    Netflix series recomendations

    What series do you recommend?


    Marco Polo - I stumbled upon this earlier this week....took me 4 days to 10 episodes + the single show about the monk. (Watch the monk one first).

    House of Cards - Spacey's accent is difficult to enjoy.

    Narcos - Fantastic.

    I couldn't get into Gotham or Daredevil....OITNB started too slow for me.

    What'cha got?

    Wrong forum, jong!

    Seriously, there's a huge thread in the movies/music/books forum.

    I think the OP is talking about Netflix exclusive series, not just series that can be watched on netflix which is what the other thread is about.

    This /\/\/\/\/\ WTF has happend to this place?
    People should learn endurance; they should learn to endure the discomforts of heat and cold, hunger and thirst; they should learn to be patient when receiving abuse and scorn; for it is the practice of endurance that quenches the fire of worldly passions which is burning up their bodies.

    Not a series but Beasts of No Nation was one of those that just makes you go "holy shit". Idris Elba is chilling, can't believe he didn't get at least nominated for that.

    Concur on Narcos and Marco Polo, and I had the same issue with House of Cards even though I love the premise.

    Chef's Table is pretty interesting too. Very well done.

    This is most definitely the correct forum. Keep it in the PR. Boycott those sub-forums.

    agree....but then again House of Cards is HBO.

    Maybe it should/could be moved to the other forum.

    I'll wear the "jong" label proud.....it's been a while.

    I'm also looking for a series...and not just one show/episode/movie.

    Thought Bloodline was great. Can't wait for the next season.

    Same goes for Chef's Table.

    Moving a non-politics thread from the padded room doesn't make much sense. But there's a better discussion in the other thread, just sayin', regardless of riser3's whining.

    ???

    1st season of Jessica Jones is pretty good, even if you don't like the other Marvel stuff. I liked the first couple seasons of OITNB but the 3rd is kind of meh. Same for House of Cards. Working my way through Bloodline, like it so far but not enough to binge watch (like seeing Coach and Lindsey in other roles though). Marco Polo, Narcos, Making a Murderer, Master of None, and Sense8 are all on the to-watch list.

    If you dig food travel then the Bourdain's Parts Unknown series is pretty fun to watch. I think they have 3 or 4 seasons of it on Netflix right now.

    It's not. Maybe you're thinking of Game of Thrones?

    First 3-4 seasons were good but then it really fell off.

    First two seasons were great, but I thought the third season sucked.

    I thought Bloodline was boring and depressing, but I get the feeling that many would disagree with me. Great acting and cinematography though.

    I think all the best Netflix Originals have been listed so far.

    Hell on Wheels is pretty entertaining.

    Isn't Daredevil a Netflix original? It's pretty good.
