    Glued to stranger things....only on episode 4....10/10.

    Long Shot.

    True crime documentary.
    Just 40mins long.
    (Larry David fans will enjoy it also. Watch to see why :))

    Best thing I've seen in ages.

    3% definitely

    Also watch it subbed, NOT dubbed

    Godless is excellent, really wish there was more of it.

    Safe as also good.

    The Killing (US version) was very good too, but it seems to be gone from Netflix now.

    The Sinner - decent.

    I watched one whole season of that "The Shooter" Netflix original. Don't bother, just typical cheesy American soldier propaganda.

    Neither of which are on the Irish Netflix although the guy that directed Oculus, which is great, is the guy behind Haunting of Hill House.

    The actor that plays one of the ghosts in Oculus is the same actor that plays Theo, I thought she was brillint in Haunting of Hill House but has no lines at all in Oculus.

    The sinner is good , really strong acting and lovely plot twists and turns, really keeps you interested throughout, but it sets itself up for a far more dramatic and memorable ending than what we were given. Its sad because it was such a well made show but the feeling you have at the very end is one of bit of a letdown/disappointment

    Anyone mention American Vandal yet?

    Yeah one person did. It's just been cancelled, and yet both seasons got universal critical acclaim.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,298 ✭✭✭DareGod


    Ozark is incredible.

    The Sinner first season. I gave up half way through the second season (which is an entirely separate story to the first season) though as it wasn't doing it for me at all.

    Suburra: Blood on Rome

    Dunno if its been mentioned, but theres an australian show called 'Rake' thats well worth a look.
    Its about an alcoholic, womanising barrister and how he bends the rules to suit himself. the newest season (5) has just been added too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,048 ✭✭✭brilou23


    Autopsy of Jane doe is perfect for tonight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,803 ✭✭✭el diablo


    Animal Kingdom (TV series not the movie). Not sure if it's on Irish Netflix though.

    Orange pilled.

    You lured me in with mention of Larry David .... good documentary.

    If you don't mind subtitles:

    'Borderliner' (Norwegian)is excellent.
    'The Forest' (French) is great with lots of twists.
    'La Mante' (Also French) is clever serial killer stuff.

    Non subtitles:

    I thought 'Alias Grace' was very good but it wouldn't be for everyone.
    'Episodes' is fun and easy to watch as is 'The Good Place'.
    'Power' is ok. Gets better as it goes on. First few seasons are just one long cringey rap / R and B video :)
    Unabomber is quite good.
    People Vs OJ was very well done.
    Comedians in cars getting coffee. I love this but then I love Jerry Seinfeld. Quick lil 12-16 min episodes. Perfect for the morning green tea!
    If Brooklyn Nine -Nine is considered 'Hidden' then this also. Once you learn the characters it's gas. So easy to watch. :)

    That's all I can think of for now. Thanks for the recommendations guys.

    Big Mouth is one of the funniest, most relatable shows I've watched in years.

    It's an animation about a group of 12 year olds going through puberty. It's so stupid.l but there's so many times where you think 'yeah, that was me'.

    It's extremely vulgar though so if thats not your thing I wouldn't recommend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 657 ✭✭✭irishash


    6 eps into the "Haunting of Hill House" - Excellent "loose" adaptation of the novel (it just takes the core elements) with high production values and a director (Mike Flanagan) who gets how to make a creepy movie/tv series. Same director wrote/directed "oculus", "Hush" and "Geralds Game" among others. Highly recommended.

    Same director is making the sequel (to the book) of the Shinning - Doctor Sleep.

    Den of Thieves is a decent action movie.

    While it does have it's flaws, it's still well worth a watch.
