What's worth watching on Netflix?

Recommended Posts

Thought I would start this for all users of Netflix.

There are so many shows and movies that I have never heard of and I thought it would be useful for people to post shows that they enjoyed and are worth watching on Netflix.

 

To start, I watched all 10 epidsodes of Marco Polo.

It is an amazing series with a lot of great scenery and great plot.

Exciting with a lot of action. But beware there is a lot of nudity in this series.

 

Any other shows you care to recommend?

Great thread Someguy, thanks ;-) It seems that you have the American Netflix, correct? I only have the Canadian one which starts to frustrate me because of the little choices we have. Anyway, maybe you have seen them already but here are my preferred ones: Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead (not for the zombies because I am not interested at all in this, but for how human beings would deal with a high disaster level that would threaten humanity), Orange Is The New Black, Hannibal, and I love a series that is not on Netflix yet: Orphan Black. I have seen the first season only and look forward to seeing the next ones. I tried Marco Polo this week but it did not catch me... despite the shocking nudity. Ah ah ah...

Still in the process of watching Marco Polo; just finished Episode 5 of 10. BTW, this is only the first season and hopefully more to come. :icon_biggrin: Very enjoyable series.

Here are some of the wonderful TV series that I binge-watched on Netflix recently.

 

Comedy series: Community; Arested Development; Archer.

Science fiction: Firefly, Star Trek Next Generation.

Drama: Orange is the New Black, House of Lies.

Crime. The Killing, the Shield.

 

All of these are top notch TV series, critically acclaimed or at least worth a look.

I would highly recommend House of Cards. The US version with Kevin Spacey, very well done and well acted. Season three will be released in the new year. It's a Netflix production, so the best part is they release the whole season at once.

 

I would also recommend Rectify. Another very good show.

The Canadian version has a fraction of the content it had a few years ago.

 

For instance they used to have all the Top Gear but now only a few recent seasons. They had a lot of BBC and only a bit now.

I loved the Marco Polo series, too! Just before that I watched Mongol, which was the story of Ghenghis Khan, Kublai Khan's grandfather. It was also excellent.

 

I just finished watching Wentworth, kind of an Australian version of Orange is the New Blalck, only ramped up a notch. It was excellent. It got better and better as it went along.

Are we not mentioning movies? Headhunters was fun as was The Caller (although I think they took it off for some reason). American Horror Story is great as well as Breaking Bad.

Started watching Wentworth. It's about life in a woman's prison.

Very interesting. I am now at the beginning of season 2.

"Fat, sick and nearly dead" by Joe Cross

A very positive approach to eating well and encouraging others to do so too!

This documentary changed my life when I was overworked in a corporate job and nearing burnout. Now much more focused on my health - definitely worth watching.

Everything is worthwhile watching on Netflix!

No commercials, watch it when you want to watch it.

There's nothing compared to it, and I hate being dictated to by cable, haven't had cable in years.
