Just finished watching Clickbait on Netflix. Limited 8 episode series. Worth a watch with some good plot twists as the series rolled out.

I just finished watching this today and agree it's worth a watch. Auntie Pia's a bit annoying at times and it was in danger of twisting once too often, but overall it was pretty decent.
 
A few things I've watched on Netflix recently...

6 Underground (film) - Ryan Reynolds as a billionaire, who everyone thinks is dead, but still somehow manages to access his money and go round saving the world. He's aided by a rag-tag bunch of other people who every thinks are dead. Utter nonsense and only worth watching if you like a very high death count and you like watching hundreds of cars getting trashed.

Maid (ten part series) - The story of a woman who escapes an abusive drunk and tries to rebuild her life with her child, despite a ridiculous number of set-backs. It wasn't really my cup of tea, but it's quite well made and fairly watchable.

The Chestnut Man (six part series) - Just finished this one today, it's a Danish crime drama, about the hunt for a serial killer. It was excellent, by far the best of the things I've seen recently and is well worth a watch.

Just started watching The Chestnut Man. One of those you can tell before the end of the first episode is going to be worth it.
 
Bordertown - Nordic Noir set in Finland - excellent, really enjoyed this.

Six episodes into Staircase - still can't work out if he is innocent or not - so utterly American (some of the lawyer prep-training of the defendant is cringefest central). Scientifically, based on factual data interpretation by the defense blood-spatter expert, you would have to say that there are grounds not to convict. But it is the other element, the circumstantial evidence, that could easily sway a jury towards a conviction.
Similar style to Making A Murderer, but this time, the defendant is erudite, rich, and..............................a lot of other things!!!
