    Not sure that applies to the situations i was watching last night. Will keep an eye out in future episodes. I've googled it and there's nothing about it.

    Were they playing chess?

    Watch it and see! :P

    Watched the first two episodes back-to-back last night and wanted to watch a third but it was too late, which is usually a good sign for me that it's going to be a good show. It can get confusing jumping back and forth 20 years especially when the characters don't seem to age appropriately.

    A classic.

    The Final Girls added today.

    Haven't seen it but have been wanting to. It's a sort of comedy horror but more of an homage to slasher films. A young girl and her friends are transported into an 80s B movie staring a younger version of her recently deceased mother.

    I've just watched the first episode of this, and it looks promising, is it worth continuing with?

    If you are enjoying it, do you need others to approve it in order to continue watching?

    My best of 2016 is Stranger Things & Fargo Season 2.. if anyone has similar recommendations based on the quality of these 2 I would love to hear them.

    There's not much on Netflix to match the quality of Fargo IMO but check out Peaky Blinders if you haven't seen that yet. 2 of 3 seasons on Netflix.

    I recommend them all the time but Happy Valley and River are two very high quality shows. Stylistically different to the ones you mention but as you specified quality those are the two I'd recommend.

    Is this definitely on Irish Netflix? Went to add it there and can't find it.

    Balls. Just checked myself and it's not there either. It's listed here https://uk.newonnetflix.info so hopefully it will be added at some point today.

    EDIT: If you type in Nina Dobrev into search instead of the film title it comes up in the results. Weird.

    Ah cheers! Maybe it take a few hours to propagate to all catalogues.

    Big fan of "Shetland." Great show, and the scenery looks a lot like Kerry :) Unfortunately only 1 season so far.

    I've watched a couple of episodes now, wouldn't really recommend it.

    Ajin - Demi-Human

    It's an excellent adaptation of a graphic novel. Wouldn't be a huge manga watcher but it's very exciting and good cartoons are always fun to watch.

    Black Sunday

    Based on a Thomas Harris novel, directed by John Frankenheimer. Taut thriller about an attempted terrorist attack at an NFL Super Bowl.

    It's a bit overlong but still a pretty good 70s thriller
