Looking for new series to watch

[Cayuse]

Transparent and Alpha House both on Amazon Prime.

[ghettostyle]

House of cards on Netflix. Kevin spacey at his best

Wolf House (PBS) and Fortitude (Pivot).

I'm a sucker for Machiavellian intrigue, especially in certain pivotal periods (and fantastical periods as well, I suppose e.g. GOT), and Wolf House (Cromwell, Henry VIII, et al) is excellent. If you're of the snowy persuasion (who isn't, right?) Fortitude is must see - a little confusing at first with so many apparently unconnected threads, but be patient; I'm on episode 10 now and it's coming together beautifully. Has a nice creepy factor, too.

The Americans.

In my opinion best series on tv.

It's on Amazon prime

[gointhewater]

I keep reimaging Boardwalk Empire set in mid-70s Panama City Beach, Florida, telling the story of the Airbrush t-shirt kings. The sweet smell of Cannabis, Budweiser, Farrah Fawcett hair, sunburnt ass. Dazed and confused on spring break. It'd be awesome.

Boredwalk Empire, as is, is ok. Better than many things, but just something missing that grates.

This is some funny shit. And true.

Orphan Black=best show I've watched in a long time. & new season starts tomorrow.

[AK47bp]

Naked & Afraid on discovery.

Some of the chicks are pretty cute and by the end of the 21st day they are even cuter.

It's crazy to watch people lose 20-40 pounds in 3 weeks and almost die.

I think the Bahamas episode has a girl with an amazing tuckus

[PNWbrit]

Wolf House

Excellent.

[DougW]

Wolf House (PBS).

yes really liking this, Very different take on Cromwell esp. since not that long ago saw that old movie A Man for All Seasons. I think I saw the play when I was a kid. Anyway this is old school Masterpiece which I used to like , lately not so much.

[SherbE]

House of Cards. 'nuff said.

[PNWbrit]

Our World War on Netflix

BBC WW1 Band of brothersish drama.

BBC also did a WW1 drama called 37 days about the geopolitical events leading to outbreak of the war which is supposed to be really good - hopefully that'll show up soon too.

[Mike Pow]

About to finish / just finished and def worth a watch

American Crime
Red Road
Forever
Fortitude
Secrets and Lies

[Marshall Tucker]

“Here’s to a long life, and a merry one;
a quick death, and an easy one;
a pretty girl, and an honest one;
a stiff whiskey, and another one.”

[Danno]

just started Daredevil, digging it so far.

[Mike Pow]

Wayward Pines.

Got me already.

[Mike Pow]

The Affair.

Much more than an affair, and beautfully filmed.

Great cast.

[Ripzalot]

just started Daredevil, digging it so far.

my god. the dialogue between the best friend and the vampire chick ruins the entire show. unwatchable.


New show: Dark Mirror. Canadian scifi. Not HBO/SHO quality but decent during this dry spell.

[MaineSkiAddict1]

my god. the dialogue between the best friend and the vampire chick ruins the entire show. unwatchable.

Agreed. Just finished season 1.

Foggy, while I'm sure is a main character in the Daredevil storyline is almost useless and completely forgettable. Vincent D'Onofrio does a mostly stellar job (although, I don't care for his delivery most of the time). He does come across as a badass.

I think the dude playing Matt Murdock does a great job.

It was mentioned once but Spartacus: Blood and Sand just grabbed my attention. Really good.

[DougW]

Poldark on PBS just started seems good. Remember as a kid as too soap opera like , this version kinda like that but have to see how it turns.

[PB]

I'll reserve judgement on Poldark for now, seems a bit thin in character depth and dialogue. The Crimson Field, however, has my interest after the first episode.

[PB]

Mr. Robot - catch it before it gets horribly dull and predictable

Pennydreadful has really come on strong in it's second season - Frankenstein's monster's bride is out-monstering Frankenstein's monster, in a wonderfully sadistic, dominatrix fashion, and the youngster witches have delightfully perky breasts

[AK47bp]

Sense8 on Netflix is pretty good so far, a little slow at times but I keep wanting to watch more.

Of course The Americans is awesome, I always recommend that. It's on F/X and the full series is on Amazon Prime.

Been watching Halt and Catch Fire on AMC. Really good.

[splat]

Halt and Catch Fire

[Mike Pow]

+2 to Halt And Catch Fire and Mr Robot

Ballers
Power
Suits

[kelly888]

Orange is the new black seems to be a good series. Been hooked and have been re-playing some of the past episodes.

[Altaholic]

I am a fan of the Revolutionary war series on AMC called 'Turn' about the spy/intelligence aspect of the war. It is fairly interesting. The third season just finished in the spring. I like history, so it is intriguing.

Ballers on HBO based on fictitious players/agents/coaches on the Miami Dolphins (being a Pats fan I hate seeing it based on the Dolphins, but it is not the goddamn New York Jets), it is quite good. Dwayne Johnson aka The Rock has done a good job on that show so far. At least the head coach is based off someone like Bill Belichick.
