Great TV series - What are you watching now?

Haywood · 01-30-2018, 08:16 PM

Almost finished with the Punisher on Netflix. A bit slow, but I love Bernthal. He's doing a great job with the part.

The final season of The Americans on FX premieres at the end of March. It's definitely worth binge watching in the meantime.

Great stuff and a second season is on the way. There was concern it would make it, as a drama/comedy in an historical setting, but it's gaining steam. I especially like the way they've woven Lenny Bruce into the story.

I saw the pilot episode when it was released in December. It has potential.

Thanks for reminding me to look for it. Episode 2 apparently just launched.

J.K. Simmons is an amazing actor. You can instantly sense whether he's playing the milquetoast version of himself from our dimension, or the badass from the other side.

Babylon Berlin. Netflix. Forget that is is all subtitled and in German. You get into it after a while and the show is excellent.

And yes "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" was an instant classic. Could watch again tomorrow. Just great!

Who are you kidding the show is excellent. Ban this fool!

rdub315 · 01-31-2018, 04:40 AM

Check out ‘End of the Fu**ing World’ on Netflix. I think it’s freakin brilliant.

Also love Black Mirror, though this last season has been somewhat disappointing.

The Good Place. Kristin Bell is hot and the script cracks me up.

I don't know about Blue Bloods, but it can't be worse than some of the top procedural shows, like NCIS. When my wife starts watching that stuff, I have to leave the room because the dialog is so awful. It sounds like a soap opera.

Sorry for hijacking the thread....

Never seen vikings, sons of anarchy, breaking bad or any other trendy bullshit. Dgaf.

La Casa de Papel. You know it's good when I can watch 13 hours of subtitles.

We also watched "Scandalous" on FOX. It was ok.
I also greatly enjoy "Star Trek: Discovery".

No joke i thought i was the only man who watched TMMM. I watched season 1 twice pretty much back to back. One of the best shows out right now IMHO and i have a huge crush on the lead character for some reason.

Great show but i miss the old Top Gear. Its basically the same thing just with more production which at times seems a bit cheesy. I honestly miss the lower production TG had snd if they could bring on The Stig this show would be amazing.

"Susie" has some of the best lines. Extremely funny.

That reason is probably because she's hot.

We just started Shut Eye (on Hulu) so far it's pretty entertaining.
