Brehs, they bout to go in :whoo: :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_original_programs_distributed_by_Netflix

Narcos is definetly going to have the game on smash:

The series will chronicle the life and death of Escobar, the ruthless boss of the Medellin Cartel and a known terrorist who was also a congressman, a family man and revered by the poor as a new Robin Hood.




Sense8 is a coinflip: JMS is a LEGEND, but the wachowskis fukking suck dikk. This shyt could go either way:



The 10 episode season one of "Sense8" marks the first foray into television by the Wachowskis, the filmmakers behind Bound, The Matrix, The Matrix Reloaded, The Matrix Revolutions, V for Vendetta, Speed Racer and Cloud Atlas, and is the latest project from veteran show runner J. Michael Straczynski, creator of the Hugo Award-winning "Babylon 5" TV series and whose film credits include Changeling, Thor and Underworld Awakening.

“The series follows eight characters around the world who, in the aftermath of a tragic death, find themselves linked to each other mentally and emotionally,” he told Deadline. “They can not only see and talk to each other as though they were in the same place, they have access to each other’s deepest secrets. Not only must they figure out what happened and why and what it means for the future of humanity, they must do so while being hunted by an organization out to capture, kill or vivisect them.”




They got some fire from the creators of Damages:

the new series centers on a family of adult siblings whose secrets and scars are revealed when their black sheep brother returns home.

So far the only show I like is House of Cards. I got about 15 minutes into Season 1, Episode 2 of OITNB but it's just not my thing.

Narcos seems interesting.

I cut my cable recently and have Chromecast so I'm kind of out of the loop on tv.
The coli needs to give up these HBO Go/Showtime Anytime passwords, man

:sadcam:

Come on breh, this shyt aint even close.

Maybe if Netflix keeps pumping out hits for 10 more years you can bump this thread and we'll have the discussion.
Yeah but the first 2 seasons of House of Cards is up there with anything HBO has done in the last 15 years.


HBO has passed on some great shows (Walking Dead and, I believe Breaking Bad).
And I had read that Deadwood should have gone a lot longer but I don't know what killed the series.

They've had a good start...but they need another 10 years of high level execution to even be considered with GOATS like Show and HBO.

Lilyhammer was an interesting show...PROPS

House of Cards....:wow:

OISNB........:obama: I see what they did there........

Hemlock Grove.......Mad interesting.....But this is a make or break season......


Also, don't forget....Amazon trying to catch up and lap Netflix in the original series genre.....Its a win for the customers cause competition forces you to pump out better product at fair prices...

You'll probably either like it or hate it....

Its a slow reveal of all the characters involved and relies on revealing secrets about the plot\characters every other 1.5 shows.

You know how some show where the plot is laid out in the first episode and everything else is reactive afterwards....

Well this is different in a sense you have no idea what is really going on until like the 8th episode(at least that's how I remember it)

There is a bromance(no homo) between the 2 teen stars,,,and they way they interact with each other is intriguing,,,,,its like dark and nurturing at the same time....

Its like the producers used a big budget to produce an indie style supernatural flick with a dark artsy feel to it....

It tries to force a mood and make the characters better than the plot........

The werewolf transformations are mad unique......And one of the main characters is Jean Grey from X Men if that means anything

It takes about the fourth episode to really get going,,,,,and imo, this is a show you have to marathon watch to appreciate....

The transition to scenes seemed clunky at times and there were some story arcs that didn't get tied up in the finale........but all in all, it was an interesting attempt to merge goth and mainstream vibes in a supernatural flick.....
