American Horror Story has been shit since season 3.

DESIGNATED SURVIVOR. Two seasons, first with 20 episodes, second season 22 episodes. Kiefer Sutherland is main character. If you liked 24, you will like this series on NETFLIX. [blaster]
It had so much promise. I also thought, having loved '24' that it was going to be a perfect next step. Then they grabbed the steering wheel and yanked it so far left it was sickening. Nearly gave up when they spouted "86% of Americans want universal background checks on gun purchases, it's common sense.". Then it just got way worse with the rhetoric. I won't spoil it for those that for some reason want to watch it but what a shame. Great premise to a show. Be it he declared to be independent I would expect better than a liberal dreamland on screen.
I liked the first half of the first season, then it just turned to SJW shit for me and I didn't bother watching any of it after the first season.
On a lighter note, if anyone liked the quirky cold-war series "Deutschland83" a sequel "Deutschland86" just started streaming on the Sundance Channel with most of the original cast. Not sure when it'll hit the Netflix/Hulu/Amazon feeds, sorry.
Castlevania season two is out. Not sure if anyone watched season one, but thought it was worth a mention.
Patriot Season 2 is out on Prime. Great show if you haven't seen it.
Here is a list of all the new stuff coming to Netflix in December.

On AMC: The Little Drummer Girl. Pretty good so far - set in the late ‘70’s, follows a British actress recruited by the Israeli Inteligence service to be a spy. (The commercials are pretty onerous, so I’ll be recording future episodes so I can fast-fwd through them).
Ok, I?m a moron. I searched Prime and found a series called ?Original Patriot?, and wondered if that was what you were talking about. After about 15? of researching it, I realized the selection was a ?Prime Original?, Patriot, not.. nevermind. Long day. Gonna give it a shot.
You'll be glad you did. Sorry for not making it clear it was a prime original.
Don't think it's a vikings related one. It's (if it's the one you're thinking) about Robert the Bruce.

Danes? why didn't you say so

Maybe The Last Kingdom? If so, it is based on a series of books by Bernard Cornwell- http://www.bernardcornwell.net/the-l...saxon-stories/
Cornwell is best known for his Richard Sharpe stories based on the British Army in India and during the Napoleonic wars in Portugal, Spain, and Belgium. He is an excellent historical fiction writer IMO and if you can get past the formulaic mode of his writing, and have a love for history, the books are well worth the read.
I haven't seen all of the film adaptation of his books. Most of them do a poor job of finding actors who actually look/sound anything like the characters in the books.
Yep. Last Kingdom. That's it.
Liked the previous season well enough but I'm just not getting it this year. Two episodes in & I don't know or care what's happening.
Haha Kazoo : p
Just finished 'Altered Carbon'. Story line is well done, some thought provoking ideas. Overall, a good series.
Currently on Season-3 of 'Luther', Idris Elba as a British detective. Outstanding series with a defective detective and an overarching good vs. evil, with a splash of Holmes vs. Moriarty twist. The episodes are not entirely stand-alone, you really need to start from the beginning.
If you like Anime, ONE PUNCH MAN doesn't suck. Friend of mine told me they just announced a second season which is how I found out about it. I don't have to wait 4 years like the rest. Netflix. Ha!
Friend showed my One Punch Man. It's great if you have anime experience. There is another Netflix original called Ajin that is fantastic. I've recommend it before, but it was before you were around. Two seasons of Ajin. Ajin is more modern guns than martial arts.
Season 4 is suppose to be a 2 hr show, like the Sherlock Holmes on PBS were. I'm hoping they do a 4-5 hour in 1 hr episodes.
Luther is another one of those sleeper shows only the brits can do well.
Idris Elba was good as Stringer Bell in The Wire, he hasn't disappointed in this or a few others things we've seen him in.
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
Netflix
Finished Peaky Blinders over the weekend. Great series !!!
I don't think its a requirement, though it would certainly give context to the parodies of all the characters. If someone doesn't know, I don't think it takes away from the brilliant interest & disinterest of hero from Saitama. Plus the mostly subtle adult humor is refreshing. I like all the random images in the opening credits that have absolutely nothing to do with the tv series too. Just good fun.
S3 of Frontier
S3 of Travelers just dropped on Netflix.
I've been hearing recent that Ranch on Netflix is supposed to be pretty funny.
