    Slow Horses is awesome. Grateful for this sub recommending it.

    Perfect blend of spy action with dark humor. Great pacing and writing.

    Series that explores a strong woman's rage and grief

    I adore Killing Eve and, in particular, Sandra Oh's emotional and complex character arch. Toni Collette also gave a very powerful performance around grief in the show Wanderlust. I would love recommendation about shows that focus on women with a good backbone (I hate spineless characters) processing and expressing their rage and/or grief.

    T.V. Show recommendations while running?

    I finally have an indoor treadmill and found out that I really enjoy watching a T.V. series while running...this is about the only time that I watch anything, so I'm pretty new to watching T.V. shows... I'm really not sure what's good. I just finished watching LOTR rings of power, and I'd like to watch something along those lines. My criteria is suspensful, thrilling, but not horror and no nudity or sex scenes... It's not my thing and I'm kind of sick of being blind sided by it. I don't mind gore, but I'm really not into over-the-top, gory just because.

    Halloween horror 2024?

    Are there any horror TV shows released now? Or is 2024 Halloween a dry season for horror tv shows? I can remember last year there were like 3 or 4 horror TV shows released at this time.
    Well if nothing else please just recommend any horror tv shows that could be fun to watch.

    Series Reco??

    Shows like Penny Dreadful, but then lighter ?

    The aesthetics of that show are very spot on what I would like to watch right now, but as a show it’s a bit more serious/dramatic than what I’m feeling. Maybe a bit more action/mystery/fantasy etc. Don’t necessarily want it to be set in a similar time period.

    A good example would be the first season of Netflix’s Sabrina or the first episode of Dracula (2020). None of them were excellent, but they fit my vibe to give you an idea.

    Animated shows are welcome.

    Movies are also welcome.

    If you haven’t watched the mini series Chernobyl yet, I really suggest you do

    I have watched so many shows in my lifetime, but this is one of those that has stuck around with me.

    The cinematography, script, acting, cast, direction. Everything was made to perfection.

    I am on my second rewatch and even though I understood the importance of what happened and the actions taken to help the situation… I am now really grasping that without those actions, some parts of the world would have been truly different and so many more would have suffered.

    It is a 10/10. In case you are looking for something of substance to watch.

    Cool fun show with colorful interesting character designs and abilities?

    I was watching One Piece for a while! Just finished Live-action Netflix one and Loved it!

    Planning to watch more of the anime!

    It's SO fun to watch, mainly cause of unique colorful character designs, so many different types of people/creatures/avatars/outfits/abilities/journeys/hopes/dreams/fighting styles/friend making styles/purposes/things they are good at etc.

    If it wasn't like this, I'd probably never continue a show with a THOUSAND plus episodes!!

    What other TV shows or Movies/Anime (I know it's TV related sub, but if something like this comes to mind, feel free to drop a reply).

    Thanks in advance!

    One Peace! ✌️🥰 I don't know why I said that, but I'm owning it! 😃

    Shows that are fun and keep you at the edge of your seat but aren't that serious

    In my head I'm thinking of the two netflix shows Santa Clarieta Diet and Dead To Me, they both have a very light comedic vibe and in typical netflix fashion have a lot of crazy twists and turns/cliffhangers.

    The Affair is Really Good

    It's a mystery, character driven and imo leads to serious introspection. My partner and I watched this together and ended up discussing our relationship on a deeper level. We would often discuss the "what if", not because him or I have done anything like the dramas (spoilers) that happen, but the show makes you really think about empathy, partnership and loyalty. I don't want to say anything too much but I want to emphasize the loyalty and how people who truly love each other can hurt each other. Or maybe you have a different opinion? Which makes it sooooooo interesting.

    recommend fun tv shows (preferable comedy or romance) with pretty main character

    I find it easier to watch and get invested in for some reason when the main character is super pretty, (for reference im a girl 😂) so i really like Wednesday, the good place, one tree hill, the oc, shameless, gossip girl, Gilmore girls, friends, new girl.

    Couple and era similar to that of the tv show rivals and taggy (Agatha) and Rupert

    The new tv show rivals has me in a chokehold I never thought I’d love mid 80s England as an era setting ins tv show and I was pleasantly surprised. If you’ve watched the show you’ll know taggy is a young women with dyslexia who is a fond lover of animals and is very self sufficient Rupert is a 40ish year old retired sports champion playboy prime minister for sport who sleeps with anything with a pulse. The two have underlying chemistry the whole short series and I am on of many who are enthralled with them anyone who’s watched have any similar recommendations

    Suggest me good series based on my favorites

    Ted Lasso

    The Bear

    Normal People

    Sex Education

    Shrinking

    Emily in Paris

    So I want to watch shows that are close to the heart with great positive characters. These shows give off all the positive vibes I wish for(except Normal People but it's the best). I need more positivity right now. A good tear jerker is fine but not too sad that I wanna sit and cry. Other than these if there are any other great ones I shouldn't miss that are not too known like GoT or Breaking Bad, hit me.

    Any good weekly comedy shows?

    We got kill tony on mondays (not necessarily TV) and SNL on saturdays. The rest of the week i'm sulking in sadness from the lack of good comedies. Anything else that produces comedies routinely is either too political like late night talk shows or just plain old corporate commercial TV cringe. Any recommendations?

    plz help with finding a show for 65m, 62f, and 32m to watch

    we need help with finding a show for the three of us to enjoy watching together. I'll give some examples of shows we each vibe with.

    62f favorite show is Mad Men. a couple others are The Handmaid's Tale, Ozark, and You. really likes liam neeson

    32m is yours truly. some of my favorites are Twin Peaks, Mr. Robot, Haunting of Hill House, Dark, Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul, always sunny

    65m really enjoyed Game of Thrones basically up until the last season, The Boys, Boardwalk Empire. i think he likes nic cage

    collectively, we really enjoyed watching Fargo together. also, we are watching The Penguin. pretty dope but 62f doesn't vibe with that one as much. any suggestions would be great, thanks!
