That's it really. I enjoy a good binge watch every so often. DC all all school / nursery. I've done all house work, have dinner on the go.
Now I want to lounge on the sofa with tea and biscuits, and indulge in good telly.
I liked GoT, Dexter (first half only) , Desperate Housewives, Prison Break, Walking Dead as examples.

What should I watch MNetters?

Do you have Netflix? We've just watched Stranger Things which was brilliant. I splurged on the ER box set not too long ago and have yet to have enough spare time to actually watch it, I can't wait though. That'll take me years to plough through

American Horror Story is good (apart from the newest season).

Have you seen Breaking Bad?

Ally McBeal if you like a throwback.

Footballers wives is cheesy and fun.

Orphan Black is gripping.

ElsaAintAsColdAsMe · 08/11/2016 11:30

Oh and Orange Is The New Black.

ICanTuckMyBoobsInMyPockets · 08/11/2016 11:31

The Good Wife
Code Black (series 2 just started, but very good)
Inside Obamas White House (4 part BBC)
Boardwalk Empire, my favouritist box set ever
Making a murderer
Stranger Things
Orange is the new black

Jealous that you have so much good telly ahead of you!

SouthernNorthernGirl · 08/11/2016 11:33

Ah yes, they were just examples. Also have watched Boardwalk Empire, Stranger Things and Orange is the New Black

Glitch is giod! And Returned (both similar but different enough)
Broad church is also good
I second orphan black too - very good!!

Lorelei76 · 08/11/2016 11:37

The Affair for a slightly shorter binge watch - 2 seasons, 12 eps I think
The Night Of - only one season

Body of Proof
Elementary
latter two having a wee bit more humour!!

Lorelei76 · 08/11/2016 11:37

oh Broadchurch season 1 is excellent.
did you watch the Night Manager, that's very good.

Glitch -Netflix
Designated survivor- Netflix
Suits
White collar
2nd good wife

RiverTam · 08/11/2016 11:43

Halt and Catch Fire, all three seasons on Amazon Prime.

And Pushing Daisies is an oldy but a goody, only two seasons, but two seasons of joy and quirkiness.

Both star Lee Pace which has absolutely nothing to do with why I love them, oh no.

QuestionableMouse · 08/11/2016 11:44

If you have Netflix, the expanse is really good. Plus series one of Poldark is on there now.

Justified (Boxset on BlinkBox) is a fantastic show too.

AMR123456 · 08/11/2016 11:45

Chicago fire,PD & med are also great!!

OnceMoreIntoTheBleach · 08/11/2016 11:53

The good wife is fab!

Offspring on Netflix is amazing Smile the characters build so nicely, like Friends did.

Dedicated survived is also great.

SouthernNorthernGirl · 08/11/2016 11:55

Checking these all out! I can't find a few of them though.. where can I find these?

Pushing Daisies I think you'd have to buy on dvd as its quite old. I think you can get some tasters on YouTube.

The Killing is very good. I'm watching the US version but I've heard the Danish version is also good.

SouthernNorthernGirl · 08/11/2016 12:11

Homeland looks promising - where can I watch it for free?
