:30

If you like detective/mystery type shows I really enjoyed Broadchurch. They touch on some dark subjects but it's done very well and keeps you at the edge of your seat in some parts. Plus David Tennant and Olivia Coleman together are just brilliant. Either that or The Sinner or Big Little Lies.

Something a bit different to the norm, I'd say Fortitude, Stranger Things or Westworld.

Horror would be The Haunting of Hill House or American Horror Story although I didn't enjoy every season of AHS, it's sort of hit and miss for me.

Historical, I really enjoyed the Crown. Even DP got in on that and it's not really his 'thing'.

Suits is good if you like something with a bit of humour but still bingeable. Or Dexter.

TomHardysBackpack · 08/12/2018 13:43

I'm not sure where you can watch it now but Damages with Glenn Close is AMAZING

Also...
The Night Of
The Affair
American Horror Story
The Sinner
Desperate Housewives
House
Bloodline
Bates Motel
The Handmaids Tale

All excellent - enjoy maternity leave!

I meant big little lies rather than pretty little lies but the handmaids tail is the best ever.

Also enjoyed Skins although I was appalled at it to begin with but then got really into it.
