    Post yours here. Doesn't have to be a Netflix exclusive movie or series, just anything interesting that is available.

    I saw a pretty fun comedy/horror movie called The Babysitter the other day, it's a Netflix movie. Far from the best thing on NF but worth a watch.

    Bojack Horseman, great cartoon show that gets better with every season.

    The Seven Five, documentary about corrupt cops in 1980s Brooklyn.

    Just a couple off the top of my head.

    It was trashy, but I kind of liked "GLOW".

    The documentary it was based on is also available on Netflix and kind of interesting (and sad at the same time).

    1922 was pretty good, especially if you like psychological thrillers. Good performance by Thomas Jane.

    It's got some pretty neat footage in it. Most episodes drag around the middle, but the beginning and ending bits can get pretty tense.

    That actually does sound pretty cool. I am always shocked to hear just how much acreage burns in those firea.

    Good series. I watched the series first and then the documentary. Glad I did it in that order. Can see clearly the correlating characters. Can't wait for season 2.

    Same here. I was under the impression the series was almost entirely fictional outside of the name of the wrestling organization, but it has a ton of common threads with the doc.

    I really thought he was going to make some anti-liberal argument about wildfires. :)

    I already got Anthony telling me there's no correlation between, drought, dead trees and brush, and wildfires..............like it will open up some Stranger Things type porthole over Anthony's head and dump him into an upside down world of "Climate Change" and "Liberal Science", if he just admits to a simple correlation that has absolutely nothing to do with politics whatsoever.

    Nah man, it's the wind (weather duh!), and a shadowy group of environmental arsonists bent on destroying the American way of life for responsible fire owners everywhere.

    :p

    Predestination is very underrated, a future cult classic

    On your doc list I've seen "Icarus" and "Fastball". Good stuff. Especially "Icarus".

    Probably saw a large portion of "The Civil War" 25+ Years ago when it first came out. Fuck, that makes me feel old!

    I think I mentioned it in another thread, but "Long Shot" is another decent shorter doc on Netflix. About an episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" saving a guy from death row.
