Black Sabbath Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 So I should give Parks and Rec season two a go? I watched the first and was bored shitless to be honest.yeah, it's a quality show, great castthe first season kinda sucks....get past that and you're goodAgreed. Once you get familiar with the cast, it gets better and better.I had refused to watch comedy TV shows from US based on how awful Two And A Half Men is, but Parks and Rec is amazing. I'm laughing my ass off.Typically the shows without laugh tracks or not "recorded in front of an audience" are the best ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nosaj Thing Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Farewell season of Parks and Rec was a bit disappointing but still enjoyed it. I'm currently downloading The Office. Hopefully it will like it as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nulla Lex Ink. Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I've been watching The Wire. I got about nine episodes left. I've heard bad things about the last season, and the opening episode wasn't all that great in my opinion, but hopefully it will get better by the end.

wasted Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Season 2 of Ray Donovan ended pretty well with everyone winning and losing at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivenToFly Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I've told myself I should stay away from shows with a storyline that are still ongoing, but I fell into that trap again recently and watched Silicon Valley. Two seasons are out. Every episode ends on a cliffhanger. It is brilliant by the way. Made by Mike Judge (Beavis & Butthead, Idiocracy, Office Space).Now I just started Justified (finished; no waiting!) and even though I'm not normally into cop shows I'm enjoying this one so far.

CheapJon Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Started watching It's Always sunny in Philadelphia couple of days ago. I was thinking about Narcos, The Fall, The Knick, Deadwood or Mr Robot, but no, Sunny in Philly it is. I've liked the second season of Gotham so far. Waiting a bit before I'm watching Homeland's new season. Is it any good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting a bit before I'm watching Homeland's new season. Is it any good?You haven't seen Deadwood yet?? Oh lord, you're in for glorious treat when you get around to it.First ep of Homeland was fine, a slow build to establish where everyone is. Second ep all action. It does seem to have successfully rebooted itself yet again. If I could hold off I would though. The endings are all cliffhangers, it's presumably a very satisfying show to binge.

wasted Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Perception. A bit generic psychological detective show. Like Monk but a bi polar guy instead of OCD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the same thing with the Wire. gave up after a couple of episodes then rewatched it and loved it some years later, I've been planning to do the same with Deadwood for a long time.Sounds promising with Homeland, I'll wait a while longer, probably the entire season. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
