Many thanks for the suggestions.

I did previously get it about a year ago and watched 'Pablo' about the Cocaine baron Pablo Escobar.

It was quite well done but you have to be really, really interested in the life and times of Escobar to watch through like 10 hours of bio-drama. It dragged on a bit.

If my wife gets into binge watching something I started, then it should be pretty good.

Examples:
1. Longmire
2. Hell on Wheels
3. Pandemic
4. Sons of Anarchy (she passed on this due to graphic violent content)

In addition to her finds include Ozark, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, and The Wire.

I forgot about Narcos. If you like that, you'll like Narcos.

I really enjoyed The Crown, and my wife likes Outlander.

I'll also give a big vote for Longmire. Old school Sheriff and a pickup in Wyoming...what more do you need?

We liked Stranger Things, The Umbrella Society, Rust Valley Restorers, Continuum, Dark Matter, Enterprise. (We like sci fi stuff apparently)

There have been many others...

Love, Death and Robots was another hit with me. It's an animated anthology of weird tales along the lines of The Twilight Zone. Episodes are short so it's worth a try if you like that kind of thing.

I suppose that recommendations depend on what type of shows you like. My recommendations may or may not match your tastes.

If you can find it, one of my all time favorites was Justified.

We just wrapped up the first three seasons of The Crown, which was very entertaining and well produced. Just started The Outlander which is off to a good start so we are looking forward to catching up.

Looks like I will be checking out Norsemen and Altered Carbon too. Annoyingly, Weeds is not available on Netflix in the UK, else I wouldn't mind watching that again.
Just an update to say thanks to suggestions in the thread. Have just completed Season 1 of Altered Carbon, which I enjoyed very much. Am also liking Norsemen, which is very silly, though I can't look at Jarl Varg without thinking of Richard O'Brien.
