Started watching Norsemen, bloody hell,! have been pissing myself at it.
Episode 1 and the stty finger in the slaves mouth had me in bits and set the standard lol. Well worth a watch.
Also started watching it on Friday, and loved it - even though I'd seen it was a comedy on here, it still wasn't what I expected. Really funny.Episode 1 and the stty finger in the slaves mouth had me in bits and set the standard lol. Well worth a watch.
I've done Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Ozark, Suits, House of Cards, Designated Survivor, Shooter and many more like it and currently getting into The Sinner... says a lot about me I guess.
But my current watch whilst working late is The Windsors... I'm only up to S1 E4, but so many chuckle moments.

Are there any detective type series' that take 2-3 hours/episodes to conclude each case? Similar to A Touch of Frost, Cracker, Rebus, Waking the Dead etc. A whole series on one crime seems a bit much, and an hour or so not enough.. although open to a long winded affair if particularly good. Sinner perhaps?
I've not been using Netflix for long, currently most of the way through Mindhunter, which I am quite enjoying and decided to give Luther a go which is alright but a bit quick to conclude.

Not sure if Line of Duty is on Netflix but that fits the billI've not been using Netflix for long, currently most of the way through Mindhunter, which I am quite enjoying and decided to give Luther a go which is alright but a bit quick to conclude.
Bosch (Amazon admittedly)
True Detective (S1, S2 is st)
Manhunt Unabomber
If you want true crime Evil Genius, The Staircase and Making a Murderer are all worth a watch too

I've just started watching Damnation. Premiered last year I think but I forgot about it. Really enjoying it.
Just started watching the 1st episode and 5 minutes in see a guy waving a 9mm automatic gun which wasn't invented in the time the film is set in. But otherwise seems worth a watch. anonymous said:

I might have a look at Line of Duty.Unabomber is watchable, it's one long story but it moves at a reasonable pace. Cut from the same cloth as Mindhunter but without the finesse.
Unrelated but I've just finished the second series of Salvation. I think they ended it well, I'm sure there will be a third series but if they didn't for some reason I think it still stands up pretty well. Typical formulaic stuff but it held my interest. But I cannot for the life of me work out what accent Nicholas Tanz is supposed to have - I've heard him do Australian, American Midwest, Irish, British and shades of Russian. Any of those work for a villain; mixing them all however doesn't.

Just on about episode 8 of Narcos Mexico. Can't say I've been overly impressed and have nodded off occasionally. Pity.
I set aside a weekend to binge it when it came out as I loved the first three seasons. I've been half way ep 5 for two weeks now and just can't be bothered to get back into it despite several attempts.ben5575 said:

Which is really weird as John Noble is a great actor normally
