I just watched Abducted as well and I thought it was a sick parody.

Umbrella Academy is pretty good so far. Only a couples episodes in but its very strong to start.
Prepare to feel very uncomfortableOriginally Posted by Melly
Will keep that in mind.
It was really good. I'd kinda rate it somewhere on the upper side when compared with the Marvel Netflix series. I really enjoyed the ending to. I think one thing that REALLY helped was keeping it to 10 episodes.
Was literally about to start this tonight before reading your post. The friend who recommended it reckons I'm going to love it. Lets see if he's right...
Friends From College was cancelled. Boo. I think I'm going to have to go back to my rule of not watching a show until it hits the 4th season because the shows I do end up enjoying get cancelled.
'Period. End of Sentence.' Powerful doc.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
If you haven't watched "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" yet, pull it up on your Netflix machine. I cried at least three times.
Really loses steam as it goes. The episode where he makes a musical super group feels really really scripted and then a lot of those characters show up in the new africa episode.
I enjoyed most of the early eps though
I can agree with all of that. The two episodes you mentioned started feeling a bit too much like a reality show which pushed me back a bit. There were some conversations that felt pretty scripted at times, too...oddly enough, the first episode when he talked to his partner at that diner felt really fake for some reason.
I finally watched Gerald's Game. Tripped out movie. I wanna take some DXM and watch it again eventually.
Also watched Gerald's Game. I didn't really like it....but reading about what it meant/really happened made me like it a tiny bit more. Too cheesy and unrealistic at points for me.
I liked it a lot more than she did.
Coulfnt make it through the first episode. Pure guff.
The degloving scene in Gerald's Game is really tough to watch. Seriously brutal.
It was pretty nasty!
Word. But...
I guess I kinda chalked it up to adrenaline. I haven't seen the movie in over a year, so I'm a little fuzzy when it comes to certain parts. In reality she probably would gone into shock, but her perseverance was a big part of the story.
A little surprised. You usually have decent in taste in TV.
I will assume that you didnt like the way the druggie was portrayed because it isnt realistic to your own experiences with addiction.
That was deliciously mean.
Yeah, that's how I tried to rationalize it. I'm not saying it was totally over the top, just a bit more than I could swallow.
Honking show and honking patter.
I watched Paddleton on Netflix this weekend. I highly recommend it. It dealt with terminal illness and assisted suicide so it was pretty sad, obviously, but it had some great acting with Ray Romano and Mark Duplass. Despite being a mostly sad story, there were some lighter, funny moments too.
I watched the trailer, looks good.
Watching umbrella academy. It's not honking by any means. I think I got the ending pegged down but we shall see. The music selections in this has been nothing short of fantastic.
I love PEN15.
It's great. Brutally awkward at times, but it's funny and it all works.
Swiss Army Man, a movie that is about Daniel Radcliffe as a corpse that helps a man find his way out of the wilderness.
That movie is great.
I'm gonna have to watch that. It looks nuts.
Alrighty then.
The movie's trippy enough sober, I suspect it'd be balls wild if you're high...which i assume you would be. Enjoy.
Yeah very bizarre flick. Worth a watch though.
Watching "Abducted In Plain Sight." So awful.
Ok I have 17 mins left (will watch rest tomorrow)......what the hell?!

Finished it. Wow. Crazy stuff.
Just began "The Sinner."
Update: Such a great show. I am on episode 7 already!

Just got Netflix yesterday, but have so much stuff piled up to watch anyway!
Watched the first After Life yesterday. I really liked it.
Because I'm in the middle of so many other things already, what should I be checking out on Netflix that isn't already about 6 seasons in? My sister has recommended The Staircase and Making a Murderer, but I'm not sure I want to watch anything too depressing right now. The Madeline McCann doc at 8 parts sounds a bit much as well.
Thinking Line of Duty or Narcos, but I'm aware, they are quite vast.
I'm not going to be getting much sleep for a while.
I also thought about sports documentaries. Saw the Bobby Robson one was on there.
Line Of Duty is fantastic, easily the best of all the things you've mentioned.
My Mum loves it and I love Vicky McClure.
I was leaning towards Narcos until you said that though.
I started Line of Duty last month after enjoying Bodyguard. With the new series coming in April, there's plenty of time to catch up. Only 4 seasons with 5 - 6 episodes in each. It's so gripping that you'll binge it in no time. Excellent show.
If you like sci-fi, give Stranger Things a try. The first series in particular is very good. Daredevil is worth a look if you like action/superhero stuff.
I'm currently trying to catch up on Supernatural. Made a dent in Season 11 over the weekend. My wife had seen seasons 1-9, and I had seen 1-somewhere in 11, so we watched season 10 over the past month. Looking forward to seeing stuff I haven't seen before, but it's fun to re-watch the old episodes too.
Thanks Man. I loved Bodyguard, so Line of Duty it looks like for me. Daredevil could suit me and Stranger Things, possibly.
Also, my wife can't binge watch anything and I think she'd like Line of Duty, so I may hold off on that, watch it with her and binge watch something else.
Anyone check out Triple Frontier yet (new one with Charlie Hunnam, Ben Affleck)?
I just added Narcos and Line of Duty to my list.
A few suggestions:
Schitt's Creek, Big Mouth, Blue Planet and Blue Planet II, BoJack Horseman, The Sinner.
Anything with David Attenborough gets a big thumbs up from me. Well, from everyone, right?
Of course!
I wonder if there's Richard Attenborough works on Netflix too. I enjoyed Shadowlands. I'd love to check out some of his other directorial work.
It's not on Netflix, but anyone ever watch Banshee?
Just finished Season 2, excellent show.
It’s fairly shit. Everything Charlie Hunnam is in (except Undeclared) would be better without him in it.
Friends from College was good I am sad it has been cancelled
Looking for something light to watch with the gal. We usually have something going that is comedy and is not a big deal if you fall asleep and miss an episode. We did Cheers, Office, Parks and Rec. Things of that nature.
Family Guy
Watched the first two eps of After life, Good stuff.
Peter!
Rancid!
Thought it was just hitting it's stride. Shame.
That man's "being rimmed" acting changed my life.
Who do you think could have played Nathan better than Hunman?
I've only seen him in Green Street and SOA, and he's awful in both of them.
- - - Updated - - -
I definitely haven't seen him in Queer as Folk in fact I dunno what that even is.
Best show in history
- - - Updated - - -
Motley Crue movie was pretty great.
Finished season 1 of The Sinner. Good stuff.
Really enjoying Love, Death, & Robots. A series of short animated episodes. Each is only as long as they need to be. Some being only 11mins, and some over 20. Different animation styles, different tones, and different voice actors. This is really easy to binge through. I'd like to see what they do with it next, as long as it's as successful as it needs to be.
Just came in here to post about it. It's pretty damn dope.
Need some help. I watched a film few months ago pretty sure it was on Netflix, 2 couples locked in a room solving puzzles and there is a guy in the same room chained up. There’s a timer an hour I think. Every ten minutes or something like that his chain gets looser and he gets closer. It was decent film but can’t for life of me remember what it’s called. I think there’s something to do with a old wooden box that’s in the room too.
It’s not Escape Room.
Not bad. Worth watching if you have two hours and can’t find anything else on.
I’ve heard it’s great.
I watched Den Of Thieves on Friday and loved that, this was then recommended to me.
Den of Thieves > Triple Frontier
Is that Queer as Folk? I haven’t seen it. But I just did a quick search on actors that are a similar age, and you could of had Henry Cavill in it. You could have had Superman being rimmed.
Rewatching Greys Anatomy .
Santa Clarita Diet season 3 returns Friday!
Cannot wait. I love that damn show.
Im not sure any moment in season 2 eclipsed that one from the first season where she was sucking on the dude's finger and then just bit it off. But it was still good.
Amazing chemistry with the leads.
David Attenborough doc coming to next week, Sure it will be great as all his stuff tends to be.
Santa Clarita Diet is already fantastic 3 episodes in.
4 in.Santa Clarita Diet is already fantastic 3 episodes in.
I don't even binge shows but I'll have this knocked out by early next week.
Same.
7 done. I love this show!
Done TSCD
I took the night off last night so I would at least have a few left for tonight and tomorrow.Done TSCD
Started "Great News."
Has anyone watched any of this Love, Death and Robots trash? The art is (for the most part) really excellent and, in some cases, truly beautiful, but the content is just terrible. I can't imagine anyone besides "edgy" 14 year old boys enjoying it.
Yes. We liked most.
I think my main problem with it is that animated nudity/sex weirds me out, and there is ample animated nudity/sex in it.
Some of it was kinda odd.
I quite enjoyed a few of them. The "Good Hunting" one, the Yoghurt one and er maybe 1 or 2 others. A lot of them did nothing for me. Too many cartoon nipples
Considering signing back up to Netflix UK.
What best to watch right now? Was thinking new series of Narcos, Suits and Star Trek series.
Fucking Santa Clarita Diet is cancelled.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!Fucking Santa Clarita Diet is cancelled.
Yeah we were pretty destroyed here at casa de Planet as well. It looks like it was probably one of the most popular shows Netflix had but I guess they seem to have some sort of need to cancel everything after season three?
I think you should leave with Tim Robinson is WEIRD but also hilariously funny at bits
I noticed The Shield is on All4, is that worth getting into?
Never watched it, but I've only ever heard really good things about it. Like from anyone who's seen it.
Yes and I don't even like cop shows.
absolutely. a little slow in season 1 but yes
The wife and I just burned through 'Russian Doll' the past few nights. The 'Groundhog Day' type concept isn't anything new but it does some interesting stuff with it and it's pretty damn good. Definitely recommend.
I started the new season of Lucifer last night. Was surprised it was already out but so far so good. The show is a bit edgier and gorier now that it is on the flix and definitely helps it as a whole. The new cast member Eve is absolutely fantastic in every way and it will be interesting to see her forecoming heel turn.
Russian Doll was great!
Lucifer season 4 was great. Show definitely kicked up a notch after getting on Netflix. Let's hope it continues. Rewatched pilitvepisode and I must admit they had the characters pretty fleshed out from the get go.
I just finished Season 3. I really wish this would continue. My sister was especially heartbroken when she found out. We both signed some online petition she found to save the show but I doubt that will work. Such a great show with plenty of story to tell. It was just getting good!Fucking Santa Clarita Diet is cancelled.
