Absolute genius. All round fantastic performances, classic fish out of water comedy but with a dark modern twist. Looking forward to season 3.

Well worth a pop....Argentinian
Man alive I've watched 1 1/2 episodes of The OA on Netflix.
I ain't got a clue what's going on:-

It's pretty good, I've seen it all, the final episode is not completely conclusive but still worth it.

sorry I have no idea.
That was good enough for me. I just watched the first episode on the strength of that effusive review.

For anyone not having viewed this before, it is an amazing, nay stunning 2 hours of work.

Ørnen.....half Icelandic, half Danish cop. Brill. Not exactly Björk meets Whigfield.

Enjoying The Path as mentioned above.
Stranger Things was amazing! Best bit of TV I've seen recently.
Started watching Shooter today, I'm 5 episodes in already. Great stuff.

Not much of a series watcher but have really enjoyed and would recommend Designated Survivor with Kiefer Sutherland in it on Netflix. Similar to House of Cards in many respects but just as enjoyable. One for the Political aficionados out there.

Completely agree and the theme tune catchy as hell!!!
Leah Reminisce, Scientology and the aftermath
Just wondered if anybody has watched any of this, seven episodes are available on kodi and I have watched them all. Quite amazing the things that Scientology get away with and nobody can or doesn't seem to want to stop it. Very good watch if you are into factual programmes, in my opinion anyway. Three more episodes to come.

Think Alain Delon does Tinker Tailor Spooks. Formidable.

Some 20 odd years after being acquitted of the murder of his high school sweetheart, businessman Aksel Borgen returns to his hometown to save an ailing local firm in this complex but powerful Norwegian drama.

If you like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia you'll like this.

Anyone watched Rectify?
It centres around the story of a man who is released from prison after spending 20 years on death row. Although DNA evidence has shown holes in the prosecutions case, some of the residents of his hometown still doubt his innocence.
I've just finished season 2 and I'm really enjoying it (there are 4 seasons in total). It's a bit of a slow burner but strangely compelling.
(edit- it sounds similar to the Norwegian drama mentioned above)

Backstrom on Netflix is very good.
They only did one series and it was pulled, I think it has a more European/English self deprecating sense of humour that the Americans have trouble with.
