I'm home sick today. Netflix suggestions?

[Laffy Kat]

I'm in the mood for mindless, re-enacted true crime or somethin'.

[TNLib]

1. Making a murder was really good

The People VS Oj Simpson.
Ken Burns documentary on Prohibition
The Witness a documentary

Then for comedy Louis CK and Dave Chappell new stand up acts are out on Netflix

[Laffy Kat]

3. Thanks.

As soon as I get off FB, I'll check a couple of those out.

[Snackshack]

26. "Prohibition"

Is a really good documentary. Anything by Ken Burns is excellent. The Roosevelts, National Parks, Civil War, Jazz, Baseball, The West are all excellent.

[Stallion]

40. ...and the Great War, Part II is on Tonite

Part I which aired last nite can be seen on PBS website

[Snackshack]

44. Cool

Thanks for the heads up!

2. Bates Motel

Really well done prequel series to PSYCHO set in present day with Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore. I'm halfway through season 1. Lots of mysterious intrigue with the town and grey-shaded characters making you switch alliances often.

I also loved Santa Clarita Diet which has Drew Barrymore as an unwitting suburban zombie. It's a comedy mashup of American Beauty, Eating Raoul and Pushing Daisies with a dash of Walking Dead. Clever writing with very quotable lines.

[Laffy Kat]

4. Thx. nt

[WinkyDink]

5. Not "True," but "Foyle's War" is superb! Murder in the midst of London, 1940!

[Laffy Kat]

7. Think I'm caught up on FW. I really enjoy it. nt

[stillcool]

6. I've been doing Brit mystery series...

from beginning to end. I know one was Murdoch mysteries, which led me to others...but the problem I have with mindless television is I don't remember the titles

[Laffy Kat]

8. LOL. I like Brit TV, too. nt

[sdfernando]

9. All 8 seasons of MONK...in order! /NT

[forgotmylogin]

16. Monk was a great show!

It's a good "cozy" mystery and I love Tony Shaloub.

Bones is a good "gory but not usually scary" show and Emily Deschanel is great.

I'd have suggested Hannibal if it were on Netflix. Not cozy!

[WinkyDink]

17. I'm watching "Monk" now, too! I see it twice a day on Hallmark!

[csziggy]

19. Great suggestion - if you don't watch MONK in order, you've messed up

It has to do with OCD or something.

[sdfernando]

22. I have to touch something...and

Shrug my shoulder.

[madaboutharry]

10. Grace and Frankie

Seasons 1 thru 3. Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, San Waterson, and Martin Sheen. The chemistry is amazing.

[zanana1]

29. Grace and Frankie...

Hilarious and refreshing!

[Phoenix61]

11. Miss Fischer's Murder Mysteries

Set in Australia in the 20's. Miss Fischer is a wealthy, young, single woman who does exactly what she wants to do. Worth watching just to see the vintage cars and planes.

[madaboutharry]

30. I loved this series.

Every episode was well done.

[CherokeeDem]

12. Midsomer Murders....

British murder mystery in its 19th season.... just a lot of fun...

Feel better!

[crazycatlady]

13. Drugs Inc

Good documentary series on the business of the drug trade. Fascinating

[Laffy Kat]

25. Thanks for the recommendation.

Don't know why I haven't already watched.

[GregD]

14. Prison break series?

[Laffy Kat]

15. Ended up watching something completely different.

Sort of accidentally started watch "Louis CK 2017". Laughed so hard I cried. IMO his best yet. I know he is coming to town here in July and I think I'm going to go see him live.

[SticksnStones]

18. Listen to the podcast S Town

Riveting...

[shenmue]

20. Kung fu movies

[TeamPooka]

21. Netflix and pills. nt

[LoveMyCali]

23. Supernatural

I've become obsessed and have finally made it most of the way through season 7. There are 11 seasons on Netflix and I'm already worried about what to watch next.

[Laffy Kat]

24. Talked me into it! nt

[LoveMyCali]

32. So is it just me

Or were you also hooked after the first couple of episodes?

[Laffy Kat]

33. I'll let you know! nt

[honeylady]

27. The 100 - fabulous - also enjoyed the Travellers nt

[Callmecrazy]

41. Travelers was great...

So was Sense8.

[zanana1]

28. Nurse Jackie...

Or my favorite, "Shameless".
Not crime flicks but so much fun.

[Generic Brad]

31. The Amanda Knox documentary was good

It wasn't exactly mindless, though.

[yellowdogintexas]

34. " 'Allo, 'Allo" on Netflix; Royal Pains; Criminal Minds

all very good.

[AmandaRuth]

35. my spousal unit just

binged 13 Reasons Why (new netflix series) and can't quit talking about it. loved it but, not sure, but I don't think it is crime

[Yavin4]

36. If you need to get some sleep, watch "Iron Fist"

That will put you to sleep right away. The first Marvel story about corporate intrigue. Wow, fascinating.

[Little Star]

37. Longmire is really good.

[lunatica]

38. Start watching anything because you don't have to commit to any show

I usually give them 2 or 3 episodes to grab me. It they haven't gotten me interested by then I just move on to something else. That's the other part of the beauty of Netflix. No commitment is necessary.

[lunatica]

39. Jessica Jones

I loved it! It's gritty the heroine is a private eye who drinks and smokes and cusses and has some superpowers. It somewhat dark.

The villain is truly villainous!

It's only one season but I'll definitely watch it if another season comes along.

[athena]

42. Foyle's War.

A beautifully made production with a great lead character.

[trof]

43. Hold it. Home sick for...where?
