I watched Season 3 of "Drive to Survive". It's every bit as good as the first two seasons, especially episode 6!
Superb series - such a shame that routine coverage of the actual races is so bland in comparison to this - love the fact that it’s a no holds barred look behind the scenes complete with colourful language especially from Gunther Steiner ???
Highly recommended for Motorsports or even borderline Motorsports fans - lots of human interest involved ?

Not sure if this is on Netflix, but:
Just finished The Borgias seasons 1-3 (in all 30 episodes).

They have treated the historical facts with (a lot of) artistic license, for instance: Cesare Borgia's henchman Micheletto, who in reality was a school mate of Cesare's. But nevertheless entertaining.

And they did a good job on Caterina Sforza.
Including her "I can get ten more sons out of this" statement.

I'm just starting out on Babylon Berlin, and enjoying it. In German with subtitles.

Any recommendations for good foreign-language options, from English-speaking perspective? I know that Netflix gets high praise for all the international content, but it really has to be good for me to watch it. I'll watch so-so stuff while doing other things, but that only works if I don't have to read along.

Perhaps a movie recommendation on Netflix? The Lives of Others is a powerful story set in East Berlin, has subtitles and great performances.
