It's hard to keep up with all the stuff Netflix is producing. Is there a list of Netflix's current and upcoming original programming? Wikipedia lists stuff like Lilyhammer Hammer and Bad Samaritans.. but do they really count?

Netflix needs to make it clear between Netflix Originals and what they simply have exclusivity to. With stuff like Peaky blinders and The Fall being labeled Netflix Originals, I don't think I even know what 'Netflix Original' means.

Not a huge fan of the series, but I would be interested in this.

Either will do.

Some help in regards to like. I've watched and enjoyed Doctor Who, Scrubs, Glee, House, HIMYM, Community and New Girl. And I'm up for any kind of film. Horror's always good though.

Seems like you are big on shows with comedic elements:

White Collar, Psych, The League, Orange is the New Black, Chuck, Terriers, About a Boy.

Assuming you have watched stuff like: Parks and Recreations, Arrested Development, 30 Rock.

Wow. Netflix had a deal like that with breaking bad? I had no idea. This pleases me.

They had the deal for the last season.

The OP has a big list. I might not have everything and I didn't sort them by Originals vs Exclusive.

If the Netflix - Zelda thing happens is it likely to affect Marco Polo getting further seasons since I imagine Zelda will have a huge budget, as well as both shows being compared to Game Of Thrones.

I dont see why zelda would far and away larger budget than what they been doing.

So, I've never watched Lost when it was on so i decided to check it out on Netflix and I have to say I'm hooked. I'm on season 6, and I'm so damn....LOST. John Locke has to be one of the most complex characters ever on TV.. Like WHAT THE FUCK.

JULIET NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Alternative time universes?? I'm confused

They're only labeled as "Netflix Originals" in territories where the show isn't licensed to a network. The legitimately Netflix "only" shows have ads and teasers shown both on Netflix and elsewhere.

I gave OITNB a shot last night. It seems a bit of a slow burner, but I'll stick with it, see if I can get into it. Never watched Psych or Chuck a watch when they were on TV, so I might give them a watch too. Cheers, GK.

I am certain I have seen all of them in different regions, but it may just have been the Dutch one which is probably pretty much the same.

Oh, 28 weeks later, was thinking of 28 days later. Although I think I had seen 28 weeks later also in a different region.

So I finished season 1 of West Wing. I was going to start watching 24 but apparently it isn't around anymore on Netflix. So I chose Power Rangers instead.

Couple of the things I watched recently not named Coach of which im in the mid 5th season.

Dead Snow 2 : Stands up pretty good against the first, more action packed off the bat and really throughout. Tons of kills and gore.

Hot Pursuit: John Cusack character suppose to go on vacation with his gf but fails a chem test only to get a easy way out by professors spends the movie chasing his gf and her family in the Caribbean as they island hop. Also very young Ben Stiller has a role in this. It was decent

Holes in my Shoes : 94 year old Jack Beers through the documentary tells his life story from being a iron worker, engineer, working manhattan project to being an actor. It was pretty interesting.

Saints and Soldiers and Saints and Soldiers Airborne Creed. Both movies were pretty decent and I enjoyed the setting and location. Not to often when you watch a movie based in the winter you actually get a sense hey they are in the fucking winter and this isnt some set with potato flakes or whatever they use for fake snow

How is Better Call Saul? Anyone watch it?
Click to expand...

i thought it was a pretty good start. I liked the serious Black and White opening and the general tone of the episode seemed about right mixing his cockiness with desperation. We didn't get to see much of McKean yet but he was pretty good for his scene. It was good not to do too many Breaking Bad references. I think the show definitely has potential to be a crazy version of a courtroom drama.

I found the first episode to be pretty good. A word of caution; the episode is a bit slow, but it's set-up as a slow buildup, so in that sense I found it to be pretty great, and I'm definitely excited for the next episode!

I'm really glad to hear the positive reviews. Looks like the show is off to a good start. I'm ok with the slow buildup, BB was the same way.

Reminds me of The Affair minus, well, the affair. I'll give it a shot considering I like Cardellini and Chandler.
