Lets talk about tv shows in general...anyone become popular enough "game of thrones" can divergent to its own thread where the viewers can discuesss it openly.


Rules:

If you are watching a tv show based on a book or comic please don't spoil it by refferancing the source material to ruin what is to come in the tv show.

For tv shows based off movies: Fargo, Hannibal, bates motel I feel it is fair game..

I mean he'll they seem to base these shows on movies what have been out so long it is your own fault for not watching the movie before watching the show.

Currently I am watching: orange is the new black, the 100, big bang theory, 2 broke girls, bates motel, game of thrones,star wars clone wars (still making my way through season 3), and I was enjoying too human but that got killed off sigh  :-({|=

I am going to rematch orange is the new black before starting season two as my wife never saw it and wants to get into it.

Finished Fargo last night. That was quite enjoyable. Not perfect, but certainly worthy of some hugs.

I've re watched nearly all of the original Star Trek episodes with my daughter. I haven't seen these in 25+ years. It's funny how I clearly remember certain aspects of an episode, but have absolutely no recollection of the remaining 80-90%.

Curb Your Enthusiasm. I rarely had HBO, so I had only seen a scattering of episodes, mostly from first few seasons. I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea, but I love it.

Currently my wife and I are in season 4 of Breaking Bad. I just caught up on Game of Thrones myself. Beyond that I'm not watching much else unless it's Baseball.

Same here, except on Hulu.  My wife & I fought getting into it for several years, kept hearing how cool it was, but I really felt like I wanted to start allllllllllllllllllllllllll the way back at the beginning with Doctor #1, rather then with 9.  Glad I didn't start the original series first, I probably wouldn't have given the new series a chance.  We love 10/Tenet, he is our favorite so far, not done with 11 just yet & 12 starts soon I believe. 

I have started watching the original series, but mainly in the background.  So far, atleast with the 1st Doctor, it's flipping boring.  I hear good things about Doctor 4, which is "who" I recall seeing on PBS as a kid.  Unfortunately(or maybe fortunately??) there's a lot of missing episodes back from when BBC would record over their own shows!

In general, trying to watch less tv, if only because we just don't have the time!  Was watching Almost Human, but, like mentioned earlier, it was cancelled.  We do watch SHIELD(hoping the next season is better), (Green) Arrow, Falling Skies, Perception, NCIS & LA(& probably New Orleans), CSI, Continuum, the new TMNT, Big Bang Theory.  I watch(without my wife) Nartuo Shippuden, Beware the Batman, Law & Order SVU, Space Dandy, Black Lagoon. 

Used to watch Clone Wars, but the last season is on Netflix.  We do want to see the Defenders series(Daredevil, Iron Fist, Luke Cage...& some chick whose name escapes me) next year, so might have to pick up Netflix, atleast temporarily.  I'd like to watch Avenger's Assemble, though I don't think it's supposed to be as good as Earth's Mightiest Heroes, plus, we don't get Disney XD.  Same goes for the next Transformers series, except we don't get The Hub.

The late 80's War of the Worlds TV series? I remember watching that on WPIX back in the day. I don't know how it would hold up today. I remember it as "OK" as a kid—but I don't remember it keeping me engaged/intrigued for its entire run (a lot of series are like that...the intrigue and charm dissipate). Same goes for Fox's "Werewolf" TV series...I wonder how it would hold up. Have you ever seen that? I liked it when I was a kid, but now...  :pcgs:

Speaking of old shows...The Hitcher was another TV show that I haven't seen in forever.

 I love Tales from the Darkside (most episodes decent, some exceptional). One of the shows I always looked forward to back in the day. The entire opening sequence is pure gold. Close your eyes and it is 10x more powerful (even when I was a kid I wanted to get rid of the cheesy "inverse" video effect used....the original footage of the forest is good, but when it "flips" to the Darkside...ouch.)

I loved this format...Freddy's Nightmares, Tales from the Crypt, Twilight Zone (old and new...old so much better)....but my all-time favorite is ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS. Granted, not quite the same as the others on the list, but still...

Damn, if I had time, there are a lot of things I would watch. (I barely scratched the surface).

I plan on finishing through seasons 2-6 of Tales from the Crypt, starting sometime soon.

I watched all of them to completion, when they first got released onto DVD. It was awesome seeing these get released, I gladly bought them upon release since I enjoyed them on HBO, and the movies in theatres.

But, since the DVD releases, I have not gone through each and every episode. Just a few episodes here, oh I want to watch that episode, etc.

Other than Season 2, the largest season, I recall watching each season to completion within 1-2 days. it may not have happened on the day it arrived, but when I started watching it, I binged. So, it shouldn't take too long.

The Hitcher has had a mess of DVD releases. "Best of" DVD sets in the USA, Canada got a nice "Season 1" set, but it has a bit of compression issues, nowhere near as bad as Ray Bradbury Theatre's DVD release, though.

That's a good one, Esteban. The set can be had for cheap, $10 for the whole series. The series used to run it all the time years ago on USA Network, back when they had Saturday Nightmares, UP! All Night, etc.


I could keep going on, but I'll stop here. :)

MrFulci, we better be careful. I think we could talk about TV for hours over coffee. We watched too much TV (ironic since i didn't a TV until 7th grade, I had to sneak into the basement, pull an old B/W set out of storage just to get my fix of Josie & the Pussycats before school! I loved all the late night USA Network stuff (even Gilbert Godfried...when hosted stuff for a while). Of course, all the greet TV I watched on the weekends when I stayed at my grandma's—my parents knew I was a lost soul.

HERE'S SOMETHING THAT MAY STUMP US: I loved a PBS  educational kids show that was from   70's/80's and had a young girl (she helps solve mysteries) with the help of a talking typewriter. Yeah, it sounds corny, but it had a wonderfully spooky atmosphere and I loved that about the show. She reminds me now of the girl from Land of the Lost (blonde braids), but that simply means it was a generic white girl. I've actually tried to find the title of this show years ago but gave up in frustration.

Don't even get me started on all the PBS shows I have watched. No cable TV makes you an addict.

I'll see what I can dig up about that PBS show you mention.

I watched a lot of Over the air (OTA) television, cable wasn't on all the TVs. OTA, years ago, that's where I would sometimes first see movie such as, Godzilla vs the Smog Monster, Sword of the Valiant, The Pit, etc.

I think it's cool that the torch has been carried by some others, after the transition to digital broadcasting. There are now similar stations such as THIS!, Movies, and a few other I'm forgetting. They feature a good combination of older movies, and older shows.

I know you said 70s-80s but there was a early 90s PBS show called ghostwriter that sounds close to your description. Is that is?

Oh my bad, for whatever reason I read that as you hadn't watched it yet.

Spoilers aside and as a general thought, I still enjoyed it. I think the show is still pretty solid

Yeah to be honest it is feeling pretty rough. I thought it was cool when I was a kid but right now I'm not so sure. I need to watch it a bit more before I decide completely. Tales from the Darkside however remains excellent, as do all the other series like it. Some of the stuff is on Hulu. Hitchcock, Night Gallery, Twilight Zone, Outer Limits etc.

My wife and I watched it a handful of years ago and enjoyed it.  We've been looking for something to watch again and saw it was on Netflix.  It's still really good.  And it turns out it takes place in and around Overland Park, KS which is near our neck of the woods (I work in Olathe, one of it's neighboring towns).

I think it's only 4 seasons long, and I think they were relatively short seasons (it was on Showtime originally) so we'll probably be looking for something else to watch again soon...

Ok, I grew up watching Jon Pertwee & Tom Baker & Peter Davison first, then I was able to watch all the other doctors because PBS was awesome.

Hartnell, the first doctor, is a cranky old man and I kind of like that. A curmudgeon, through and through. The stories and sets and special effects are actually pretty decent, but the sound (at least the recordings I watched on TV back in the day) had a lot to be desired and, believe it or not, I think this single factor (poor sound quality) prevents the show from making a stronger impression with modern audiences. The pacing of the stories, for example, can be slow/tedious throughout the old series  (60's-80's). I used to think the first 2-3 doctors suffered this pacing problem the worst, but now I think it's because folks simply don't find the first two doctors (and/or companions) as charismatic/engaging/etc.

The second doctor is Shemp and I think PBS aired his stuff the fewest number of times. I'm least familiar with him.

All I can say is: give all the doctors a chance. I have my favorites, too.

I also really, really hate when the "companions get in trouble" trope—even as a kid, it annoyed the hell out of me. Some companions are insanely annoying, too. I try to bear with this garbage, but I'll be honest, it is not a consistent show. You take the crap with the gold (at least I do, anyway).

For example, some of the ALL-TIME BEST stories feature the worst companions. Even a horribly annoying companion can't torpedo an otherwise good production. I am of course thinking about ------The Caves of Androzani------ so very awesome, despite Peri (horrible actress simply cannot act).

Peri = worst companion ever.

Anyway, I could go on and on about Dr. Who.

ANOTHER SUGGESTION, IF YOU LIKE BRITISH SCI-FI: If you can find a way to watch Blake's 7, do it. Blake's 7. Much enjoyment.

Which reminds me of more goodness...there's DANGER MAN / SECRET AGENT MAN and The Prisoner...

Before your thread takes off, you've got a typo to fix: "you're" versus "your." FYI.

As for me, I have no TV series to speak of ATM and not for ages since like early ~2000. I tried to finish off Highlander which is 6 seasons on Hulu.com a few years ago, but I stopped at the third and haven't gotten back around to it yet. My DSL sucks and so does streaming but that's only part of the reasons I haven't resumed it. Oh, I did get a few episodes of season 1 of "The Outer Limits" come to think of it back during this time. Anyway, I mostly stick with movies for entertainment I guess, these days at least.

InfraMan

Cool, my wife and I recently started watching Doctor Who as well. It was a little weird at first accepting Barty Crouch as the Doctor, but he's quickly become one of my favorites (right up there with Tom Baker and Jon Pertwee.) Great show!

We've also been watching the old Six Million Dollar man series, which holds up surprisingly well. Speaking of which, William Shatner guest-starred in an episode of season one and my poor TV almost couldn't handle the combined machismo of Shatner and Majors together on screen in full 70s garb. I think my wife got pregnant just from watching it... I fully expect the baby to come out sporting lush chest hair and holding a glass of bourbon.

Oh, and we'll hopefully be re-watching the awesome new Cosmos series on Blu-ray soon.

I haven't seen 6 Million $ or Bionic Woman in ages. I loved those shows. 

One of the best episodes of Bionic Woman involved a sentient computer (like HAL from 2001) and a doomsday weapon that would destroy the planet. 

Sadly, I can't remember any other plot lines from either series! How sad is that. I watched them all, multiple times, back in the day.

Some of you are watching great shows, specifically Curb Your Enthusiasm, Tales from the Darkside, and Tales from the Crypt.

The only shows I regularly watch are South Park and Walking Dead, both of which are on a break right now.  Most of my TV watching doesn't consist of sitcoms/dramas, but rather is baseball or Jeopardy.

However, I am slowly making my way through Louie, as it is something my girlfriend and I can agree on.  We just finished season one and I found it pretty amusing.

It is a little dry, in a similar vein as Curb, so you would likely enjoy it.

BTW - USA Up All Night was awesome and I am glad I wasn't the only one to watch it.

I'm normally not a fan of comedian shows but I think his humor is pretty funny and the show is pretty good.

I was skeptical at first as well but I gave it a shot and enjoyed it.

I'm looking forward to season 2 of Under the Dome starting up on Monday.  It doesn't follow the book much and the characters are rather dumb, but I still enjoy it and at least it's not some jackball reality show.

Other shows I try to catch when they're on: Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, SNL, Supernatural, Dr. Who (Tom Baker's scarf for the win!), This Old House, Brooklyn Nine Nine, and the Millers (gotta watch GOB).

Got the urge while scrolling through Netflix to rewatch all the seasons of My Name Is Earl.  As a Kevin Smith fan .. became of a fan of Jason Lee, and Ethan Suplee.  That show cracks me up, and is great and low key before heading off to sleep. Just wish it was on HBO as I'd like to see more of Nadine Velazquez.  [-o<  I know this is Netflix, but not original content for them .. originally saw it when it was on standard TV cable.

I just watched the 1st episode of true detective. I'm going to pull a marathon and finish the entire season by the morning.

I am a few (3-4) episodes in.  Excellent so far. I'm really enjoying it.

I only have the handful of Dr. Who available on Netflix. Some great stuff there, but I wish I had more! gotta watch some more. I like Colin Baker more than most folks, I think.

This Old House circa 70's, 80's, 90's, etc.?  :pcgs: Rich Carthuey (sp?). I KNOW THE DAMN PLUMBER'S NAME.

Currently watching a Season Two of original Star Trek with my daughter. Awesome.

Extras (Ricky Gervais) — rewatching because I realized I needed to. Can't believe it's been 8 years or longer.

Been watching SOA with the old lady haha, been putting of this show for a long time, not bad. I can't decide if I hate or love the Ron Perlman charecter.

High Scool of the Dead - Anime with zombies and fan service. As a zombie fan it's a fun watch, but I feel dirty watching it. :?

I'm the same way. I'm about 7 or so episodes in. I'm liking it so far surprisingly. I loved playing the Lost and the Damned so it makes sense why I like it. But Ron Perlman and Jax both seem like kind of....cheesy characters. I don't know, it's weird. But I like the show nonetheless

Don't its a very fun series to watch. Unfortunately it is in that weird middle ground like attack on Titan where the first series blew through all the manga and we have to wait a year or more for there to be more content to animate. 

As for the HOD OVA that came out it sucks. Pass on it unless you find the movie for $5 or less. It doesn't add to the story it's filler content at its worst and doesn't even retain the fun or charim the series has.

Not sure how far you are into the first season but pm me when you finish id like to rehash the fun parts...
