in no particular order:

THE FLASH:
First super hero show I liked. I liked that they didn't waste too much time with stupid filler plots in the first season.

DARK MATTER:
This show is not trying to play above its league and it's a good thing. The production budget seems rather low and it makes the "living in a spaceship" atmosphere more realistic because you don't see many things outside.

ELEMENTARY:
I find it more interesting than Sherlock even though it's very casual. I like how they use the urban setting.

THE HUNDRED CODE:
This show was rather interesting despite monaghan being in it, with a good nordic atmosphere. Unfortunately the last episode of the first season kind of spoils the whole thing with a forced cliffhanger.

I've been rewatching old X-files episodes recently and while the global interest is still the same (very variable over the duration of the show) I was surprised that they managed to produce an HD version of the old episodes and it's really great for that show because it has a superb cinematography. I can't remember any other show that can set such a mood with just the visuals and sound ambiance, except maybe twin peaks.

Luther is good I'm not a fan of the main character and the plots are not very realistic but since it's a british show and not american, it's well made and has a good atmosphere.

I was really disappointed with Sherlock. The whole thing is like a personality cult around sherlock/cumberbatch, every episode consists of just a bunch of people fawning at the mention of his name but he doesn't really do anything interesting at all except taking poses.

Modern Family and Dragonball...
modern family was very fun for two seasons, then it became incredibly boring. Every line is telephoned two days before I can literally say the actors lines before they talk, and the show has become little less than a vehicle for social propaganda. Absolutely disgusting.

dragonball is good up to the point where they defeat vegeta for the first time andhe leaves earth, after that it becomes the worst anime ever made.

Lol well seeing as I'm on the first couple of seasons of modern family, it's still hilarious for me so far. And Dragonball I got on a kick from childhood. Downloaded all the seasons of Dragonball and Dragonball Z which I love. I'm also supposed to start Game of Thrones but the first episode didn't catch me a long time ago so we'll wee how it goes. I work a lot so my time is really limited and i don't have cable so i just watch movies and shows by download or DVDs in the bargain bin at the dollar store 😄 I like a weird wide range of shows and movies, and obviously I prefer the lighter side of life (and horror movies go figure)...

Im watching Planet Earth narrated by David Attenborough. I love this documentary, i think i will set my DVR to record all the repeats and new ones. This is probably the only wildlife documentary i love since we lost the great Steve Irwin. I've always loved documentaries of wildlife, crazy serial killers, and notorious gangs. By far my favorite things to watch on TV next to Tosh.0, Kevin Hart, and Southpark.
Add Human Planet to the list if you like docs, frikken EPIC series 🙂

Is it the same series? I see it coming soon on my guide labeled as Planet Earth: Human planet in 2 hours but thats my bedtime lol! Is it narrated by John Hurt? Im soo recording this 🙂

Narrated by John Hurt ya, it's not Attenborough related. It covers Oceans, Cities, Rivers, Mountains, Grasslands and Jungles... Veeeeeeery awesome with a little breakdown at the end of each by the crew describing what parts were most challenging to film etc very cool

Ohhh it comes with a recap i love perspectives like that, especially bloopers. It's so refreshing to see what people had to go through to gives us these films. I'll set the record button and watch it for my next dinner. Im so addicted to documentaries about EVERYTHING. We need more of them lol

Check out Senna: 2010 documentary-

Ayrton Senna becomes a three-time Formula One racing champion and Brazil's national hero before his untimely death at age 34.

Even if you aren't particularly interested in Form1 racing etc this is an incredible film/ doc... So so cool, great story 😎 well, I loved it lol

We're watching Dexter binge- style . It was supposed to be our Sunday show while TWD idls on hiatus, but it's too good for just ine episode a week.

Every evening 1-3 episodes.


ooooooDexter is GREAT I've only JUST started watching it...

I love the difference between Michael C Halls character in this series, and his role as David in Six Feet Under.

Have you seen that sultry?

No, never watched it.

My chiropractor actually told me about Dexter 5 years ago. Said he was addicted to it and I HAD to see it. But it was on Showtime and we don't have movie channels.

We now have a streaming video library tied into a friend's private server and he has every stinkin' movie and TV series downloaded. We're halfway through the series in 2 weeks, lol.

We got to see the latest X-Men movie when it was still in theaters.

Love the Aqua penchant for tekkie stuff. 🙂

okay,

everybody who's into: game of thrones or walking dead or beaking bad, or other normie shows like that.

Maybe it's not necessary to post about it ?...
The Wire and The Shield are both basically APEX Tv shows tho.

It's like- bring those up and everything else pales in comparison.
