Title: What series have you watched?
Post by: Pottsy on March 09, 2018, 06:42:29 PM: So I don't hijack the movies topic, what series have you watched that you would recommend.

Just finished watching season one of Secret City on Foxtel catch up, spooks and politics in Canberra.
Cannot wait for series 2, very well produced Australian drama. :cheers:

Post by: Rumpig on March 09, 2018, 07:46:42 PM: Summit Expeditions on YouTube...his solo CSR trip and Kimberley trip are both a good watch.
Expedition Overland South America is another good series’s to watch, and there’s a young couple in a troopy that left WA and shipped their vehicle from Darwin to Indonesia that i’m currently watching their series also....can’t recall the name of that series currently off the top of my head though.
I don’t watch much in the way of “main stream tv”, more interested in touring holiday type stuff myself.

Title: Re: What series have you watched?
Post by: monbeg on March 10, 2018, 12:00:34 PM: Norsemen on Netflix.

It's a tongue in cheek version of Vikings and very close to the bone as to how politics and corruption works while being hilarious.
Title: Re: What series have you watched?
Post by: whitey1 on March 10, 2018, 02:02:26 PM: Loved West World on Foxtel. Can't wait for season 2 but don't have foxtel now so someone will have to record it for us.

Title: Re: What series have you watched?
Post by: trinityalyce on March 11, 2018, 10:29:37 AM: Been watching Suits. There are some plot holes bigger than Kings Canyon from time to time, but the show is amusing nonetheless.

Before that it was The Good Wife (went downhill after the first season or so...). Before that How to Get Away With Murder, which was mostly fantastic.

Gotta love Netflix...

I sure do. Netflix is bringing out more good looking shows than we could ever hope to watch, since we really only get a few hours of tv watching time in a week. We pretty much never watch free to air tv. 50% ads and 50% garbage and they wonder why so many people prefer streaming.

I'm more than happy paying $18/month for netflix.

Absolutely! We have the cheapest Netflix plan possible and honestly? I can't complain. The SD quality is absolutely fine, even streamed to the TV, and we never want to watch on more than one device at a time anyway! It has been a long time now since we've watched anything more than the news on free to air TV...

Title: Re: What series have you watched?
Post by: shanegtr on March 13, 2018, 01:07:59 AM: Recently watched the end of the f****ing world on Netflix - it’s a dark comedy which I got several laughs from. Some other notable comedy series on Netflix, everything sucks (great if you where a 90’s teenager), the good place, broklyn 9 9, Frankie and grace.
Title: Re: What series have you watched?
Post by: rockrat on March 13, 2018, 09:00:58 PM: I’ve been watching Grand Designs on Netflix. Even though it’s the UK version, it is great to see people with a passion go to extraordinary lengths to fulfill their dream.

Title: Re: What series have you watched?
Post by: grantxx on March 14, 2018, 06:47:46 PM: Also agree we usually Netflix and Stan. Currently watching The Following on Stan pretty good if you like a bit of a serial killer story. Orphan black worth a watch but recent favourite ‘new to us’ was Deadwood

Also forced to watch Outlander

I reckon the UK version of frank looks/sounds more convincing as a drunk. I actually prefer the UK version as it was the first one I watched. The first season the of the US version was hard to watch as it was the same basic script as the UK version, lucky it took its own path after season one and got a lot better
