Rule #1. NO SPOILERS, NADA, ZIP, ZILCH
We have movie & book threads. This one's geared towards those shows & series on Cable , Netflix and Amazon and commercial TV.
We've discussed last man standing, better call saul, breaking bad, Man in the High Castle and Longmire to name a few.
It's always nice to get a recommendation for something you'd look at then go naww. Then find through word of mouth you're missing a sleeper. OR Stinker
We just signed up with Amazon Prime so looking forward to your suggestions
Netflix.
Marco Polo
Stranger Things .
Season 1 ( to date) of Peeky Blinders
The Ranch. 1/2hr "comedy" with 2 from that 70's show also Sam Elliot & Debra Winger.
DISCLAIMER: it is far from PC, loaded with alcohol and sexual (semi clothed) situations. That would have had all sides opposed to it if it were on commercial telly. However a decent 1/2 hr show
My biggest issue is the laugh track. Maybe on Commercial TV where they need all the help they can get. This show, not really, it actually distracts and not needed. The spouse and i find it humorous.
Spartacus,
Originally viewed on STARZ. The 1st season of the series has Andy Whitfield in the role. Unfortunately lymphoma took him. For you young uns who had Xena Warrior Princess as a a dream date. This shows her in all her glory. It's not for everyone, but worth the time
Luther. Idris Elba (the wire) is outstanding as a british detective with "issues"
For us MCU fans
Daredevil, Season 2 kicks it up with much anticipated appearances from The Punisher AND Electra
Some liked Jessica Jones, little too dark for me, but it played. Put David Tennant ,Dr. Who in a different light
The disappointment for us was Luke Cage. Who ever produced it couldn't decide if it was going to be serious or a blaxploitation show. Too bad.
AND for those who missed it when on NBC... MY NAME IS EARL
HBO
Westworld
AND on demand THE WIRE.
Season 1 of True Detective. One of the darkest cop series we've seen.
PBS, Masterpiece Theater also Netflix
SHERLOCK
