I'd like this thread to be dedicated strictly to Netflix. Perhaps it will help others find shows.
My latest find is for the kids:
Called Beat Bugs:
"an animated series featuring renditions of the Fab Four’s songs"
http://variety.com/2016/digital/news/netflix-beatles-beat-bugs-original-1201702121/
It's cute, not violent geared towards 4-7 years old I'd say.
I'm looking for show ideas for the kids and for my wife and I
What have you recently discovered?

The wife and I are actually really enjoying Jane the Virgin. I think the tele novella concept is hilarious...

Our kids also really like Mia and Me. It's about fairies and unicorns.
I've watched Cocaine Cowboys, all three of them after watching Narcos. To find out escobar wasn't as big as people think he is. There are others who were bigger dealers and more violent.

The Imitation Game, also with BC, is a very good movie and is also available on Netflix.
Right now I am watching The Roman Empire, which is a mixture of documentary and drama. Interesting if you like history.

Ok so its not just me who thought it wasn't fast paced but with that storyline I totally get why it shouldn't be.

I love Mia and Me. Started out expecting to barely like it, and did it just for our 5 year old.
Turns out we ALL love the ongoing story, and how the show, while for kids, does not try to be overly kid seeming.

I have not. Is it on Netflix or will I need to use the www to find it?

The Imitation Game, which was quite phenomenal! It's the story of Alan Turing, the mathematician credited with breaking the German Enigma machines.
The Big Short, based on real life events of the 2008 sub-prime mortgage meltdown and stock market crash. It revolves around some groups of Wall Street people that foresaw the meltdown and bet it would all come tumbling down. This one as well was a great movie. Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt (small part) all had great performances. I liked how they took time to explain various things (documentary-like) such as sub-prime mortgages, Credit Default Swaps and other Wallstreet lingo. I particularly enjoyed the "Now here's Margot Robbie in a bubble bath to explain...."

We watched the first episode and it was just OK. Not sure if we will continue.
We've been watching Medici. It's OK too I find the video very good the sound is mixed. The voices are low but music is very loud.
Fantastic how they did the cut-always to explain things! I don't know about you Strongbad, but I couldn't tell you a darn thing Margot Robbie explained in that scene.

I talked Mark into watching The Crown, and he felt the same way until about the 2-3rd episode then he really got into it, we both did. I can't wait till season two.
But I forget you are Canadian, and probably have more knowledge about what happened during those early years then we Americans do.
I have a friend in Toronto who when I told her I was binging on it, told me that she couldn't get into it, because she can see the made up bits of it and it aggravates her. LOL.
Also, The Killing is very good. Netflix produced the last season, and it's definitely the best, but I really enjoyed all four seasons.
Dexter is another of my favorites.
If you like comedies, I think Master of None is very well done.
I could go on, but is this for Netflix exclusives, or anything on Netflix???
