watched 7 eps last night, find it a bit slow to be honest, but enjoying it, I would give it 7.5/10
Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?

Its very bleak isn't it but a great story all the same.
You still watching Ghost Wars, @pauldyson1uk ?
Doesn't seem very popular judging from the torrent seeds.

A.P. Bio is enjoyable.
Yeah, it's a decent watch. Although doubt it'll last more than a couple of seasons
"Live" on Netflix was surprisingly very good. It's a Korean cop show that delves into the police officers and culture instead of crime based mysteries like most cop shows. Even as a PO based in the US, i could relate to the issues and police culture and situations in the Korean based show
Yes it was bleak, but the story was excellent , kept me watching till the end and I will watch season 2.
Nah got bored with it.
I'm with you there
Have you seen Stranger with Doona Bae? It was also on Netflix (not sure if it still is) ?
Yes, that was very good too
Watched the first episode due to the rating on here and IMDB and my word it was soo boring and depressing.
Not sure i got the stomach to watch another episode.
‘The Americans’ - perhaps the best drama currently on US cable. Its series finale is Wednesday after a stellar six year run.
I watched it consistently for the past six years, but it would be a hell of a show to binge.

I thought the same, not going to lie it is a bleak series, but the story is excellent and some of the acting is top notch, if you can stick with it, but I know where your coming from.
Started Happy last night, think Im going to like this show a lot.
Finished Barry yesterday. Well worth a watch.
Legion, which is the most visually incredible series there's ever been. That also doesn't get enough love on the cafe.

I've watched it and there is lots to like about it but I've not been totally sold for the last 2 or 3 seasons. Still enjoying it but a few things bug me.
The daughters conversion to the cause isn't very believable. Why wouldn't they get the Russians to bale out the travel agency to keep their cover? And why has Stan suddenly become suspicious when nothing has changed? And a few other things
Cardinal. A very competent and surprisingly satisfying Canadian cop drama.
Will try to stick with it, will have to be on a cold rainy day when i am bored shitless lol.
I'm kind of sad Designated survivor was cancelled.
Sure, the show is objectively, cringeworthily bad, but I enjoyed it all the same.

I think the daughter storyline isn't helped by having such a poor actress. I like the Americans but think it's very over rated. It can be pretty dull and repetitive a lot of the time.
there is still a slim chance it will be picked up , season 2 finished on a massive cliffhanger.

Yes, just saw the season 2 finale. Sucks if it ends there. Heard Netflix might pick it up.
Safe on Netflix. Michael C Hall. Murder mystery drama set in a gated community somewhere in the sarf. If you can get past MCH's strained accent it's pretty decent.
Just started watching The Newsroom. It has been brilliant so far, great acting (Emily Mortimer 
), crisp dialogues, it's really been very gripping.

Not laugh out loud funny but the three lead characters are very likeable.
Some episodes are very good but it's mostly a casual watch.
Also massive respect for the guys as they started from a YouTube series

first ep of Happy , is fecking mental, love it
The first two episodes are the best. The show has to reconnect with planet Earth after that, and it's a shaky touchdown.
Is it that bad? I know a few Brits on fb who were talking about watching the show and when i asked them what they thought about his accent they didn't even know he was actually American (never watched Dexter or anything else he did).
Finished it last night, would agree with what you said.
Barry is really good. Even if it wasn't I'd still be glad I watched the entire season just for..

AMC's 'the Terror' was really good. Some critics are calling it a near masterpiece. I enjoyed the Alienist more but both are good period thriller/horrors.
Pretty much this. Decent watch but the first two eps were the best.

properly classic moment.Really liked Barry too. Surprise of the year so far for me. Hader was surprisingly great given I've only seen him do silly slapstick before
I get your point on Paige and the actor portraying her and agree.
My enjoyment for the show stems out of it being far more understated and more character driven. I had enjoyed the development of the characters and the time it has taken to do so. The series has become a bit stale in the recent seasons, the same issue many dramas have. The show doesn’t try to depend on banal humor or trite action, isn’t geared to the low brow consumer, which is refreshing.
Sad to have just watched the last episode. I certainly have a television hole to fill, even more so this time next year when ‘Homeland’ is completed.
Totally get from where you are coming, the series has become a bit stale in the past two seasons à la ‘Homeland.’ Just finished the last episode, wasn’t sure where it was going to end, liked that it left a few major plot lines unfinished with some tension still palatable.
What is 'Reverie' like? Seems interesting.
Just watched the last 2 episodes. A decent way to end the series.
Sad too that its over, it was a great show and the finale was handled brilliantly. I was a teenager in the 80's and this show really did a fantastic job of recreating the atmosphere of the era it portrayed.
