I read this week Netflix just picked up another 2 years of Narcos.
The bad news is only 1 more year of Bloodline and only 10 episodes.

Mr Robot had been really good and Gotham will be returning soon.

Only two episodes left of Narcos. What a show! It definitely rose to my favorites.

Well, what can I say, first episode got me in. The movie geek in me really appreciated the use of lights and the camera angles. I'll go on.

oh right Gekkko, yeah it's good, suffers a bit from - "i'm a troubled character so i'm going to fuck this up for everyone, which leads to cathartic destruction of nice plan event, OMG cliffhanger, resolved by next week when it's someone else's turn to do something stupid, probably as a result of the previous character's event"
Maybe i'm just tired of that in real life *sighs*

^ Oh yes, that's true. But so far it's more interesting than Mr Robot (to my eyes, at least).

^ yeah I'm interested in looking at series2 of Mr Robot, was quite good.
have you seen 'person of interest'? I quite liked that. tiny bit x-filesy bit of action, some slightly glossed over tech.
I think there is a second series of Halt and catch fire, not feeling the need to watch it.

Westworld... Hits all my buttons a must see for the science fiction fans. On HBO and a 50 million a year budget I dare say epic. (RIP Vinyl)

A new Season 3 (6 episodes) of Dark Mirror this month, I think Netflix has taken it over.

Side note Lord Robin Taylor continues to kill it as Oswald Cobblepot aka Pengiun on Gotham. Cobblepot for Mayor!

Finished with the second season of "Les Revenantes". Still creepy, good acting, beautiful filming and worth a look if you want to try a French twist to the zombie genre. Admit though that I did not get into this second season as much as the first. Not sure why really...probably me and not the returners. Honour to the creators for tying up all the loose ends from the first season and explainig a lot of questions that were leftovers after first. Might also be that all the explaining sort of overshadowed the creepy magic from the first season. I do really recommend it though, give it a shot, and be creeped out. But leave the logic in your bike shed!

Recently finished Les Revenants and I agree that the first season was more mysterious. I did not really get the end of the second. What happened to the cops and what was this cult about? Maybe I missed some key scenes because of looking at the subs or whatever but it was an interesting show.

If you have answers, please write it in spoiler tags.

Just got notified on Netflix about the new season of Black Mirror. Looking forward.

Some thoughts on "Les Revenants".

http://www.avclub.com/tvclub/forget-exp ... s-s-230040
The cops were found dead in the woods, hanging in trees. The cult were just some kind of death cult as I understood it.
