I am currently watching Friday Night Lights on Amazon prime video, I love love love it!! Bloodline, The Killing, Santa Clarita Diet, Unbreakable Kimmie Schmidt, Stranger Things, Altered Carbon, all were very enjoyable!!
Been watching Rectify, Episodes, (both via Netflix) and the new season of Bosch (Amazon).
Feel like I need to start writing down all the series we've watched (or I've watched without my husband) just to keep track. Keep forgetting what we've watched and what we want to watch....
For carcrash, can't-stop-watching binge I recommend Drag Race. Vikings is perfect if you're feeling serious, Drag Race is perfect if you want to zone out in front of the TV. I will (shamefully) admit that I have cried over Drag Race eliminations.
Broadchurch is really good I also loved River- one season Derek- sooo good Tabula rasa only one season but worth it True detective -season 1 Silicon Valley - it has its good and bad moments The OA - only one season but really good
I recently finished all seasons of Black Mirror and loved it, season 4 of Mozart in the Jungle was ok, season 3 of Love was ok too. Currently I'm watching Preacher & The Good Place - both very entertaining. The only thing I can think of to trash is The Walking Dead...I finally gave up on it and feel pretty swell.
Over the last five or so months, I binge watched Broadchurch, The Killing, just started Santa Clarita Diet, The Americans, Zelda (very sad there isn't a second season), American Horror Story, iZombie, and The Good Place.
I tried to watch The Man in the High Castle. Season 1 was amazing. I have zero idea of what Season 2 is about and I need a de-coder ring.
I like Lost in Space so much I won't binge it. Ertugrul Finally finishing up Turn (catch all the secret Masonic references) Steel Rain
Here are the bad Netflix shows/movies: The Titan Clov Paradox Everything Sucks The OA Babylon Berlin Altered Carbon: The Adventures of Euro Steroid Man
I don't have cable, I just steal streaming services.
Oh shit, I forgot about 90 Day Fiance. That's another zone-out-in-front-of-tv option. My MIL worked with the season two couples and said only two of them seemed like they were legit, which is understandable if you remember season 2. She also worked with the 'Love After Lockup' lot, which is even more of a car crash.
I'm fascinated by Love After Lockup...where do they find these people and why are the women so oblivious to the fact that people will be different after time in prison and have legal restrictions. Train wreck and I love it!
I'm not really a binge watcher but I love documentaries and 2 that I would recommend are "The Bridge" about suiciders on the Golden Gate Bridge and "There's Something Wrong with Aunt Diane".
I binge watched Fringe. Fabulous. The world needs more Anna Torv I've determined. I'd recommend 'Agent Carter' - it is excellent but I need to disclose that I think Hayley Atwell is just spectacularly pretty. Kat Dennings class of good looking.
The Keepes on netflix, docuseries. About the murder of a nun in 1969 baltimore and also about themassive sex abuse that happened in the churches there.
Kinda gies along with all the recent blinds... i mean of the topics and the explanations of how it happens.
Altered Carbon-Netflix Frontier(Season 1 and 2)-Netflix Outlander-Starz American Gods-Starz Search Party-TNT? Taboo-FX Mary Kills People-Lifetime(laugh all you want, but it's pretty good) Fortitude-Amazon Prime The Kettering Incident-Amazon Prime(I think)
Last week was a four night binge of thrift store bought denzel washington movies...he is pretty reliable for not making terrible movies....i dont watch TV and that much is apparent when scrolling down this list...
I’ve been stuck in 1930s pre-code films for almost a month. TONS on YouTube, btw. Current World is kicking my ass, i hide in the 30s. Recently watched a great one from 1929 with a very young Barbara Stanwyck.
The Deuce on HBO sucks. I grew up on the streets of NYC in the 70's. Not close. Not accurate. Not realistic at all. It's a disheveled cartoon.
They should focus only on the Maggie G storyline. HBO desperately trying to relive there Soprano glory days - ain't gonna happen. Love that they have Producers explaining episodes afterwards, as they think audiences "have no idea" how to watch, which they stated after complaints about the second season of True Detective.
I've had meetings with these execs - typical myopic uncreative thinking.
I just finished the Russian show, Smile of a Mockingbird, which held my interest (and Russian men, yum), so it was good.
Before that, the show, Black Widow, out of the Netherlands, was really good.
My binge before that was the Mexican show, La Querida Del Centauro. Loved it! Drama. Mind fluff, and a gazillion episodes per season.
And my ULTIMATE favorite binge this year was the Finnish show was, Helppo Elama aka Easy Living. LOVED that. So well done.
For all time favorite binges; 1.BROEN - hands down. THE best show ever. 2. The Killing - US version - amazing! 3. Damages (my first binge) until the final season.
You know what I think slipped under the radar, Troy: Fall of a City on Netflix/BBC. Great acting all around and really told the ancient story well in 8 episodes. Joseph Mawle was excellent as always as Odysseus and Johnny Harris was the best Agamemnon I've ever seen.
Actually just started watching "Justified," which I never got around to even though I love Timothy Olyphant. All the lusty talk about him on this blog reminded me it was looming out there, waiting to be enjoyed.
I don't usually watch more than an hour a night of a show, so if it's a sitcom (I blew through the first three seasons of "Community" several years ago), that means two episodes a night, but for "Justified" it's only one.
And OMG, @mercyprosperity! I went on a "Rockford Files" binge--the whole first season, which you can get for free on Daily Motion--about a year ago. Been meaning to get S02, but haven't yet. Where is our modern James Garner?
Altered Carbon was binge worthy. The special effects were easily the best on tv, better than most movies actually. The action was great and the story was good. The story is a novel, not a procedural. You may not understand everything in the first two episodes, but there are reasons revealed later for everything you see and the way characters act. It is the Blade Runner sequel we wanted, although Blade Runner examines humanity through androids while Altered Carbon uses immortality. I don't get the hate fest, Altered Carbon didn't cost me an extra nickel but I loved it, while Blade Runner 2 made me want my money back.
I went on a YouTube binge last week of lectures on who William Shakespeare actually was or wasn't. Quite a little scholarly kerfuffle going on there. And then i’ll lose a day on serial killer documentaries. Just watched my third or 4th version of the Mary Bell story at 2:00 this morning. My brain cant make up its mind.
Working my way through Blackish. Also Say Yes to the Dress and House Hunters to counteract the depressing side effects of my husband binging Air Disasters. I am never flying again!
I binged on this past/most current season of The X-Files. BUT only because my DVR is losing its marbles and if I have to take it in and swap it at Spectrum, I'd lose what I recorded.
I can't binge watch. It makes me crazy to watch more than two episodes of anything in a short period of time. I need variety, although for some reason I can watch Big Bang Theory every night in reruns.
Bosch! I also enjoyed Altered Carbon. A while back, I binge-watched Burn Notice and really enjoyed it, despite suspending disbelief over all the explosions.
I just binged all 6 episodes of the documentary "Wild Wild Country" about the Baghwan Rashneesh and his commune in central Oregon. Absolutely jaw dropping, what happened there.
+1 on Versailles, also. I'm fiending for season 3 but heartbroken that it's the last one.
Disjointed on Netflix. I watch at least one episode every day. And I've seen them all at least 5 times. I'm SOOOOO angry it was not renewed yet they insist on cramming Fuller House down everyone's throat.
The Wire-can’t believe I didn’t watch it sooner (It aired during one of the worst periods of my life & that’s saying a lot) *Sneaky Pete *Blackish *Better Call Saul *Good Girls-NBC *Splitting Up Together & Kevin Probably Saves the World-ABC~All 3 network shows snuck up on me **Orange is the New Black**the book (the show is ok)
Oldies but favorites: *Nurse Jackie *Weeds *Justified *Boardwalk Empire *Big Love
Santa Clarita Diet - clever writing, good acting, a little too gross/gory for me but I'll probably watch the next season anyway
Altered Carbon - thought it was lame at first, then I got into it, and Joel Kinnamon naked is something everyone attracted to men should see. The writing is a B- but Joel naked is an A+++
Just finished season 1 of Lucifer - clever writing, good acting, but too predictable in terms of bad boy/good girl. I'd rather see him with the bad girl myself. A+ on the music.
Handmaid's Tale - I am never emotionally affected by television. This show made me cry. Should win all the awards. All of them.
Westworld - I love it but honestly I have to read about it online to figure out all the plotlines. I know "show don't tell" but there is such a thing as too convoluted and hard to figure out.
The Borgias (Netflix) - this is older but is amazing. Jeremy Irons, again, should have won ALL THE AWARDS for his portrayal of a corrupt Pope.
You young pups who missed it the first time should go back and watch Ally McBeal now that you can. It is still funny and relatable.
The best thing on Youtube is a channel called Obsolete Oddity. He does documentaries on historical crimes and they are better than most true crime shows on television.
I just finished Looming Tower on Hulu. It’s worth watching. I’ve binged SOA, The Wire, Breaking Bad, Dexter and The Shield repeatedly... and I’m sure I will again.
Donner Pass Woke up early and put it on while I had coffee. A strange tale of coincidences and wendigo and antagonists named Epstein. And to think it appeared while I was looking for a show called "GvE" (there may have been a Lexx binge my those are pretty women)

Jeffrey Duncan Jones (born September 28, 1946) is an American actor best known for his roles as Edward R. Rooney in Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986), Charles Deetz in Beetlejuice (1988), Skip Tyler in The Hunt for Red October (1990), and A.W. Merrick in Deadwood (2004–2006).[2][3] His career started in Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, Minnesota and advanced to London and Broadway. In film and television, Jones has had many roles which capitalized on his deadpan portrayal of characters in unusual situations, often to comic effect. He was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for his portrayal of Joseph II in Amadeus (1984)[4] and a Screen Actors Guild Award as part of the ensemble cast of Deadwood.[5]
In 2002, Jones was arrested for possession of child pornography and accused of soliciting a 14-year-old boy to pose for nude photographs.[30] In 2003, he pleaded no contest to a felony charge of soliciting a minor. At the same time, the misdemeanor charge of possession of child pornography was dropped. His attorney emphasized that there was no allegation of improper physical contact. His punishment was five years probation, counseling, and the requirement to register as a sex offender.[31] Jones was arrested twice for failing to update his sex offender status, both in Florida (2004)[32] and in California (2010).[33]
I thought I’d never get over my Phil Collins obsession, but take a look at me now!
ReplyDeleteBroadchurch is the perfect binge show. Only three seasons that you can watch in a weekend. Archer is also fantastic for binging.
ReplyDeleteColony Tv series. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe wife got me watching "Supernatural" by binge watching.
ReplyDeleteI keep saying it is hokey but they pull it off!

ReplyDeleteI watched the last two seasons and loved them. Hows the third holding up? I’m waiting til it’s over to get showtime and binge.
DeleteI loved the first five seasons of Supernatural. After that it got kind of stupid.

DeleteA child psychiatrist as the villian, they're preaching to the choir.
Parker is playing someone I knew.

ReplyDeleteHalf-way through Season 4 of Bosch and it's good.
ReplyDeleteI also "binged" Season 1 of Chance starring Hugh Laurie. I think it's on Amazon. Recommend.
