I'm not sure if it has been mentioned, but I've been dipping in and out of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Don't understand how I missed it previously, brilliant show.
Probably too busy doing Charlie Work.
Probably my favourite ever TV show. Lethal Weapon 2 up there with my favourite episodes.

That and the episode from Frank's POV!

He was the best thing in Daredevil so I think this is on the list.

Started watching Santa Clarita Diet at the weekend and rather enjoying it so far. Up to episode 7 already and some proper laugh out loud moments and quite a bit of gore. If you enjoyed Dexter you'll probably like this . Good cast also with Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olephant.

Started to watch Season 4 of The 100 - its taken me a while to start watching Season 4 after 3 finished - just found it a bit "repetitive".

Also up to date on Season 4 of The Last Ship - seem to really enjoy this despite is being "repetitive"

Not sure they are on Netflix, but both are worth a watch.

Had a sickness bug so spent a full day on the couch yesterday, watched all 3 seasons of Toast of London, Surreal comedy with many laugh out load moments for me, Probably not for everyone but I really enjoyed it smile

Travellers... people come back from the future and inhabit the bodies of people about to die, so they can change their dystopian future.
S2 due soon too.

just heard Designated Survivor season 2 is now on Netflix.
It is indeed, I watched episode 1 last night. What's-her-name has gone and there's a new (annoying) character. Plus more outlandish plot and awful CGI explosions.

I lasted about 5 episodes before I realised just how bad it really was.

The Good Place..

A light comedy about where a woman ends up after dying - some laugh out loud moments- one really annoying character but other than that some easy viewing that I am quite enjoying..
Really enjoying this - up to episode 5.
Classic binge watching material.
Oh yes! Found it yesterday at around 7pm and watched the first 5 back-to-back!
Stuck this on last night after the positive comments here.

So much better than I expected. Good show.
It's written by the guy who did Brooklyn 99 iirc so no surprise it's good smile

I watched series 1 gave up after one episode then watched the rest later on due to all the great reviews. It is rubbish but I quite liked it oddly.

Well I'll chuck in a contrary opinion. I'm rewatching the first series and still enjoying it second time around. It's cheesy, a bit over the top and falls nicely into that 'brain off but don't fall asleep' category of programme.

I don't mind cheesy and slightly OTT shows as long as they aren't pretending to be something else.

Oh, Thingo Hookstratten. Can't remember the first name - Candy, Candice or something?

Loved it when I first watched it and, somehow, I've somehow got the missus on board as well smile

I thought it was dire. Sutherland is king of the mumblers, and the only thing worth watching was Natash McElhone. And she was hardly in it.

He sounds like he's using someone else's teeth. Its well beyond a bit of mumbling.
