Fallout has been fantastic so far. Also can't wait for new episodes of f is for family

[chihuahuaofdoom@lemmy.world]

My favorite is probably still Breaking Bad, lately I've been watching Fallout and re-watching The Boys before the new season drops.

Firefly was mind-blowing, back in the day. So was Stargate SG-1. CSI, for all its faults, was fascinating at the time. Blue Planet was gorgeous. Fullmetal Alchemist. Pushing Daisies. Dead Like Me. The Middleman. Wonderfalls. Numb3rs. The Last Detective. Have Gun Will Travel.

I have a soft spot for Dr. Who, and the old Star Trek stuff. Loved House. For all it's flaws, Sherlock was excellent. Dexter was fantastic for a little while. The X Files - so much wrong with it and honestly hard to care because of the acting. One Punch Man. The Expanse. Poirot. MASH. Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. Wire in the Blood. Babylon 5. Titus.

I liked Hogans Heroes. Highlander: the Series. Airwolf, when I was young and uncritical . Forever Knight.

There were some middling shows with exceptional episodes - Supernatural, "jump the shark", others that were good.

I haven't watched much tv lately. It's hard to like fiction as much as I used to.

I like Apple’s Slow horses (although as the series progressed my excitement went down a bit)

[mech@feddit.org]

The ones that really blew my mind were Firefly, Game of Thrones (first 4 seasons), The Expanse and The Last Of Us.
I guess I like gritty fantasy/SciFi with a focus on realism.

If anyone has recommendations, I'd be very thankful.
Is For All Mankind good?

[anotherusername@lemmy.ml]

Oh, you want Pluribus.

[anotherusername@lemmy.ml]

I think that one episode of The Last of Us might have been one of the single best episodes of television ever made.

[mech@feddit.org]

I don't know which one you mean, but my mind instantly went to the one with the prepper couple and the strawberries.

[kaki@sh.itjust.works]

Patriot is one of the few shows I've bothered rewatching. Still great.

[unclearthur@lemmy.world]

My favourite of all time is Netflix's DARK. Only 26 episodes in total; everyone a work of genius.

[a_person@piefed.social]

When is the new season coming?

[watson387@sopuli.xyz]

I've been watching it too. Good stuff.

[watson387@sopuli.xyz]

Luther is probably one of my favorites, as far as cop shows go anyway. Idris Elba was excellent there.

At the moment I'm loving Fallout. I've also been watching The Hunting Party, which is OK, but it's been kind of getting monotonous.

[chihuahuaofdoom@lemmy.world]

April last time I checked

[discoplasm@piefed.zip]

off the top of my head: The Terror (S1), Interview with the Vampire, Extraordinary, Black Sails, Righteous Gemstones, Kingdom (the korean one not the lars von trier one), The Last Kingdom (unrelated to previous yet both involve swords ), Orphan Black, Taskmaster

like many here i am still enjoying Fallout as well. and looking forward to Paradise coming back this month too. i think i also want to try getting onto Spartacus (yes more swords) because i heard good things about House of Ashur

[lfrith@lemmy.ca]

I got recommended it when I was looking for something similar to Fargo. It's so good but came out during a time when Amazon wasn't that far into streaming, so didn't get proper marketing to make people aware of such a gem.

[iturnedintoanewt@lemmy.world]

Yeah the plot becomes a bit more unhinged every season. I still watch it though, friggin Gary Oldman in one of his acidest roles.

[iturnedintoanewt@lemmy.world]

It was left unfinished if i recall correctly, right?

[hubertmanne@piefed.social]

firefly tops my list. for movies its lotr and for tv its firefly.

[hubertmanne@piefed.social]

I felt the same. Especially the very end of season 1.
