Kids have gone away to their dad's place for the weekend, and I'd really like to get my teeth into something new.
Thrillers really are my thing. Series I've enjoyed so far have been Mindhunter, Unbelievable, Dirty John, Twin, and the Sinner.
The Stranger didn't grab me, and nor did Netflix's How To Make A Murderer.
I don't want to watch Tiger King as I would end up focusing on the animals' plight, and not giving a shit about the humans in it. I wouldn't be able to watch the one about the abuse of the wee boy.
But I do like gritty, and the grittier and scarier the better!
Thanks in advance Smile

Code 8 on Netflix!

The American s on Prime. Deep undercover KGB agents masquerading as a normal all-American family. Absolutely brilliant.
Ozark on Netflix, normal family money laundering for a Mexican drug cartel...
Looks like I have a type!

Manhunt: Unabomber is very good on Netflix

IamEarthymama · 10/05/2020 15:16

Recently we have watched
Save Me
Save Me Too

Hunters
Killing Eve, it's ridiculous but enjoyable
Devs
Dublin Murders

Worth watching
Unforgettable
Shetland
Sherlock
Taboo
Mind you, I like Father Brown and Grantchester too
😉😊

I echo the recommendation of This is Us, it's wonderful
Jane the Virgin
Try something new!

Smoke & Mirrors is a great thriller (it’s a Spanish film and unbelievably it’s actually true!). If you like that then ‘The Bar’ is also good. Both on Netflix. As is El Hoya - very gritty!

If you don’t like subtitles ‘Gorky Park’ is a great film.

Fargo is also fab (it’s on Netflix)

"Dark"

Its a German time travel sci fi weird out

Thanks all. I don't think anything will live up to Mindhunter for me.
I did binge on the whole of Reckoning over the weekend though, and enjoyed it.
On episode 3 or 4 of Ozark, and I'm still on the fence with that.

Realise this is an old thread, but I second the True Detective recommendation @Dieu. Very gritty and great performance from Matthew McConaughey.
