Jessica Jones and Man in the High Castle, both definitely worth it (and if you're a comics fan: binge read 'Alias', which Jessica Jones is taken from.
Not sure what's next. Mostly catching up on my DVR backlog.
I'll second "Making a Murderer" from Netflix.
I've never seen anything quite like it. Even though the 10 episodes are loaded with idiots, scumbags, rednecks, space cadets, incompetents, sleazeballs, liars, perverts and just a few normal folks in a grimy setting it is still a fascinating case filled with twists and turns that seem beyond fiction.
I've also never seen a criminal case covered in such a comprehensive way. At times I felt like a voyeur the way the camera exposed the lives of these people or how willing all the participants were to talk to the camera no matter what was going on.
I don't know if it's available yet, but season 1 of HBO's True Detective was amazing.
I keep hearing good things about it, so we'll have to watch at some point. Both series of True Detective are on Amazon video, so I would assume they are over the pond. Loved series 1, but we were advised that series 2 is quite a drop-off.
My opinion may be in the minority, but I think if Season 2 had lead off the series it would have gotten better treatment. But following Season 1, it was almost destined to be downgraded. Yes, it is a drop-off, but it's a drop-off from amazing.
Imagine the poor bastage who follows Brady here. He may be a very good quarterback, but he will have ginormous shoes to fill.
I've binged on most above now binging on Netflix Midsummer Murders from British TV awesome series
My wife generally hates everything that I like, but she liked this one, so it's a potential "couples" show.
One other show that I found addictive was "The Unbreakable Kimmie Schmidt" on Netflix.
Since there hasn't beem much lighter fare mentioned, I figure this show is worth plugging. Humor is always a subjective thing, but I found this show to be a quirky, smartly-written and funny fish-out-of-water story that a lot of people will like.
Kimmie (Ellie Kemper) is great but, her pal Titus Andromedon is, I thought, laugh out loud funny. He's awesome. Great cast with plenty of star cameos and sometimes it's nice to watch a quick half-hour episode of something that doesn't involve death, blood or explosions.

Yes. Nice series.
More locals murdered than Cabot's Cove.
Eighteen Seasons. 90 minute episodes. Imagine you have a ways to go. Either that or it's an EPIC Binge.

Any suggestions to watch with girlfriend on Netflix, Amazon or Hulu? She's never seen the Walking Dead and said she would watch it because of people at work talking about. Never seen There's Something about Mary which I hope to watch with her tonight, thinking also that she might like Breaking bad and Lost
