Yeah, forgot about Lawless Lawyer and Vincenzo. And from your list, the only other 2 I have seen are Crash Landing on You (have seen it 3 times, and my wife and I have been to most of those places in Switzerland), and The K2. But like I said, I have watched 37 of them. Too many to list, but here are some gems:Yes, also Lawless Lawyer, and Vincenzo. One of the most interesting Korean shows relating to gaming and virtual reality is titled, Memories Of The Alhambra. The ending is somewhat of a slight cliff hanger, but otherwise it is an impressive show where the participants can't distinguish reality from virtual.
If you can "get over" the lips of the female lead, which by the way is a superb Korean actress, Netflix has aired 12 of 16 episodes of, Under The Queens Umbrella. There are some Korean shows for the "romanticos" (romantics), including:
One Spring Night
Beauty Inside (romance and fantasy)
The King (romance, inter-dimensional travel, intrigue)
Crash Landing On you
Back Street Rookie (young Korean actress with a perfect set of teeth
The K2 (includes martial arts, and such)
My Sassy Girl (romance, quite entertaining, too)
Live To Your Name (medics from the past and present, time travel, romance)
My Mister (one-sided love, maybe. A very poor young woman and a middle-age man develop a sense of "kinship." No, this show is not about an older guy having a romantic relationship with a poor girl, but about her struggles to survive, and how the colder guy helps her along the way. In case you don't know who the young female lead actress is: Lee Ji-eum (IU) a Korean singer. She is quite a good actress, and the lead actress at Hotel del Luna.
Some Chinese shows are quite good, but very long. For example at "viki:"
The Rebel Princes (intrigue and politics at the palace, war, and romance)
Love Between Fairy And Devil (this one is being aired at Netflix, but I watched at "viki" already)
Love Like The Galaxy (war, kingdom politics and struggles, romance). The female and male lead actors are in the 20's, but quite good at what they do.
By the way, since I dislike unhappy endings I only recommend these (above) and other "like" shows.
Chief of Staff (if you liked House of Cards, you'll like this one. Also, the star of it is the same actor who "won" Squid Game)
Hyena (Well done one about some fearless, but excellent, lawyers)
Law School
Itaewon Class (always ranked high on lists of best Korean dramas)
Mr. Sunshine (Have watched it twice. Some what historical)
Signal
I'd better stop, but there are more.
Andor was pretty good apart from listening to any speech. I seemed to spend the whole series turning the volume up for the dialog then turning it down during the action sequences.
A lot of cinematic stuff is like that these days. I sort of wish there was a playback option for videos to have less dynamic range for that reason. My thought is that is stems from movie theatre sound levels which are so loud you hear everything and they want to really wake people up with the action scenes.
I actually preferred the Mandalorian over Andor, but mine doesn't seem to be a popular opinion.
I preferred Mandalorian over Andor as well, you are not alone!
A fantastic series that one. It highlighted how EXTREMELY lucky America was, won’t spoil it for you.
Yes, definitely good (have watched it twice).
Also, Chernobyl, and Chernobyl The Lost Tapes are excellent too.

Has anyone seen Season 2 of The Hot Zone? From what I have read, it aired last year, but I never heard anything about it.
Chernobyl is a masterpiece. I saw some of the Anthrax Hot Zone, not all of it though, I thought the Ebola one was better though. Still worth a watch.
Finished up S6 of Animal Kingdom, and that's also the end of the series.
It was ok, definitely no happy ending here, as interesting as the characters were at times, none of them were decent people you really wanted to cheer for.

Watched and finished "Wednesday" on Netflix. What a good show. Liked it and hope there are a few more in the pipe. It did wrap up nicely... so if there isn't, I won't be heart broken. But we liked it.
Agree, the wife and I are hoping there will be another season for it.
Not only the TV show names, but quite entertaining. Just watch Bad And Crazy at Netflix.

1899, in 2 sittings. It will mess with your head.
“May your coffee kick in before reality does”
Then watch ‘The making of’ Very well made with some ground breaking tech.

Just watched the first episode, it’s utterly fantastic! Really well written and incredibly well acted, Jenna playing the lead part really knocks its out the park. If your into this sort of thing I highly recommend it.
Im off next week and amongst putting Christmas decorations up, and doing some chores, I’ll watch this, Dead Horses season 2, and finish Andor.
I binged all 8 episodes fast, its so good and hopefully is renewed
I'm still rewatching Buffy, but I think between Christmas and New Years I might finally start Wednesday. I've heard a lot of good things about it and people have really complimented Ortega. For me the standard is high because I grew up with Ricci and she is the quintessential Wednesday for me, but if people are talking up Ortega a lot, maybe this is a series worth watching.
I love so much Yellowstone! This season is so good! And there is Tulsa King from the same producer. There is also a new sequel on the Dutton family later this month, it’s called 1923. I recommend also 1883, it was so good!
