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'm starting on this as soon as I finish watching Pretty Little Liars! I've been binge watching it every night my son goes to bed, but now he's off at his nannas for a holiday until Sunday so will finish and get a good start on Bloodline - it looks amazing!

Candycandle · 02/04/2015 18:17

I need to watch this. :O

brumpton · 02/04/2015 19:39

I'm about to get started with this, can't wait!

dirtypop · 03/04/2015 16:47

gonna give it a go

Lolly12 · 03/04/2015 21:45

I heard that a season 2 will be released in 2016.

Five episodes down now and sympathies are changing all the time.

Love the scenery. The Florida keys look stunning.

RolodexOfHate · 04/04/2015 11:07

Love it. Has a great soundtrack too!

Squid102 · 04/04/2015 19:00

Very addictive watching!

CookieDoughKid · 04/04/2015 21:19

I'm at episode 7 now. It's such a good show and very addictive watching. I love the way, it slowly draws out the details of each family member's story. I can't yet work out if Danny's mother knew what had been going on in her family all this time??

miljones1 · 04/04/2015 22:05

Looks like a good series - I'll take a look after I finish House of Cards!

sofieellis · 04/04/2015 22:07

This looks really good. I think my husband has finaly persuaded me to get Netflix!

sweir1 · 04/04/2015 23:43

Ooh we're going to try this one

CookieDoughKid · 05/04/2015 12:11

I know what you mean lolly! It's shocking what's been going on behind the closet of this family but it's portrayed so realistically, you can easily imagine it happening in real life!

ggirl · 05/04/2015 17:37

we've just watched the 1st episode , looks good, just my type of thing.
I'm one of 4 siblings with 3 brothers and there's def a black sheep in our family lol.
Intriguing end to the first show ! How on earth did Danny survive that explosion!?

balloon66 · 05/04/2015 18:56

This sounds great. I don't have Netflix at the mo but may look into it again

amybell149 · 05/04/2015 19:25

I don't have Netflix but I wish I did, I'm definitely missing out

cheekychicken24 · 05/04/2015 22:14

Have scrolled down the page with my eyes shut! Don't want any spoilers, cos I've not started it yet, but as soon as I've finished Breaking Bad, I'm going to binge watch it - or I am if I can get OH to watch it too, otherwise it's stop-start when he's on nights!!

arabella505 · 05/04/2015 22:15

This looks good, no time to start binge watching a new TV show at the moment, but a "must watch" in summer I think.

Nervo · 06/04/2015 07:45

I'm now 9 episodes in. Have totally changed my mind on the characters. I like a few of them now. Still dislike the Mum though.

I think dh is just watching it to humour me.

There are parts of the dialogue that seem a bit like really crap improv.

xaphan77 · 06/04/2015 18:43

Havent watched it yet - theres so many tv series to get through on netflix!!!

KittyFan83 · 06/04/2015 19:13

I've just got started on this programme - had a long standing appointment with House of Cards and The Mentalist, but I've gone off those shows now.

K3rry · 06/04/2015 20:35

Been looking for a new series so will have to give this a try!

aoife24 · 06/04/2015 20:45

I enjoyed it and particularly liked John. The setting was new to me too, so interesting to see. I almost feel there's no need for a second series, I can imagine them all going on with their lives under this dreadful shadow, that would be their punishment, everything would be tainted.

lucyrobinson · 06/04/2015 23:20

I don't have netflix but this series looks great.

aaronscott91 · 07/04/2015 20:20

Def one for us to try!!
