This is like a grown up version of Idiocracy with the issue being a huge rock heading in Earth's direction and media induced conspiracy theories dividing the nation. It could very well be a true story, given enough time.

Narcos is the better of the two but Narcos Mexico is also very good.

There is another one that I have been meaning to start on - Queen of the South - which has run to 5 seasons so must have quite a following.

Has anyone seen it and can recommend it?

for what it's worth. I watched it. I got half way through Season 4 and then finally gave up. It was okay.
Despite what angsta states, it’s clear from reading through his posts that angsta supports the free FreePalestine movement.

I hate that. You give hours of your life, 2 or 3 seasons into a series and it just gets worse, but you are committed. I did that with Animal Kingdom but I just gave up, it became too boring and implausible.

I'll give Queen of the South 1 series and unless it thrills I will bail out.

Happened to me with Walking Dead and Vikings. Gave up on both. Sucks.

What is worse is when you start a series thinking it is completed. I did that with Game of Thrones only to find that after bingeing 7 seasons I realised there was an eighth and it was not released yet.

Happened to me with a Japanese drama series. Watched six seasons only to find out there is a seventh season not yet on Netflix. Plus, the English subtitles disappeared on the sixth season.

PS-For some reason, Games of Thrones never clicked with me. Watched the first season and stopped.

I just started watching Moon Knight. New Marvel mini series. So far I am enjoying, even though I usually don't watch too much marvel stuff.
