Guys I need recommendations on the next TV series I should start watching.

Finally watched the Witcher. Pretty good, though I thought it was a little weird at times.  Loved the actress who played Yennifer.

Definitely a show that unless you've read one of the books or played the games, it can be hard to follow.

The time jump back and forth was a little confusing.

Cobra Kai Season 3 was awesome.  

It was really good and I liked it much better than season 2. I just hate one character and I think that if this one character acted responsibly then the show improves a lot, or maybe there is just much less of a show (and no I'm not talking about Daniel or Johnny).

Ah yes, the bombshell they tried to pass off for a hunchback for a few episodes like nobody would notice.

Sam

True.  I agree, she's a big part of the problems.    But that's something that Daniel needs to work on with her...Sam brings some of the problems on herself, Daniel brought some of the problems on himself when he was a kid.  He still does, to a degree.

Where is Stingray at? Season 3 is better but no Stingray really brings it down a notch.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but Bosch on Amazon prime is an excellent show.

SyFy’s Resident Alien just premiered last Wednesday. Seems pretty good. First episode was enough to hook me.

I'm actually watching Your Honor which is pretty good

Netlfix Series

Another great season of The Expanse.  Waiting for the last season is going to be tough.

This season was pretty interesting and exciting a lot of the time, but

Spoiler

I really hate Inaros and a lot of Belters treating him like a king.  Also I really couldn't stand watching Naomi struggling with her ship for another minute. lol

That was such a grueling set of scenes.  Made you feel her agony, but in a good way.  Kind of like the feeling of watching the Revenant.  She had hypoxy and was burned to hell from the hard vac transit and she found a way to get through all of her trials out of sheer love for her son and Holden and crew.  I thought she was really great this season and the show gave her and Amos a chance to shine.

 

Alex's death was shocking and disappointing.  They didn't really foreshadow it and it almost felt unceremonious and undersold.  Alex doesn't die in the books from what I can tell, it was instead Fred Johnson who died from a stroke after a high G burn.  I'm going to miss his character.

Love Nancy Drew.  I think they made a mistake in giving Flash another season. The show is spent. Also, Legends of Tomorrow is spent also.

Spoiler

Alex's death wasn't foreshadowed because it was edited in after filming ended. A lot of women, including some from the Expanse crew, came forward accusing him of sexual harassment. He got fired, so they had to either recast for next season, write him off the show with an offscreen explanation/death, or kill him the way they did. For needing to CGI him out of the Luna party, they did a good job, but it was very jarring. It will still be jarring not having him be the heart of the crew that he was in the TV and book series.

 

Me after finishing season 5 and the last book not coming for another 8 months.

OMG I didn't know that about the actor.  That is so freaking disappointing.  What an asshole.  Yeah that was pretty seamless CGI work, I didn't even realize what was going on.  It just felt tonally and emotionally off.

It's something that the book series explains so much more clearly. The time to explain gets paved over by the TV series a little too much:

Spoiler

The ring worlds are going to make the Belters go extinct in their own lifetime. Mars is obsolete but not everyone there realizes it yet, which Bobbie mentions during the season.

 

Season 4 shows one of the ring's worlds being settled, and season 5 shows some of it at the beginning. The worlds are viable, and people are going to flock there because it's easier and healthier to live in open worlds with gravity than to live in zero-gravity or terraform a planet like Martians planned to do. Adult Belters will never be able to settle on a planet because of the strain of gravity after living in zero gravity for so long. Belter children's muscles and probably even young adults' muscles aren't permanently deformed by the lack of gravity yet, so their best option would be to live on a planet while they can still develop muscles to tolerate gravity. Aside from tradition and family, younger Belters have no reason to stay in space.

 

Inaros for the Belters is sort of a Trump-with-warships character. A promise to go back to the old ways, but with Belters in charge.

Yeah, it really is a shame. He was the most out-going member of the team and did a lot of interactions with the public. It put it all in a new light, but he had so many good things going for him and squandered it.
