I need some trash cult action show to watch.

Xena, Stargate SG1, Firefly or something else. I like horror and sci-fi but swords and sandals fantasy shit has a place in my heart too. I need some guidance /tv/.

Dollhouse, Dark Angel, Babylon 5, Ghost Whisperer are other shows I've been looking at.

This, but its not trash, its kino.

>>69253347
OP said "trash" but I think he means "campy"
>>
>>69253194
I didn't mean trash like bad, just those shows you sit down and go through half a season while chugging beer like it's nothing.
and Farscape is great.

>>69253462
yeah, I guess campy is the word I was looking for.

While not as campy as you'd want, and heavy on the sci-fi, I guess you could enjoy it.

Stay away from Dollhouse and Ghost Whisperer. Total shit. Though Alan Tudyk was good in Dollhouse but he's always good.
>>
>>69256491
this looks awesome, how much T&A is in it?
>>
What's that one on Starz? Strike Back or Strike Force? Heard that's pretty good for an action series.
>>
>>69256985
>Stay away from Dollhouse
I agree but you're definitely going to have hurt someone's feelings by saying so.
>>
BeastMaster

I would occasionally catch an episode here or there so I had no idea what the fuck was going on
>>
>>69256993
Around Xena/Hercules level, it's very much in that vein.
>>
>>69252435
Highlander
>>
>>69257016
Strike Back, and it's great if you're into shows that are high-octane with minimal focus on character/story
>>
Special Unit 2
>>
The Strain is pretty dumb but also very fun, especially if you like Del Toro.
>>
>>69257051
The problem with Beastmaster and other shows that tried to horn in on the Herc/Xena craze is that they missed what made those two shows special, the humor and colorful characters.

Most of them are still decent enough if you're bored though, just stay away from Adventures of Sinbad that series is complete shit

Have you seen the Robin Hood series? Can't remember the name, but it's in the same vein as Xena/Herc.

Farscape.

Also it's not an action show but watch Profit (1996), it's amazing. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115323/

"Jim Profit works for a multinational company, and isn't above using any means necessary to get ahead, and that includes bribery, blackmail, intimidation, extortion, and even murder."

Episode 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amWCBgCBEXY

>>69257061
god I fucking hate that show. A great premise but ruined by an over-reliance on formula. Every episode is literally the same

Profit is one of the most underappreciated shows of all time, and paved the way for shit like The Sopranos, Dexter, Breaking Bad, etc.

>Farscape
You definitely can't go wrong with the greatest TV series ever made
>>
>>69252435

Dark Matter is okay, it definitely improves as it goes. If you like Firefly you'll find things to like in it too. I really enjoyed it half way through the season.

Strike Back isn't camp but damn if it isn't glorious

I liked it up to a point but I really don't like the actor playing Pablo. His look is fine but his acting was completely off and it destroyed the scenes he was in.
