Available on Netflix, we binged watched the series in two days. They are hour long episodes and the first two seasons are available. They are currently filming season 3 and I can’t wait to see what happens.
Stella Gibson (Gillian Anderson) is a Metropolitan Police Superintendent from London and is sent to Belfast, Ireland to work with the Police Service of Northern Ireland to assess the progress of a murder investigation that has remained open for over a month. When she begins putting the pieces together she believes the murder was the work of a serial killer and links two murders together. Stella becomes the senior investigating officer on the case and begins working with local detectives to hunt down the killer. The killer is hunting down young, professional women and Stella must find him before he kills again.
The Man In The High Castle
The show is set in the early 1960s and is set in an America that lost the war. New York is where the Nazi Headquarters is located and they control the entire east coast. The west coast is controlled by Japan with San Francisco being their headquarters. There is a small resistance but the majority of people are controlled by fear since both parties rule with an iron fist. When Julianna is thrust into the resistance because of her sister she finds herself headed from San Francisco into the neutral zone which lies between both parties. At the same time Joe, a Nazi officer disguised as a resistance member heads to the neutral zone from New York in search of finding and weeding out other resistance members.
Julianna and Joe are both traveling with film that the resistance needs to keep their hands on. The film comes from the man in the high castle yet we don’t know who it is. While Joe and Julianna are destined to meet in the neutral zone back home Frank (Julianna’s boyfriend) is being watched because of her disappearance.

I love Girls!! Although you may be right about it being the broke girls Sex in the City!!
We just started watching "The man in the high castle", honestly it took us two tries to get through episode one, but we are getting the hang of it and I think we might be hooked. Never saw Girls, it doesn't air on German TV and I was too cheap to pay for it on Amazon, so there's that. I didn't know about The Fall, will look into it. Great tips, thank you!
I really enjoyed The Killing and The Fall. I'm really excited of season three of The Fall! I might watch parts of the first two seasons to remind myself of what happened. It's a bit creepy... I remember thinking about where people might be hiding in my house as I moved around while watching that show.
I LOVE Girls and waiting to watch season 4. I also just finished Man in the High Castle. So so good!
Girls looks interesting, and so does The Killing. I love finding new shows to watch! Thank you for sharing :)
I think I will start watching The Killing. Love these types of posts, you can never be bored to long on Netflix.
