Finished season 4 of Line of Duty last night. Season 5 isn't on Prime so we'll pay $12.99 to watch it on BBC OnDemand. Incredible show and we will be so sad when we finish season 5.

So for anyone who’s interested, Wentworth is supposed to be on Netflix at the end of August.

We started watching Nashville. I originally watched the first few seasons, but lost interest. Much better to binge. We were in Nashville all last week, so it was very interesting to watch being in town...AND my sister worked for HP during seasons 4,5 & 6 and I can't wait to see more of the parallels between show/her real life during that time.

Other than that, I've been watching a lot if Guy's Grocery Games

"I Know This Much Is True" Just finished last night---VERY dark, VERY sad and difficult to watch sometimes, but I loved his dedication and deep love for his brother! Mark Ruffalo's acting was SUPERB! Not only did he play identical twins; but they took a break while shooting in order for him to gain thirty pounds and portray his schizophrenic twin. This is a LONG trailer  and really sums it up! www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4KBGydqlVk I almost started that last night |

Stateless on Netflix is really good. It's an Australian series with Yvonne Strahovski (Serena Waterford in The Handmaid's Tale) and Asher Keddie (Nina in Offspring) set in an immigration detention center. I've also discovered Britain's Best Home Cook on Hulu. Any fans of GBBO will love it.  |

I finished up Wonderland this weekend and now am in a funk. I did not want this series to end. It’s an Australian “dramedy” on Amazon-maybe like a cross between Friends and Melrose Place. I loved the scenic shots and was watching a couple episodes a night. Very binge worthy.

We finished the British crime drama Scott & Bailey last night. We enjoyed the series but not quite as much as Line of Duty. LoD really set the bar high. I think part of it is that we liked the characters on Line of Duty more than the ones on Scott & Bailey. S&B seemed to go more into their personal lives.
Now we are watching Yellowstone ~ just finished the first season.

I'm hanging my head in embarrassment here but I have been re-watching The Vampire Diaries. I had only watched the first 2 seasons when it was on & I truly have watched EVERYTHING ELSE on Netflix/Prime/Hulu so I decided to dive in & watch it.
I also started watching The Bold Type which is a series on Freeform channel. Sort of a "Sex & the City" type of show based on 20-somethings working at a NYC magazine. I'm only 3 episodes into this series.

Once again, thanks for all the recommendations from this thread !
Just finished Good Behavior from 2016-17. We loved it. So sad it was only 2 seasons.
Also watched a couple of decent horror flicks on Netflix this weekend, if you're in to that -- Polaroid (2019) and Eli (2019).
Happy Streaming !

It’s about fighting. Nick Jonas is in it. It’s ok. |

I'm not sure if anyone here has the PBS Masterpiece channel through Prime. I LOVE the show Seaside Hotel. It's Danish so there are subtitles. I just like the characters, the food they make, the beach, etc.
Set in the 1920s through the 30s. There are 6 short-ish seasons. I think they're making more but it will be a while.

Also I'm re-watching all the seasons of Alone on Prime. The best "survival" show out there.

I truly have watched EVERYTHING ELSE on Netflix/Prime/Hulu Surely you jest. Is it that you only watch certain genres? Have you watched Bosch, The Night Manager, Mrs. Maisel, Sneaky Pete? If not, you are missing some of the best shows out there. I don’t have Paramount and I really want to watch this. Is it worth getting? We're watching the first 2 seasons on Peacock, the new streaming network from NBC. We get it free from Comcast. We also get Paramount in our lineup from Comcast. Some people love it, we're on the fence but will see it through. It has gotten better since we first started watching. mnmloveli, we LOVED Good Behavior and were so sad when it was cancelled. The first episode we seemed to hold our breath the entire time! It was riveting! |

We're in the first season of Bosch now and yes, loving it! So well done...writing, acting. I've read (and am still reading) the series by Michael Connelly and am impressed by how well it sticks to the book story lines. |

There's a new season of The Protector out on Netflix. It's a Turkish show so subtitles are a must. I liked it. |

Norsemen is a funny, kind of silly half-hour show that just came out with season 3 on Netflix. It's about Vikings but has a modern sense of humor (again, kind of silly). It's in English but it's Norwegian I think. Maybe Swedish, sorry, I forget.

Talk about being late to the party, we finished watching the 2018 documentary Wild Wild Country last night. So strange, but fascinating. I had never heard of this group/town in Oregon.
ETA: Netflix

DS and I have started rewatching Lillyhammer on Netflix. I think Steven Van Zandt is a genius in this one. It's full of such great characters, and the music is fantastic. I'm enjoying it just as much the second time round.
