Another TV series that's been on Netflix for awhile is Bloodline if you have not seen it.....about a family living in Florida that have past secrets that were buried but things got out of hand when the black sheep of the family re-surfaces after being away for a long time.  It's a thriller drama series with (3) seasons from 2015 - 2017.  I thought it was pretty good.

 

Stars:  Kyle Chandler, Sissy Spacek, Ben Mendelsohn, Linda Cardellini.  


@SoCal Bred   Sounds good !   Up on m list to watch .  Right is watching Sinner.

The Bleeding Edge

 Flower of Evil

New Amsterdam

Queen Charlotte.  My recent favorite. 

SUITS. Once you get past the first few episodes it gets much better. 
The Night Agent

Flight

 

 

 

 

To get an idea what each is about and see how each is rated, you might want to look at IMBD. I added a shortcut to my desk top for this site and I rely on it. Stranger Things has teens in it, so it probably isn't for you. The Night Agent is about spies, so it's out for you. 


I agree with just about everyone of your suggestions.  Esp.. Extraordinary Attorney Woo - love it.  I would add another one

 

Shtisel -- the best way to describe it would be an ultra orthodox Jewish soap opera.  It is filmed in Isreal and Akiva (one of the characters) is just too cute.


@JillyMarie  Thanks for the recommendations

Are Netflix movies the kind that are made for tv or are there regular movies, too?

Another Netflix movie not to watch:  Annihilation.  This movie is from 2018 starring Natalie Portman and Jennifer Jason Leigh.  I like both of these actors, but the movie was silly.

I have to disagree about the movie Annihilation. I enjoyed it. May not be for everyone but I like Sci-fi movies.

 

ETA

 

@Judaline Yes, Netflix has movies that were released in theaters.

@ArnetteDogwoodI echo Crash Landing on You!  I watched it at the beginning of the pandemic and LOVED it!  I was hoping for a spin-off.

@Shawnie  I absolutely LOVED Crash Landing on You. It was phenomenal!

I also highly recommend Flower of Evil. It was recommending on this thread and it is so good!

Re: Netflix - recommendations???

I am so glad that Shawnie and Skincaremaven LOVED Crash Landing On You. I have rewatched it so many times. Amazon sells merchandise with the show on products. During Covid my mask had them on it and my phone case is of the show. Incase you don’t know the two main characters are married in real life and have a son almost a year old near the end of Nov. Flower Of Evil is really good. So many foreign shows in Korean and Taiwanese on Netflix. It was because of Crash that I got Netflix.
