Anybody have some good Netflix recommendations?

Lilihammer, Longmire & Wallender.

Wallander, for sure! Both lead actors (Kenneth Branagh and Krister Henriksson) are great.

The original trilogy of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo….

Breaking Bad (One of the best and entertaining series I ever watched as of late. Excellent acting, great characters)
Walking Dead (Wasn't into the zombie fad, but got sucked into it. Even the GF, who hates gore, loved the series)
LOST (Takes awhile to get into it, but there's plenty of episodes and seasons to reel you in)
Band of Brothers (If you haven't watched this, where have you been?)


Others I'm considering watching:
Revolution (post apocalyptic future; no electricity for 15 years)
The Unit (A show about the lives of some Delta Force operators)

My dad and I find it slightly disturbing that we find ourselves rooting for a serial killer when he gets in trouble

Exactly! It kind of bends the rules. It's always putting me on edge. Is he getting caught or how will he avoid getting caught! Of coarse I know he won't be caught since there are so many seasons.

Yeah, Dexter was awesome. That's just good writing there. Portraying the Antagonist as the Protagonist or vice versa. Whereas in Breaking Bad, the Protagonist becomes the Antagonist.

Yeah I vote for Archer too.
It's the first time that I realized a cartoon character could be erotic
AND NO I'm not talking about Archer.

I'm talking about Pam
mmmmm Like them big gurls.

She does seem like a good egg.

"Arrow" Season 1 is on Netflix. I was hooked after the first episode or two. I was lucky enough to catch it on Netflix at just the right time to were I didn't miss any episodes between normal TV programing, Netflix, and replay on the internet.

Second on LOST. got back into it this past week and now my sleep routine is all screwed up from that last episode I just had to watch.
The Unit is also great. I have been digging the recommendation within the cerebral documentaries, religious based ones and ones about more natural plant based eating patterns.

Netflix has has now ruined me.

I guess my next one will be Breaking Bad and then some of the British stuff.

"Sherlock" is excellent...You can watch all six episodes and PBS is running the new episodes this month on KET (and I am assuming Indiana's PBS stations will as well) on "Mystery"....

Very witty, very CSI, very well written and amazingly enough manages to stay true to the orignal Sherlock Holmes stories....But updated...Like nowdays everyone kind of assumes that Sherlock and Watson are a couple and it's funny watching Watson deal with explaining that "we are not together we just work together'...

Also if you can handle subtitles....

My Way
Warriors of the Rainbow
Max Manus Man of War
and Kon Tiki

I have a few:

Mad Men- One of the best dramas on TV. Period. The earlier season are better, IMO, but it's all great.

Battlestar Galactica (the new one)- even if you're not into sci-fi, you want post-apocalyptic? Here it is. Tensions between military and civilian leadership, reformatting society, secrecy vs. openess.

Arrested Develpment- For me, hands down the funniest show.....ever. You have to watch it closely or you'll miss good stuff and watch it from the beginning. The running gags are one of the centerpieces. It only needs Dr. Tobias Funke to be funny, but it has so much more.

The League- funny, funny, funny....but pretty cringe inducing at times.....based on friends and family in a fantasy football league, but you won't believe some of the situations that arise. Some seriously twisted, but funny, minds involved here.

Lost- I loved it when it was on TV and I sense binge watching may be better yet.

Malcolm in the Middle- an oft overlook sitcom that is more irreverent than most family sitcoms, but with a loving, though dysfunctional family at the center. Brian Cranston, pre-Breaking Bad- hilarious

For TV "comfort food"...and it is both comforting and entertaining:

Dragnet
Adam-12
Andy Griffith
Star Trek (pick a series, OS, NG, Voyager, Enterprise...even DS-9 if you have to)
Dick Van Dyke
Magnum P.I.

Guilty Pleasures- sometimes ashamed to admit I watch, but I do"

Gold Rush- it makes everyone feel like they could do a better job than these guys

Tin Man- a psychedelic trip back through OZ

NUMB3RS- You have to suspend disbelief...a lot of disbelief, but it's entertaining

 

[Gabriel]

The Fall

 

[Jack Burton]

Burn Notice for sure... they are up to the sixth year I believe. Lots of good watching.

Pawn Stars to see all the neat guns that come in. A decent one every other show it seems.

Psych to watch the best interaction between two guys since Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

 

[BuddieReigns]

White Collar

Lie to Me

I am absolutely loving Dexter! I just completed the first season and I hope they build upon the storyline and not jack it up.

It just keeps getting better. I am on the last season now and very curious as to how they wrap it up.

Doesn't it feel weird just a little rooting for a serial killer

I hated how the wrapped up Weeds. They could have done a much better job with that one.

HoughMade was right about Mad Men. The writing is fantastic!

I watched The Americans last season and recorded the episode from last night. It really makes you wonder who is around you.

Was Weeds worth watching?
