Sopranos is still the best Series out there. Nothing came even close.

Fargo is not bad either.

No its pretty bad and boring.

First two seasons are good, rest is shit.

Fargo, Justified, Hell on Wheels, Rome

Preacher might end up being really good. Decent so far.

I watched season one of lost, enjoyed it a lot. Suffered through season 2 and then lost interest. Was thinking about just sucking it up and watching and coincidentally a show was on tv called lost in 30mins or something like that, were they covered all seasons. I think I made the right choice.

One of the things with the show is that it goes very slow and there is a lot of background information on all of the characters.

If you can enjoy the story, despite the weird shit , the ending is amazing because of all the relations you have with the characters.

Not surprising.

Honestly at season 4-5 and after, shit gets kinda stupid and weird.

I can see why people wouldn't like it, but I personally really enjoyed it. Series 2 was better than 1. With Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad I do think that you need to get quite into the plot and characters as storylines and plans do conclude quite late on.

Dexter is definitly worth watching. season 1 goes up there alongside breaking bad for me.

after that i'd put it next to the walking dead tier, which is still really good
>>
>>689154196
I watched better call saul before breaking bad not knowing it was a spinoff i thought it wasn't really that great but after watching breaking bad you kinda get invested and get to know the characters prior and now I just watch it out of curiosity for the backstory behind Mike and Saul, and atm its pretty interesting.
>>
>>689154196
I enjoyed Breaking Bad from the start but Better Call Saul was just to boring for me. I might check out the second season to see if thats any better.

Sense8 was annoying at the start with how much they pushed LGBT agenda constantly, when that dies down around episode 3 or so it became way better.

Probably my number one. I don't think I could find much wrong with it at all.

>>689154546
I think how much you like Better Call Saul probably depends on how invested you were in the characters of Breaking Bad to an extent. The two are shot/directed in a similar way but I guess Breaking Bad has more "action" in it, and is more exciting in some ways. I think that that drama and overall tone of Saul is different and you need to make yourself aware of that. I'd say give it another try, it's short seasons so you've not got much to lose.

I can just imagine you all, binge-watching those sexist shows that promote rape culture. Dorito-tinged fingers, crumbs stuck in your neckbeards. Drooling, staring at dumbly at the tv. Chuckling when the women are injured or killed, and each time you chuckle, your fat bodies ebb-and-flow like the tide, the fat reacting like a wave.

Yes, stay inactive, eat more, watch more tv. THIS is why heart disease is on the rise. THIS is why rape culture is so entrenched in the American psyche.

Do you even know how "families" are run ? All I'm saying is that there was realness to Livia, and what Nancy Marchand did to that part was brilliant and shining, and she was a definite stand-out. The writing and acting for one small part was able to upend the entire show for all of season 1, even in one nonspeaking scene. In the beginning, the show was all about the mother. It changed, obviously, after Nancy died. But she was what made Tony. If you didn't get that, maybe you saw her as a LOL. But she was more than that. She "made" Tony as a man and as the head of the family. And because she made Tony, she thought she could unmake Tony.
>>
>>689157127
I am starting Fringe about 5 episodes in and although the premise is great it seems to be starting to be a danger of the week type thing. There are greater story arcs being hinted at, but will stuff move faster and stop being as repetitive, plus how can they stretch it out 5 seasons at 22 episodes a piece. No spoilers plz.
>>
>>689158058
Yes, the first season isnt too action packed, its mostly about building the characthers.
>>
>>689158456
Same here but I think its only because the last two weeks sucked ball except last weeks arrival of the Hound. I couldn't give 2 shits about Kings Landing at this point and only since Arya left the brotherhood have I become interested in her. But ya got to admit all the storylines bar Kings Landing are really great.
>>
>>689151067
First 2 seasons of Dexter maybe.

The West Wing is also amazing although that is pretty old (1999-2006)

That was all extremely easy to understand, nobody missed any of that. Just because she was realistic doesn't make her any less annoying. If you're aiming for realness The majority of the characters in The Wire were realistic, none were particularly unrealistic.

>>689155171
It's really incredible how the quality of the show was all over the place like it was.

Not him, but every last one of the Sopranos characters was realistic, some freakishly resembling people I know IRL

I'd won't argue with Wire fans when they say it's the best show ever. Personally, I didn't connect with any of the characters.
>>
To leave out a lot of the obvious.
The Leftovers - 1st season was decent but not standout, but I believe the 2nd to be a masterpiece.
Peaky Blinders - seasons 1-2 fucking outstanding, 3rd was just ok.
Firefly - wish there was more episodes.
Battlestar Galactica - Great except parts of the last season.
Hell on Wheels - not god tier but a great watch.
Jericho - not god tier but great watch.
Black Sails - last two seasons have been amazing.
Life on Mars UK - not god tier but great watch.
Friday Night Lights - quite soapy but god damn im from UK and that show made me love football.
Ray Donovan - pretty good.

I watch loads of tv too but most of the rest bar the greats already stated her its just time killer. Has anyone else lost interest in Fear the Walking dead i'm a big fan of the walking dead but season 2 isn't doing it for me. Also really starting to like 12 monkeys.

Hillarious on the earlier seasons the last season with SPOILER him being bi or gay or whatever ruined the magic for me.

>>689159986
For the most part I agree, the only thing that I find unrealistic is Tony would ever agree to see a psychiatrist, though that doesn't bother me at all and some of the best scenes were due to that.

No he was terrified of being seen as weak at the start of the series. Passing out in front of his men would have raised serious doubts in them, he has a brain scan and finds nothing. So he reluctantly goes to melfi for a quick fix, where over the series he warms to her and find comfort and use in her advice and it becomes more than just a quick fix for him. Makes total sense.
>>
>>689160633
Them finding out he was in therapy would have been a lot worse though, again it doesn't bother me because thats the basis of the show so I can suspend my disbelief, it doesn't make it realistic though.
