Looking to binge a new show. Open to all genres. It doesn’t have to be a new show but I’m just looking to find one that I really can’t get enough of. Thanks :)

    Bojack Horseman.

    I avoided it for years because I thought it would be a run of the mill “edgy” adult cartoon. My wife was out of town and I was looking for some second screen video while playing video games and checked it out.

    I was immediately hooked and had to start over when she got home so we could watch it together.

    The first season of Altered Carbon is incredible. Season two is good, but doesn’t capture the spirit of the first.

      Really great show. I have a hard time describing it with ruining the show, but it’s basically about a small town in Germany, where people basically grew up together. It follows the drama between them all, and how their actions reverberate throughout their history together. It gets hard tracking people because it shows a lot of people at different ages, so it compounds the number of faces you need to recall.the show I think is very good about clarifying by the end of an episode, I think. Don’t read about it online because there’s a lot to learn organically.

        Sadly, this is one that must be watched in German. The English dubbing is absolutely terrible.

    Dungeon Food and 3-Body-Problem got me hooked immediately. Normally I wait before a season is complete, with those I couldn’t.

      That season 2 episode 2 opening montage about the power vacuum was so good I just watched it on repeat for an hour.

    I don’t get “into” shows on Netflix anymore. I wait a year or two to see if it gets cancelled first. Can’t wait to check out 3 body in 2026-27

    The Woman in the House Across the Street from the Girl in the Window. We turned it on in the afternoon to check out the first episode and wound up watching the whole thing that day. Only series we didn’t split out over days. It kept us enthralled because we started the show wondering “Wtf is this show?” and never got an answer. It’s not for everyone.

    Wild, Wild Country. Docu-series on the Rajneeshis in Oregon during the 70s. My parents lived through the era in Oregon, so that helped draw me in, but it is good nonetheless.

    If you haven’t watched the Rohl Dahl stuff directed by Wes Anderson, you should. I loved every single one of them.

    Teenage Bounty Hunters and it’s fucking cancelled. Don’t worry, though: We got two seasons of Chicago Party Aunt. That great show we all know and love.
