Netflix Watch Instantly Recommendation Thread

yeah Hilda is so well done

Just watched S2E1 of Dark - what a way to end an opening episode. Despite watching a youtube season 1 recap i couldn't remember who half the characters were, but by the end i was extremely desirous that this shit be directly injected into my veins.

This site was a great help whilst watching:

xps We've watched Hilda and very much enjoyed it

Then got them to watch Over The Garden Wall which they loved too

we watched and loved steven universe as a family but that's on hulu or cartoon network not netflix

it is on Hulu! i think a season behind.
also the last season's on the Cartoon Network app (though you probably only have access if you're already on cable)

Over the Garden Wall is incredible.

Been watching Blown Away, it's pretty good. More intense than the GB shows (bake off, pottery throwdown, sewing bee); partly because it's just a more intense discipline, partly because the contestants are more experienced and can push the envelope more, but also partly because lol americans. I kind of miss the multiple challenges format but at least the eps are short and you can zip through it all pretty quickly.

Yeah, the hardcore Iron-Chefness of it is a bit wearing when you're used to the gentler pace of the British shows.

Finally watched the OJ Sompson series. Found out it wasn’t Kato driving the Bronco. Lol

uh

Orlando Joomps Sompson

I like this Blown Away show. Good call. I appreciate how snappy the episodes are.

Although whenever they say "good morning, glassblowers" I change it into "good morning, cakesniffers."

I love how they just front out all the double entendres, too. Yes, it's a glory hole.

I love Deborah. I want to watch a show about 24 hours in her life.

RIght? She got VERY media savvy about halfway through and realized her persona was going to help her win this and went through an attitude shift. Never seen anyone do that on a reality show before, much respect.
her animal foot collection is dope: http://www.deborahczeresko.com/stampede.html

you know what: Good Morning Glass Blowers! - Blown Away: The Netflix Art Reality Show

Holy fuck at Another Life

holy fuck good or holy fuck bad?

i'm enjoying it one and a bit eps in: the earth bits are currently boring but i like william as the ship's alexa

is it good? it looked interesting and the reviews are awful.

weeeeell, what i "enjoy" is not always necessarily good :)

it's a bit like the core in space

Secret Obsession was very disappointing even by the trashy movie metric.

xps It's awful but kind of watchable and makes absolutely zero sense. The crew appear to have come straight from Love Island rather than an elite NASA training programme (although Love Island contestants are more intelligent) and despite a few comments along the lines of payload weight restrictions they seem to have about 3,000 hibernating crew members in reserve.

The depressing thing will be if this gets another season when Netflix are cancelling amazing (but less mainstream) shows like Tuca & Bertie. Think someone mentioned upthread that Netflix's new MO is to churn out new content every single week and I guess this fits that model but doesn't bode well for the future.

i'm not enjoying it less yet

"another life": is the netflix scifi series good or bad? EXPERTS DIFFER!!

Just watched S2E1 of Dark - what a way to end an opening episode. Despite watching a youtube season 1 recap i couldn't remember who half the characters were, but by the end i was extremely desirous that this shit be directly injected into my veins.

Don't ignore the dedicated thread!

Dark: the German Netflix series that's like an amalgamation of Twin Peaks, Back to the Future, and X-Files (SPOILERS!)

I'm now trying El Ministerio del Tiempo (Spanish time travel silliness) but due to life it's taken me two days to watch half an hour so nothing to report yet. I'm removing Another Life from my list!

I actually had forgotten about that thread, because I'd been avoiding it till we finished watching the show.

"Another Life" - what if we made Alien but boring

Is there not a When They See Us thread? It might be a bit too late to start one.

"Another Life" - what if we made Alien but boring

They already did this, but it was just called "Life" then.

Ugh I need something to watch.

I am enjoying Trinkets. I am into this PNW/K records/shoplifters unite vibe.

erika: Good Morning Glass Blowers! - Blown Away: The Netflix Art Reality Show

New season of She-Ra, which is pretty good if that’s your thing.

new Derry Girls season is out, first one was funny in our estimation

The third season of Dear White People got a little meta but is pretty good still.

I finally started watching Ozark. Then I looked at the Ozark thread and everyone hates it there. Is that a commonly held opinion? I'm finding it diverting and amusing enough.

The second season is way worse. I am not bothering with the 3rd.

And I feel bad about Jason Bateman's buttshot.

I couldnt get through 2 episodes of it. cant remember why i hated it now.

I thought it was ok, but can't remember much about season two

The Netflix corporate motto.

there are a whole series of jokes on Dear White People about the 'third season of a Netflix show'.

lol milo otm

Frankly I watch almost every Netflix show in binges while high on the couch with my dog and therefore only see and retain one out of every four episodes

Lol that was exactly what I did until I moved somewhere where I have no idea how to get weed. Anyway I will watch the recent suggestions!

The Great Hackl -- about Cambridge Analytica and psychographic marketing re: 2016 US election and Brexit -- is up there with CitizenFour and Get Me Roger Stone as essential. And like CitizenFour it has the immediacy of following investigative reporters in the moment of doing their work.

hell of a cast here

Greta cast, but that still looks pretty bad. And not bad meaning good.
