TV Watching & Cord Cutting

[Red.Fans]

One of my favorites is Into the Badlands. Kind of martial arts / steampunk mashup. First season was better than the current season but I still like it and has some good actors. They added the British (mostly comedy) actor Nick Frost this season.

Also watched the first season of Preacher. Not horrible...

The last episode of Preacher was the best hour of TV I've watched in a long time.

Also, Legion was excellent as well.

Never heard of Into the Badlands. I'll check that out. Love Nick Frost, he made a very good Santa AND domesticated zombie. His stuff with Simon Pegg is always great.

Legion is good. The New Zealand actor was awesome beatnik. Forget his name but he did that weird Vampire movie.

Definitely watch the first season of Badlands first if you can.

Looks like I have some new shows to watch. Current favorites are Goliath with Billy Bob on Prime and Leftovers on HBO which is weird but the best show on TV to me . Keep the suggestions coming because wife is almost due and I will be in the house for awhile

Anyone watch the pope show on HBO with Jude Law ?

Only one season of Goliath and Leftovers is a show that is truly incredible if you stick with it Btw I also like Designated survivor a lot but Sutherland's soft kindness and total miscast of his wife is the shows only real flaws. Anyone know when Ray Donovan is coming back?

Jemaine Clement of Flight of the Conchords, which if you haven't watched it is a really funny show, especially the first season.

On the lighter side of tv I freaking love Veep

Also love that political show circus on showtime which is basically real time events right now

 

[austour]

Oh, and I strongly recommend you guys watch Samantha Bee, Bill Maher and John Oliver.

I'm the only funny Maher and I hate Oliver I haven't watched Samantha Bee so I can't comment on her

love this guy since the 70s...

Had no clue he was in it. I'm glad he's been working pretty steadily since "Little Children" and "Watchmen" considering his long career drought.

Wanted to watch it since the comic book was so acclaimed, but never started.

If you like the Marvel universe Netflix has four and soon five original series. I enjoyed them all including Iron Fist (lot of people hated it). My order of preference:

1) Jessica Jones
2) Luke Cage
3) Daredevil
4) Iron Fist

Also available on Netflix:

Wallender. This is a British take on a Swedish show. It is actually really good.
Marcella (A British female detective show. Well done)
Crossing Lines (another cop show. European but some American actors)
Hemlock Grove (not for everyone but overall I enjoyed it. Kind of modern gothic )

On Hulu:

Bracquo (subtitles French cop show similar to The Shield)

On Amazon Prime:
Catastrophe (relevant assuming by "due" that your wife was pregnant)

Showtime:
Penny Dreadful (This show can be pretty dark but it is very well made.)

I hope your wife is letting you have the remote control today for your birthday old man !!

I suppose anyone interested in the fifth series needs to catch up on the other four since they will all be in it, right?

It's three against one here. I only get the TV late at night. :lol:

There is definite crossover but not a ton. Rosario Dawson is the common character to all the shows.

This awesome guy from Walking Dead is in Daredevil as The Punisher.

I'll have to give leftovers another chance


Anyone watch the pope show on HBO with Jude Law ?

I remember you posting that you liked Breaking Bad. Have you been watching Better Call Saul? It starts slow but has some interaction with other old characters.

I totally gave up on Better call Saul as like you said it was just so slow. I guess I should give it another shot? When I start a show and it doesn't grab me right away I just give up. Probably the reason why I watch the Wire over and over . Instant satisfaction

Yeah we loved breaking bad. We started with Saul but it was slow in the beginning and then we stopped. All my friends are saying what you just did that we have to go back and give it another chance.

Same thing happened with me and the first true detective. I dropped it after 2 or so episodes but at the end all my friends were raving on Facebook about it so went back and watched it and we loved it

Getting older my attention span gets shorter

I swear I have been thinking of going back and starting the wire all over again. X Files too
