If you like the Twilight Zone, I would recommend Black Mirror on Netflix. It's a British show that is really similar to the Twilight zone and I thought the stories were awesome. And it's only six episodes.
I have one more episode of that one to watch--it was FABULOUS! I hope the single Christmas episode from this season shows up on Netflix or Hulu soon :)

I love TWD (of course--lol)
Game of Thrones
Firefly
ST: TNG
Luther
Whitechapel (on Hulu)
Line of Duty (ditto)
Afterlife
Masters Of Horror
Buffy The Vampire Slayer (most of it, though it's uneven)

If it was available, I'd probably watch the first few seasons of ER again :) We have season 1 on discs, and my god that show was good at that point!

Hi!

Black Mirror was awesome. Have you watched Darknet?

A macabre web site called Darknet links the tales in this chilling anthology series whose protagonists face a range of unnamable horrors.

I enjoyed it very much. Some of the episodes can be ...disturbing. :icon_eek:

Have a great day.
I've been wondering about Darknet! One to give a try, it sounds like :)

In your mirror.
Yay!! Please keep us posted on your progress! This show is so bizarre. In the best way possible. Plus they're bringing it back for a new limited run on Showtime!

I watched the first four episodes and I liked it. My binge has come to an abrupt stop. Life happens. Ick.

kingricefan advised me to watch the entire show before I watch the movie. IDK when it will happen for me but...I look forward to it.

Have a good one!

Don't you dare watch Fire Walk With Me before you finish the show. :mad:=D

I went looking for this Afterlife, is it the documentary? on Netflix?

Nope. It's a British TV series, 2 seasons. The first was 6 episodes, the second 8. I just finished the first series (and cried my eyes out-Andrew Lincoln is such a good crier that he got me going lol) and will start the second season tonight. I seriously loved the first season.

CRAP! I forgot my all time favorite series:
Being Human (UK)

For a funny show, The IT Crowd is my favorite--we've watched that series over and over, and quotes fly round the house regularly :)

But not on Netflix, right? Or I'm just not seeing it!

Okay, I'm watching the first episode of Black Mirror right now. Very very intriguing. This is not so farfetched. The world of twitter, youtube, facebook -- it could all be brought into play in all sorts of ways.

And the fact they actually bring in a porn guy, lol! Got 22 minutes left. Not sure how this is going to end.

Oh, it's fairly harrowing. I seriously love that series (though it's pretty much a downer if you're a person interested in tech. I don't trust it, so the show bears out my set opinion--lol)

I was completely shocked of where that episode went! It was such a chilling episode.

I'm glad other people on here liked it. I so want to see that Christmas episode!

This thread has brought me to a couple of new ones I simply MUST check into.
Black Mirror
Afterlife
Darknet
Maybe I missed it, which ones are on Netflix?
I've heard of Afterlife because of Andrew Lincoln but not the other two. Can anyone give me a brief rundown of these so I can decide if I want to watch?

I don't think anyone has mentioned Hemlock Grove yet. I've had it in my netflix queue for forever but have yet to watch. Heard good things though!
