My problem with the series is that after five episodes I'm not sure what the point is. Yes, Micro has put Frank onto the trail of some bad people, who Frank wants to kill. But I don't see a real personal reason for him to do so, except that they are bad people.
I'm still not sure what to watch next. I've been watching a lot of crime/thrillers and historicals lately and I want something different. I think I'm either going to watch Altered Carbon (as per my sister's recommendation) or watch the second season of Bloodline.

I thought Altered Carbon was pretty interesting. I really like Joel Kinnamon--have ever since The Killing (altho he took some getting used to--an acquired taste, in that period). Pay attention to the plot. There are some twists you can see coming a mile away, and some you don't; and I had a reaction at the end, that I didn't expect. ;-) I can't decide about how I feel about a second season, but I can't tell you WHY without completely ruining it for you, so when you're done, post back.
I am burned out on Netflix right now. They have a TON of things that we just don't watch/aren't interested in. We don't watch comedies of any kind, either TV or movies, so...that's out. My husband can't read captions fast enough, with his hearing issues, so some shows are completely out. We don't watch kids' shows, as, no kids. We're not big network TV fans, either.
OH! Have you watched
Berlin Babylon? If you haven't, you may want to take that out for a spin. The first episode is kind of wild, in some ways--at one point, you'll wonder, "holy crap, is this a musical?," but somehow, it works. We really liked it, and I would look forward to a second season, if it should happen.
Have fun. I'm reading a novel recommended by Diap, as it happens, and I'm enjoying the crap out of it. (Snake Agent, if you're interested.)
