    What are you currently watching? My friend and I binged The Path over the weekend and we both really liked it.

    I just finished Daredevil season 1 last week and am now watching Jessica Jones. Both are top notch, though I have heard season 2 of Daredevil ain't that great. :( I'll still watch it, tho.

    Kingdom just started back up last week as well, and it's one of my faves.

    There hasn't been much since SOA ended. Thought Bastard Executioner would be the next one but that was so bad that Sutter pulled the plug on it himself.

    Bates Motel but that season has ended and not sure how that is going to go forward with the mom dead.

    Barbarians on History starts tonight that looks promising but it is going against the Pens game.

    Other that that and with the Reds so bad I may shut my cable off again after the Stanley Cup finals. I turned it off 2 of the last 4 summers and actually enjoyed it!

    Started Hell on Wheels on Netflix. Onto season 5 now. Wasn't really sure what to expect, but turned out I have really liked it.

    New season of Peaky Blinders just hit Netflix last week. So I'll be getting that in here soon.

    Fraser and Star Trek TNG for me. Been watching both for over a yr, I'm a very slow TV Watcher it seems.

    I always pick a series and watch one episode on my lunch break (almost) daily. So if there are a lot of seasons, it will take me a long time. Gilmore Girls took me close to 10 months.

    But then there are shows where I'll watch 10+ eps in a single weekend. It just depends.

    Current shows:
    The Americans, which finishes up this Wed. To me, the greatest show on TV right now acting and story wise.
    Finishing up the last installment of Roots that premiered last week. I like it as it follows the original pretty well.
    Game of Thrones
    Penny Dreadful: Has its spots where it is very good.
    Veep: Most realistic show about DC

    Previous shows:
    Deadwood: About halfway through and it is pretty good.

    I ran through Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt recently.

    I was pleasantly surprised, lots of lulz.

    Has anybody caught the first couple of episodes of Preacher on AMC? I recorded the series but haven't started it.
  • gut
    Yeah, The Americans is great.

    Person of Interest has been pretty consistently strong, but it's in it's final few episodes.

    Many people say 12 Monkeys is the best sci-fi show in years, but it's ratings are failing and it's likely to be canceled after only two season.

    I couldn't tell you why exactly, but I hated it. My friend who I watched it with said the second episode last night wasn't any better. For some reason there was a two week gap inbetween the pilot and episode two.

    GoT is about it for me right now. This time of year is miserable for TV. "Murder in the First" on TNT is probably one of my favorite shows. It starts back up in a couple weeks.

    Current Shows...

    Quantico (just started, maybe on 4th episode).
    Marvel Agents of Shield
    The 100
    Scorpion (this show has jumped the shark in my opinion, repetitive story lines now).
    Blindspot
    The Goldbergs
    Life in Pieces (funniest show on TV right now)
    The Big Bang Theory (used to be funniest show on TV, then got too mainstream with less actual science/technology jokes).

    I really enjoyed the 1st season of Billions.

    I tried to start jessica jones the other day and watched 3 or 4 episodes but I couldn't get into it.

    I watched all of Better call Saul (everything that was available) and I actually like it better than breaking bad.
  • Commander of Awesome
    One thing I've realized after reading this thread, I watch considerably less TV (but prob way more sportz) than most people.

    Loved Jessica Jones. Can't wait for 2nd season.
    On episode 3 of season 2 of Daredevil. Definitely not as good as the first season so far.

    Less TV ....more project
    With this new job and other projects I've started my time is limited, and it feels good not watching TV

    I hate Saul. Watched S1 and all the way up till last episode of S2, went on a trip for work and just never even watched the finale. It's so slow moving. The brother is a wasted plotline with no purpose. And a bunch of law shit is boring. Need more Slippin Jimmy.

    Anyway, you are in luck that amc basically said they don't care about ratings (they are bad), so it won't be cancelled.

    Bullshit. Better Call Saul is awesome.

    I agree...I love Saul.
  • Laley23
    You're all confusing Mike with Saul. If they just turned it into 80% Mike, it would be amazing.

    The show is great. You might be the first person I've ever heard not like it.
  • Terry_Tate
    Only seen season 1 of Better Call Saul but it was awesome. Missed staying on top of season 2 so will just wait for Netflix. Both Saul and Mike are great though.

    Almost done with Daredevil season 2. Season 1 was fantastic, but season 2 has been pretty good as well. Don't care much for the Hand part of the storyline, but other than that it's been enjoyable.
