Black Mirror - 6 seasons. Every episode a short story. All unrelated but often share common themes.

Spiral French 8 seasons long is a wonderful bing best international drama In my humble opinion .

I recently started this and am enjoying it.

Another superb French series, imo, is the "bureau des legendes". If you liked spiral then it's worth giving this a go.

Deadwood

If you like that modern western style with some very nasty violence thrown in

Surprised "The Last Kingdom" (netflix) hasn't been mentioned. Watched it during lockdown and so good we watched it again just before season 5 came out. Fictional character but based on history when the Danes started raiding England. Brutal, big battles, great acting. Need to give it at least 3 episodes, then it just gets better. Season 2/3 best, dipped a bit in season 4 (when the Welsh were involved).

The books are an easy read, and the series much better than I expected. But it does bother me that at random times of the day or night I catch myself pronouncing 'Uhtred son of Uhtred..... Destiny is all!'

Re: Decent TV series binge watch?

The very best I've seen is Justified. Finished watching the last series about 3 months ago and nothing has come close to it since. It is on Amazon Prime.

Agree really liked Justified. Have you seen Justified: City Primeval

Storyline
Eight years after he's left Kentucky, Givens is now based in Miami, balancing life as a marshal and part-time father of a 14-year-old girl. A chance encounter on a Florida highway sends him to Detroit and he crosses paths with Clement Mansell, aka The Oklahoma Wildman, a violent sociopath who's already slipped through the fingers of Detroit's finest once and wants to do so again

Just finished watching a true crime documentary called Outcry. “A five-part documentary series examining the gripping story of high school football star Greg Kelley and a quest for truth and justice.”

Highly recommended.

Just got done watching a doc series about how binge-watching series actually makes you thicker.

Can't wait for season 2.

Can't work out if this throwaway humour or a deeply insightful comment on contemporary culture.

That's probably because you've been bingeing too much then
