If I like:

Crime dramas - Broadchurch and similar
SciFi - Dr Who, Supernatural and similar
Comedies - old fashioned ones like Dad's Army, Big Bang and similar

We watched several Ru Paul's Drag Race tonight and loved it (in a car crash telly sort of way).

What should I look out for?

Benidorm
Marseille
Stranger Things
Homeland

We're not telly addicts by any means but my god Netflix is money well spent!

I google what to watch on Netflix 2017 quite often and always end up watching brilliant, left field films I'd never heard of but love.

Orphan black

13 reasons why - warning about suicide but it's an amazing show

nancy75 · 18/06/2017 22:09

Better call Saul & breaking bad if you haven't seen it.

Stranger things is great

Summerisdone · 18/06/2017 22:12

I second Orphan Black and Stranger Things.
Also worth a watch:
The OA
Luther
Son's of Anarchy
Orange is the New Black

There's also some really good true crime documentaries on there too

Absolutely loads of choice tbh but I can't think of majority right now

Izzy24 · 18/06/2017 22:12

House of Cards

CornflakeHomunculus · 18/06/2017 22:13

Hannibal
iZombie

Orange is the new black is amazing.

PelvicFloorClenchReminder · 18/06/2017 22:18

I'm currently watching Outnumbered. I may be netflixing incorrectly.

MyDressIsBold · 18/06/2017 22:20

Stranger Things

Don't know if 3% is still on there but I really enjoyed it. It is in Portuguese but you can choose to have the English dubbing. Took me till episode 4 to figure that out...

RebelandaStunner · 18/06/2017 22:20

Bloodline
Black mirror
The killing
Bates motel
The bridge

strugglingwithmaths · 18/06/2017 22:24

iZombie. Surprisingly funny
The unbreakable Kimmy Schmitt

thatstoast · 18/06/2017 22:24

Orphan Black
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
Mad Men
My Crazy Ex Girlfriend
3% (but with subtitles)

readyforno2 · 23/06/2017 01:29

Pretty little liars, there's only one more episode. I'm absolutely hooked!

TSSDNCOP · 23/06/2017 12:48

I just finished Designated Survivor which was really good in a far-fetched way.

The Crown is great.

I also really enjoyed the first series of Frankie and Grace.

PinkCrystal · 23/06/2017 13:37

The Killing
Breaking Bad
Riverdale

BubblesInTheTub · 23/06/2017 13:41

OITNB

Avoid:
Making a Murderer
13 Reasons Why
Pretty Little Liars
American Horror Story

Most long-form documentaries that take 13 episodes to drag out a point (like someone innocent was put in prison, someone was murdered and an organisation covered it up) which could be made in an hour.

BubblesInTheTub · 23/06/2017 13:42

Also avoid the American version of The Killing- boring and predictable but Joel Kinamen is quite fun to look at.

Henrythehoover · 23/06/2017 13:51

Black mirror
Breaking bad
Better call saul
Orange is the new black
American horror story

And a bit stupid but I like it bojack horseman

SunshinePop · 25/06/2017 21:24

Peaky Blinders, Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad

ememem84 · 25/06/2017 21:27

Orange is the new black, pretty little liars, stranger things, 13 reasons why, breaking bad, better caul Saul

isittheholidaysyet · 25/06/2017 21:29

Another vote for designated survivor, the Crown and homeland.

MissBax · 25/06/2017 21:31

I just binged The OA - it was FAB!! For the first episode I was very "meh" up until the last 5/10 mins and then it grabbed me, and each episode gets better from there on. Definitely recommend...
