    I found them all entertaining as well. But the best thing about Iron Fist was his side kick...she’s cute!

    Both of them were in GOT as well. She was definitely looking good in that role too.

    If anyone wants a quick 6 episode true series, McMillions on HBO was decent. I never knew there was a McDonald's Monopoly Scandal.

    Now it's as good a time as any to really commit to watching Lost. It's a great mind bender.

    Additionally, Scrubs is fun to revisit.

    For more classic fans, My Three Sons is a great light-hearted comedy. So are the following:

    -I Dream of Jeanie
    -M.A.S.H.
    -The Rifleman (more drama than comedy but Chuck Connors is a badass. Google him.)
    -Hogan's Heroes

    Or if you like WWII topics you could watch the whole Band of Brothers series and chase it down with The Pacific.

    There are literally so many good shows to enjoy, but I prefer the classics. source.gif

    Wife I recently went through all 5 seasons of You're The Worst...completely fell in love with the characters, and it will be one of my all time favourite shows. Highly recommended.

    A lot of great HBO series already mentioned, especially Chernobyl.
    Curb Your Enthusiasm with Larry David is brilliantly funny. If you loved Seinfeld even a little, you'll enjoy it.

    And I guess I should give a shameless plug for my avatar, to watch The Prisoner for free on Amazon Prime. A very allegorical series from the 1960s that is still relevant today.

    Finally! found someone else who loves this as much as I do. 'After Life' and 'Californication' have a similar angle on what constitutes a protagonist though they aren't as funny ha ha as they are darkly humorous. 'Eastbound and Down' is better than 'Vice Principles' which is very good in its own right and both have the same anti-hero bent while being funny ha ha.

    From across the pond, 'Upstart Crow' (very funny if you remember any Shakespeare from school), 'An Idiot Abroad' and the original 'Taskmaster' (NOT the US version) are highly recommended.

    +1 Upstart Crow (btw hilarious stage version was last thing I saw when in London pre-CV)

    Blackadder - series 2-4 had same writer Ben Elton, comedy genius

    +1 B/Bad, still unsurpassed

    Try Brit cop corruption show Line of Duty, esp series 2-4 ("Lindsey Denton" arc)

    Thanks @Steve9pm for well-timed bump :thumbsup:, and best wishes to all for the times ahead.

    I will second The Good Place. It is fun and a nice break from our apocalyptic feeling world these days.

    Tried it. Laughed here and there, and I'm a sucker for Kristen Bell, but just couldn't get into it.

    I am always down for a good Top Gear episode.

    This topic hasn't come up in 2 years. Seems a lot of us were desperate for some quarantine shows to watch haha. I know winters over but did anyone watch anything recently that's note worthy?

    Severance on Apple TV was fantastic (In my top 5 of all time series, possibly top 3. But that can all change in the coming seasons)

    Also watching, This flag Means Death on HBO, MoonKnight on Disney+ and the final season of Better Call Saul.

    Oak Island I think just concluded for the season but I'm basically done with that series. Makes for decent background noise while I'm busy on my phone or laptop.

    Finally got around to watching the Witcher. Excellent show so far.

    I have the final season of Peaky Blinders, the 2nd season of The Flight Attendant, and the final 4 episodes of Ozark on the back burner for when I find time.

    Series to start once I've finished all else
    Kin
    Outer Range
    Sweet Tooth
    Yellowstone
