Ali in OR Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 We watched that when we were iced in for 5 days in January. We enjoyed it. I like the limited series that aren't such a huge commitment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure that’s not at all what you’re looking for, but they are typically 10-16 episode series. Just thought I’d mention them. ☺️ Edited February 4 by Vintage81 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you remember which ones you tried? There are a lot of different types, depending on what you’re looking for…rom-coms, family dramas, coming of age, historical dramas, thrillers, etc. The first one that came to mind to recommend was Hometown Cha Cha Cha. It’s rom-com, but also has some family drama to balance it out. Plus a small town vibe that’s nice. I will say, with several k-dramas I’ve watched, the first couple of episodes can be slow, but they usually pick up after that.

kathyl Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I'm on episode six of Fool Me Once. I still haven't figured out who all the bad guys are, which I like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen500 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 Fool Me Once is based on a Harlan Coben novel. Netflix has other shows based on his novels. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livetoread Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 (edited) Yes, there are other Harlan Coben remakes on Netflix. I have read almost all of his books and love him for a well-written page turner. They all kind of blur together, but I don't remember them being as depressing as the Netflix remakes. The Netflix ones seem darker with sadder endings. Not the vibe I get from his books generally. ETA Possible spoiler: Okay I just checked and the book does end similarly. Either I didn't read this one, or just forgot.

livetoread Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 I'm about four episodes into The Tourist. I like it so far. It's got a similar vibe to the movies Fargo or Pulp Fiction - interesting, quirky characters doing violent things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
