Over the last two (!) decades my TV watching has been sporadic, infrequent and prone to looooooong gaps; so would be great to know what shows I should (have) watch(ed). I'll give anything a go, but lean towards Science-Fiction as my go-to genre. Don't worry about stating the obvious, as I expect I will have missed some of them! Sister thread for films
I loved Warehouse 13. Definitely worth a watch IMO. Kind of sci-fi/indiana jones type thing. The Punisher was pretty good, albeit a slow burn and fairly predictable. The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina is also great if you don't mind a bit of satanism.
Scifi:- The Expanse (Near-future scifi) Star Trek: Discovery (Do you really need a description?) The Orville (Better Star Trek than Star Trek: Discovery) Killjoys (Space bounty hunters) Project Blue Book (Set in the early 1950's. Mad Men go hunting UFOs) Fringe (Parallel universe shenanigans)
I'd agree with The Expanse - excellent sci-fi. ST: Discovery was a bit of a letdown, IMO, and The Orville is ****ing dire, again IMO. The Punisher season 1 was pretty good, but I'm told season 2 is less so. There is a reboot of The Twighlight Zone that I've heard good things about. Not seen myself yet.
I believe it only started last week. In other news, I'm looking forward to "Warrior" - It's supposed to be like "Peaky Blinders" in Chinatown, San Francisco, and exec-produced by Bruce Lee's daughter Shannon. I hear it's based on a show pitched to Hollywood by Lee in the early 70's. Urban legend says the execs turned him down, but not David Carradine when he showed up with a very similar pitch called "Kung Fu".
BSG 2003 Caprica (works with BSG) ST Discovery (if your into star trek) The Expanse Nightflyers (Mild Horror/Mystery/Thriller) Westworld (new version) Altered Carbon Lost in Space 2018 series Killjoys Lots of Sci Fi to get stuck into, not sure what else
Slightly older but worth a watch on Sci-fi side: Farscape Firefly (+ Serenity Movie) Dr Who (David Tennant and Matt Smith seasons would be my starting point) Can't go wrong with: Game of Thrones (my missus even liked this despite lots of bewbs) Dexter (first 3 or 4 seasons - goes down hill after that) Entourage (my missus even liked this despite lots of bewbs - maybe i should worry!) Orange is the new black (first few seasons were excellent but slowly goes downhill)
I also rather enjoyed The Man in the High Castle. It was a bit hard going sometimes, but certainly a good watch
I have been watching back some of my favourite TV Series recently, but this whole list makes it look like I don't ever do anything but watch TV however I have time to watch Films and Rugby, go to work and grind out hours each day on The Division 2. Don't be to mean Sons Of Anarchy Lost True Blood Legend Of The Seeker House Game Of Thrones Bones Stargate & Atlantis Warehouse 13 Eureka Sanctuary Defiance The Big Bang Theory Breaking Bad Suits Arrow The Flash Brooklyn Nine Nine M*A*S*H The other ones I am watching that are getting added to the list are: Killjoys Altered Carbon Lost in Space Star Trek Discovery The Orville S.W.A.T The Rookie Seal Team The Code (only started last week or this week) Billions The Resident Greys Anatomy (saw it on TV whilst at a friends house and was hooked instantly) The Resident Street Outlaws Code Black The Good Doctor The Night Shift Salvation There are some more but not sure on those just yet.
Bones Leverage Scorpion Orphan Black Ripper Street Warehouse 13 A Town Called Eureka Stargate SG-1/Atlantis/Universe Star Trek: Discovery The Orville The Tick Arrow/The Flash/Supergirl/Constantine/Legends of Tomorrow Sons of Anarchy/Mayans M.C. Umbrella Academy American Gods And a couple I haven't caught up with but intend to - The Expanse Killing Eve Good Omens
If you haven't seen it yet for some reason - Babylon 5. For newer scifi stuff: The Expanse Stargate SG1/Atlantis/Universe Altered carbon Firefly Farscape Lost in Space 2018 Sanctuary Stranger Things Star-trek Enterprise (first two season are not that great) Terminator SCC BSG 2003 Dark Matter For non-scifi : Jericho The Unit Generation Kill Scrubs
I enjoyed Enterprise, but imo it has one of the worst finales ever. So much so I can't bring myself to re-watch the final ep.
