So what tv shows has everyone been watching?

My recent shows that I liked

Game of thrones
house of dragons
the warrior
Andor

Watched first episode of acolyte but doesn't look very good so far.
 
didn’t like the Movies, Books, TV thread pinned to the top? Or is this your power move?

Silo is great.
Also liked Fallout.
Currently watching Dark Matter but others here didn’t care for it.
Sorry, I generally bypass those and forgot there was a pinned thread.

Can let this thread die
 
Watching Twilight Zone on Paramount Plus. Season 4 was 1 hour episodes that almost without exception were never syndicated.
 
Just started Netflix “Fall of the house of Usher”. 1st episode pretty good not great. Finished season 2 of Outer Range. Good for a time travel series
House of Usher was pretty good. The "When life gives you lemons..." speech is pretty epic.

Just finished Alone Season 10. May start the Alone - Frozen or season 11 soon.

Saw the first three episodes of Acolyte - decent, but not great.

Saw the first couple episodes of The Boys. Still good, but falling off a bit from the first two seasons.

Working my way through Elementary still on random days. I think I'm in season 5 now.

My son is taking a college course on Slavic Vampires, so he has had to watch a bunch of vampire movies (Nosferatu - he liked, Bram Stokers Dracula - "Meh, book was better", and Twilight - "Dear God, why did people like this?"). For his term paper, he has had to write about a modern media series or movie that involves vampires and how the story builds in a current overarching fear that society currently has (it goes along with the theme for the entire course about how the concept of mythical vampires are blamed for societies problems, ranging from plagues, sexual promiscuity, and other vices). So, he has been watching True Blood on HBO. Even though it is not great, I've watched enough to become slightly interested to see how things end. I've heard that the early seasons are much better than the latter though....

My wife and I recently finished Person of Interest on the Freevee app. We really enjoyed it. We are watching The Chosen 4th season. But the app seems to not size up well. On the weekends we watch The Strain on the Hulu app with our youngest daughter.

I watched that a long time ago. I really liked it too.. although I liked the first few seasons more than the later seasons.

Friend, Twilight actually made me blood thirsty. I am thinking, "You got werewolves and vampires. Somebody kill somebody and stop this starring".

True Blood was great the first 3-4 seasons. Then it really started to drag. I did continue to watch but mostly to see how things played out. I think I watched the last season, but I'm not even certain of that.

If you like Silo, check out Rebecca Ferguson, the female lead, in The White Queen.

Fantastic rack. You're welcome.

My son is midway through the 3rd season. He is technically watching it for school so that he can make observations about the late 2000's society's feelings towards drugs and how the story uses that with vampire blood addiction.
With that said though, he refers to the show as the "Unholy love child of Riverdale and a softcore porn version of Buffy the Vampire Slayer".

She's been in a few of the Mission Impossible movies and the two recent Dune movies. She's probably pulling in some serious coin lately.

Assuming you've seen The Wire, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, The Last of Us, Sons of Anarchy (guilty pleasure), Sopranos, Ted Lasso, True Detective Season 1, etc.

....

The Boys (if you like ultraviolence)
The Leftovers - I cannot recommend this enough. 28 espisodes total. Get it done. Top 5 ALL TIME and nobody's ever seen it. ****

You're welcome.


****and report back after you've experienced the espisode titled "International Assassin"

I just watched Dune 2 the other day. I assume there will be a 3 and 4, etc?

Yes, she's in much demand, evidently.
