What has had you hooked?

I feel like I haven't had a series in a while which has really gripped me and made me eager to watch more.

Any suggestions? I have Netflix, Amazon prime, Disney + along with usual BBC/ITV etc

Usually watch dramas/crime thrillers etc. but open to most genres. Thanks!

Molly's Game on iPlayer.
Only Murders on Disney

And for anyone who likes time travel, Pera Palace on Netflix. S2 is starting in a few days after a wait of 3 years or so

Homeland

Loved Sneaky Pete. Apparently it was abruptly cancelled by Prime even though it was rating well. My conspiracy theory radar pinged.

Ed to add: I loved The Marvellous Mrs Maisel on Prime. Unmissable just for the fabulous clothes. (It was very good in itself)

A second vote for narcos on Netflix. Really gripping story lines, and manages to not glamorize drugs or cartels. The people involved make the mafia seem tame.

The lady in the lake with Natalie Portman
Currently, The Americans

Dopesick

White Lotus
Motherland
Emily in Paris

A show called Unreal...

The guy is a scientologist isn't he? I dunno, I thought it was cancelled in covid pandemic. We came to it late but loved it.

There's a woman on Twitter who loves Matt Smith because of the GOT things so is watching his Doctor Who seasons and live tweeting it. She's become so besotted with the show she's now spreading out to earlier episodes.. It's a joy to witness.

Just found Taboo on Netflix - really atmospheric and engrossing.

Tough watch though

High Country was amazing. Best thing I've watched in ages. On ITV or BBC. Can't remember which.

Maestro in blue Netflix, is brilliant
The responder S1 on iPlayer, just watched this and was blown away!
Women in Blue on appletv based on a true story

bbc, be in iplayer

Needs some new binge watchers so place-marking

Funny Woman with Gemma Arterton (and a host of other great Brit actors).

Think it's on ITVx (series 1 complete, series 2 up to episode 5 with the last one dropping this week I think).

Pachinko

Another recommendation for Slow Horses on Apple. London, spies, great characters.

It's quite old but "Stella" on Amazon (not free mind you) is great. I watched it years back and just got back into it. It gets bad in series four IIRC but the first two or three series are brilliant.

Colin From Accounts is great
