What's good on Netflix?

Oh, didn't realise it was a series. Thought it was odd that the movie was trending again. Will be watching now.

I didn’t like the way it ended (apart from guaranteeing a second season)
Felt like it insulted the audience

Still feels like it’s directed by Guy Ritchie which is good, I believe he’s the Executive Producer so I’m sure he’s heavily involved

Anyone watching the 3 persons body great show.

If you mean 3 Body Problem, yes, I just finished episode 5, it's the best thing I've ever watched on Netflix so far.
I'm a big sci-fi fan and have read all the masters, Asimov, Heinlein, LeGuin, Harrison, William Gibson etc and this is as good a story as anything from them. I don't know how close the adaptation is to the source material (by author Cixin Lui) but the resulting series is amazing, I hope it stays on course.

Also they've just added Godzilla Minus One, which I'll watch as soon as I get 2 hours to myself.

Binged Baby Reindeer in like 3 days. Really enjoyed it.

I'm currently binging on Stan - Spartacus (on the last season now - seen this series multiple times) and on Binge - The Walking Dead cause I've never actually seen it (no spoilers please!). Nearly finished Season 3, I know multiple people who gave up around season 7 lol.

I'm lining up Breaking Bad and Sons of Anarchy afterwards as those are 2 other 'viral series' that I've never actually seen

If you have Breaking Bad on the list, then just pencil in Better Call Saul now. Do BB first though.

I checked out the new movie, Hit Man. It was a pretty enjoyable movie until the last 15 minutes, when it just glossed over a particular plot point. One of the rare movies that could have used another 15-20 minutes to see how that played out. It left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. However, overall, it is a pretty enjoyable movie, 7/10.

I think I gave up around there. Be interesting to see if you go past it.

Yep, gone further. I'm starting now Season 9. If anything, I'm more hooked now than previously! Reckon I'll get through all 11 series. - Again, no spoilers please - :)

Nice, Ive thought about going back to it, like most others i lost interest around 7-8 or so. However I also think it coincided with streaming services taking over and people getting over the 'one episode a week monday 8.30pm' type series.

"Mr McMahon" documentary series getting released end of this month. You don't want to miss it even if you hate pro wrestling.

Same guy that made tiger king and also the producer of 30 for 30.

It will be similar to tiger king in that most of the interviews happened prior to him being axed for sexual misconduct allegations much the same as most of tiger king was filmed prior to Joe being arrested.

It chronicles his whole career apparently.

Geez
That producer gets pretty lucky that the subject of his documentaries have a life changing event while filming

I really liked the first series, found the Second a bit boring but gave the third a try, more of the same, won’t finish it.

I was into wrestling during the 90s. I remember when everyone ditched WWF and started watching WCW/NWO for a while there. Enjoyed the doc.

Loving Slow Horses on Apple.

Jackson Lamb is rapidly becoming one of my all time favourite TV characters.

The Penguin on Foxtel. Wasn't planning on watching as superhero stuff bores me. Then got told it was more Sopranos than Marvel/DC. Only 3 eps in, but loving it.
