I know I shilled for The Expanse in my previous post, but if you like science fiction, you really should watch this show. Newest episode will be tomorrow. It's like Game of Thrones, but in ****ing space. 

Here's the first episode:

I might've posted about this in this thread before, but it bears repeating: if you are looking for top notch television, Deadwood is the way to go. 

I just finished my third rewatch of all three seasons and I am as struck by it this time as I was when I first experienced it. What a great, great show.

Al ****ing Swerengen - best name evah.

Putting off watching Netflix's Making a Murderer. Along with the movies The Big Short, Experimenter, Stanford Prison Experiment - Quadruple bill of just how sh*&ty human beings can be to each other.

No, just Making a Murderer.  Already saw a couple of the movies. Will eventually watch it. Heck, even PBS did a piece on it.

Ah, gotcha. Did you watch Stanford Experiment? Seems interesting, but also a bit creepy for my liking.

It was bloody disturbing but tbh, background watched it and parceled it out "watching" it in sections because it was hard to take. I have no problems with the scariest of horror movies, but this... As I understand it, Das Experiment was a similar movie and then there was an American remake.

My wife has been bingeing on Nurse Jackie.  I've caught a few episodes here and there, and it's pretty damn good.

No, it's a Hulu exclusive. Like House of Cards for Netflix and Transparent for Amazon. If you have a Roku/Apple TV/Fire TV/Chromecast, Xbox, Playstation or a smart tv, then you could do the one month free trial, but the show will probably run longer than that.

I canceled Hulu a long time ago because of the commercials and some content you cannot play through a streaming device and was already subscribed to Netflix and Amazon, but I'll be re-upping for the duration of the series.

Ok cool, thanks. Would waiting for the whole series to run and then getting the free month be an option? Binge in them all in a week?

Doh, should have though of that. That would be better than my suggestion.
