Very very good series if a little uncomfortable, at times. My best for the year so far.

yeah only 3 or 4 eps in and bloody hell its dark.

probably because its not that far fetched

The Keepers. Hard to watch and just made me angry the whole time

Upto ep 8 of Ozark

Thoroughly enjoying it. One of the better series' ive seen.

I finished episodes 6 &7 of Ozark last night
This series has been well thought out with the flashback episode bringing it all together (and we get to see what happened with an extra set of eyes )
Looking forward to episode 8 tonight

Jason Bateman does such a good job playing a straight role, didn't think he could do drama. Marty Byrde is a very interesting character, he has shades of Walter White's and Michael Corleone's stone cold-ness.

Also, season 2 has just been commissioned by Netflix:

Been watching "Suits"

Would love to be the meat in a Rachel and Donna sandwich

I watched the first two episodes of The Defenders tonight and it looks the goods! Hoping to finish the eight episodes this weekend.

I was stuck in Sydney airport for 6 hours yesterday
Cheers for free wifi. I finished Ozark!
That was an interesting end!

After watching Rick and Morty, Netflix suggested we watch White Gold.

Its an English comedy series starring two of the guys from The Inbetweeners, about window salesman in the early 80's.

We didn't think it'd be that good, but after three episodes, we're hooked.

We checked out a couple of episodes of "White Gold" last night. Not bad, but not great either IMHO. Great 80s soundtrack though, worth a squiz just for that.

We decided to 'tune in' to SBS On Demand and started to check out "The Good Fight", which is a 10 episode follow-up to the "The Good Wife." Not bad after the first episode, looking forward to how it unfurls.

The "dogging" part had the Mrs in tears. Some bits are slow, but it's a good show to tune out to.

Yeah, that scene was pretty funny.

Eddie Murphy 'Raw', still as funny as when I first saw it many many moons ago.

Just finished watching this a few days ago, perhaps the pick of all three seasons. Ewan McGregor's performance as two brothers who dislike each other is very, very impressive. And he pretty much nails the Minnesota accent, not bad for someone with a think Scotch accent. And the bad guy is pretty damn sinister. And there's a cool link to season 1 (I think) as well.

Agree McGregor plays good roles, Mary Elizabeth Winstead is gorgeous, also a couple of actors from Boardwalk Empire in this season

Had a big weekend away with the lads on the cans on the weekend and had yesterday on the lounge recovering.

Got through 5 episodes of Narcos Season 3, could have probably knocked the last 5 over if not for complaints from the women folk.

Another ripping series.

Indeed, Narcos is the exception to the law of diminishing returns. Still top quality stuff. And I can't get that Latin theme music out of my head.

I usually get on tv series very late, which isn't always a bad thing because it means i don't have to wait each week for new episodes

just started watching prison break, around 12 episodes in i think.
first episode i wasn't 100% sold, the acting didn't do it for me for some reason

but now i am hooked, watching 2-3 episodes most nights.

I'm watching Glow at the moment, which is very enjoyable. It's about a women's wrestling troupe in the 80s.
Glow has a very similar story arc to OITNB - unsurprising given it's created by the same folk.
It features an ensemble cast of ladies, the storyline is about empowering women but still with the need for them to take their tops off. The lead actor is annoying/endearing in unequal parts.
I'm enjoying it, but if you didn't like OITNB, you may not like this.
