New TV Series to watch

[Doc Shakalou]

I tried watching it on Netflix, and never got into it. I think I made it to the 6 or 7th episode. It's not that I didn't like it, but I believe I was so into Breaking Bad, that Arrested Development didn't fill the void, so to speak.

I've been meaning to re-watch the episodes I saw and so forth. I might do that when I wrap up The Sopranos. I was looking for another series to watch, and I just can't get into The Wire (saw episode 1). And I know it's insane that I haven't watched it. I know.... I know.

Arrested Development is one of the smartest sitcoms ever. It's arguably one of the best sitcoms ever right up there with Seinfeld. It seems like I catch new jokes that I missed the first time each time I watch it.

You couldn't get into Arrested Development or The Wire?

You might just have bad taste.

To be fair the Wire does start a bit slow and can be confusing until you know who is who. No excuse for AD though.

That's true. I've heard many people recommend that, when someone starts out watching The Wire, they should set aside four hours and plow through the first four episodes in one sitting.

Think I've mentioned this before, the whole reason I watched the Wire is because my mom is friends with David Simon's wife.

Obviously there's another thread for this, but did anyone else buy the Game of Thrones blu-ray? I know HBO is known for their quality blu-rays, but I'm still always shocked when I buy a new set and see just how incredible it looks even compared to the HD broadcasts. I can't wait to watch the Blackwater episode.

Has anyone watched Banshee on Cinemax?

Typical tough guy tv show with graphic violence and plenty of women.

I watched the first episode and a half and kind of lost interest. It looks like it could be decent enough to stick with, but probably never all that good.

I got season 1 blu-ray as a present, need to grab season 2.

New season of Southland started last week on TNT and it is as good as it ever was.

If you had me watch it and never told me what network it was on, I would have immediately said HBO. It's pretty brutal and gritty and real for basic cable drama.

Def recommend it, even if you're not into cop shows.

Smallville. Worth the time?

If you like a popcorn, monster-of-the-week show that never matures.

I concur with SouthLAnd. I've been a fan of it, since it was on NBC. And I'm glad that the powers that be, saw fit for it to be on TNTY, instead. Very gritty/real.. The writing is fantastic, with a good cast of characters. Tonights episode was phenomenal, all the way up until the end.

I tried to get into that show but just couldn't. I think it was because I had already seen The Wire and The Shield. Southland just feels tame by comparison.

Anyone ever seen the show Sherlock? My sister recommended it to me. It has two seasons with 3 episodes each. But each episode is 90 minutes long so it's almost like a movie. I watched the first episode and I thought it was amazing.

Here's a link to watch it for free online, let me know what y'all think. The second episode wasn't that great but apparently season 2 is unbelievably good
