    Good Series To Get Into?

    On Netflix or Hulu?

    I enjoyed Lucifer, but it's too "Forensic Files"-ish for me.

    Any recommendations?

    (and maybe movies too ;o)

    Continuum on Netflix is good if you're into time travel. Plus the lead actor is a supermodel, so it's quite nice.

    Black Mirror and The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix are good. TV shows have gotten kind of bad in the last 5 years, I find myself going back and watching shows from the last decade more often than not like Lost, BSG, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, etc.

    Not Flix of Hulu but just recently binge watched "The Boys" and "Good Omens" on Amazon Prime. Both i found enjoyable to me.

    WU Assassins maybe? i kinda ignored it at first because the name made me think it wasn't going to be in english.. 3 episodes in it's been pretty entertaining so far. some cheesy CGI at times but still enjoyable.
    I had fun once, it was terrible.

    Jesus, I watched 4 episodes and acting is bad, script is bad and so is directing.

    A couple more that have not been mentioned. Peaky Blinders on Netflix is fantastic. Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, also on Netflix, is a little bit older 7 part mini-series I really enjoyed.

    Also, if you have Amazon Prime, there are a number of really great older series on there including a number of older HBO series like OZ, Six Feet Under, The Sopranos, Eastbound and Down, The Newsroom, Bored to Death, and what is still probably my favorite TV series ever, The Wire. Any newer series on there from HBO you need to pay extra for, but the older ones are included with Prime.

    Oh, and I want to second Dark Really fantastic German series. If you enjoyed Stranger Things but thought it was a bit too cheesy at times, check out Dark.

    Did you finish Lucifer? Because the murder mystery gets increasingly B plot as the show progresses.

    I still haven't watched the final season because I heard it's horrendous. Did you like it?


    Stuff I've enjoyed on Netflix:
    The Marvel shows (except Iron Fist)
    Person of Interest
    Chuck (oldie but goodie)
    I Zombie (though might be too "forensic files")
    Master of None
    Travelers
    The Good Place
    Dark Matter

    Hbo has the best stuff by far, but black mirror on Netflix isn’t bad and futureman on hulu is comedic gold
