Has anyone watched Narcos on Netflix? I saw it on there recently, and have heard some good things about it.
Also need to catch Mr. Robot at some point before that comes back for S2.
Just watched the first episode of Narcos yesterday, was awesome.
Yeah I watched the first three episodes so far. It's pretty good. A bit slow, and while I don't know all of the details of Escobar it seems like they might be playing up some things. Or maybe not, because I don't know anything about him and he really was as crazy strong willed and fantastical as the show portrays him as.
The main DEA agent guy is a bit underwhelming for a lead (unless you count Escobar as the lead?).
Overall I'm enjoying it.
Thanks. Didn't watch anything yet, but now i've got free Netflix for a month. Gonna check a couple of movies and some series too.
Earlier I had only Viaplay (Scandinavian thing I guess) because they own NHL rights here. And we can use GameCenter through Viaplay too.
Again, I'm not sure what's on Scandinavian Netflix vs US Netflix, but some shows on the US version that I thoroughly enjoyed are Spartacus, Rescue Me, and Peaky Blinders. I highly recommend watching them if you get the chance.
Peaky Blinders is two six episode seasons so that can get done quick. It's about a British gang right around WW1. I'm a guy who can get really bothered by over the top accents but this show was completely 100% awesome for me.
Spartacus has one season at 13 episodes, one at 6, and the last two are 10 episodes each. It's a bit longer but the action and payoff are amazing. Plus, there are quite a few scantily clad women in almost every episode.
Rescue Me is quite possibly my favorite show ever. It's long, with the first 4 seasons having 13 episodes, the 5th having 22, the 6th at 10 and the 7th at 9. So it's long, it has its ups and downs, but overall it is a great show. It's a drama/comedy about a bunch of firemen in New York starting shortly after the World Trade Center attacks in 2001.
