When you don’t know what to watch next, there’s always a reliable method that will serve you well.
Go on Netflix, find your favourite actors and directors, and see the other TV and films they’ve been in.
In the case of some, you might be led astray, Robert De Niro was in Dirty Grandpa after all.

But in the case of Bryan Cranston, the actor’s ability to star in hit after hit is undeniable.
From Breaking Bad to Malcolm in the Middle to Argo, Cranston has been in banger after banger.
Recently though, Netflix viewers have found a lesser known drama from the actor that they’ve been absolutely tearing through.

With a TV-MA rating, it is not for the faint hearted – with the show full of bone-crunching violence and shocking scenes that will have your jaw on the floor.
The show in question is Your Honor, in which Bryan Cranston plays a judge who has to confront his past convictions after his son is involved in a deadly hit-and-run involving the son of a wealthy organized-crime family.
Your Honor was initially only created as a one season limited series, not intended to return, but fan clamour was so intense it was brought back for a second season.

Dropping on Netflix just last week, the series has been a hit with fans so far, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see it shooting up the Netflix charts.
Check out the trailer here:
Posting in the Netflix Bangers group on Facebook, Erica Melinda said: “If you haven’t started watching this… GO TURN THE TV ON NOW. Been binge watching, won’t regret it, 10/10.”

One commenter said: "Started today, and I’m seven episodes in," whilst another said: "Anything with Bryan Cranston in is worth the watch."
And a review on IMDb called the show a ‘must watch’ saying: "A must watch drama! Crime, corruption, murder, suspense, it has it all!
"I just finished season two and let me tell you, this drama series has everything you want in a crime show!! Season one was very good, but I have to admit, the finale of season one had me a little frustrated.

“I didn't understand why they chose THAT ending. I had no idea where they would take this show, but man, having just finished season two they executed everything perfectly. The storyline is great! Everything comes full circle.”
One particular comment on the post in Netflix Bangers though properly reflects how we all feel about this show.
“I have 2 episodes left… I need season 3 already…”
Whilst we all want a season three, I have bad news, as it doesn’t look likely.
Unless the show finds a second life on Netflix, low ratings on the second seasons makes a third very unlikely.
Even if they did come back, Cranston has said it would be at most as an executive producer, and he wouldn’t return to star in any third season.
