    The Versace one is getting more interesting. Mental story. So much I didn't know. How was it not on the news more?

    Abducted in Plain Sight - The whole family annoyed me. Bunch of cry babies lying through their teeth. The only likeable person in the doc was the old FBI guy.

    People who fell for the original Mormons weren’t the brightest, maybe this is genetic.

    Just started with netflix last december and I have found a great way to pass an evening. Spend 2 hours scrolling through all the programmes without been able to decide on anything, by then it is too late to start anything.
    Am I the only one... too much choice has its downsides.

    Watch list .
    When some recommends something add it to your watch list

    I didn't even know he was murdered Mam so it's all new to me!!

    First episode was a bit slow but the second episode I'm like WTAF???

    More at the murderer than Versace.

    Russian Doll - pleasantly surprised by this. When I started the first episode, I immediately didn't like it, the carefree-hippy-millenial-newyorker thing grinded my gears. But I persisted and happy I did, it gets very interesting.

    It's a slow burner alright. The first episode or 2 I thought it was just alright but after that it's very interesting and unpredictable.

    This film looks decent. The film title is woeful though - it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue.

    Yeah, I think it was the start of Ep 3 or 4 after the
    lift incident
    which was a pretty big moment which sucked me in.

    A woman is at her birthday party, the night unfolds and she dies.
    He life then reboots at the same party and she can re-live the night again....until she dies. This repeats and she is trying to figure out why it's happening.

    I already saw this in cinema. It’s called ‘Happy death day’. And now it’s sequel is out in cinema, ‘Happy death day 2U’. Who needs Russian Dolls??

    I've also seen Groundhog Day but still enjoyed Russian Doll.

    A cynical young woman in New York City keeps dying and returning to the party that's being thrown in her honor on that same evening. She tries to find a way out of this strange time loop.

    Sex education is a load of horse**** i hate the American feel to it even though its set in the UK, I couldn't go beyond the first episode

    I'm not 10 years old, nor do I post opinions online like a 10 year old, but I definitely enjoyed Sex Education.

    I agree and I've deleted the insult, it wasn't my intention

    You're not really giving a series a chance if you don't go beyond the first episode. I dare you to chance the second one ;) It gets better!

    Watched first two episodes of "American horror story" and they were weird but I enjoyed it.

    Not sure my wife is sold on it but hopefully its like breaking bad where if you persevere its worth it.

    Which series?


    I found them very variable in quality but really enjoyed a couple of them

    Regarding Sex Educatiin, it is an easy watch and enjoyable also.

    Russian Doll- most interesting and you do need to persevere beyond the first 2 episodes, good show.

    It’s hit and miss, some great seasons some not so good.
    Season 1 and 2 are excellent. 4 (freak show) and 6 (Roanoke) are very good.
    3 (witches) and 5 (Hotel) is ok.
    7 (trump) is bad and 8 (Antichrist) is terrible.
