What TV shows are you currently watching?

Started Altered Carbon. Is this show worth completing. The first episode is very blade runner like in visuals so I am intrigued.

Also watching Lost in Space but get spaced out easily. Is there any other good space action/drama series worth watching. Only reason to watch this was visuals.

Any other shows worth indulging?

The Expanse? Four seasons on Prime. I'm also watching Undone and Fleabag on there. I'm having trouble getting into The Feed but it's worth a look.

Lost in space season 2 up to 3rd episode.

Oh hell, I'd forgotten that one, thankee.

First episode if hard to follow, 2 to 7/8 are really good, last couple episodes starts to go down a bit but overall liked it a lot, I give it 8/10

[bob saget]

fell behind, and finally finished watching the last 3 episodes of Rick and Morty. Holy crap this last season has been a hoot. The dragon episode and snake episode

[Athena]

Just finished Girls Und Panzer and and am now on season 2 of K-On

[Nascar24]

Lost in space season 2 episode 8, enjoying this season so far.

[Nascar24]

Finished Lost in Space season 2, I liked it more then the first season.

[nutcrackr]

Started watching The Rain (netflix) and it's pretty good so far as a YA post apocalyptic series. One thing I don't understand is how the rain works when there is moisture in the air or how people roam about when it looks like it could rain any minute. Maybe they'll explain that later. I'd be wearing a poncho 24/7 outside.

[ice]

You.


****ing love it. Has a Dexter-ish vibe and it's amazing.

[nutcrackr]

The Rain S1 was pretty good but **** Rasmus

[KAC]

Finished Money Heist season 3. It was very difficult to watch but the last episode was decent. Overall I think it is becoming repetitive and not worth the time investment.

[KAC]

Also Altered Carbon seems like a porno more than a show. Also boring af.

[UberBeavis]

Thunderbirds (1966)

[JZL]

Thunderbirds [are GO!](1966)

FTFY.
I remember those as a kid and then again when Tech-TV re-aired them several years ago.

[Chuck]

The Witcher. Love it cause it certainly reminds me of Witcher 3. Has that old school "geeky fantasy vibe" to it.

Still watching Big Bang Theory with the girlfriend but we're already almost done with Season 10. Got to find a new series to watch later.

Watching Friends for the zillionth time and watch Mindhunter S2 from time to time. Newest season of Rick and Morty doesn't disappoint, but I find I don't laugh as much at the jokes like I used to with prior seasons.

Looking forward to Lost in Space S2.

Just ran out of seasons of stuff to watch lately...

• 5/5 - Chernobyl (HBO) - Brilliant ****ing show. I cannot recommend this highly enough. I've loved everything about this show and to me it's worth the price of an HBO subscription just on its own. Except episode 4. **** that episode. I've watched this series 3 times now start-to-finish and I still fast forward through a lot of Episode 4.
• 4/5 - Marvelous Mrs Maisel (Amazon Prime) - Definitely recommended if you need something to watch with a missus. Good dialogue and a funny show.
• 3/5 - Watchmen (HBO) - I really liked where they were going with it up until the last episode. Now I feel like they simply don't understand one of the main characters from the graphic novel. If you watched the movie (Watchmen) and liked it, expect more of the same, just a little less "gritty" for whatever that's worth.
• 5/5 - The Witcher (Netflix) - Loved the show. I can understand some of the complaints, but having read the books and played the games, it makes sense that the first season would feel a bit disjointed in the story telling since it borrows from short stories that setup or are referenced by the upcoming novels. Storytelling should be a lot easier from here on out.
• 3/5 - His Dark Materials (HBO) - If you've seen the movie The Golden Compass you'll get the gist of the story, though this does adhere pretty closely to the books as well, it does the job of setting up the next seasons without purposefully trying to do something unique for the sake of being unique.
• 4/5 - The Mandalorian (Disney+) - A better Star Wars story than any of the last few films. A fun action adventure set with a bit of a Western lone gunslinger tone that does drop a few TV "trope" cringe moments here but doesn't let this drag it down too much.

[NIGELG]

Breaking Bad.

[Lazy8s]

We started "His Dark Materials".

I can't put my finger on exactly why, but in spite of the cast and obviously high production value, it just didn't pique my interest at all. I quit before the end of the first episode.

Normally I'm a sucker for that kind of fantasy world. This just felt forced and boring.

[andino]

Justified. My 2nd time. The wifes first time.

[ice]

Justified. My 2nd time. The wifes first time.

I never finished that, I need to pick it up from the last season.

[SubCog]

Justified. My 2nd time. The wifes first time.

I love Justified. I think I watched through season 4. I suppose I should pick that up again.

[shrike126]

I love Justified. I think I watched through season 4. I suppose I should pick that up again.

Does it get better? I'm on episode 3 I think and I like the characters so far and the writing, but it feels almost sitcom ish. I'm not sure how to explain it. A lot of coincidences in every episode.

[Nascar24]

I had a friend that loved justified, couldn't make it through but a few episodes.

[KAC]

Wife started watching Messiah. I started at episode 3. Binge watched till episode 8 last night.

[nutcrackr]

Watching Dark (Netflix) and I generally like it (up to ep4) but it has a really bad habit of not giving enough answers to keep you interested.

[Akumajo]

Started to watch

Space 1999... I'm amazed that an old smokes and mirrors show like this can spark the imagination far more with the limitations they had.

[GSGRUNT]

Messiah. I enjoyed it more than The Witcher.

[xCLAVEx]

The Messiah seems pretty good so far on Netflix. It has a homeland (seasons 1-4) feel to it. Just finished with the Witcher and Altered Carbon (also good shows).

[Deimos]

Finished the expanse, damn that sh!t was good.

[mizzer]

My wife and I are bingeing Expanse. Really enjoying it.

Messiah had a good hook but became boring quickly.

[nutcrackr]

Finished Dark (s1) good overall but I feel like it took too long to provide answers and the ending was a bit annoying. Luckily s2 is there already.

[JZL]

After years, I finally got wifey to watch Breaking Bad. She loves crime stuff, so I don't know what the problem was. I think she only resisted because I loved it so much.

She almost gave up after the first episode, but I prodded her to stick with it, knowing the hydroflouric acid bathtub scenes were in ep2. This was yesterday.

I think she just started s3e1 about a half hour ago.

[nutcrackr]

Finished Dark S2 - ¿/10 WTF MATES.

[Lazy8s]

We started Messiah last night. Engaging and thought provoking 3 eps in..I dump a lot of Netflix series after an episode or 2, but I'll finish this one.

[Munkus]

Outlander. About 9 episodes in. Good story with enough soft core porn in some episodes to make Altered Carbon look like a kids' show.

[globalist]

We started Messiah last night. Engaging and thought provoking 3 eps in..I dump a lot of Netflix series after an episode or 2, but I'll finish this one.

It jumps the shark in ep. 5 or so and gets real tedious afterwards.

[Lazy8s]

It jumps the shark in ep. 5 or so and gets real tedious afterwards.

We finished ep6 last night. I can see it going that way, but I think it's kind of like the titular characters statement in that "we see what we want to see".

For me, the show is doing an excellent job portraying how easily our world can spin off into social chaos, and how easily people can be duped into becoming "sheeple" if just one person can convince them he/she is the one with 'the answers'.

The acting and settings are solid, and I want to see what his end game is here, and how they work out the stories for the people he seemingly abandoned as well as who is behind it all.

[nutcrackr]

Started watching Black Spot (s1) and it seems pretty good so far. French subtitles seem to go much faster than say german or dutch.

[Lazy8s]

Finished the first season of Messiah last night.

wth/10

[Payne3d]

Finished the first season of Messiah last night.

wth/10

good wth or bad wth?

[Munkus]

Finished season 1 of Outlander. Man, the final episode was gut-wrenching. I had to fast-forward through some spots. Seeing a man physically and emotionally tortured and broken isn't something I need in my life. Very good show, but...wow...
