I'd second this - well worth a watch.

Now's a good time to reacquaint yourself with Twin Peaks as the new series is only four weeks away.
Unless you've watched the excellent Vikings which knocks The Last Kingdom, a market stall rip-off of Vikings, into a cocked hat. I enjoyed TLK until it basically started re-filming Vikings scene for scene. I honestly don't know how they got away with it.
My recommendations?

Both British crime thrillers, both excellent. Both on iplayer I believe.
And Black Sails. Piratey, high seas brilliance.
Just finished 13 reasons why. A real american high school thing but I thought it was great. Other series I have loved:
Breaking bad
Better call Saul
Mad Men
Narcos
Entourage
Controversial I know but the one I cannot get into (I have tried a few times) is Game of Thrones.

Have you seen Making a murderer? fantastic documentary about a guy in USA who was convicted of murder, goes through how the police found evidence/built case etc, and shows frankly how you can be framed for almost anything

Other half got this. Up to episode 3 and not sure I'm going to last till the end. Does it improve? Not much seems to have happened.

Assuming you are referring to the affair I would stick with it. There are a lot of these series that take time to establish the characters and the plot. Equally it may just not be your cup of tea.

I actually thought TLK was as good as Vikings which I think completely lost the plot when it went all trippy in the third season. Havent watched the last one yet.

People Just do nothing > 3 series
2 on Netflix and 3rd in on the Beeb - it's a really funny mockumentary set in London around a pirate radio station, give it a chance it's brilliant!!!!
and if you get a chance to see them live you should Kurupt FM staying in character doing their thing @ a festival near you

Currently knocking our way through Mad Men again, brilliant tv show 
I loved Designated Survivor.
I thought it was going to be an anti climax after the amazing Breaking Bad & House of Cards.
Narcos was good, as was El Chapo.

Loved Grimm on Netflix and just started Orphan Black which I think is simply outstanding, fast paced with lots of shocks and surprises. The lead gives an amazing performance as a multiple of characters which interact and are all believable.
