Seem to have created division between Ozark and Narcos.
Sorry @PaddyJames but your comments duly noted but I dived right into Ozark after @COYBL25 5 recommendation and after first episode I'm hooked.

You think you have problems. @COYBL25 has banned me from watching Dark.He said I had to wait till Lent FFS. Gotta a feeling I will be in lockdown until the new stadium is built on this one lol

In fairness I watched a couple of Narcos episodes when I first got Netflix and liked what I saw. So I know what to expect. But you'll know what I mean when I say there's that much variety and good things on there that pretty soon you start roaming programmes. I will drop onto Narcos after Ozark but three hours of my life has now been invested in that and its a relatively small series so I reckon I'll be on it soon.

I can't watch more than one at a time. I fully invest in one if I make it past the first 3/4 episodes. Struggled with Ozark it's probably one of the only ones I've stopped half way through then gone back to. The third series is really good but I struggled with the second series.

It took me about 4 goes at Breaking Bad, I'd get 3 episodes in then swerve it. it was pure peer pressure that made me finally submit and plough through. I'm glad I did because it's ace. We are truly spoilt with stuff like this to watch.

Notable mentions of stuff I've watched the last few years and loved:

Power
Homeland
The Wire (I was late to this)
Sons of Anarchy
House of Cards
Succession

Narcos is very, very good to start, but for me it started to dwindle to the end of Season 3 although it was still good. I'd recommend it to anyone.

On the otherhand, Narcos Mexico is the runt of the family that gets hidden when you have visitors because you're embarrassed.

Yeah series 3 isn't as good as the first 2 but I think thats because you get used to certain characters.

Mexico took me a second watch to properly get it but by the end of the 2nd series its absolutely superb and I can't wait for the next one.

I'm the first three episodes of Ozark. Things still at the scene setting stage and random things going on but I accept that but it promises good things.

Breaking Bad I blitzed over a few months and I'm glad I did.

The Wire was a funny one for me in as much I'd heard good things about it but only watched a few of the very last episodes and became hooked. So much so I bought the entire box set of dvd which for some reason I still possess.

The remainder I can see me enjoying House of Cards, and Succession mabe SOA not so much.

From your list I saw all the Homeland as they were screened.

I stopped watching House of Cards in 2016 when Underwood ended up being a pale imitation of the actual US president.
