Hmmm, got the first season on my list, read some pretty damning reviews so wasnt sure if I should take the plunge.

Ignore the reviews.

Any good thriller/horror/suspense or just boss shows on anything? I've started to watch a French show called Black Spot, it's like the opposite of The Returned or whatever that OTHER French show was. Seems to be a slow burn but wouldn't mind another option.

Have Netflix, Amazon, Disney+(wasn't entertained by The Mandalorian). Been going through and seen some options.

The German series - Dark is very good.

Two series - a real head bender.

First season was spectacular but I felt like they overcomplicated it further in season two.

Only show I’ve ever watched where reading about the episodes on wiki wasn’t even helpful.

I second this. I loved it. Not entirely sure I knew what was going on. I think I did but I could easily be wrong.

You 100% had to watch it continuously otherwise you’d completely lose track of what was going on !

There is Too Old to Die Young if you fancy something looooong. It's good.

Just finishing up on my second run through Detectorists on iPlayer. Superb. One of those ‘gentle’ sitcoms that literally anyone could watch without offence - bit like Dinnerladies, Early Doors, etc. Don’t know why the BBC always buried/buries shows like this on BBC2 or online.

Outstanding - the Pharmacist.

Four part doc just released on Netflix.

The true story of a pharmacist in Louisiana, whose son was murdered during a crack deal gone wrong and how out frustration with the lack of action by the police, tracked down his sons killer.

The documentary then splits off and follows a different path, as during the investigation into his sons death, he became aware of Doctor who was prescribing OxyContin for payment on demand and was prescribing 90% of the OxyContin in the state.

Despite getting virtually no help from the authorities, he then turns his attentions to bringing her down.

Highly recommended.

So the dad of murdered son tracks down both a killer and also a doctor? Confused here.

Going to give it a watch over the weekend,caught my eye after watching a programme about smack addiction in cape cod,just done a couple of episodes of " Locke and key" it's decent but very much a teen type series

He tracks down his sons killer and then during the course of his investigations uncovers a Doctor who is solely responsible for a drug epidemic and goes after her once his sons murderer is behind bars.

It’s very good.

Looked at Locke and Key and discounted it for that reason.

The Stranger (all British) is getting rave reviews.
