Are there any good shows

a reply to: randomuser

I've seen every episode of Suits and was a big fan.

Justified...lol I'm from Hazard Ky , less than an hour away from Harlan, where it was supposed to have taken place.
Loved that show and glad to see them make a limited continuation.
Justified : City Primeval.

I read the book and saw the series, but missed out on the last few episodes.

Just discovered "Silo."
Tried and tested premise but I'm hooked.

www.imdb.com...

If you are fan of "gotta see what happens next" then make sure you watch the "24" series with Keifer Sutherland. My favorite binge series of all time.

Silo seems pretty good so far. Apple's Foundation is amazing if you like sci-fi. Invasion is nice too.

so far i am enjoying foundation, but i also really like stargate, it is what it is

I just finished the mini serie "The midnight club", a bit weird at first, light horror, but it grows on you, only 10 episodes.

It's about terminally ill teenagers who form a club and promise each other that if they die first, they'll try and send the others a message from beyond

I started re-watching The Blacklist from the beginning and other older shows like Eureka, Warehouse 13, Fringe, The X-Files, Stargate SG-1, House, Gunsmoke, MASH......you get the idea. All the new stuff just seems 'meh".

I feel the same and started doing the same and watching shows made pre 2010 era.

However one decent show that I started to watch the held my interest is From

Unfortunately by season 2 the wokeness starts creeping in and they start to check of their woke checklist but Im hanging on waiting to find out whats the deal with the let just say bad people to not ruin the plot.

I believe the show involved some of the people from LOST so like lost it looks like if you watch the first 10 minutes and the last 10 minutes it becomes a great sci fi show. All the content in the middle is just pointless fluff ,fillers,drama, and wokeness.

David,

The past few nights I've been watching this new series on Netflix. I haven't finished watching it (I'm on episode 7) but I recalled your thread and thought I'd give it a recommend. So far it's been above par. Good acting, action, and suspense and is believable.

The Night Agent


I'll probably binge watch the rest of the episodes in the next day or so. Will be back if I change my mind on it at the end.

This is sweet. Didn't know they were coming out with a continuation to Justified. I'll be waiting. Just checked looks like it'll be out in the end of July according to IMDB.

I enjoyed Night Agent as well.
Watched all the episodes pretty quickly.

The show "Silo" (about a society living in a large underground base after an apocalpyse) seems promising as well.

yeah silo is good so far, not sure how many seasons they can get out of it

a reply to: Emit1

Yea, they are starting to stretch it out a bit, when the mystery is kinda obvious already.

Think you would like foundation but it's on Apple tv.

a reply to: interupt42

As soon as I saw "wokeness" I decided against it.

Perfect, your thread gives me an excuse to post my latest updated rating list for tv shows, past and current. The rating is based on entertainment value and re-watchability, so amount of content to watch is a big factor (meaning shows that are still running that have good potential, such as House of the Dragon, are likely to go up in rating as new episodes are released). Modern shows that have less than 20 episodes per season, like 10 or so, and have ended after 4-6 seasons, but were still good, like The Expanse, are lacking in a high rating because of lack of content (and thus less re-watchability; the same counts for GoT, which also doesn't have a whole lot of content compared to some older shows rated above it). You will note I'm a bit of a Sci-Fi fan, but only of a specific type (not the Lost or Doctor Who type, and I haven't even bothered with the X-Files, hence it's not in the list).

The shows marked with a * are still running. For those who have seen my previous lists, you may notice some changes at the top. This is based on my latest bingewatches through these shows (my favorite shows).

Hell on Wheels (1.1) (skimmed through season 1, but perhaps also some of season 2, can't remember)
Under the Dome (1) (skimmed through the pilot, boring mystery)
The Shannara Chronicles (1) (watched 2 episodes, looked really cheap and cheesy when you're looking for something after GoT ended; I knew that going in, but it was even worse than I imagined)

If you want to separate out the shows that are still running from that list, you get this list (a double * is a reminder for me that there are still episodes left for me to watch of the latest season, usually this means the season is running right now; a # is a reminder for me that a new season will soon start, useful for when you want to keep an eye on what you want to stream):

The Mandalorian (7.1)*
