Exceelent TV Shows

Disappointing to read about El Camino. Thanks for the warning.

Justified, Sopranos, and The Shield are my top 3. Breaking Bad is right up there.

I think The Wire might be up next.

I'm one who thinks Breaking Bad is the greatest TV drama of all time, but that said, I found El Camino to be boring and pointless.

Agreed on El Camino, and Breaking Bad, even at #2 all-time, can't hold a candle to The Wire.

Finished Breaking Bad last night. It was very well done on all fronts. I certainly see why it was so highly rated.

There is a follow up movie called El Camino that we will be watching tonight or sometime this weekend.

I still think that the only thing that compares to those last 2 episodes is the ending of Breaking Bad

Anyone watching Lovecraft Country on HBO? I think it's fantastic so far, and Jurnee Smollett is not hard to look at either. Fantastic cast all around including Omar.

Which we are in season two (about half way) right now. Will watch 2 or 3 episodes later today.

So far we are enjoying it very much.

Well then, Thank you!!

We finished it a few weeks ago. Did not see the ending going that way at all! Tremendous show. Now easily one of my top ten of all time.

I bet it was me, I'm a huge Shield fan. Just you wait, it gets even better, how far have you gotten?

just finished Travelers, which was better than expected. 3 seasons.

and Umbrella Academy's first season was fun, the second season just dropped.

"Counterpart" featuring JK Simmons and Olivia Williams is great, a parallel Earth gets spawned in Berlin in 1987 and then things happen, 2 seasons, best thing I've seen in a while
"Northmen" is "The Office" but in Viking times, I'm not watching much comedy, but this did it for me

I loved "Watchmen" and "The Expanse". "Giri/Haji" is a super slow-burn Japanese/British police procedural that I still don't understand how it got pitched and made. I'm in season 2 of "Dark", strange german time travel thing (must watch for Nullnor!), I've watched most of "Midnight Diner", which makes me hungry every episode and superhelpful in regaining my "Bar Japanese". Im also enjoying "Peaky Blinders" very much, British gangs post-WWI.

Strangest thing though we've been watching in our house is "Escape to the Country", a UK show where people are looking to, you guessed it, move to the English countryside, I now know more about average house prices in UK counties than I ever imagined, and that Brits have carpet in their bathrooms, sofas in their kitchens, don't like bedrooms on the ground floor, and all seem to want to raise Alpacas

I'm a huge fan of the Star Trek Universe, but can not get through "Star Trek: Discovery", terrible acting and plots

I know someone mentioned The Shield earlier in this thread. We just never got around to watching it.

Well last night we watched the Pilot, and boy oh boy. Needless to say we had to watch the next episode and then one more for good measure. Hooked!

Late to the party, but better late than never.

[Fresno Bob]

not entirely sure. German show. Sci-fi, time travel, missing kid .... I may have to just watch and find out.

I've watched the first season of Dark, somewhat through through the 2nd, enjoying it quite a bit.

[Fresno Bob]

I was planning to, but Amazon only has the three seasons. Plus, I've heard it's not that good.

I rewatched the whole series, then watched the movie, which I did enjoy, it's worth tracking down

[DMT]

Has anyone seen this yet? Sounds right up my alley but I'm generally not a fan of animated shows.

Great miniseries on The History Channel: “Grant.” Highly recommended.
