OT Netflix

[huskerhooligansdotcom]

+1 for Rome. Great HBO show that was only two seasons because of the enormous production costs. It was supposed to replace the Sopranos but got too expensive.

Also, no one has mentioned Better Call Saul. Good show even though it is technically a spin off/prequel for Breaking Bad (which i've actually never seen)

Longmire, Last Chance U, Stranger Things and Last Kingdom.

My favorite show on Netflix of all time is the Swedish Wallander. Followed by Foyles War.

Then you would like The Fall first and second seasons best great villain and J-Anderson-Skully from x-files is the main character. There are several others that are Netflix original series or on Netflix now but started on BBC. I liked Wallander a lot too but he could not get out of his own way. Longmire as is Hell on wheels and justified. Good luck show hunting.

What is it about?

About a brilliant Australian attorney(called a Barrister, down there), who likes to drink and gamble. Well written and acted.

 

[VandalHuskerJulie]

Just looked it up - House of Cards will be back for Season 5. Can't wait to see what they write next. BTW they are reporting that the character Remy won't be back.

 

[NU9920]

Justified is great. Is Rome worth it then?

Rome is one of the best HBO productions ever with Deadwood. Of course if you have not seen the Soprano's or Breaking Bad or Boardwalk Empire. But BBC has some great shows as does amazon prime and Netflicks original series.

Loved The Fall, although I thought season one was much better than season two

Gonna have to try Rome. Many people have suggested it to me.

Bojack Horseman is hilarious and in the same breath, deeply depressing. I love it.

Arrested Development - it gets better the more times you watch it. One of my favorite shows of all time.

Breaking Bad is great. They never jumped the shark, super hard for a drama.

Crown is pretty good. Almost finished with it. Its about the Queen.

(If you have HBO - Game of Thrones is incredible.)

Weeds is decent for the first few seasons.

Dear Zachary - if you want to curl up in a ball and cry for about 3 weeks straight.

Buck - my favorite documentary. I have watched it several times

What is Buck about?

A guy that trains horses and runs horse clinics. It's more about the guy and his story than about horses. My discription isn't doing it justice. It's a great watch.

 

[Huskerfan2112]

Adam-12. Its a true classic
Twilight Zone. Another classic

Sounds great. I have horses. So perfect

 

[GretnaShawn]

Then you'll love it. It lightly goes over his training methods and whatnot. But it's much more about him and his past. It's not intense or thrilling, but it's extremely interesting.

Can't believe know one has put in a plug for Shameless. (After-hours only) Not very kid friendly...

Currently watching Blue bloods and Just finished 100.

Just started the second season of Shameless. William Macy is great in it.

What did you think of Black Mirror? After watching season 1 I still can't decide if I liked it. Interesting episode topics and what we may see in near future on some though.

Borgia, there are 2, one isn't so great, the other is. Tudors is good too.

Black Mirror has some episodes that will make you go Holy **** that could happen... Some are a little overboard. Some are very controversial (Episode 5 - Season 3). Some just make your jaw drop at how f'd up they are (Episode 1 - Season 1, Episodes 2 and 4 - Season 2 and Episode 3 - Season 3)... Then there is the last episode in Season 3 that is absolutely amazing and my favorite of all of them. I will say this some people on this site better hope someone doesn't do something similar in real life

If you are serious you'll love the IT Crowd

Borgia, there are 2, one isn't so great, the other is. Tudors is good too.

1 is called "Borgia", the other is called "The Borgias".

"Borgia" is the good one.

If you like the TV show Rome, you should check Spartacus all 4 seasons were pretty good, especially the 1st season blood and sand

 

[IUHusker]

Dont think I've seen them on the thread but a few good ones:

Luther - Really good has the guy from the WIRE as the star

White Chaple - Cop Drama with a historic angle

The Fall - Skully from the X-Files is trying to solve a murder

You would appear to have an affinity for William H Macy. May want to give Shameless a shot.
