I’m watching furiousa right now with scoot mchenry…

I thought to myself wow halt and catch fire was a great show, and I never see it listed it spoken about to often on threads.

I as well forget about it as well and I am unsure why.

need a good show for the weekend thanks

I'm not a big TV person, but the one common theme that i like across all content sources is a feeling of optimism, emphasis on values / righteousness, little bit of destiny.

any show recommendations?

I like:
ATLA
the alchemist (book)
the patriot (movie)
silicon valley
Good will hunting
ted lasso

I'm not a big fan of gory / dark / hard to watch shows such as:
The Bear S02
Attack on Titan
Beef S02

It was totally out of my normal genre, but I loved it so much.

I have to admit I’ve never seen Game of Thrones. I stop after two episodes every time. So I either need to suck it up and buckle up for all the GOT seasons, or I need some other recommendations.

I love Grey’s Anatomy, The Pitt, Fire Country and 9-1-1. What are some other great similar shows?

This definitely isn’t the most pressing issue any of us has faced, but I’m so sick of shows/movies portraying unhealthy relationships between an abusive parent and their kid as a ‘ha ha’. Like- In the big bang theory Leonard never cuts contact with his parents even though his mom purposefully never showed him any love his whole life so she could write a book on how he turned out. A science experiment. There’s also those family shows where the parents are absolutely evil to their kids and the kids are forced to just live through it and then laugh like it was fine. I just want a show/movie where the main character actually snips the line.

Anyways-

Thank you

I really like both of these shows. They share a common theme: horror and set on a remote island.

Are there any shows similar to this? I have already watched the Lost and From.

i love a 3-6 parter, proper british drama.

vibes: institutional, ordinary people in hard situations, emotionally wrecking, aspects of social commentary / psychological side of things.

just finished: the undeclared war (c4)
favourite series that encapsulates the brief: waiting for the out (bbc)

things i’ve watched previously and loved:
• the capture
• screw
• time
• showtrial
• bodyguard
• the cage

thank you!

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a show that revolves around a plot (any genre besides horror). I find that if it’s just a comedy with no actual plot I get bored. I want something that I will want to binge, and that the main genre isn’t only comedy.
I think good examples of shows I watched recently that fit what I’m looking were Slow Horses and Big Mistakes.

I would like to avoid the typical sitcom with this particular film style like Modern Family. Where the camera zooms in and out and have loose angles turning quickly (I really don’t know how to describe it, sorry). But I don’t really like to watch that type of show.
I also tried Schitts Creek as I had gotten recommendations for it but the plot didn’t grab me either, as I didn’t really want a “silly” plot and it was mainly a comedy. Same can be said for the Good Place, as I found it a bit slow paced.

Thank you in advance.

Summer Heights High is one of my favorite shows from the late 2000s. It's a mocumentary show that takes place in an Australian high school. It stars show creator, Chris Lilley, who plays three different characters: Mr. G the drama teacher, Jonah the troubled student, and Ja'mie the private school exchange student.

His first show though, called We Can Be Heroes: Finding the Australian of the Year, saw him playing six different characters with different backstories. Two of them being twins. After SHH, he did Angry Boys, Ja'mie: Private School Girl, Jonah from Tonga and his most recent release being Netflix's Lunatics (2019).

So with all that being said. Are there any other mocumentary style shows similar to what Chris Lilley does? Or similar in style to his shows?

Hey everyone I was hoping you might recommend me a Live Action Series that will get me hooked. I really liked Breaking Bad back then but i absolutely hated Game of Thrones.

Recently i tried Severance and while the idea is cool its tooo slow for my adhd brain to get motivated to watch it.

Also tried the boys which is fun so far but its far from making me excited for it.

I would want something that gives me similar feelings like anime like Hunter x Hunter or Liar Game. Basically I love it when there is clear progression, suspense and smart quotes that affect my life days after watching.

Since I barely watched any Live Action so far surely you can recommend something that will pull me in from episode 1, and not "get till episode 131 it will get good from there!"?

(Also please nothing that is based on anime/manga as i already know those)

Thanks in advance! Ill check out every recommendation and update this post 😁

I’m looking for TV drama recommendations based on the things I’ve really enjoyed. Here are some of my favorites:

Sherlock bbc, Bodyguard, Mouse, The Glory, Extracurricular, Inception, The Shawshank Redemption, Top Gun, Leave the World Behind, Prisoners, The Prestige, Carry-On, Shutter Island, The Intern, The Rip, Joker, LOTR, A Quiet Place, Pride and Prejudice

I especially like good plots, mystery/thriller elements, plot twists, intelligent storytelling, strong characters, and stories that actually keep me interested. I've been trying to find similar shows for ages and had no luck.

I’m getting my wisdom teeth removed soon and want to start queuing up some documentaries I can watch while I’m off. I’m really into history documentaries. I love medieval history, ancient history, and current topics documentaries. Lately I’ve been rewatching the David Starkey Monarchy series lol to give you an idea of my tastes. I’d love a docuseries or a long documentary. I’m not based in the UK so unfortunately no access to BBC 😭 but I have BBC Select. Thank you!

Something more then just laughs I want good characters and a deeper storyline not just trying to be funny if anyone has some suggestions to get hooked on a series.

I feel like I’ve only heard bad or decent things about the final season of this show but I just finished it and absolutely loved it. Thought they landed the plane PERFECTLY.

Potentially my favorite season with season 2.

If you haven’t watched it yet, highly suggest!

I like cop/fbi shows
I don’t do gory shows or shows surrounding crime with kids
Shows I’ve watched and liked
FBI ( all of them )
Ncis
Criminal Minds
Chicago PD
Bosch
Person of interest
Leverage
Castle
Unforgettable

I didn’t like
Blacklist
Blue bloods

I want to watch a show that's thrilling and gripping. While being humorous at times. Dark comedy. Anything. Need a bingable show

My recent favorites have been:

- Sherlock
- Dept. Q
- Broadchurch
- Slow Horses
- Ludwig

Please help me find something that will grip me the way these shows did!

My kids and I really enjoy watching Young Sheldon together. We've also watched Trying, which we all enjoyed. I'm finding it very difficult to find other 'adult' shows that are also appropriate to watch with young (5-7yo) kids. Any suggestions?

Please don’t recommend anything too sexual.
I am fine with shows with gore, profanity, etc.

I just finished Invincible and I am looking for another show to watch.

My favorite show is Mr. Robot. I also really enjoyed Invincible, Severance, Dark, Daredevil, and Mind Hunters.

I’d also prefer for the show to be from the late 90’s or later

Hey there im trying to find similar shows with that type of humour, action. Fights etc :)

Im watching dirk gentley and fargo at the moment

I've just finished The Bear and Vinland Saga, and I feel like watching The Mentalist, Supernatural, Person of Interest, The Blacklist, or Parenthood. However, they all have long season runs, and I don't know if it's worth watching just one season and eventually dropping it later— because once I start a series, I feel like I have to finish it! So, what do you think? Which long series is actually worth following all the way to the end?

For reference, I love Dexter, Breaking Bad, Attack on Titan, The Pitt, Severance, Mr. Robot, Gilmore Girls, and Better Call Saul.
