i discovered something old that i had never seen before...one episode in and i'm hooked. It's called Party Down.
-
Great suggestions all -
But Narcos:Mexico Season 2 dropped last night. So I'm good for the weekend.
-
Man in the High Castle
Bloodline
Black Mirror
Californication
Party Down is great
one thing I did a few years ago was watch a few old series:
Twilight Zone
Outer Limits, old and new (The new version had tits and ass!)

Disagree about Lizzy, but wholeheartedly agree on the rest. I'm halfway through season 4 and am about to throw in the towel.chuck said:
I couldn't put my finger on exactly why, but I drifted away from Blacklist. I always had a hard time with Lizzy. She never developed into a consistent character. I also think the actress sucks and the character is immature and impulsive. Shes not even close to being a strong lead.DerekJohnson said:I have been enjoying The Blacklist. But they have bad guys who are largely caricatures and absurd. (Solomon was an awesome bad guy though).
The other part that has jumped the shark in Season 4 is when the female agent gets mad that she is making 32% less than her male counterpart. I was disappointed that they were trying to politicize this at the expense of the show. Also, there is no way that she was making that much less than him unless he has been on the job for many years more than her. It took me out of the show, just ridiculous.
They also seemed to really start struggling to keep a strong, coherent story arc and episodes started feeling like they were thrown together. Too bad. I still get a kick out of James Spader. -

I've caught bits of that show when someone else was watching. The parts I saw were pretty damn funny. Those two old characters are great on screen together. Captain Kirk is almost always good for a laugh from me, and I've been a Spader fan since the 80s.Doog_de_Jour said:
Speaking of James Spader (who I agree is fabulous) I really recommend the series Boston Legal to anyone who hasn’t seen it:chuck said:

It is an acquired taste, as it’s a little absurd, kitschy and frequently breaks the forth wall. However it’s really well acted and written IMO. I imagine it’s how a HCH law firm would be (Creepy Stalin Bannon & Associates, LLC).
Then he did a movie with Rob Lowe where Spader was the mark and Lowe was the sociopath who ruined his life
The only reason to watch Blacklist is Spader. We're in like year 7 of discovering the secret of who the daddy is and I simply don't give a shit anymore
Lowe is now in a 9-11 show on FOX -
I stumbled across this, it's really good. Binged on it for two nights.
https://www.netflix.com/title/80153467
"Unbelievable"
it's about 8 episodes long, one shot deal miniseries. very well acted, good story. It has an underlying message about the handling of rapes but it's not overt, heavy handed, bash you over the head type of thing. Incredibly well done.
Another one we binged on was "You" on netflix. If you liked Dexter, this is similar. It's good, holds your attention, easy to watch ... it's just good. Give it a shot.
Someone mentioned this one in another thread so we checked it out, threw it on to try it and wound up binging for a few days. Do it. -
You just like her tits, which is understandable. They do hint at showing them a few times, which temporarily redeemed her.DerekJohnson said:

The Outsider on HBO has been fantastic so far. Directed by and starring Jason Bateman. It's a classic Stephen King slow, suspenseful burn, with a very True Detective S1 feel to it. One of the few HBO shows with no tits though, so be warned.

I don't watch that show but did a bing image/video search. That gal has some nice knockers. And a sex tape.chuck said:

Found McMillions on HBO. Crazy crime scam on fraud in their Monopoly game that went on for 20 years or so. Love the rogue FBI agent guy. Good character.

Did it make you think and care?DerekJohnson said:
This is a movie, but the Chinese film Us and Them is really good. It's a long movie that requires patience, but I thought it was very thought-provoking.PurpleThrobber said:...and it was glorious. So in my free time, I need some new Netflix/Prime/Hulu options.....
Hit me with some obscure shit. Preferably series over movies. I've consumed a boatload of content but Mrs. Throbber v2.0 demands more. (commence with the appropriate reply to that softball). -
You’ve probably already watched but Dexter is good. So is Luther. Both a few years old now, but good series. More current, The Outsider on HBO is solid. Also Ozark is pretty great.

Wife was really into Dexter. I watched with her. I could never get over how absolutely terribly written and acted the sister was. The concept was good, the first few seasons were great, it REALLY jumped the shark after... can't remember how many seasons.spuden said:You’ve probably already watched but Dexter is good.

I’ve lost friends telling them how much I hate Dexter. What a piece of shit that show was. I don’t care anymore, obviously, but when it was rolling and people kept saying it was the best show in TV I felt like I was taking crazy pills. The Wire AND The Sopranos were still going and people thought mother fucking DEXTER was better.

I suggest you bing image search "Julie Benz nude". Quite possibly the perfect woman.
Dumb as a rock in the show. Show jumped the shark in later seasons....but, OMG.....dem tittays.

Its tough to maintain most shows. The whole serial killer with a code thing was fun for a season. Then it became tedious and annoying.
As far as later seasons I enjoyed this one the most

In Handmaiden's Tale....not so much. #drab

I thought it was a solid show. Not up there with the GOAts however. I won’t make you die on a hill fighting me over Dex.ThomasFremont said:I’ve lost friends telling them how much I hate Dexter.

Yvonne gets me going

Altered carbon v2 is good. Arguably better overall. But altered carbon is my all time favorite book and I love noir detective shit so it can't compare

Mindhunter and Ozark
