Currently watching Luther(which is fantastic) and am looking to see what to watch next(because Luther only has 16 episodes )

How is The Shield? What does it compare to? Worth binge watching on Netflix?

Yes. Think breaking bad with cops. My favorite show ever. Stick around for the end of the first episode and I guarantee you watch the rest. It really takes off with Glenn close in season 4, and season 5 with forest Whitaker is the best of them all.


It's completely underrated, in part because it preceded the boom of critically acclaimed shows on non network tv.

Incredible show. Especially the seasons with Forest Whitaker.

He and Chiklis had some unbelievable scenes together.

Awesome. Broke new ground for non-premium TV.

Not sure where you can watch it, though.

One of my top 5-10 favorite shows...extremely entertaining and "action packed" with a great story. Be ready to ignore more and more unrealistic plot points as the show goes on, but I had no regrets in binge watching all of it.

It's not on Netflix unfortunately, but it's a great show, especially to binge on.
