Netflix/Hulu Hidden Gems

So after finishing season 3 of OitNB last summer, my wife and I decided we weren't done with the whole 'women's prison' thing, and found Wentworth, an Australian show that has just released it's 4th season on Netflix. It's bloody brilliant if I may say. We binged the first two seasons last summer, then season three and four were released recently, and they are shooting season five. The show started off a bit weak and redundant, but has turned into one of our favorite shows. If you like Orange, you will really like Wentworth.

This inspired me to ask this question: what are your favorite and hidden gems that you've enjoyed on Netflix and/or Hulu (or whatever)? List em! I'll keep this post updated with the list you guys create and we'll all enjoy the shows together. Before I add my list, I want to naturally see this grow, so have it!

The List: (I will link them soon)
Peaky Blinders
Penny Dreadful
Daredevil
Attack On Titan
Deadbeat
Granite Flats
Tucker and Dale VS Evil

Mores to come...

Your list, futiles?

I watched Deadbeat on Hulu as a background noise show, but I really enjoyed it. 3 seasons so far, all on Hulu. It's the opposite of highbrow humor. Lot of pot and fart jokes, but is more than the sum of its parts.

Also Peaky Blinders on Netflix. Irish mob in London right after World War 1. So much happens each show. So very good. It's got Dr. Grant from Jurassic Park and Scarecrow from The Dark Knight series. SO good.

Netflix: Granite Flats - Kinda quirky Wonder Years meets cold war series. Only half way through the second season at the moment, so not sure how it's going to fair as the kids get older.
Not sure if it's still on Netflix, but "Tucker and Dale vs Evil" is a funny movie. But then, it does have Alan Tudyk and Tyler Labine in it, so you can't be too surprised. LOL.

Yeah I've seen rated highly as an actually scary horror flick. Unsure what they were smoking as it's not that scary, but it's freaking funny as.
It's got a few good scares in it, but overall I thought it was a comedy. Fantastic fun.
