Forbrydelsen is absolutely amazing. Didn’t include it on my list since I thought no one would know it here :) Sara Lund is such a great character.

Sara is driving the show with her relentlessness. The 20 episodes of the first series I watched in 4 days. (during a x-mas holiday).

Under the radar pick: Broadchurch

Also, if you want intense drama: Big Little Lies.

Nice picks there. I saw both of these series and agree with ya...both are underrated solid series. I've mentioned it a few times, I'm a big fan of British TV series....Peaky Blinders,The Bodyguard, The Fallen, The Last Kingdom, The Crown to name a few but Broadchurch ended up being alot better than I expected.

To be honest, didn't think I'd get into Big Little Lies when reading the premise. But boy was I wrong...got caught up in it hook line and sinker.

You guys should watch Bosch, it's the best detective show on tv at present. Season 6 is coming in a few weeks. Anyone, that has watched it at my suggestion has absolutely loved it.

Zero Zero Zero is very good to excellent, Hunters isn't very good.

Season one of Jack Ryan was excellent, season 2 was kind of eh, it was way too far fetched in my opinion.

Just finished the first season of Designated Survivor. 21 f'n episodes but they are only 40 minutes long.

Gotta admit, at first I didn't think I was going to follow thru and finish it but there was enough political intrigue,twists, plots, conspiracies to keep me intrigued enough to where I had to keep going. And glad I did.

Now my choices are start season 2 of Designated or as has been suggested by both my daughters and a few my compadres in here to check out this Tiger King show which from what I hear is totally off the hook wacky but that I'd like it.

I dunno...tough call but leaning towards Tiger King

Bosch has been on my Amazon watchlist for awhile. I think I'll start it next.

So I don't actually need any advice, I've got a few lined up, but I figured it would be fun to post TV shows people here are watching or have watched in the past that are worth watching. Just 1 rule. No more than 5 TV shows per person. You get 5...that's it. (Deal with it!)

I'll start.

1)breaking bad
2) Battlestar Galactica (new)
3)Firefly & the movie serenity (super quick watch)
4)black mirror
5)stranger things.

1 and 4 are both amazing. I'm currently watching Pandemic. If only Rick and Morty would save us with some new episodes....

Edit: Also Expedition Unknown is pretty underrated.

Agreed about Jack Ryan...nice call Will I Am.

Watched both seasons and definitely a solid watch. If you like the Jason Bourne , James Bond, Mission Impossible-Tom Cruise type shit, this show is for you.

Quite good. It has been renewed for S3.

And the critical assassination scene was done like a homage to the one in Harrison Ford's Clear and Present Danger.

Gotta throw in another one - The Outsider (HBO) - it turned out to be something I really didn't expect where I was expecting another cop/crime drama show. I'm not going to give anything away, but give it a whirl if you're self isolating etc...

I did give it a shot and as let me say “interesting” so as to also not give anything away, as it was, I kind of liked it as well and would also recommend others to give it a shot!

Tiger King is overrated.

It is...eh? Was debating watching it or do 2nd season of Designated Survivor. However I thought I read season 3 of Ozark was going to be released today.

If that’s the case, Ozark is the easy call. That said without giving things away, why was Tiger King over hyped?

Has anyone see Chernobyl on HBO? Only about 5 episodes, but what an awesome mini series. It was a like a multi part movie.

I keep trying to watch the first episode and either I get distracted or it's really late at night and Ifall asleep before I can finish... do plan on watching the entire series though....

Is there going to be a season 2 or was this a one-and-done type of series?
