August 4, 20169 yr Looking for good shows to watch on TV. Also interested in seekers on Showtime / HBO... As well as Netflix series / movies. Lately I saw a Jim Carey movie based on a true story that was well done on Netflix. Dark comedy vein. Called, "I love you Philip Morris." Best thing on TV right now? Ray Donavan. That shows getting more and more bad ass this year. Your turn.
August 4, 20169 yr Have you seen the movie chef? As a father it brings me to tears but it's also real good.
August 4, 20169 yr Happy Valley on Netflix. Good crime series in the same tone of something like Bosch (Amazon series) or Justified. Bojack is also back for season 3. These choices are definitely more likely to inspire existential despair tbh. Edited August 4, 20169 yr by Nixon

August 4, 20169 yr Author Started watching Limitless the series today on Netflix. It's good. Extends the story from the movie and even includes the past main actor in a supporting role. Well done.

August 4, 20169 yr Two must watch things on TV/Netflix right now. Stranger Things on Netflix. I know probably everyone has suggested it, but can't be said enough how good it is. Preacher on AMC. If you like really violent weird stuff.
August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 3, 2016 -> 09:30 PM) Stranger Things on Netflix /thread I've really been loving this show. I'm on episode 6.

August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 09:40 AM) The Great British Baking Show has a couple of runs on Netflix. Ha, I get sucked into that once in a while on the weekends when WTTW replays them. Totally reminds me of Junkyard Wars (British reality competition show? But with some funny/unique humor? I guess?) and i'm oddly entertained.
August 4, 20169 yr Peaky Blinders would be my recommendation on Netflix. Awesome season 1, better season 2, good but not great season 3. Marco Polo is pretty good and worth it even though it's not anything amazing. On Hulu, Casual is a decent 30 min dramady.
August 4, 20169 yr I was so bummed by Peaky Blinders season 3 I didn't even finish. Season 1&2 were great.
August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 09:57 AM) I was so bummed by Peaky Blinders season 3 I didn't even finish. Season 1&2 were great. Only three episodes into season one. Anyone now the best way to get seasons 1 and 2 of Ray Donovan?

August 4, 20169 yr Shows I have watched on Netflix and would recommend: Bloodline (just started season 2 but season 1 was really good) Making a Murderer Stranger Things (is really as awesome as everyone says) The Walking Dead Orange is the New Black (great to watch with a gf/wife. More of a girly show but entertaining enough that you both will enjoy) Planet Earth Life They added Shameless recently too which is a good show I have been following for awhile. Breaking Bad is on there too as well as Better Call Saul.

Around birth to 18 months old the water works flew off randomly for a lot of stuff. Then toddler tantrums and divorce court sucked me dry of that stuff. Yay.
August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (hi8is @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 01:53 PM) 11.22.63 on Hulu was good as well! This was a great mini-series.
August 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 4, 2016 -> 01:53 PM) This was a great mini-series. I'm on episode 4 and it's been a real struggle. Franco is so, so bad. Which is odd because he can be a decent actor. But for some reason it's just not clicking in this show.
