    It's pretty light but I found it super entertaining and often laugh out loud funny.

      I've just started House of Cards (4 episodes in) on Netflix.

      My all time favourite (binge) watching shows include;

      The West Wing (all time fave, and have re-watched a few times)
      The Wire
      Game of Thrones
      Breaking Bad
      Entourage (as a light/easy watch)
      Dexter (up until the last season)
      Friday Night Lights

        Just started Justified , as mentioned it is pretty light but I am enjoying it so far.

        Also just finished series one to three of Parks and Recreation.
        Bit slow to start with and took until the second season for me to get into it, but I really enjoyed the third season.

          Assuming you mean Parks and Recreation I agree, first series is a bit of a slow set-up but it hits it's stride during series 2 and 3 & 4 are brilliant. It's Amy Poehler's show but the whole cast are great particularly Rob Lowe in 3 & 4.

            I did , I think the late cricket night cricket viewing is catching up with me.

              Watching The Americans right now about a set of Soviet spies living in America undercover during the early 80's. It's about marriage as much as it's about espionage though.

                Agree with the love for Parks and Rec. Very funny show. Highlights for me was the Animal Control guys-they were totally switched on.
                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  Thanks to bornadog for getting me onto Netflix. Being doing a lot binge watching the last 4-5 months hence i haven't posted a lot on here.
                  In that time i've seen Breaking Bad from start to finish, has lived up to the hype & then some. Brilliant!
                  Dexter from start to finish, crap ending but a brilliant show.
                  Peep Show seasons 1-8. Just finished season 8 last night so thinking of what to watch next. Looking for a show thats been going for a few seasons so it will keep me going for a while.
                  For all the Netflix users out there. I came across something on the net that allowed me to switch my netflix to a different country. Just wondering if anyone else has gotten on to this? Its allowed me to see the seasons of Dexter & Breaking Bad that i couldn't get i my US netflix.

                    Have you tried Hulu Plus? they tend to have a lot more current shows. What vpn did you sign up with? I am with unblock-us.

                    I just finished season 2 of House of Cards. Absolutely brilliant, the script is well done and Kevin Spacey is an amazing actor.

                    PS: A couple of nights this week my internet played up a bit so I couldn't watch House of Cards properly on Netflix, so I down loaded from the Foxtel Catchup service. I must say what a rip off Foxtel is, the quality of the download isnot HD . Last night I watched the final two shows through Netflix and the quality was so much more superior. We really do get ripped off in this country with technology and HD viewing.

                      I'm using unblock us as well. I tried Hulu plus but find that other Netflix around the world have a lot of things Hulu plus has so its cheaper to have the one subscription & just change my netflix country depending on what i want to watch.
                      Foxtel would be better quality but would rather pay $15 a month then what you would pay for foxtel. Not sure how much Foxtel is these days though.
                      Interested in House of Cards but there is only 2 seasons so far & i hate getting into something & then waiting a whole year for another season.

                        House of Cards is a must see. You will thank me after you watch it.

                          To watch shows like House of cards now you'd probably have to pay $80 or so a month or pay less and wait till they decide to show it.

                          I don't agree that house of Cards is brilliant. Perfect show for binge watching and enjoyable but falls short of the Breaking Bads and Sopranos IMO.

                            Want to throw a little love out for Rectify. I actually gave up halfway through the first episode but had recorded it and went back and gave it another chance and got hooked. Total slow burn, low on action & flash but really well put together show.
                            Also second Hujsh on The Americans, enjoyed the first season.

                                All this talk of paying for VPN access and Netflix/Hulu/Foxtel is making me feel guilty. Surely I'm not the only one swimming amongst the torrents?
