Re: Netflix on a rainy day.
It's "netflix season" now and I see I've saved quite a bit of money not running to certain movies already listed.
As for new programs added, Netflix took on BBC Scotland put out Shetland in 2013 and it's proving to be interesting.
Set in today's World, but has the look and feel of the 1960s, simply because there is little modernity to the Shetland Islands.
It's a murder mystery series and the first two are part one and two, and not obvoius. It's slow. But the charm of it is that it's not NCIS. Thank God for Scotland.
As an aside, I finally realize that their rival SHOMI is no longer. They were late to the streaming party, awkward and I hated that "But I'm a virgin" line.

Not a fan of Ben Afleck, but that was a really great movie

We've rediscovered Downton Abbey last night. There are more seasons added. What a fantastic show.

Is anyone not watching "Narcos"? Totally gripping.

Shout out for "Designated Survivor". Great new show. But you have to catch it from the beginning. Five episodes have aired so far.

I am not watching Narcos. Remember that Esquire magazine article you published here Fluffy? That is enough for me. Unfortunately "El Chapo's" hearing judge was gunned down a month ago, sending a message to all those working in Mexico's justice department as in, "there is none."

I hope they'll add Captain Fantastic soon. I gotta watch that one.

Black Mirror.
A horrifying up date on The Twilight Zone. We watched the first one. That's all I could stand.

The Crown - Netflix original about the reign of Queen Elizabeth. Beautifully made at a cost of $10M per episode.

"Narcos" is actually pretty good. It covers a rough bunch of outlaws to be sure, but it's not graphically disturbing unless your particularly vulnerable to that sort of thing.

Watched all 4 episodes of the BBC documentary Addicted to Pleasure. It was very interesting and really like the historical information regarding Whiskey, Opium, Tobacco and Sugar.
