PLEASE NO SPOILERS !!!!!

So what are you watching? My wife and I have been on a Walking Dead binge for about two months now. We're nearing the end of season 6.

Can't believe I did not watch it before. However, some of it has shocked me. I'm not usually into gory films and this sure can be gory but it's just fantastic. Didn't think much of a couple of the seasons along the way (bit boring and immobile) but it's just gotten better and better over the past couple

After this we are going to watch the Badlands, is it? Into The Badlands?

What are you guys watching? I know that TV has become much better over the past decade, with Amazon and so on throwing their hats into the ring.

*makes note* Netflix or Amazon? or Now? Sounds like something my lady and I would watch though, unless it's about some dude taking a 30lb poo !

Ed. No, no I would probably watch that too lmao.

I think it's on Netflix, Basically about "realistic" vampires.

Workmate just gave me a thumb drive with 3 seasons of it on.

 

[Excalabur50]

All the ones I've watched lately are,
Game of Thrones - waiting for next episodes
Falling Skies
Justified
Dexter
Spartacus - still watching
Hawaii 5 o
Can't think of any others ATM

OK cool. Yeah I had to bag Season 7 of Walking Dead 'cause they want £3 odd per ep. I don't think so...

Gonna use my Madcatz Mojo as our Android computer/movie player etc when the time comes

I tried Dexter but it wasn't really my cup of tea. Which is weird, because I must have read at least a hundred books about serial killers ETC but the story just bored me a bit..

Grimm is very good. Amazing for the first ten eps or so (whilst they used the actual tales etc) then it kinda goes off the boil a bit as they ran out of ideas.

American gods, only two episodes so far but am bloody loving it, Legion was good but had a crap ending to the series, really loved Preacher cant wait for season two to start up, Lucifer outcast and the strain are on going. as for walking dead i think s7 e1 was the best of the whole show for me but other than that Negan was the only thing keeping season 7 afloat.

 

[NeverBackDown]

I love the show Viking's. It's on Amazon Prime video. Currently on my 2nd rewatch of the whole thing
Spartacus I saw mentioned. Was also amazing.
I don't watch much TV so this is all I got

The Walking Dead is my top pick, but as I've read all the comics prior I kind of already have spoilers in my head, I agree a couple of seasons have been a bit droll especially season 2 with Hershalls farm but it came to such an epic climax that the directors can be forgiven. Other shows I adore are The 100 and Revolution, sadly revolution only ran for 2 seaons and poof nothing more came of it.

Great idea for thread by the way.

Ah yeah, the 100. Lady and I watched (and loved) season 1, then they pulled the £2.50 per ep nonsense on us and I never did download season 2. Great show though !

Yeah season 2 of WD was boring as pants tbh. But as you say, ended very well. It was that season that took us the longest to go through. They've been really cunning with Seasons 5 & 6, ending them half way through something making you want to watch on haha.

Oh yeah forgot to say.. That flick Michonne pulls to get the blood off of her sword = most badass thing ever !

Also, I've noticed they have stolen ideas from like Fallout 3 and some other games !

Recently watched and are great.
Breaking bad, better call saul, sense8, house of cards, billions, silicon valley, californication, battlestar galactica.

My wife was watching that thing with Lady Gaga in it.. American Horror Story? something like that. When my step daughter came down they binge watched it all day haha. Watched another Walking Dead and a bit last night as well as the usual (Emmerdale, Corrie and Master Chef final).

Was a bit gutted Steve didn't win but Saliha was good all the way through. Not the best series I've seen but very good regardless

Won't be long now until Celebrity Big Brother. My wife and I are complete addicts and even rearrange the flat for when it's on the sofa bed in the living room turns into a bed and we stock up on pop etc.

Best thing I've watched recently is season 1-4 of Line Of Duty. Binged that over a couple of weeks. British drama at its best...

Also just finished Person Of Interest and The Flash.

Person Of Interest was brilliant I'm also about to rewatch and then catch up on the Blacklist

Was a bit gutted to find that POI had finished and they weren't going to do a season 6. Hopefully there'll be a spin off with the lovely Sameen kicking some ass...

 

[AlienALX]

I tell you guys what's also good. 11/22/63. It was on Now the last time I looked but we scrapped it a while back. Watched the first 2/3 eps and it was very good indeed. I might have to download it tbh.
