PHPaulI'm noticing a trend in my viewing habits - should I be disturbed?
This is mostly tongue-in-cheek, but still...
All of my viewing is via Netflix and Amazon Prime. No "regular" TV at all.
Shows on my viewing list that I rotate through:
Breaking Bad
Better Call Saul
Narcos
Narcos Mexico
Queen of the South
Dexter
Seeing a trend there?

rburgYer missin' all the good shows! The Alaska folks with the cute mother and her kids. And lets see... ...... um The stupid sit coms my wife insists we watch. And the commie local news, with the always wrong weather. And, um, lets see. Oh, the off button on my remote, my favorite.

flashguyProbably no worse than my routine:
NCIS
NCIS: Los Angeles
Street Outlaws
more generically:
History Channel
Discovery Channel
American Heroes Channel (formerly Military Channel)
El Rey Network (no, I'm not Hispanic)
ION Channel
SCI Channel
National Geographic Channel
MOTO Channel
and Fox News
I never actually tune in a local station unless there is bad weather or some major incident (seen first on FNC) going on--then I typically use the local Fox or CBS station (best weather).
USA Channel

tatortoddMost of the responders have missed the OP's point. It wasn't about streaming, but instead it was about the genre of what he is watching:
Meth manufacturer who partners with drug cartel
Lawyer for drug cartel
Columbian drug cartel
Mexican drug cartel
Female drug smuggler setting up empire
Miami PD crime scene tech who is a serial killer
Drug cartels kill more than most serial killers so the common themes are murder and living outside the law.
Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity

irreverentWell, for goodness sakes he needs to watch Ozark then.. missing some good kills there.

mark60Good list. I agree, add Ozark on Netflix and also Bosch on Amazon.

flashguyWell, my choices involve a lot of shooting (muzzle flashes) and exhaust header flames.

OutnumberedI'm only disturbed that I previously found you disturbing, yet have the same watchlist as you!

mr kablammoSeems like a lot of drugs and killing. I recommend watching Hello Kitty, and the Berenstein Bears. Works for me.
JUST KIDDING. I really recommend Paddington Bear.

pbslingerMy viewing habits were trending following a job loss and I went to the doctor since my penis turned orange. He asked: "What have you been doing since you lost your job?" Me: "Sitting around watching porn and eating Cheetos"
