What's on Netflix

I don’t know about living next door! but I thought she’s the nicest person in the street (and beyond).

French mini series, weird, amusing, compelling …

Under A Dark Sun

I watched Back To Black yesterday, the Amy Winehouse biographical film. Very sad story. The music industry definitely lost a great talent, she had a spectacular, powerful voice.

Back to Black doesn’t seem to be showing in the UK any more. :neutral_face:

Just Started a Spanish Series called The Crystal Cuckoo, hmm might stick with it.

Just finished a Korean series called As You Stood By, really enjoyed it.

Don’t know why the vid is not in English and don’t know why the ciggie is blurred out

Such a talent but such a tragic life and death.

The Beast In Me

loving this

Me too although had to switch off the other day because there was a scene where I was worried about the dog. Why is there always a lovely dog in these psychological thrillers

I really enjoyed The Beast In Me … very well done.

I’ve just discovered Mr Mercedes … looking good. Three series, 30 episodes in all. Based on Stephen King books.

Several years ago I had Netflix, but stopped paying for it, as it had so little good quality programming on it. I swapped to the old Britbox channel & found that so much better. Sadly that has now vanished.

I agree that it’s probably not good value these days, but it’s difficult to know what’s a good alternative. A lot of programmes are already available on free to stream British TV channels such as Iplayer etc.

I sometimes feel the same, then some good stuff appears, and I forget how horrid and frustrating Netflix can be. Currently I am overwhelmed with watchable stuff because I went without it altogether for a few months earlier this year.

I rewatched Ground Hog Day, I never get tired of watching this film, so many really funny moments, it’s just brilliant!

I am enjoying The Beast in Me so far and surprisingly Special Ops Lioness

Was very disturbed to see that Parenthood is disappearing in early December. I have been watching one or two episodes a week so am only up to series 2, it is a quiet, gentle series but very entertaining with good characters, I doubt I will see it all before is vanishes.

I have to clean up my “Continue Watching” list as there are a couple of series that I have abandoned which still leer at me.

Can’t wait for another series of Riot Women and The Diplomat but I think Professor T has run its course, the last series was very disappointing.

(not all of those are on Netflix)

that’s a shame. I watched it all a while ago and it’s very good.

We have all six seasons of Parenthood available on Netflix, I’ve seen them all, definitely on my “favourites list”. I started watching The Diplomat but then left it as I was getting bored.

There are some nasty violent scenes, bad sex, incest, which is all a bit unfortunate. We’ve decided to drop it halfway through the first series. Has anyone else tried it? Is S2 and/or S3 less, erm, dark.

We are gonna watch Man on the Inside Season 2 :heavy_check_mark:

We abandoned it after the first few minutes, can’t really remember why, just a bit noisy and hectic maybe. Too late to give it another go now.

fun fact :Mary Steenburgen (Mona) and Ted Danson (Charles) have been real life married for 30 years
