Runnin,
Sorry but you have to be on drugs to watch that. It is too convoluted. I only watch it because it comes on after WWE wrestling and I have the TV on when I am surfing for better cooking techniques.
Mr. Robot is the tits
I found Mr. Robot interesting. Read a good review of the first season over at Vulture (New York magazine's daily arts e-newsletter) that called the show engrossing, but just not quite there yet. I'm really curious to see where they go with the second season. If the teaser is any indication, I may be in for a let-down.
My favorite show is Review, led by the incomparable Andy Daly. True comic gold.
The fact that brule likes the show tells me all I need to know.
Anyone gonna watch this?

Haven
Whoa, it was really good tonight.
Duke......scares the hell out of me.
Those "troubles" from the aether, wow, a lot of them waiting to get out. Not a good thing.
Fargo Season 2 episode 1 was good. American Horror Story jumped the shark seasons ago. Now they're just continually dry humping the shark. Only 2 1/2 more months 'til It's Always Sunny season 11, so have to continually watch reruns in anticipation.
Agreed on Fargo. It's gonna be a much better follow up than True Detective Season 2 was. I'm also finishing up Bloodline on Netflix. Highly recommend.
Since I got cable now...use to have Direct TV, but those bastards wanted me to pay 30 more a month for ESPN and other sports network not name NFL/NBA/MLB which I can see for free but college is different, I dropped them after 7 years. Cable offered me the premium package, internet (which I have already) and phone (which I don't use) for 100 a month for 3 years, I say again 3 years. I get all the movie, premium channels, sports minus the ones I listed for 3 years, for just a 100 bucks and DVR and 2 receivers.
So now I can watch H2, History Channel and Animal Planet all day.
Now this show, I see it advertised all the time, but something is not grabbing me like The Flash or Arrow or Continuum even Haven. It seems to try and depict a soap as a season. This is why I don't like prime time TV trying to adopt Soap like stories. The 100 and The Tomorrow People tried this, the latter failed (a travesty), the other have some intriguing qualities.
The Last Kingdom on BBC is a great show if you're into Vikings or Game of Thrones.
Another great show for those with Netflix: Wentworth. Superb.
I really enjoyed the first season of Fargo and the first episode of season 2 was excellent.
Strong recommend for anyone looking for a new show to follow.
Fargo has been outstanding so far.
'Ash vs Evil Dead' is not trailblazing but is still very entertaining to me - as someone who loves the whole Sam Raimi Evil Dead trilogy and the Ash Williams character played by Bruce Campbell. Also picked up on 'Master of None show' from another thread and its been great fun. Love Aziz Ansari from Parks and Recreation.
I agree, Master of None is terrific. Haven't checked out Ash vs the Evil Dead yet, though I really want to.
Narcos and Jessica Jones are two great shows as well on Netflix. About half way through the 1st season of Jessica Jones. I highly recommend both shows.
Has anyone seen The Man in the High Castle?
Just binged watched it. I haven't read the novel it's based on, but I was intrigued by the alternative history (universe?) theme and the moral quandaries posed. The main actors aren't as good as some of the supporting cast, but hopefully will improve. Hope Amazon does a second season.
Narcos a Netflix original was awesome for the first season. Hope they make more.
I liked the first half of the Jessica Jones season, but damn did it drag on and on with little development after that. It seemed like the writing and the acting degredated as the show went on.
Broadchurch season 2 was probably even better than season 1. Seriously it is so good.
Highly recommend BBC's "River." Six-episode miniseries that's on Netflix.
For you folks who are fans of The Wire, perhaps the greatest drama in television history.
Melvin Williams, the real-life inspiration for Avon and the guy who played the church deacon, has died at 73.

Fargo just keeps on delivering. Wow.
