underviewed shows (not best):

Billy and Billie
Les Revenants (kinda loses the plot in 2nd season, though)
The Affair
Billions
Episodes
House of Lies

some are better than others, obviously.
>>
>>67249663
which one of those would you say the best? im going to check out billions for now

another under viewed show is rectify
>>
>>67249931
i prefer The Affair and Billy & Billie to the others, but like each one for different reasons. House of Lies makes me laugh. Les Revenants fills my spooky show quota since i found the second season of Penny Dreadful, well, quite dreadful.
>>
>>67249931
oh yeah, i forgot Rectify. easily one of the best shows currently airing.
>>
>>67249345
Best?
Adventure TIme
Broad City
Robot Chicken

> good
Baskets
workaholics
Porltandia
brooklyn nine-nine

> decent
the 100
>>
>>67250689
Workaholics is terrible
>>
The Leftovers, thought it seems to be an extreme love or hate kind of show
>>
>>67250689
>Robot Chicken

Please try not to trigger me with the most creatively bankrupt show on TV.

Review and The Grinder are pretty good shows no one watches.
>>
>>67249663
>Les Revenants
holy shit
the second season came out?
>>
>>67250851
>The Leftovers
i've tried watching it twice and couldn't get into it. i dug some of the spooky parts but the cult angles were just too nonsensical/absurd for me. what exactly entices you about the show?
>>
GIRLS

Black Sails

yeah. i discovered it accidentally on Netflix. i thought it was a 1 season show that was canceled. turns out it was the American version that was canceled. heads up, i think they replaced one of the main actors and it took me a while to figure out who he was since it's been more than a years since i saw the first season. good luck with it, though.
>>
>>67251107
I like the mystery but have no interest in seeing it solved. The cult is a bit silly but it works for me. Its all just a vehicle to explore these very broken characters, all of whom I like and want to see be happy
>>
>>67251271
gotcha. maybe i'll give it another go when it ends. i didn't think it was bad, it just didn't compel me to watch any further.
>>
Check out The Americans if you haven't. It's about two russian spies living in the US in the 80s covertly as family, balancing family live with their spy live. Sounds cheesy, but it's actually a really serious drama show, and one of the best there is.
>>
Current state of TV makes me want to cry.
>>
Airing right now:

-American Crime Story: The People vs. OJ Simpson
-The Americans
-11.22.63
-The Flash
-Daredevil

-iZombie and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend are an acquired taste, if you like cheesiness

Recently aired or on break:

-Deutschland 83

Avoid faux-prestige television. The Affair is awful. Rectify and Bloodline are similarly cloying.
>>
>>67249345

Nothing as good as your pic. Watch LOVE if you haven't, it's good
>>
11.22.63
Better Call Saul
The Flash
iZombie
Daredevil

You have to be fucking kidding me.

It gets WAY better in s2, Lindelof basically read all negative reviews/comments and fixed a lot of stupid shit from s1. There's still some great episodes in season 1 though, check out episode 5, it's a standalone, so you don't have to worry
>>
you fellas oughta check out WGN's Outsiders. it's excellent.

no one i know in real life watches it. it's got david morse from sons of anarchy.
>>
>>67251709

You need to be really stupid to get into a series written by lindelof knowingly. Like dumb as fuck
>>
>>67249345

Show Me a Hero was semi-recently fantastic. Also The Jinx.
>>
>>67251687
It's really nothing like that movie which gave us brangelina...
>>
>>67250689
>adventure time

good choice, but keep in mind it doesn't get great until season four, and doesn't become the best show on television until they got rid of nigger-lover rebecca sugar
>>
>>67251687

CIA>Teacher>Writer>Executive Producer of TV show.

Totally normal career progression guys, nothing to see here.

The leftovers is shit. Pretentious shit at that.
>>
>>67251461
Didn't that show have a literal interracial cuckold plotline shoehorned in midway of the 1st season with the lead actress and a fucking Black Panther nigger?
Yeah I'll be watching that.

cuck
>>
>>67251866
i'd say those were the two best shows of 2015. i don't think any other televised program surpassed those two, to be frank.
>>
NHL season is entering crunch time. 2 weeks left then playoffs.
>>
>>67251461
yeah The Americans is an incredible show, it's insane how little people talk about it
>>
>>67252669
That reaction is exactly why they keep putting such plotlines in shows.
>>
>>67251866
Seconding Show Me a Hero. If you have any interest in political gridlock and how impossible it is to change anything its a must watch
>>
>>67252716
Its completely straightforward and requires no interpretation or explanation. So all that's really left to be said is "gurl am hawt."
>>
>>67252561
yep. i like what i've seen. the pilot was messy and muddled, far from perfect, but the series has found its rhythm slowing the pace from frenetic Scorsese to Mad Men the psychedelic years. i also like that they got rid of the voice over.
>>
>>67249345

The Night Manager is worth checking out.

Stars Tom Hiddleston (Loki) who gets recruited by an intelligence agency to infiltrate the network of an international arms dealer, played by Hugh Laurie (House).
>>
>>67252730
Well I literally didn't watch an episode after that and I was DVRing it and watching it weekly before.
So great work I guess
>>
>>67252561
You are most likely the only one.

>>
>>67252669
triggered
>>
>>67252843
It was pretty unnecessary desu
>>
>>67252795
i'll definitely be checking out this one. Bier has fallen on hard times directorial-wise and i hope Night Manager is back to form for her after a pair of duds.
>>
>>67250689
workaholics I didn't find to be that great

The People vs OJ
>>
>>67252716
boring

>>67252716
The Americans is a good spy show but some of its storylines drag and drag and drag. things finally got interesting with the daughter in the 3rd season and the main guy's other wife thing has been abysmal for 3 seasons now. i've yet to tune into the 4th.

A jew who worked for the CIA puts cuckolding in a mainstream tv show and its the people who see a problem with this that are crazy?

What a world we live in.
>>
Chiller's 'SLASHER'
better slasherflickTV than scream (queens)
>>
>>67253445
You're crazy for trying to act as if being easily triggered by fiction makes you tough.
>>
>>67253328
>its "lets get the ugly old bitch mostly-naked and moaning" time

To be fair the only reason I'm watching is to see how they handle the fall of the soviet union.
>>
>>67253710
Easy cuck. I'm sure the black guy fucking the lead actress midway through the first season was crucial to the story.
lol no it wasn't, it was done just for edgy points and you pretend to ignore it
>>
>>67253767
>anyone who isn't easily triggered like me has their s/o fucked by other people

This will never stop being funny.
>>
>>67253871
>watch a show about cuckolding that was completely shoehorned in
>YOUR THE KEK NOT ME!
>>
>>67253919
You seem obsessed with this concept of "cuckolding."

Tell us more about that.
>>
>>67249345
Nigga, you can download the first season and watch one or two episodes. If you like it continue watching, and if you don't, then stop watching

really, i like season 1 a lot. what did people not like about 1?
>>
>>67254633
Season 1 is a complete mess of forced inorganic drama.

Season 2 has some organic elements (kevin's reaction when meg starts singing), but its still pretty forced.
