paul carruthers Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Do you like comedy or just the drama? Maybe Frasier, or Tru Blood, (if you're into vampires)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryder1978 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 AWESOME collection! Really nice to see someone else who appreciates "Nurse Jackie"! I suggest "True Detective" Season 1 and some older shows that I have "Monty Python" and "Fawlty Towers" - if you are into British humor. Also, if you like the "300" movies, get "Sparticus" - it makes "Game of Thrones" sex and violence look like a Disney movie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John M Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Try Fargo the TV series. All three seasons are great, especially season 2 which is set in 1979. Another great one is Mr. Robot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where in the name of Great Caesars Ghost is: Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica (2003, not 1978 as that was a bit of a cheese fest), The Expanse, Highlander, All in the Family, Soap, Barney Miller, Rome, True Detective, and everything by Ken Burns? Almost every show you have mentioned I love...great list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ady Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Based on the fact that a lot of what you already have are some of my favourites, I can't recommend "The Shield" enough. It starts off good and gets better and better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I’m gonna check that one out too. Have heard lots of good reports. Do you not have On Demand, kingzoso? You can record entire series and decide if it’s worth your $ to purchase. ✌🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apantherfrommd Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) This may not be the right thread. I apologize in advance, but it's the closest I could find to possibly help me with my dilemma. I haven't had television in 9 years. The internet company called me Tuesday noticing that I have declined them at every turn for cable. They offered me a free live stream app that I could use on my smart tv, or phone or pc. Whatever... I accepted it. Why not? 1 month trial! I haven't even downloaded the app. Half a week gone. My question. What is good that is on tv? We like History and Sci-Fi. Before m'lady went on her European trip to visit the family, we were watching season 1 of LHOTP. Is television worth it, or is it trash? When I last watched it regularly, I was watching shows like NCIS, X-files, House MD, and of course NFL and NHL.

LedZeppfan1977 Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) Well King, we have absolutely NOTHING IN COMMON. Only the Twilight Zone, the old ones did I view off your list. So we can go back obviously as some have? I thought it was current at first? But going back and including all time is going to get crazy. Sooooooo many that I love. I will put a few favs here. No movies right? I do not think you wanted movies? Prison Break The Fugitive (the late David Janssen, the show from the 60's) All In the Family Bewitched Hogans Heroes The Honeymooners Everyone Loves Raymond Gomer Pyle Jeopardy Time Tunnel Oh I give up.

kingzoso Posted July 15, 2018 Author Share Posted July 15, 2018 (edited) Okay, not that anyone cares, but I just ordered the following shows and/or series: True Blood Eastbound and Down Freaks and Geeks and Spartacus... Total cost: Appromatley $115. I have enough new (and recenty bought shows that I have yet to watch), to last Me another year or two. I have some $ to spend and I Prefer to spend said $ on things that I want. I want to watch shows that I have an interest in and have never seen before. What good is money if you can't enjoy it?

Stryder1978 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Good on ya for getting Sparticus.....it really does keep you on edge. My LAST suggestion as I didn't see it on your list - "Dexter"! It's one of my top 5 shows of all time! A serial killer who works for the police! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
