What to watch on Netflix
- Edited
PA-PLAYA Merry Christmas!, PA and Happy New Year, too!
I was remiss in not including, "Ascension" as a show worth watching. I was disappointed that ended so abruptly. The concept was brilliant.
Also, Making A Murderer and The Keepers ...riveting docs.
Oh, I keep having things pop in my head...13 Reasons Why...was sobering. Another cool but morbid concept. Very jarring.
Bloodline was also one of Netflix best. Season 1 was tremendous. Entire thing was very good but they didn't save their best for last.
Manhunt was a compelling show from beginning to end. It was a catch me if you can thriller. I learned a lot about the Unabomber. Love those series based on true stories. Reminded a little of, Argo...that kind of feeling throughout.
Absentia is on foreign versions of Netflix. Not sure when that one is coming to US, but that's another dark mystery show that I couldn't stop watching. No season 2 as it tied up nicely.
I recently finished, Wanted...a very slow starter but I kept watching and felt rewarded at the end. A little Thelma and Louisey.
Shooter was good. A nice government conspiracy Rambo-esque thriller.
The 4400 is still on Netflix...good stuff. Too bad they took away, Prison Break...that was one of the most enjoyable rides on Netflix.
Just got done going through my account history ... Loved, The People vs. OJ Simpson, The OA was good. Didn't care for American Vandal and liked many already referenced.
If you like stupid humor, and don't mind checking your brain at the door watch The Windsors on Netflix.
Stranger things I'm gonna start watching.
Don't know if it's been mentioned but I just finished Ozark and it was pretty darn good.
"Our Souls at Night" is a 2017 Jane Fonda and Robert Redford fun flick.
"The Homesman" was different. Takes a couple unexpected turns.
Black Mirror new episodes today.
Frontier is good, historical and gritty.
Wife and I have been binge watching "Frankie and Grace". Don't remember when we've laughed so hard. It's been a hoot. About half way through Season 2.
Just borrowed the first season, on dvd, from a co-worker, of The Sopranos. I’ve been wanting to see this show for a long time now, but keep those Netflix choices comin.
My wife loves that show. I can’t stand Jane Fonda. The rest of the Fonda clan are gold, imo.
We've gotten a lot of mileage out of Unbreakable Kimmie Schmidt

You won't find a better series than The Sopranos imo. The first season is good, but it gets much better as the series progresses.
Bought the collector's edition of their DVD box-set several years ago, and still watch it on HBO's AppleTv channel subscription.
Hard to believe we're coming upon James Gandolfini's 4 year anniversary of his death. He was a remarkable actor who somehow escaped the typecast of the mafia personality that he was most known for.
Enjoy! You won't be disappointed. A lot of people were disgruntled with the ending, but looking back on how the series ended - it was fitting that it ended the way it did.
Because of this thread I started watching Ozark. It's good. Appreciate the recommendation!
I watched Bladerunner 2049 a few days ago on Netflxx. Save your $5.99. It is a slow moving 2:44 and after I watched it I had to look up a synopsis on Wiki to figure out what I watched. And, the "Big Star" Harrison Ford didn't even show up until the last 1/3rd of the film, obviously selling his name.
SWMBO and I are watching The Following, Season 1. Kevin Bacon is pretty good in this role.
Not on Netflix, but I’ve been watching season 1 of The Sopranos on dvd and I’m hooked!
Just finished the 3rd season of Peaky Blinders. Very good show .
