Really didn't think I'd like it before I started but watched the trailer and it convinced me. The Marvelous Mrs Maisel on amazon. Very funny. Set in 1958. A jewish woman gets left by her bloke who has aspirations to be a stand up comic but he's totally s**t. She gets really boozed up and storms down to the place he normally performs, gets on the stage and brings the house down before getting arrested (this is 1958 haha!).

Would definitely recommend it. The woman was a regular on House of Cards.

@jonathan-mcdaid The Leftovers is one of the greatest things I have ever watched. Darkly weird and utterly phenomenal.

Martin

@neil-mallett I'll give better call Saul a go I think!

@ryan-carruthers The Saul Goodman series is on S5 now, it's called Better call Saul. The more you remember about Breaking Bad, the more you'll get out of BCS. It's all about how James McGill became Saul Goodman. There are loads of new characters but loads from BB. It's arguably better than BB but it would be nothing without it, so they compliment each other.

Action stuff on Amazon - Jack Ryan series 1 is very good, S2 I can't get into. Pretty good series called 'Taken', based on the main charachter from the films. The Expanse is action packed Sci-fi, good but I can't help cringing evertime one of the American characters says 'Eros', for some reason they say 'arrows' which makes my teeth itch. (it's probably just me though)
Hell on wheels, is great if you like some 'history' with your action.
I've yet to try 'Treadstone' because the reviews aren't great but I will get around to it sometime.

@john-folan struggled to get into the Mexico one a couple of episodes in does it get better as it goes?

Ryan

@neil-mallett I'll keep an eye out, I mean Breaking Bad was unreal wasn't it!!

I like Altered Carbon too and bloody loved The Witcher too!

Ryan

@john-folan I loved Narcos!! Amazing, haven't seen Chapo or the Mexican one yet will have a look.

John Folan

Narcos and then Narcos Mexico. I didn’t think they could top Narcos but they have.

One thing I got really into on Netflix, which I think is still on there is Sons of Anarchy. After the first few episodes I was hooked, I didn't think the spin off 'Mayans MC' was that great though.

Loved that . Not watched Mayans
