    "Maniac", with Jonah Hill, Emma Stone, et al...even Sally Fields
    "The Black Phone"

    These have been mentioned before, but since it's Halloween,
    "The Haunting of Hill House"
    "The Haunting of Bly Manor" both directed/written by the same guy, with a few of the same actors/actresses in both...but playing different characters
    I LOVED Maniac, but it’s certainly not fit everyone. Great underrated suggestion.

    Dracula. Turn out the lights, lock the kids in their rooms, and hold on. Outstanding so far!

    My wife and I are enjoying "The Sinner". We're through season 2.

    We thought the "Terminal List" was great.

    We're still trying to figure out how to watch season 6 of "Better Call Saul".
    Also, "Rectified" is proving to be a challenge to watch all the way through.

    I think we've given-up on "The Blacklist"...it's getting too hokey now.

    I really enjoyed "Andor" on Disney+...if you are a Star Wars fan. It is VERY well done.

    Fauda (Chaos) So I stumbled upon this show last week, and got hooked! Israeli action drama that deals with the issues in that part of the world. English subtitles, and over dubs. Already into season 3! Even the Mrs got hooked!

    Great series. I just finished season 3 yesterday. I cannot believe it took me a while to check it out. I was hooked from the first episode.

    What's up with Netflix dvds? I have over 50 in my wait list and many have been there for nearly a year. We have cut back to 1 at a time and mainly stream now due to this. We prefer dvds when we can get them for better video/sound than our streamer.

    We've seen 5 episodes so far. Lots of humor if you pay attention. Got to say, just not having a laugh track is worth the watch. Just finished Loudermilk, another "laughless" worth a watch.

    Just finished the 8 episode of The Gentlemen. I liked it, the Mrs not so much. You may have a hard time with some of it due to cockney dialect.

    We liked The Gentlemen as well. Similar to other Guy Ritchie British gangster movies.

    3 Body Problem is also good. We finished season 1...don't know when it will resume.

    Jody, was that Rectified or Rectify? Rectify with Aden Young was one of the absolute best series I’ve ever seen. It’s pretty intense at times.

    I think I watched Bloodline after that, and enjoyed that one as well.

    It was Rectify, Scott. It's been awhile, and I can't remember the exact issue, but I think after season one, it changed streaming services...or something like that.

    I read a review that said the first few episodes are pretty convoluted but then it gets better. Thoughts so far? Want a new sci-fi to watch with my wife and teenage daughter.

    It's probably been mentioned already, but we just finished all three seasons of afterlife with Ricky Gervais. So very funny and tender and poignant and philosophical. And I cried. So. Dang. Much. It was pretty amazing. I'll probably use some clips in my existentialism class.

    So far so good, just finished episode number three tonight. Hard to say where they're gonna take it and how it will turn out, but yeah I'm enjoying it. I'd say it is worth a watch.

    It hits a lot of my "classic science fiction" buttons, good acting as well, imo.

    I tried reading the book a couple months ago. Just couldn't get into it. I know it gets high praise normally but it was very confusing and slow. Which is pretty much how I found the first episode.

    We saw that too, although at the time my Mom was going through dementia related problems which made it kind of tough to watch, we did enjoy the series. I'm surprised I liked it as I normally don't care much for him.

    We finished The Tourist last night, and recommend it...lots of interesting twists. The first season is set in Australia, and second season in Ireland, so you might need subtitles :D

    Now, we are on to Dark, which is set in Germany.

    If you like Guy Ritchie films, you will probably like The Gentlemen on NF. Finished the series and looking forward to more.

    It was definitely a wild episode. Good series overall.

    We're watching the 2023 Chinese version of the show now (just called 3 Body) on Amazon Prime.

    The Gentlemen has the green light for another season, apparently just depends when Guy Ritchie has the time.

    Finished Blacklist, it lost it's momentum for me earlier on but I had to finish it. Decent but if you don't watch it you're not missing much.
    Started watching Unlocked. It sure is interesting so far. It's not on the edge of your seat at all but an interesting experiment.
