Anyone else watch The Knick? :mj03:
I generally don't like medical dramas, it's the one type of gore that I don't care for. And this show is plenty gory at times. But I still liked it.

if you can get your hands on it somehow, I would highly advise watching Utopia. The UK show, not the one from Fox.

there are 2 seasons, 12 total episodes, so something you can complete relatively fast. one of the better shows I have ever watched.

Eastbound and Down.
ThIs should be your priority. Funny funny, funny, shit.

The League

Legit- great show

Trailer park boys

Chuck, my name is Earl, Cuckoo, last man on earth, always sunny in Philadelphia, Louie, are all great.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is a Tina Fey series that is excellent.

Shameless is also excellent but not just a comedy.

Fantasy and Sci-Fi; (not going to include those already mentioned)
The Expanse
The 100
Under the dome

I can't stress enough how good Justified and eastbound and down are.

Crime and Justice,
The Killing is a must watch as is Fargo.

Better call saul




These will get you started if you're interested. There all excellent easy and entertaining watches

if you like vikings, check out movie "Valhalla rising"

My wife wanted me to come on and post that you suck, lol. We watched Valhalla Rising last night. Ugh, it was not very good. Maybe it was because it was too late but I like a little more talking in my movies. It was like watching one of the old Kung Fu episodes. I watched the whole thing, she fell asleep cursing your username at about 11pm and 1/3rd of the way thru.

new HBO serie:
The Night Of
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2401256/

After a night of partying with a female stranger, a man wakes up to find her
stabbed to death and is charged with her murder.


watched 1st episode, looks good. Intro looked like from True Detective but chances to
some kind of dark noir Columbo / Making murderer. Solid cast: John Turturro, Kevin Dunn etc

It looks like only 7 episodes have been made? Is that correct?

12 episode season 3 will air this year

http://www.digitalspy.com/tv/black-...e-tv-series-netflix-charlie-brooker-episodes/


got new phone and 3 months of free HBO so i binge watched (chromecast)
the Wire in a few weeks, pretty good. missed it when it came out.

Started Banshee but it was quite boring. Black sails, shit from the start, The Fear of Walking dead
looked as bad as the real one, Bloodline and Ray Donovan meh not for me.


Penny Dreadful was pretty awesome, finale aired monday. Three seasons and that's it. :0074

Next Oliver Kitteridge and The Roots
