If folks haven't watched 'The Good Wife' it is worth a run through. Lots of episodes each season, and 7 seasons, so it takes up some time.

Rectify. It was on Sundance a few years back and on Netflix now. It's only 4 short seasons. Slow moving but very good. It delves into the life of a man who was released from death row after 20 years due to a DNA test and how he and his family adapt (or don't).

Very good show. I think there are some posts on it a little ways back in this thread.

For the love of all that is good and holy--

Drop *everything* and go binge watch "The Queen's Gambit" on Netflix.

It's absolutely *outstanding*. Best thing I think I've seen on television in literally decades.

It's only seven episodes-- the first one or two episodes start fairly slow as they're building the foundation-- after that, it's off to the races.

I've watched it twice and my wife's watched it three times. Every single friend or co-worker we've suggested it to has absolutely loved it.

Watch it. Now. You won't be disappointed.

Obviously...we don't count season 9. They were alright, but no where near the 1st 8.

Honestly Homeland lost our attention around season 4. Stopped watching and lost the care to get back into it. This was a little after Claire started going rogue and dealing with her medical issues.

Some of the later seasons were good. She is really an amazing actress. What they did to Quinn kinda annoyed us.

Billions - Great show. So many great quotes, see link below. The youtube link is one of the best scenes for anyone that knows someone with entitlement issues.

BTW - my wife still doesn't understand why I think that scene is so hilarious.

I don’t think we made it all the way through the first episode on that one. Actually can’t remember.

Series called Harlots is well done IMO. You can guess what it's about.

Either their budget was significantly cut and they to scrap a lot, or the whole idea was not the typical clusterf##k of "twist and stories and sh#t" where at some point you begin to struggle following, but rather "what if we make you doubt yourself"... in which case they underachieved.

P.S. Was pleasantly surprised to see Kidman again, I thought she was cancelled for good.

P.P.S. Elena for some reason reminded me a chubby version of Jennifer Lawrence. Probably took same acting classes.

Yeah, they definitely underachieved, I had hoped for a bit better of a shock and overall more interesting plot. They could have done so much more with Elena, or exploring why Nicole Kidman was even forgetting things she had done, the show had essentially introduced a new idea, and then immediately disregarded it.
