Looking for something new to watch on TV

[Bechet]

I found Vikings on Amazon Prime when I inadvertently joined for a free trial month - worth £6.58.They then sent me an email offering me £20 off an annual subscription - but oh! so sorry, I'm not eligible because I'm already a member! I'll buy elastic bands or wood shavings or somesuch and have them sent next day delivery for free.

"Best" three shows, in my eyes, that are on TV at the moment;

River,
Ash vs Evil Dead,
Fargo
First Dates (it's a guilty pleasure...)


Shows that truly disappointed me this season were;
- American Horror Stories
- Jekyll and Hyde (I tried...just couldn't get into it...),
- Supergirl,
- London Spy (I made it through half the first episode),
- True Detective, and
- ..ugh..this season of Doctor Who...


Haven't checked out yet but sounds interesting:
- Into the Badlands, and
- The Frankenstein Chronicles,
- The Romeo Section,
- Unforgotten and
- The Last Kingdom

I try not to follow more than 3-4 shows so there will be some weeding out.

Wonder if the knobber that is Clem Fandango is any relation to...........

Love that show.

"Yes, I can HEAR you, Clem Fandango!"

Ash Vs The Evil Dead is quite 'entertaining'...

Opening scene : Ash splashes on Clubman AS, how can it not be worth a look ,

Agree with DB on Fargo. Half way through series 2 and it is truly wonderful. Well on par with series 1.

 

[Stacy555]

+1 for Fargo
Is Clem Fandango still on work experience ??
American Horror stories Hotel ... /yawn
True detective season 2 better than 1

I hadn't heard of Fargo before - started watching series 1 on Netflix last night and got through about 8 episodes - you know the feeling - just one more. Hilarious in parts and with some great acting. Looking forward to another marathon session tonight.

Fargo 1 & 2 great TV, Homeland one of the finest series ever in my opinion up there with breaking bad.

Mentioned earlier by Crysto it's usually feast or famine with me so just crashed through the first season of the superb Mr Robot after receiving a firestick for Xmas (Amazon Prime or your nearest streaming service).

I have just finished the first season of Arrow; superb.

 

[jb74]

Glad to hear Mr Robot is deemed worthy, t'was added to my backlog last week and could be due an outing next week once I finish Luther season one.

If you like Arrow, then give The Flash and Gotham a try - both very good if you're into the comic book hero type thing.

 

[Nishy]

I started on the flash but didn't do it for me, Gotham is on the to watch list.

 

[Darkbulb]

Just finished watching the three-part mini series "And then there were none".
I'm normally not a big fan of books-turned-to-movies/TV but this one I think they did really well.
Amazing cast and acting.

 

[Darkbulb]

I started on the flash but didn't do it for me, Gotham is on the to watch list.

I felt that The Flash TV show was targeting a rather young audience.
In comparison to the, I think, excellent and rather gritty Daredevil TV show from earlier this year it felt like a kid's show

I liked many of the regurged DC/Marvel films...Batman, Iron Man, Thor, Spidey (Maguire not Garfield) and so on but a whole TV series/seasons on minor Supers is just too much of a stretch. Next for me is A Man in the High castle.
