Ghosts on iplayer is a pretty good laugh. Finished godfather of harlem on prime recently and thought that was decent

I'm now thinking of box sets in the same quality league as The Sopranos that could put it outside a top 10
I don't agree these do but could be regarded as possible
and others can chime in with classics
So ; The Wire
Boardwalk Empire
MadMen
West Wing
Narcos
Breaking Bad
The Crown
The Shield
WHYG
So what others are possibles?
I have just finished it. And I was wrong and underestimated how good it is over all. It’s up there with the best.
Far too harsh!
I was def too harsh initially.
House of cards (first three seasons are amazing)
Homeland (first three seasons)
Sons of anarchy
Game of thrones
Would all make my top 10.
Okay
I’ve watched all those
HOC-loved it first 3series
Homeland-hit &miss but I do like it but not in same league
GOT-loved it but not in same league
SOA-I binged that through lockdown1 and it was a guilty pleasure but that shouldn’t be quoted in this company.

I'm late to the party, but currently watching Mindhunter and think it might be the best series I've seen in a long time.
Finished watching The Handmaid's Tale S1-3, on Prime. Wife and I have really enjoyed it and though it's very different to the book at times, allows the plot to continue.
We're both looking forward to S4 now.
Lately, I've been watching Tribes of Europa on Netflix.
Haven't finished the series yet, but so far it's not bad once you get past the dubbing. The opening 5 minutes reek of teen drama and I nearly stopped watching, but the tone changes pretty quickly.
It's basically a political thriller set several years post-Brexit.
Another heads up for Godfather of Harlem
V v good
Watched zero zero zero
Not quite as good as I was expecting but worth a watch

Don’t know if it’s been mentioned yet but 4 Blocks is well worth watching on Prime.
It needs subtitles as in German
Another vote for Tribes Of Europe, not sure if it’s been mentioned but Lupin was very good.
Just been watching one of the original James Herriot episodes. Brilliant. There was a scene where he was up to his armpit in the back of a cow trying to sort out the calf's legs. I remarked to my wife that it reminded me of when I helped her give birth to our daughter on the bathroom floor. My comment did not go down well! 😁
The new one on netflix, behind her eyes, ie very good. Bit of a slow starter but gets really good and only 6 episodes so not the longest watch

Snowpiercer is not bad - really liked the original novel and movie, the show is a bit of a different take but quite enjoyable nonetheless
Wandavision, it evolves very quickly.
Netflix.
White House farm.
Jeremy Bamber murders.
Six episodes total.
Very good.
Zero zero zero
Devils
I am very late to the party with this one, but thanks to the previous posters for the recommendation.
Ultimately I really came to enjoy this, but you do have to get through the first few episodes before it becomes comfortable. The main issue (for me) was the main characters are so dislikeable and annoying that it made it uncomfortable to watch. It was obviously the intention to make them dislikeable, so it just takes a while to settle in.
I assume you don't mean All Creatures Great and Small?

I tried for a season and a half with schitt's creek and just don’t get it. Mildly amusing, not at all heart warming and generally a bit meh.
I think I am probably missing something because it is so popular but I have tried.......

The Terror is now on iPlayer. I haven't watched it, but it's supposed to be great. Few years old now, and I'd almost given up on getting to watch it for free, but that's my weekend sorted.
Ah, no, the title didn't show on Tapatalk...
I watched the first two episodes last night - First was glacial and not (I thought) a great opening, but the second was better.
Not sure how they're going to stretch it over 10 episodes without it being very slow, though, to be honest...

Ridley Scott’s Terror, bloody brilliant! Hats off to the BEEB

Just started Bates Motel on BBC iPlayer, completed first series and now onto second. Good characters and actors, Twin Peakish but without the total Lynch weirdness. Lynch stuff is hard to touch, but this does not take away from Bates Motel.

Been watching Future Man on Prime. An acquired taste for sure and if you don’t like Seth Rogan you won’t like this! But I think it’s great.
I binged The Wilds on prime last weekend, I do love a shipwrecked/survival situation!
Not new, 'Outlander' on Amazon Prime video, I've just binge watched five seasons and there' a sixth season currently in the making.
Been back several pages in the thread and haven't seen a mention for the Netflix series Your Honor with Bryan Cranston. I'm only four episodes in to the 10-episode series but it draws you in quickly. Without giving anything away, you can tell the mistakes that Cranston's character is making in his attempt to cover things up in the first episode but I guess without those, there wouldn't be much of a programme.
I just finished watching The Terror on iPlayer. The supernatural elements were woven in very subtly from early on accompanying the real horrors of isolation, cold and heavy metal poisoning.
I didn't make it to the end of the 1st episode - I often struggle with historical dramas because they frequently take liberties with the actualité but this takes it to a completely different level. Probably my loss for being unable to suspend disbelief but I thought the budget and the amount of acting talent was wasted on a horror film (which I'll admit is not my thing anyway) - at least Hammer House of Horror had the occasional pair of tits. Michael Palin must be turning in his coffee table.
I’m sure it’s been mentioned previously,
Cobra Kai on Netflix
We just finished Call my Agent on Netflix. It deserves the good reviews it gets.
Unusual as it is in French with English subtitles so occasional ‘”go back a bit’” button presses should be anticipated.
The story is of a talent agency placing their actors with movies, the scheming to get them the jobs and the unreason requests of their actors/clients.
Worth a watch..
Has anyone watched devils? Any good?

After recommending the Terror on here a few weeks ago, I finally got around to watching the first episode, hated it, gave up half way through. Then I decided to carry on, and I think it's good. Perhaps very good.
Also been watching The Mandalorian. It's so beautifully realised that it makes the abysmal A-Team storylines even more frustrating.
Also watching a few episodes of House here and there. That could never fly these days. He's a racist, sexist bully who'd be sacked before he even got to say "it's not lupus" on his first patient.
