This show Ozark is crazy. My wife and I recently started binging on these Netflix series and there are a few really good ones. Ozark's second season was just released and reminds me of a modern Game of Thrones. It is pretty brutal.
We started with Stranger Things which was cool and then Arrested Development which is basically Archer live and very funny, and also watched GLOW.
GLOW was classic. I haven't watched wrestling in 20 years but it's about a slimy director who hires a bunch of actresses to start women's wrestling in the 80s that none of them know a thing about.
I searched this here because I remember threads about Netflix and found some but they wouldn't show when clicked.
What are some more great shows on Netflix or Amazon?

i like the Ranch as well, bit lighter but still good,
Making a Murderer - If you have Netflix and haven't seen this yet, you need to.
Evil Genius - A pretty twisted true crime documentary
The Shop
Someone was telling me about Ozark yesterday. I may have to go ahead and check it out.
Stranger Things was great.
Also liked The Shooter, Punisher and Dare Devil.
Happy
Black Mirror
Mindhunter
If you like music documentaries The Defiant Ones is brilliant.
Not sure if you get Unforgotten on Netflix in the US, but that's a good British crime drama series, as is Line of Duty.
If you have Amazon Prime then I recommend The Shadow Line.
And if you read books, anything by Don Winslow; The Cartel, Power of the Dog, The Force, The Winter of Frankie Machine... all are incredible!
I prefered the series "SIX" that was on History. It was cancelled after season 2 aired this year.
I don't think it's on Netflix or Amazon but if you have the chance check out FX's original series "Snowfall". It's about the early days on the crack cocaine epidemic in Los Angeles in the early 80's. Currently in its 2nd season and will more than likely be picked up for a 3rd season.

Season 2 starts this year.
Synopsis: A multi-generational epic telling of the story of America's birth as a superpower through the bloody rise and fall of one Texas oil empire.
Paramount's Yellowstone with Kevin Costner.
Drama, Western
Season 2 starts in 2019.

Netflix's Godless with Jeff Daniels.
Drama, Western
Mini-series, 7 episodes.
Synopsis: In the 1800's American West murderous outlaw gang leader Frank Griffin (Jeff Daniels) hunts for ex-protege Roy Goode. Frank's chase leads him to La Belle, New Mexico - a town inhabited, after a mining disaster, almost entirely of women.
I've seen the first series of Snowfall, it was on terrestrial TV here in the UK about a year ago. Pretty good from what I recall - I remember an amusing Speedo wearing Russian drug lord

We are hard wired here and have good internet service so never have any streaming issues.
TX.....what's your thought's on possibly ditching the Firebox and getting a PS4 to take it's place? I believe we can load Amazon prime onto the PS4. More capabilities with a PS4 over the box? Not sure if aybe the box itself causes some of the issue's I have.

Animal Kingdom is good.
My understanding is that streaming live TV requires higher quality internet then Netflix needs. It's not necessarily a "speed" issue but a quality of service issue. I have a 100mbps service but it's also very high quality (low latency). So I don't have any buffering issues on VUE.
I've taken pretty good care of setting up my home network. All of my devices are hard wired, and any switches I use are all 1000mbps switches.
Strangely, I have very good internet service, and a neighbor right next to me uses same provider but has very poor service. It can really be hard to pinpoint what the issue is at times.
Fingers crossed my keeps going strong. I have boys playing xbox, girls watching bubble guppies on Amazon, and the wife and I watching live TV through VUE. No glitches at all.
I am feeling like I have lost a loved one currently....
