Found The Firm on Amazon . Apparently is was a made for tv series in 2012 and based of the John Grisham book

I put in on the other night when I couldn't fall back to sleep. I'm not 7/22 into the series and enjoying it

Still watching Jack Ryan with my wife, but have lost all interest and only watching because she wants to

Slow Horses and Gangs of London are the current watches. Both very good IMO.

I started watching The Recruit on Netflix. Seems mildly entertaining. I'm 2.5 episodes in and still trying to make sense of how I would characterize it. Anyone else watching it?

Binged all 4 episodes of this limited series. Although not as good as the Henry Cavil led show, I enjoy the genre and thus, I enjoyed this.

Good to see a fellow Banshee watcher. If you liked Banshee I recommend Warrior. Season 3 will be released next year.

Well, sadly, the list should be longer but good shows are hard to find, and some of the above faded as the seasons progressed. Forgot to put GOT.

Ya, Antony Starr before he was Homelander.

Warrior should be right up my alley but I gave up after a season thereabouts, imho unfortunately kinda like the movie Ip Man, the first one is good enough but then it just repeats somewhat w paint-by-numbers villains/factions.


Murf the Surf if you liked Jett, she's in Leopard Skin and I liked that too (maybe same director/producer? not sure, but the feel is similar).

I really enjoyed every series I’ve watched that was recommended in this thread. With one exception - WTF was with White Lotus????? I kept watching it because so many liked it, thinking it would turn. I finished season 1. Will not be watching season two. Granted, the characters were fucked up but….

Give me assassins, terrorists, meth making crazies, CIA shit and forensics by day serial killer by night. This rich, politically correct asshole nonsense you can keep.

Rant over.

By the way, I finished Homeland. Holy shit. It’s at the top of the list.

House of Cards was a good watch. Freaky at times and if you can get past Kevin Spacey and his weirdness as a person, the show itself was really good.

Ya, ofc I know you're joking cmon

It's a toss-up, sometimes I come across a good movie, sometimes there's a staying power coming from a good series. I don't think that the format plays much part. *shrug*

Maybe someone can psycho-analyze me lol. I LOVE the horror genre and I enjoy comedy well enough but I don't actively search that out. I can't remember the last comedy series I've watched, just can't get into it. Same goes for movies.
