Took me forever to get watching it but the series Louie has been great. Finally caught up via Netflix. I think it's actually one of the better written "comedy" series in a long time. I put comedy in quotaions because for me it comes off more of a dark comedy. Always been a Louie CK stand up fan and it does transfer over to his television series but the entire show is so much more. Each episode is like a short story put to screen with smart writting and **** CK is actually a quality actor. I have been addicted.

Broadchurch season 2 has been hit or miss. The hits are really good, though.

I know a bunch of people enjoy stuff about WWII on here, I just started watching a series on Netflix called, Ken Burns: The War. Has a lot of footage that I hadn't seen before, and first hand accounts from people and families involved. It's pretty kickass if you like that sorta thing.

1 season, 7 episodes

Wow, even tho I think you are a complete joke and a tool; I appreciate the recommendation. Love WWII stuff.

With the Old Breed.. Still get emotional if I talk about that book.

12 Monkeys is a great show on the Sci Fi network. I would recommend it to anyone that likes sci fi in general and the movie in particular.

I just finished watching Daredevil on Netflix and it was a pretty good series as well. Other shows I watch are Forever, Death in Paradise, Blacklist, Agents of Shield, Person of Interest, and Elementary.

I just completed Starman.

Really addictive show, I didn't expect it to be so good. It's based on the movie from 1984, but IMO, the movie isn't as good as the TV series.

wtf, are you talking about the show from 1986? Uh, I'm all set.

4 episodes in. Great so far.

Been binge watching the last few days- I like it. I have a difficult time seeing D' ONofrio as anything other than Private Pyle. But pretty good series. Pleasantly surprised to see Rosario Dawson make an appearance as well.

I finished it last night. It's great all the way through. I'm eager to see Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Nick Cage and The Defenders, now.

On episode 8 so far. Fisk's role was perfectly casted.

I just finished it up today. Maybe because I binge watched it- I was ready to strangle the blonde chick towards the end. Most every scene in the last four episodes consisted of her crying and everybody apologizing to each other. I kept thinking "Get the **** on with it already". I realize they were building it up and trying to create some feeling among and towards the characters. But I'm not sure I gave a shit about any of them by the end. I'll tune into season two. Season one was good- just maybe a few episodes too long

2 episodes to go on Daredevil and wow did they do a great job with it. Acting is great all around, fight scenes are top notch, and its got the perfect gritty feel to it. Couldn't agree more that D'Onofrio was the perfect choice for Fisk. A lot of people probably think Pyle most of the time but I always see his nut job character from The Cell. Even under all the extra weight and being completely bald I can still see it in his eyes and it creeps me the **** out.

The wife and I watched True Detective over the last few weekends.

It was okay. I was expecting a lot more, very predictable.
