- Racing Extinction
- The Last Dance - shockingly obsessed
And equally as important as what's on TV... what to make while you're mid-binge!
If you liked Sons of Anarchy, then you must watch Justified. As well, The Shield was a ground-breaking drama series in its day. Broke all the usual rules before The Sopranos hit the airwaves. Am currently enjoying Sneaky Pete, which has a lot of the same production/writing staff and actors as Justified. Good to have binge-worthy shows to watch while self-isolatin/social distancing at home.
Yes, yes, yes re: Justified!
Succession
The Outsiders
Killing Eve
Judging from your must watch TV list, you're in for a treat with Killing Eve. I second Chrissie's recommendation. Thanks for the other rec's!
I loved the Docuseries Cheer
Schitt's Creek on Netflix! One of the funniest shows I've even seen..the current season is on Pop TV.
Have you watched Goliath on Amazon Prime! It's amazing!
Miranda and Kim's Convenience are my top full face bust a smile from your toes inducers
I just started watching The Newsroom. It’s amazing!!
Thanks for all the great suggestions for binge watching! Can’t wait to check them out. One of our favorites I didn’t see on your list is Episodes. It’s hilarious. Not for younger audiences!
All I can say is THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I have watched some of these but have been looking for a list of shows to binge. Look out couch here I come! (sad but perfect for snowy weekend)
Have you watched Schitt's Creek on Netflix? Love, love that show! It's definitely binge worthy!
Old HBO series “The Night of” wish they would do another with detective and prosecutor!
Have you watched Watchmen on HBO with Regina King. Puzzling to put the pieces together, but I’m hooked!
Have you watched Prodigal Son? It kills me that I have to wait a week between episodes but you could binge the first few.
My TV list keeps getting longer, and the snacks get more delicious!
We have the same taste in television! Check out Derry Girls on Netflix - hysterical. Put the subtitles on (the Irish accent can be hard to follow).
Two more binge worthy shows; British & only one season each like Bodyguard and equally intense in their own way.
Both created by Harlan Coben:
