Netflix are excited to bring you Bloodline, a brand new Netflix original series, from Todd A. Kessler, Daniel Zelman, Glenn Kessler – the creators of the acclaimed show Damages.

Bloodline is a dramatic thriller that explores the demons lurking beneath the surface of a contemporary American family. The Rayburns are hard-working pillars of their Florida Keys community. But when the black sheep son comes home for the 45th anniversary of his parents' hotel, he threatens to expose the Rayburns' dark secrets and shameful past, pushing his siblings to the limits of family loyalty.

The series stars Kyle Chandler (Friday Night Lights), Ben Mendelsohn (The Dark Knight Rises), Linda Cardellini (Mad Men) and Norbert Leo Butz as the Rayburn siblings, and the iconic actress Sissy Spacek as the Rayburn matriarch.

The whole of season one is now available on Netflix so feel free to binge watch as much as you like Grin. Wherever you are up to in the show we’d like you to pop on and off this thread to discuss the series and share with us what your thoughts are! Everyone who takes part in the discussion will be entered into a prize draw to win an iPad Air 2 and a 6 month subscription to Netflix!

Note on spoilers: We want to hear your thoughts on everything, from plot twists to season finales and more - but if you’re talking anything that could reveal important plot details then please put Spoiler warning at the beginning of your post to alert others who may not have seen it.

I don't have Netflix but the trailer looks really good. Thinking about signing up!

soozybee1 · 24/03/2015 09:28

Might be worth a watch

Cherrygrape4 · 24/03/2015 10:27

Looks good, might even be worth signing up for the free trial for :)

bubblesbambam · 24/03/2015 11:55

What a fantastic first episode! Counting down the days to the weekend and going to watch it back to back on saturday, cant wait!

YateSue · 24/03/2015 13:35

Seen the first episode which was really good
Except it may cost us a small fortune as we now fallen in love with the Keys and would love to visit

sliceofsoup · 24/03/2015 15:06

I have watched to ep 3 and will continue tonight when DCs in bed. I find it requires concentration because of all the time skipping.

I will admit that I didn't immediately warm to any of the characters, and find the youngest brother particularly annoying, but I trust that that is the intention.

Japsamba · 24/03/2015 17:12

I'm looking for a new series to binge on and quite like the look of this one. will return once I've had a look!

shydaylily · 24/03/2015 17:15

looks good

suzyq50 · 24/03/2015 18:50

2 episodes in & I like it. Gorgeous setting in The Keys but in regards to the story there's some bad blood in this family for sure. Feeling sorry for the Danny character, wonder if that'll change as more is revealed.

Roseformeplease · 24/03/2015 20:16

I love the lush scenery and it brightens up the cold winter. The storyline is much less pleasant, in places, but pleasingly addictive. Will enjoy this one.

Balonder · 24/03/2015 21:35

I have been binge-watching for the past few nights and I'm on episode 10. I'm really enjoying the plot twists and the beautiful setting. Another excellent Netflix programme

pastizzi · 24/03/2015 22:39

Knew I would love this about 5 minutes in. It's exactly like a much darker Brothers and Sisters

mutleythegooner · 25/03/2015 10:55

One episode down and I'm hooked already. So many things I should be doing but I see a Bloodline marathon coming on!

CK12232 · 25/03/2015 11:07

Now this sounds like an interesting plot line! I struggle in the evenings without something to watch, and seeing as Walking Dead is just about to finish this could fill up my nights perfectly!

itsmeexxx · 25/03/2015 16:28

Not bad, better than i thought it would be so def going to watch the next one :-)

MagersfonteinLugg · 25/03/2015 17:57

Well I wasn't expecting thatShock
Hope there's going to be more soon.

carrick · 25/03/2015 20:40

Was having withdrawal symptoms as have finished both The Good Wife & House of Cards both were fantastic so was very pleased to find Bloodlines! Watched my first episode last nite and it did the trick as I can't wait to see what happens in the next episode! So far so good!

MagersfonteinLugg · 26/03/2015 00:09

I want to ask a question but I daren't in case of spoilersHmm
I'll probably have to watch that episode again to see if it sheds some light.

spursfan1106 · 26/03/2015 03:37

Will have to give this a go will be needing something new to watch when he walking dead finishes!

sliceofsoup · 26/03/2015 10:29

Magers ask the question but put SPOILER at the top of your post.

I am up to ep 7. I am hooked.

lionheart · 26/03/2015 18:52

Yes, just like Damages except that I think it was overused in Damages and just became repetitive and confusing. Hope this manages to stay on track. I need something to replace Breaking Bad.

gingysmummy · 26/03/2015 21:18

I've seen adverts for this looks really good,looking forward to watching it with a nice glass of wine

lhlee62 · 26/03/2015 21:39

The trailer looks amazing, but we don't have NetFlix

Emgrace · 27/03/2015 12:51

Ohh sounds really interesting! we have just finished Sons of Anarchy and feel a bit lost!

deepcmum · 27/03/2015 13:44

looks good, will try to make time to watch.
