Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Getting desperate for a decent new series. I've gone through all of the good ones, like Justified, Longmire, Hell on Wheels, Breaking Bad, Goliath, Jack Ryan, Bosch, Better Call Saul, etc. Didn't like Ozark -- too dark. Any suggestions?

J-BAR #18287 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 We are into the second season of “Fringe” on IMDB channel. A present day science fiction series with Special Agents using the services of an eccentric scientist to solve crimes perpetrated by other mad criminal scientists. Some familiar faces in the cast. Free with commercials during the show. A JJ Abrams production. ”Hart Of Dixie” on Netflix. Comedy Southern satire, kind of a cross between “Sweet Home Alabama” and “Doc Hollywood”. Gorgeous young lady surgeon from big city winds up in Alabama small town practice. Chick flick with eye candy for guys. Watch with your wife.

Hendo Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Firefly - Science Fiction for cowboys. The Adventures of Briscoe County Jr. - Campy Sci-Fi (sort of) for cowboys. The Expanse - It's what Science Fiction is supposed to be. and yeah, I'm just an old geek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. O. R. Vet Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 "Episodes" on Netflix. Story is about a British married couple who wrote an award-winning comedy series in the UK. Brought over to Hollywood to do a similar series for US tv. Chaos follows. A real funny series but a lot of "adult" scenes and language so be prepared... Dr. O. R.

Towards the end, though still enjoyable, was not as good as the earlier episodes. ETA: I don't have the IMBD channel, only limited access to Netflix and Dish Anywhere.

Church Key, SASS # 33713 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 For light watching, Col. Marsh of Scotland Yard, head of the Department of Queer Complaints. The Amazon series started in 1956 and stars Boris Karloff. He solves weird, and sometimes improbable mysteries. Another real classic is the series with Inspector Morse of Oxford on Britbox. Am a firm British mystery fan. I'm currently starting Longmire, complex plots and a bit hard to follow at times. Really liked Justified and Bosch.

Gracos Kid Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 My wife and I really enjoyed "Persons of Interest" with Jim Caveziel. We watched "Longmire" twice, and also enjoyed "Blacklist".

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Have you seen the Outlander series? It's on Starz, but I think you can access it through Amazon. There are a few scenes that will need follow-up eye bleach (and possibly therapy) but otherwise it's quite good, with Scottish, English, French and early American history woven into the story.

I’ve read the books. This is one where the films are better than the books, in my opinion. They drag on in the books where the film format keeps the story moving.

irish ike, SASS #43615 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Last Kingdom and The Vikings are both really good. Last Kingdom actually has some historical accuracy. The Kings Andrew, Edward and Esel something are true to the original Saxon linage. Arrow heads are accurate, Helmets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
