I hope they make another season. I like those types lf shows. I will try Caliphate next.[/quote] Caliphate isnt as good and slower pace but it's real good. Fauda is non stop edge of your couch :)[/quote]

Thanks. I don't think anything will apprpach Fauda. That show ruined it for the others. The other Netflix recommendations don't measure up.[/quote] WAIT !!! Have you seen bodyguard on netflix ? british Drama like 6 episodes[/quote]

That one looked pretty good. I guess you liked it. I will watch it. Thanks.[/quote] Trust me watch that one first ! Its a UK Fauda just as fast paced[/quote]

Cool. I just finished watching the second and final season of Counterpart. Starz series about secret agency that travels between parallel worlds, stars J.K. Simmons. Enjoyed it.[/quote] Yeah I started watching it had to stop after 2nd season certain episode for weird reason. but yeah its a great concept

I thought it was excellent MJM, really enjoyed the short series.
 
finished narcos. first 2 seasons were very, very good. third season was very good. since 95 plus % in the show was accurate, those 2 cartels have to be the greatest criminal groups of all time for money/murder. one nugget was when they were talking about, since nafta started they were able to smuggle over 90% of their drugs with no issues.
 
[quote="SJUFAN2" post=389438]Anyone watching Showtime's Penny Dreadful: City of Angels?[/quote] I am. I have to see it through given I have already invested several hours in this but I don't know if I would recommend it to anyone. I do like Nathan Lane but he seems out of his element here.

I have watched every episode so far. Trying to figure out how it all comes together.
 
[quote="SJUFAN2" post=389438]Anyone watching Showtime's Penny Dreadful: City of Angels?[/quote] Penny Dreadful is kind of like Barley Souo for me. I eat it because Nathalie makes it sometimes but I couldn’t really tell you if I like it or not. Nathan Lane is great actor the jury is out for me on this

I'm like you and Panther. I've watched it all, and its interesting to a degree but I'm not sure yet if I like it or not. Lane is a great actor. Certainly helps that he's in it.

I watched the first Penny Dreadfull. Liked the first season but it went off the rails for me after that. Was really dark.

I haven't watched this week's episode yet but will fifth the opinion that I'm unsure what the point is, and it's not nearly as good as season 1 of the first iteration, though I didn't mind the other seasons of the original as much as some here apparently.

It is both. The Israeli dialogue is in English. When the Palestinians speak it is subtitled.
 
Anyone else watching Tuesday night 10pm USA network's Dirty John the Betty Broderick Story? Surprisingly good with nice work from Christian Slater and a great performance by Amanda Peete.

Can't wait for it each week. Talk about a wacko played by Amanda Peet.
 
[quote="JackofVirginia" post=391154]Another one of my favorites is Snowfall. Anyone else?[/quote]

Yes. Good call Jack. That's an excellent show.

Started watching Fauda and did not think that I’d like it because of the cc. But you get caught up in the story and the action. I’ve seen the 1st 2 seasons and look forward to viewing the 3rd.
 
I know it’s mostly tv shows discussed in this thread, but I saw the movie Knives Out the other night (it’s on amazon prime video) and thought it was really good with a great cast.

Also, Ana De Armas wowwwww she is something
