I need something to watch (again)!

Last time I asked for recommendations,some kind soul recommended Offspring and I loved it. I have trouble sleeping so I binge watch shows. I would love something as easy to watch as Offspring or Friends from College, preferably many many seasons. I’m up to date with Good Place, Innocents, Glitch. I think I’m basically running out of crap on Netflix (go me!). Any recommendations?

Grace and Frankie

MillicentSnitch · 23/02/2019 19:06

GLOW, Schitt's Creek.

Floralmoral · 23/02/2019 19:31

I can’t get into Grace and Frankie, no idea why! I’ll maybe give it another try. Haven’t seen Glow or Schitt’s creek, could be an idea for next week.
Honestly, only being able to sleep 2-3 hours a night makes nights very very long Confused

Glow is amazing - really life affirming

Just watched Dirty John last few days - was pretty good

If you can watch subtitles - the 3% is fantastic (basically apocalyptic series where only 3% get to live well) - it's really good

I couldn't get into grace and frankie either and gave up on Schittts creek after about 4 episodes

If you haven't done Ozark then do.

I'm currently addicted to The Umbrella Academy on Netflix. Its bloody marvellous!

Floralmoral · 23/02/2019 20:27

Thank you!
I’ve seen 3% and loved it. I think I’ll give Glow a go tonight, I could do with something life affirming. I watched Dirty John last weekend, enjoyed it too. I’ve also seen You, Between, In Between, Tidelands, Sisters, the list is endless...

Power on Netflix is amazing and so bingeable as it's addictive. There are 5 seasons available too. Not sure if it's 'easy' watching though as you have to follow plot quite closely.

Riverdale- completely ridiculous but great viewing.

Lovetodream · 23/02/2019 20:29

Crazy ex girlfriend, how to get away with murder,orphan black is amazing!

WhoGivesADamnForAFlakeyBandit · 23/02/2019 20:32

Have you got Prime? New Amsterdam is definitely bingeworthy. Also Life in Pieces and Casual.

Have you watched the OA on Netflix?

Floralmoral · 23/02/2019 20:37

I’ve got Prime but never used it for watching anything. Need to figure out how to do it Blush I’m an idiot when it comes to stuff like this.
I’ve seen Orphan Black, watched it all in less than a week Blush, Crazy ex girlfriend too. I haven’t seen How to get away with murder, power or Riverdale. Adding to the list. I truly love MN Grin thank you.

Oh and I haven’t seen OA, need to investigate.

Ozark is very good. It takes a couple of episodes to warm up but two good seasons and a third season on the way.

How to get away with murder is good too but requires concentration as it's very fast paced. I've been trying to watch it with DS and dd around and if I'm distracted by them something always happens!

WhoGivesADamnForAFlakeyBandit · 23/02/2019 20:41

Oh on Prime also The man in the high castle, the Americans, Outlander.

Floralmoral · 23/02/2019 20:54

Ozark is something I watch with DP and I’m not allowed to binge watch Wink it’s a rule in our house that shows we watch together, we ONLY watch together.
As soon as I figure out how to log into my Prime account, I’ll investigate the shows mentioned!

Grace and Frankie
Dirty John -this is the best on Netflix at the moment.

Missmother · 24/02/2019 10:39

To those that aren’t keen on Grace+Frankie; seasons 2 and up are apparently a lot better and the critics said so too, I urge you to give it a chance as it has some really hilarious moments in it and I absolutely love Jane Fonda.

If you can stomach You then Grace & Frankie is a breeze, not that I didn’t like You but I didn’t find it an easy watch.
