Looks like I've been missing out on a lot of good tv this year. Plan to check out transparent, review and hannibal soon.

by RealGunner Sun Dec 07, 2014 3:17 am

There is a thread for Hannibal here somewhere.

Other two shows seems like comedy

Both are very good shows.

Seeing some promos for a Marco Polo show now, but I'm honestly not sure about that one. I have yet to not like a Netflix show so far though so this one goes straight into the queue.

There's another prison drama called Wentworth that is intriguing to me. I may check it out. I feel like it might just be another OITNB though.

Love Peaky Blinders, not a Netflix show though

Ahh vagi

thanks for the correction.

It fooled me also. Netflix buying distribution rights in US only and calling it an original Proud

Wat?

Arrested Development is 4 seasons Laughing

The first 3 are GOAT though. The last one was meh.

by RealGunner Sun Dec 07, 2014 2:32 pm

I must be thinking of Trailer Park boys hmm

An equally GOAT show and yes it had 8 seasons, plus a slew of movies.

Unlike AD, TPB is pretty much awesome the whole way though.

I've never actually found the comedy in a comedy show funny. You know, the bit where they do something lame and the generic audience laugh track plays. Maybe I just need to watch more. I like comedy where it's not intended to be funny.

Comedy that's not supposed to be comedy.

So Sharknado?

You mean like Walking Dead? T Dog dropping keys and cutting his arm or Gabriel going out to commit suicide only to change his mind and destroy his church hmm

by Onyx Sun Dec 07, 2014 10:41 pm

Yeh, basically moments that aren't intended to be funny, but are. I'm sure sometimes the script writers might intend it to be funny, while at the same expecting the audience to think it wasn't intended.

Also dark comedy like BB had. hmm

3 episodes into Justified.
Liking Raylan Givens (Timothy Olyphant) and the dry humour and the accents.

Bruh you made the greatest choice of your life. Finish this season and you'll be hooked.

Black Mirror finally getting recognition from USA after it has been added in Netflix US. People calling it the new Twilight Zone.

by El Gunner Mon Dec 08, 2014 5:36 pm

Twilight Zone pls.
It deserves better comparisons than that.

by elitedam Mon Dec 08, 2014 8:10 pm

Arrested Development was great. Especially the first three seasons.

I'm also excited about the new Black Mirror. I wish some of these great British series would have more episodes per season.

by McLewis Mon Dec 08, 2014 11:06 pm

Since the thread failed on it.....who's been watching the TV version of From Dusk Till Dawn?

A rather good, updated and expanded take on the movie so far. Solid core of actors and Richie Gecko is even crazier in this show than in the movies ffs

Dat Fargo love :bow:

Don't think Alison Tolman was that good though, 3rd place a bit too high.

Oh and Woody is so underrated in TD.
Top 5 at least ffs.

For some reason I can't do vampires, sorry.
no sexual reference intended
or perhaps hmm

by elitedam Tue Dec 09, 2014 4:31 pm

What kind of show is From Dusk Till Dawn?

I don't know if anybody has mentioned it but The Honorable Woman is pretty good. If you're into spy thrillers/dramas then you might give it a shot.

Also, does anyone watch Brooklyn Nine Nine?

by McLewis Wed Dec 10, 2014 1:11 am

elitedam wrote:What kind of show is From Dusk Till Dawn?

It's a supernatural horror series basically. Lots of gore and scantily clad women.

You're welcome :coffee:
