Great TV series - What are you watching now?

sygazelle · 04-25-2021, 10:45 PM

We watched the first 3 seasons of Billions on Amazon Prime. That last two seasons required Showtime. Good news is Showtime is running a special right now: First 2 months for 99 cents per month and then it increases to $10.99 per month.

We will watch the last two seasons of Billions and then see if Showtime is worth keeping.

Anyone else think Billions is an amazing show?

Yes, it’s a great show. I’ve been through it a couple of times but could do it again.

Showtime has some good shows. Dexter is old but that was a great show. Ray Donovan (mostly first few seasons, spiraled last couple) was also very good. Your Honor, Homeland, House of Lies (old now) and Tudors (old) are a few others.

The opening scene of Billions hooks you, at least it did me. I love that show, can't wait for the rest of the current season to be released.

Wife and I started season 4 of Handmaid's Tale. So far its decent, although I personally think its time to wrap up the story a bit.

I've been hooked by Another Life Don't know what it is about Niko (Katee Sackhoff), but she is incredibly HAWT

One of the absolute best shows on NETFLIX returns. . . https://www.whats-on-netflix.com/new...ar-04-27-2021/

Been watching Debris and got through the first 5 episodes so far. It's decent, not great. It reminds me of a modern version of the X Files.

We’re waiting for the whole Season to be available on Hulu to binge watch; otherwise, to your point, the story kinda plods along if watching one week at a time.

Not as hot as a number six, but Katee's always been hot.

Captain Blood · 04-29-2021, 02:36 PM

We started "good girls" last week. The pilot was fantastic, the rest of the episodes are above average. But Christina Hendrix is super hot. On fire.

She was excellent as Joan in Mad Men. May have to give this a look.

OkieSnuffBox · 04-30-2021, 09:14 AM

I know it's an older show, but we just started Loudermilk. Hilarious.

We saw Brian Regan at the comedy club last Friday and he mentioned he was in it. Already watched the first two seasons.

One of my favorites of all time.

stein_325i · 04-30-2021, 10:28 AM

Not sure how they are gonna fix the show after giving us one of the worst endings of all time.

ramman434 · 04-30-2021, 10:39 AM

Brian Regan is one of my all-time favs. Jealous you got to see him live!

Talked the wife into watching Drive to Survive on Netflix. She was super hesitant, bc she could care less when I watch F1, now she's hooked.

We go to the Comedy Club anytime someone who is good is coming through, and occasionally get free tickets.

In the last 18 months we've Bert Kreischer, Nick Offerman, Dave Attell, Pablo Fransico (won free tickets), Mark Normand, and Brian Regan.

Trying to decide if we are going to go see Drew Lynch next month.

WTH? That "teaser" isn't helping me think it's going to get any better after that terrible final season. I think it just got too jacked up to be salvaged but I guess we'll see.

Honestly that whole season was terrible, but how they handled Debra's character especially was just awful.

TiMSport · 04-30-2021, 03:43 PM

Agreed. I was shocked with what happened to his sister. She didn't deserve such a lousy ending. This show is right up there with "Lost" as far as sucking with the end. Lol.

That final season(8) was not good and season 6 (with the Doomsday Killers) was terrible.

Finally finished Made for Love, overall really enjoyable dark comedy with a interesting/unique plot, easy to binge as well with only 8 half-hour episodes.
