mcsluggo Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) Check out Inspector Morse if you like Foyle's. I liked both very much. It's kind of dated but they're good mysteries. To use your parlance, it's the highly intelligent, cranky but loveable get off my grass man solving crimes set at Oxford in the 80's. It leads to a few good spin offs too. I will try it! i just started kicking into Poirot on Netflix... same idea (and revealing the fact that i am in the process of geezering into my dad the other British series that i am about to finish is the Inbetweeners --- completely different! can anyone suggest a good follow on to that one?? (it is a comedy about several disgusting and pathetic but funny English high school kids) Edited June 18, 2015 by mcsluggo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The geezer is strong in me too. Edited June 18, 2015 by KAOSkins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 i've been watching Foyle's War lately, and am almost done with it, and will be looking for its replacement. Its basically "Diagnose murder matlock she wrote rockfish files"... set in WWII england. I think somebody should set up a series where Steven King roams around maine solving supernatural scooby doo like mysteries with a few of his wacky friends --- I would suggest Andy Griffith, Dick Van Dyke, Angela Lansbury and James Gardner--- but some of them are getting long of tooth, or pushing daisies... My parents love the Murdock Mysteries and Death In Paradise shows on Netflix (also on Amazon I think). They're pretty good. Ripper Street is great as well, though a lot darker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Just finished 4400. I thought it was really good. The chick that played Isabelle was ridiculously hot. Of course they rushed the last season, but all in all, we liked it. Getting ready to to fire up S3 of Orange is the New Black now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they rushed the last season, but all in all, we liked it. Getting ready to to fire up S3 of Orange is the New Black now. Cool, was wondering if you liked 4400 or not. Some on here said it wasn't that good, I think I might have been one of the only positive endorsements. It was real good, last season was a major rush job, which is a shame. At least there were four seasons though before it got the axe. Have fun with OITNB, started out real slow imo, but I felt got stronger towards the middle/end and set-up for what should be a really good season 4.

Fan since a Fetus Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I started Supernatural on Netflix. Half way through season one and I am enjoying it so far. There are a ton of shows, so I have a lot of catching up to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearing really good things about Mr. Robot, I'll have to check out the pilot when they re-air or catch it on-demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a ton of shows, so I have a lot of catching up to do. One of my favorite shows. It's still pretty good (currently), though I'd like for them to change up the story again. But I won't post what I'd like to see cause it would ruin for ya. Enjoy the ride FSAF, carry on my wayward son......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chew Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Nurse Jackie. Edie Falco's show ended it's 7 season run on Showtime last night. Great series, good to see Mrs. Soprano get her own show. She was a pill-popping, cocaine snorting nurse who struggled to manage her failing marriage, ungrateful kids, rocky friendships, and many extramarital affairs LOL. The Showtime drama-with-comedic-elements has been among the finest, most original, and most uncompromising series on TV since 2009. - Matthew Gilbert, Boston Globe The final season of Nurse Jackie has only been reviewed by 6 critics, but it is currently getting 100% approval rating on rottentomatoes. Great show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visionary Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Fargo Season 2 trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFVNi8gUEy4&feature=youtu.be I had mixed feelings about the first season. I thought it went back and forth from slightly boring but well written to exciting but unbelievable. I thought the acting was great on the most part however and it was pretty popular and somewhat acclaimed. And this season looks intriguing, although listening to the trailer I had forgotten how much the accents annoy me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
