@nepia Outlander is great to watch with your Missus...
Travelers (best switch your brain off tv), The Deuce (best seedy 70s tv), Master of None 1&2 (S2 best tv), Halt and Catch Fire (best show that's finished), B99, The Goldbergs, and Fresh of the Boat- not seen any of these
You can probably give The Deuce a pass - made by the same guys who did The Wire - although it is the best watched of all their shows so you might like it.
Travelers is a sci fi show from Canada/Netflix. Easy watching, with a hot blonde chick. It's really not a deep show though, although it's getting increasingly twisty in the plot as sci fi shows often do.
Master of None is Aziz Ansari's show, no set structure, I thought S2 was brilliant.
Halt and Catch Fire is about computers starting from the 80s. It's really good although some don't like S1.
Brooklyn Nine Nine is the funniest sitcom on TV at the moment in my opinion, The Goldbergs is fun because it's 80s set with lots of references for us 80s kids.
Godless: Yeah, it was always going to end like that but I think they could have done a better version.
@RoninWC
I forgot West World, another good show. So much TV these days!Santa Clarita Diet is the Timothy Olyphant one right? I might give it a watch.
No one character annoys me on The Good Place, all of them annoy me at different times, but I think that's the point.
I haven't watched any of those sci fi shows you mention and to be completely honest have only watched the first Sherlock and didn't find it that great so have never returned.
@MN5 Hahaha, fair enough, each to their own. I think I get less annoyed with Vikings than GOT on an episode by episode basis.
I liked how The Duece was just moved along at it's own pace, I must like that kind of stuff - I was annoyed when the season ended though.
I've just started "I'm dying up here" which is a show set in the 1970s about comedians. First episode was pretty good.

@Nepia loads of people are surprised I don't like Vikings. I honestly gave it a really good shot.
Yeah, you like what you like and don't like what you don't like. Although, my brain still can't properly process the fact that TR doesn't like The Wire.
The only bits of Vikings I don't like is when they get too close to the fantasy of GoT. And I'd love to see a non fantasy version of GoT. I'm just not a fantasy fan.

@nepia Santa Clarita Diet isnt to everyones taste (no pun intended)
Some of the scenes are like WTF, while some are funny as, but yep, Olyphant is in it.
I still watch Man in the High Castle and The LAst Kingdom, with the latter being very good ( @MN5 some of the comments I read online were along the lines of 'it is what Vikings should have been')
Not sure if/when S3 of The Last Kingdom is due, IMDB doesnt show anything, so maybe it was canned?
Man in the High Castle looks like another seaosn due next year some time.

The LAst Kingdom
I might check this one out. Wiki said late 2018 for the 3rd season.
Forgot about Man in the High Castle. The worst thing with that show is I didn't read up to refresh myself for S1 and was completely lost for a couple of eps.
Did anyone watch The Bastard Executioner? Is it worth a watch?
-
when the hell do you guys find time to watch all of this TV? Do you have jobs? kids? Things outside to do?
Things i watched to conclusion this year: Game of Thrones, Last Chance U.
Things i started but never finished for various reasons: Mr Robot S2, Designated Survivor, Luke Cage.
How the hell you guys can watch all these shows, and all the sport you seem to watch is beyond me. Well done all of you.

Yes. No. Apparently not.
I basically watch a show before I go to sleep.
-
@mariner4life I barely watch 'normal' TV, and I tend to watch stuff after I have put the Missus to sleep....I will watch an ep or 2 of something most nights (things that are only 40-45mins an ep I can watch 2 easily)
Peaky Blinders is another series that has restarted that I like!
-
@rocky-rockbottom I watched it for maybe 2 1/2 seasons and then I just stopped and don't know where it's up to. You're the Worst is another one like that too, loved it when it first came out and now I don't even know where it;s up too.
Like you and @taniwharugby I don't watch any 'normal' tv at all.

As in "too much porn to also watch endless TV shows"
Only so much a man can fit in after the missus has gone to bed

Just started trying to watch Chaussee d'Amour. It is a Belgian made series with the dialogue in Dutch. OK that's the bad part. On to the good. It's about a woman whose world collapses when her arrogant gynaecologist husband is arrested for taking too much pleasure in his work. As luck would have it, her long estranged Father has just died and left her the freehold of his brothel and she has to move in there with her kids. Much gratuitous sex of many different types and some bloody horny brasses as well as some downright skanky ones.
Meanwhile one of her Father's old friends has had the road outside his garage dug up and a body has been found.
2 episodes on so far and whilst I'm struggling there is a part of it that has me hooked.

So, what you meant to say was too many TV shows.
OK.Got it now.

Our wifi modem died on Xmas day, a nice reminder of just how shit fta and sky is , even allowing for the fact that they normally pile on crap shows over the break it was really really shit.
Been watching Shameless, the us version not the bleaker Uk one. Itβs pretty funny in a twisted way with a wide variety of nudity to cater for all tastes.
Also Emmy Rossum .
