Finished up Stranger Things season 2 (Netflix Original)!

Amazing! I don't want to spoil anything, but it was a great season.

Netflix is really on fire as of late. There's like 4-5 Netflix Original series out now or in the next few weeks I want to see, and even a couple movies.

Black Sails is great indeed, i'm still waiting for the last season on my Netflix.

My favorite shows made by Netflix are: Stranger Things, Bojack Horseman, Mindhunter, Daredevil and Narcos. Not sure if Better Call Saul and Black Mirror are also exclusives, but both are amazing as well and it's also my favorite shows.

I still need to watch The Defenders, I loved Daredevil (Oh, Season 3 begins filming today) Luke Cage, I haven't seen Iron Fist yet and The Punisher is going to be so very epic, hurry up Nov 17th!

Jessica Jones!! I forgot I haven't seen that either.. There really needs to be more then 24 hours in a day, I work 10 hours then get home play some games for a couple hours or watch a few episodes of shows then off to bed.. I wish the Hyperbolic time chamber was real lol.. I booked off the 17th so I could binge watch The Punisher lol.

Amazon will produce The Lord of the Rings tv series, it's already confirmed.
They are not joking around to compete with HBO and Netflix.

@KratosMD I can understand the low score for Iron Fist. Iron Fist was delayed so many times, it was original planned to come out right after season 1 of Daredevil but kept getting pushed back. By the time it finally was released it was mediocre and it the delays seemed unwarranted.

@KratosMD I watched the trailer, it looks interesting, let's see.

I started to watch Dark, the first two episodes and i'm loving it already, another great tv show to follow. It's really great that Netflix is looking for shows in another countries, can't forget that they are always making animes with original voices.

Mindhunter is another great show created this year by Netflix, it's sad that the show is being snubbed by awards, imo.

I've been watching Inuyashiki Last Hero, which Amazon recommended after I finished Ronja. I wasn't sure what to expect as it sounded really weird, but it's excellent so far. The protagonist, Inuyashiki, is an middle-aged man who looks older than he is and is ignored by society and even his family. One day he is accidentally killed by a spaceship and then brought back to life as a robot. He's a great character and very kind to both people and animals. The theme tune is cool too. Anyhoo highly recommended!

I've heard that Netflix are making a Witcher TV series based on the books. I really hope they do it justice.

I'm watching Peaky Blinders for the first time, it's pretty awesome. It has four seasons already.

@PS_Nation Really enjoyed Peaky Blinders, but was a bit disappointed that another season was commissioned after the third as I thought that ended at a good point. Still wanna see the fourth though. Cillian Murphy is ace as is the rest of the cast and the Brummie accent always makes me chuckle.

I usually rotate between the 3 main streaming services (Netflix, NOW TV & Amazon Prime) and I'm currently using Netflix. I don't usually binge watch programs, usually just one or two episodes per week and I try to watch a few different shows at a time until I reach the end of the season. At the moment watching season 4 of Black Mirror. I like the sideways swipe at stuff like social media and politics and the pitch black humour.

@JohnnyShoulder Started the third season now, it's pretty awesome and Cillian Murphy really is a great actor, he deserves more leading roles on movies and tv shows. He is really great on Nolan movies, but I still hope he is the leading actor someday.

Black Mirror is really great as well, I only discovered recently when they added on Netflix. Already finished the fourth season. We don't have Now TV here in my country, I will check for more informations about it. I only have Netflix, Amazon (but it doesn't have much content in my country) and HBO on television.

@PS_Nation Only really use NOW tv for Game of thrones and to watch Premier League football. A few other good shows like The Night Of and Fortitude which i enjoyed. Not too fussed on the DC tv shows and prefer the Marvel stuff on Netflix.

I finally caught up and watched the first season of Westworld. I really liked it - some interesting themes, well explored. Also some great acting. A few twists were predictable but even so, well done. I think season 2 is coming in the first half of this year.

Are you guys excited for Altered Carbon? It's a new show made by Netflix with cyberpunk settings, it's coming on the next week already. It looks really interesting judging by the trailer. I love Blade Runner, so it's a must-watch for me, let's hope for a great show.

@KratosMD Not yet, I'm finishing some shows on Netflix first, but I want to start it soon.

Altered Carbon looks really good! And it's been getting some strong reviews from what I can see.

I've started watching Mindhunter on Netflix. Wasn't too keen on the first episode, but it clicked for me from the second episode. I like how one serial killer (or sequence killer as they call them) is so open and casual about the horrific things he has done. The chemistry is good between the two FBI agents, almost as good as Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson in season 1 of True Detective.

@JohnnyShoulder Mindhunter is so underrated imo, also many awards snubbed this show not mentioning the amazing acting. It's easily one of the best tv shows released last year. You can't go wrong with David Fincher.

@PS_Nation I didn't realise it missed out on some awards. Pfffft, what do they know?

@KratosMD Yeah watched Hannibal, one of the few TV series I've managed to stick with it and get through it all. You're right Mads is ace in it.

Manhunt: Unabomber is supposed to good too.
