Movies and TV Must Watch Series - Page 102

**Buehler445** · 07:36 PM

All this talk about series, how network TV Sucks, and how hard it is to find quality shows, and some excellent shows that fly under the radar, I need a comprehensive review of all the series I need to see.

For good entertainment, I would be willing to buy DVD sets. But I've recently picked up HBOGO by kiping it from my parents, and recently got Netflix and Amazon Prime.

Here is a listing of shows that I currently own or have seen all the episodes of. If it isn't on the list, just assume I haven't seen it.

Here is a listing of shows on my list to watch (mostly due to this thread)

Spoiler!

I work a ****ton, so it is hard for me catch a series while it is on to get it on the DVR, but I recognize the entertainment value and am willing to go after the Must See shows. Accordingly, I'm not necessarily looking for anything that is still running. I'm up for watching stuff that has run its course.

So what say you, Planet? Which shows should I see?

UPDATED for the shows I've seen recently.

Hmmm, not sure I actually gave it enough time. Maybe two episodes? Did you enjoy it? Do you think it is worth another look?

I am on season two of Imposters, truly enjoying it.

It did.

It's been a long time since i've seen a series so poorly written. Avoid this shit at all costs.

I'm only 3 or 4 episodes in but the "Take Your Daughter to Work Day" bit made me laugh. It isn't the funniest show, but I've enjoyed it so far.

Yeah, it’s a satire of thriller movies/shows. Not serious. What was chalked up as bad writing was intentional tongue-in-cheek mockery of the genre.

I enjoyed it a lot.

Was recently wondering if any more Orville was forthcoming.

I enjoyed the first season. Didn’t make it through the second but mostly due to other shows getting aired and just forgetting about it. Would definitely be willing to pick it back up at some point.

I enjoyed the first season, the second season seems to be starting out a little bit uneven to me. There's a lot of loose ends to be tied up from the first season. Maybe it's going to take some time for the actors to get back into character because the interactions seem a bit 'off'.

I watched In From the Cold. Ex Russian Spy made a life in America and gets recruited to help the CIA. I wanted to like it. I really REALLY did. I loved the Americans, the chick looked hot. Production value looked good. Hoooo boy was it dumb. It did a few things right, I enjoyed most of the action, the acting of the 90's Berlin stuff was fairly compelling. I didn't hate the performance of the CIA guy and the IT guy.

But I was all the way out during the

But then

I'm sure they want that thing to make a second season. I'm probably out.

That's a shame. I almost started it last night but started Reacher instead. I thought it sounded like something I'd really enjoy.

Meh. Watch the first episode. Then read the first spoiler. If it doesn't bother you, fire away. It's possible I'm being overly critical.

Excellent so far

I read that after. I guess that makes it better, but now im just kinda mad at it because it wasn't funny enough nor obvious enough to be satire. The source content that it's making a parody of isn't even all that memorable for me to go, "OOOOH it's a parody of...". And on top of that it wasn't funny enough to go, "oh, this is clearly a comedy".

I actually think Marshawn was the best guest they had. He was absolutely funny.

All Commando bitch when they took her daughter. That was good. But then Spoiler! The heel turn at the end... And Jesus CHRIST did they really want that John Wick sledgehammer scene in there, but for the love of everything holy she was completely incapable of competently swinging a sledge. They would have been much better off to let her swing a 6lb and teach her how to do it. But hey, at least she wasn't wearing a bra. I like titties. I'm sure they want that thing to make a second season. I'm probably out.
