We've just got Netflix after dd finally wore us down. So far we've really enjoyed The Sinner series 1 and 2. What else do yo recommend? I prefer drama type stuff and am not really into Sci Fi.

I liked season 1 and much as 2. 2 maybe a bit better

AgnesNaismith · 03/01/2020 21:34

I agree, season 2 of you is better!

severalcupsofcoffeelater · 03/01/2020 21:54

I have binge watched:-

The Crown
Line of duty
The good place
Good girls
The handmaids tale
Designated survivor
When they see us
Unbelievable

I'm currently watching the marvellous Mrs Maisel on amazon prime because i don't know what to watch next on netflix and i don't like anything violent or gory so that leaves out most things people recommend to me!

DH and I binge watched Line of Duty over Christmas ...brilliant (he's watched it before)

Happy Valley ( prefered Series 1 )

Don't waste your time with Gold Digger (hours I won't get back, I watched it when I was recovering so couldn't do anything else but even then it was a waste of time ! )

Criminal UK, followed by Criminal Spain, Germany and France. All filmed in the same set, different stories, same premise: interview room with hidden observers behind screen. 3 episodes per country...gripping.

Haunting of Hill House. If you've seen it - then watch it again and you'll see all the bits you missed.

ikeakia · 03/01/2020 23:14

Homeland (I’ve been binging majorly on this!)

The Witcher is very enjoyable and Henry Cavill is 85% of the reason.

And to the PP who recommended Iliza Schlesinger’s specials, I luffs you and her.

Mind hunter blew me away. Especially when I found out the main fbi character also voices the boyfriend in frozen 😂😂 VERY difficult roles!!!!

winobaglady · 03/01/2020 23:19

GLOW - I'm totally addicted and can't wait for series 3

Aww, I luffs you to dear. Grin

Her latest about getting married (Iliza Unveiled)is her best yet.

Nazi Mega Weapons was surprisingly well done and informative. It's from PBS (Public Broadcasting System, our equivalent to the BBC).

MorrisZapp · 04/01/2020 13:13

The Confession Killer, its a documentary with grim subject matter but so fascinating.

Neverlovedya · 04/01/2020 13:18

Drag Race
Fresh Meat
Freaks and Geeks
Orange is the new Black

Blueskywhy · 04/01/2020 13:26

I really like Orange is the New Black. Had heard of it in the past, but never seen it until Netflix.

Recently watched, Unbelievable ... and it is compelling, incredible that is it based on a real life events.

I love these threads, always gives me some new ideas of what to watch.
We loved Stranger Things (not a sci-fi fan at all, but this show is AWAZING)
The Good Place and Schitts Creek both recommended by DD and I
The Witcher and Peaky Blinders recommended by DH.
I have found that 100% of the shows supposedly spooky or scary definitely aren’t.

FOrgot to say money heist (casa de papel) was excellent!
