Re: Any ideas for a new tv series to binge watch?
I don't have Netflix--I use Amazon Prime. Some not yet mentioned--Warehouse 13, Fringe (John Noble is great in this), Firefly (only a short binge--it ended too soon), The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., Prime Suspect (Helen Mirren/BBC version)... so many. :) Buffy is my comfort food.
Re: Any ideas for a new tv series to binge watch?
I am not much of a tv watcher - but I binge watched season 1 of Bloodline on netflix and cannot wait for season 2. Love Kyle Chandler from Friday Night Lights and Sissy Spacek and Sam Shepard are good in it to. The plot twists kept me riveted - so much that I forgot fo put a meatloaf in the oven. We were having company and I turned the oven on to pre-heat whilst binging. An hour and a half later (15 minutes before quests were due), I opened the door to check my meatloaf and was stunned! Thank goodness for microwaves lol.

Fun to see what everyone likes to watch. Guess we skew heavily to the British shows, but maybe that has something to do with quality, lol. Zombies, yes. Sci fi in general yes and its in quite a renaissance lately. Forgot to mention how good Person of Interest is. It only has a few episodes this year to tie up the long plot and then it will be over.
If you want to try a zombie show that is a lot of fun as opposed to the seriousness of Walking Dead, watch iZombie. It's on the CW - not really a channel my tv knows very well. It has had one season. A zomcom. Adorable, really. And Z Nation is starting up soon. It's very campy.

You all know that quilting is a post-apocalyptic life skill, it's not just a hobby... Haha

I second "North and South" (pssst...it's sorta about FABRIC) and "The Tudors" was just grand. And the Henry the VIII is super handsome. ;) If you like costume dramas...

I really love the show MONK. But it is not on netflicks, but definitely not new. Worth watching though. I need to just buy that series all seasons on disc. That used to be our Friday night ritual at our house. Pop a great big pan of popcorn on the stove and gather round the TV to watch as a family. I miss that.
Right now we are into Shaun the Sheep (which isn't on netflicks). I highly recommend that for family viewing too. Pretty funny stuff, and no dialogue.

Oh, forgot my fav....and there are a few episodes left on (cant remember now if it was hulu or netflicks). Dr Pol. It is about a vet who is very good at what he does with old remedies that are overlooked by newer vets. Plus his patients cannot tell him what is wrong. lol

The first year of HBO's True Detective is the absolute best mini- series I have ever seen. I dont know what shows on US netflick but it should be on the HBO on Demand if you have it. Season 2 was not worth watching.
Re: Any ideas for a new tv series to binge watch?
Hubby and I just got caught up in "The Leftovers" on HBO video on demand. It's a drama, mystery, fantasy, thriller. Pretty well done so far, 2 % of the world's population disappeared during an event known as the " Sudden Departure"
