^ Alright, well you've seen quite a lot. Deadwood is pretty fucking great, Sneaky Pete's first season was awesome, but one thing in particular just KILLED the second season for me, but other than that it was pretty good and it's almost certainly coming back for a third season. Black Mirror is like a modern version of the twilight zone, but where everything focuses around some aspect of technology. Each episode is its own entity and some of them are great, some of them are meh, and some of them are downright horrible. I was skeptical at first, but there are some pretty fucking great ones that make it well worth the watch. Mindhunters seems painfully bad at first, but get through the first episode and it really picks up. One of the better things Netflix has turned out. The Leftovers is a pretty trippy show, if you enjoyed the other HBO shows on the list, you'll probably enjoy that one as well.

Couple other random comedies I'll throw out then if they're not completely off the table.

Shameless
Bojack horseman
and since you watched the superhero shows, check out Misfits. British show that's pretty funny and based around kids with superpowers. First season or two were awesome, but it just kept getting worse and worse when they started losing cast members and trying to replace them.

Samurai anime is pretty limited if you want something that's actually good, but I'll give you a couple off the top of my head.

Samurai Champloo - Guessing you've probably seen this if you've looked into samurai anime at all, but it's one of the best if not the best.
Basilisk - Decent show about warring ninja clans - Not quite samurai, but pretty close
Afro Samurai - There's a show and a movie, both are short but worth watching. The plot is kinda meh, but the animation is fucking legit and Samuel Jackson kills it.
Sword of the Stranger - Pretty decent movie about a roaming samurai
Ninja Scroll - Older movie, but it does hold up. Some gratuitous nudity in the beginning which can be enough to make some people stop watching, but it's only right at the start, and it's not a movie with heaps of fan service bullshit like loads of newer shows/movies today in the genre.

Hope some of these are at least enjoyable for you, but it seems like you've already watched a bunch of the better stuff. Sorry for my condescending/rude tone, I misunderstood what you were going for, and I apologize for that.


Yup, like I said, I didn't want to list for a reason, lol

I'm not quite into superhero shows, even all the Marvels from Netflix that I watched, as I said, I did cause I had the time. And also, I like bingn shows instead of waiting each week.

I've seen many episodes of Shameless. Some of the stuff, I didn't like. Storyline, stuff I didn't like seeing in a show due to X reasons...

Samurai Champloo... If a movie of this wasn't made, then I haven't seen it. I recall seeing a movie similar to this... But the title might of been different... or I'm recalling wrong. Need to check it out.
The rest, I have and seen.

All good. Words are hard to express properly while typing ;)

But thanks, again. All this should keep me busy for... at least a lil while :thumbsup:

No movie as far as I know, just a 2x episode show that's pretty fucking great. Lmk what you think if you end up watching it.

I'm with you on the subject matter in shameless, but it's easier for me to move on from the past, things I've seen, people I've known, things I've done, if I separate them entirely and realize that a fictional show has zero impact on me or my past addictions, then I'm capable of just enjoying it for what it is, fictional entertainment. That's just me though, everyone else works differently.
