Netflix - What gems have you found?

I loved Sons of Anarchy. I'd never heard about it before I saw it on Netflix!

First series was great - then for some reason all the characters changed behaviour for the second season. There is no way any of the characters from the first season would have put up with that st.

Got boring IMO.

Knights of Sidonia is a pretty good anime thats a welcome new addition.

Think they currently have EVERY Stargate in all its different incantations. Original, Atlantis, Universe.

Still working through Lie To Me.

When did they get rid of the "last chance" menu?

Justified. Really enjoyed it, hoping the next series comes along to Netflix soon.

Currently watching BoJack Horseman, quite liking it so far. Some clever touches although it's probably even funnier if (unlike me) you've half an idea about American celebrity culture!

Latest Jim Jeffries standup show came on Netflix US on Friday. Same show he played in UK a few weeks ago. Very funny...

Just noticed it's on UK region too. It's called 'Bare'...

Trailer Park Boys is amazing and really lends itself to the Netflix binge-watching style that I like to do. Done the first two seasons now. Knock knock.

I love Trailer Park Boys.

"Why're you always driving cheeseburgers into that thing?"
"I only eat chicken burgers!"
"That's a fking lie, I've seen you drive 15 cheeseburgers into that thing in one go!"

I have started watching Trailer Park Boys after seeing both your posts. Half way through the first ep I wondered "What the hell" but now, I can't stopp watching the thing. It is fantastic.

"Nobody wants to admit they ate 9 cans of ravioli!"

Conky freaks me the hell out. Heard on FB that Season 8 will be available on 5th September on Netflix worldwide

I watched the first episode after reading in one of the papers that if you enjoyed Breaking Bad you'll enjoy this. I didn't.

Over stylised, cliched and based on a ludicrous premise (Good looking hero, broody looking under a big hat, beats the bad guys to the draw and kills them when he thinks it's 'justified')

All IMO, but I won't be watching any more episodes.

Perhaps contrary to most, I'm quite enjoying Justified but could never get on board with Breaking Bad. I think the format may have worked better watching an episode per week rather than a total binge like I did, though.

added trailer park boys to the list.

The Prestige

Just brilliant, but you have to pay attention

Quite an accurate summary, but I liked it nonetheless!

Generation War has just been added.

German version of Band of Brothers, with subtitles.
Very good and very bold for the Germans producing it in an unflinching manner (prisoners shot, genocide,etc)

[Badabing]

How to be a man - Worth a watch.

On the basis of your post I just watched the first one and enjoyed it very much.

Looking forward to watching the rest of the series so cheers.

Just spotted Love The Beast in recently added, and put it on my list.

Hadn't heard of that, will definitely be having a look now!

Excellent news. I caught the first one, then missed the rest.

My youngest, 8, is always watching a show called How I Met your Mother on one of the Channel 4s. I saw a couple but had to profess to not really following what was going on but then I noticed that it is on US Netflix.

Watched S1 episodes 1 to 14 back to back last Sunday and now I'm hooked. Has to be watched in sequence.

Also I don't think my 8 year old should be watching it.
