Real Rob on Netflix is quite funny in places but probably something most people will love or hate. The Ryan Gosling episode was one of the funniest things I've seen for a while
 
Ice Guardians on Netflix is interesting (although it's about twice as long as it needed to be)
It's about the 'enforcers' in ice hockey teams. ****ing hell, they're some tough bastards!

Documentary which tells the whole story of ice hockey fighting and explores whether the games more dangerous without fights or not (on balance more fighting was safer)
Gets a bit **** with the staged fights, but the old school ones where the enforcers beat **** out of anyone who fouled their 'flair' players were fascinating.
 
Been watching Mindhunters on Netflix, crime drama about the psychology of serial killers set in the late 70s. Directed and produced by David Fincher, whose definitely proven himself when it comes to crime films and tv.

Fantastic show. Whoever they got to play Ed Kemper is ****ing eerily like the actual man. It's scary.

I find most of the Netflix made programmes are twice as long as they needed to be, Making a Murderer and that thing about the child molesting priest went on forever.
Yeah I agree
It's like they've decided how many episodes they need before they start, then just stretch the story to fit
Mind you I watched Liar on ITV which finished last night and that went on two episodes too long I thought

Agreed, though it was still good. Seemed to be quite a lot of Twitter outrage last night, after we were left not knowing who killed him.

It was good, but I was just left thinking they'd dragged it out and left it open for another series, which is obviously what they'd done but I can't see me getting interested in the next one (bit like Broadchurch actually, great at first then quickly boring)
