The only Netflix originals I watch are HoC and OITNB.

OITNB would be my favorite by a narrow margin. I just love the character development in that show and how we slowly learn more about their intertwined histories alongside the main prison storylines.

How did you like it, the movie was very good, but I just didn't think Neil Patrick Harris can pull it off. But it still sounds interesting. Injust started watching Lillyhammer a week or two ago, and I really like it.

I just binge watched the OA from start to finish, and I loved it. I hope it gets another season, which it will. But there are a lot of loose ends to tie up, and immediately afterwards I went on Reddit to see people's theories on them and it was pretty interesting.

It's good. Similar to the movie with the first three stories, and then with the fourth book tacked on as a bonus. but with more of the VFD and "secret organization" subplot tied in. Long-form television is just so much better-suited for this series than a movie. Now, they can keep going and make episodes out of all the books. Season 2 already confirmed for Books 5-9.

At first it was a bit hard to take NPH seriously as a truly sinister villain, but eventually you get used to it and his performance is fantastic. Dramatically over-the-top evil just like in the books.

You should have had an option in there for the Marvel batch of TV shows. I'd put Daredevil and Jessica Jones in that list on their own.

Otherwise, niche as heck, but Marco Polo.

So I just watched the entire first season of horror-comedy Santa Clarita Diet in one weekend.

Show is crazy. It's like if the dark themes of Dexter or The Walking Dead got mashed into a feelgood family sitcom.

Bojack Horseman remains my favorite netflix series. The first few episodes suck, but that was the point. It snowballs from an irreverent goofball comedy to the darkest, most heartfelt animated show I've seen. The combination of dark wit and reflections on life in general, combined with a lot of goofball moments make it my favorite Netflix original.
