The Best Series You Never Watched

Yeah the last two episodes of Breaking Bad are just case studies in absolute awesomeness.

 

I've watched through Firefly and Serenity twice (some when it originally aired on TV, and later on DVD and streaming). I really wish that show would have either not been canceled or would have been brought back. The networks never gave it a time slot that it had a chance in.

Now that you've finished Breaking Bad, you should check out Better Call Saul. It's the same world, and so it still *kind of* feels like Breaking Bad, but focused on Saul and Mike, instead. Good show that has really grown on me, especially now in the second season.

 

Yeah my buddy told me about Spartacus and then he was like "But you can't watch it". LOL! The same goes for Game of Thrones and House of Cards. I tried to watch it but there was a scene on there that was just so gratuitous that I turned it off and will never watch it again. I'm a political junkie and the subject matter is right up my alley but man it was just way too over the top from a sexual standpoint.

 

I've never seen that show but what do you mean about the cinematography? Like it was cheesy or something? That's the reason I can't hardly watch Dr. Who, even though I would really like to be able to enjoy it, because those BBC shows have this campy nature to me or something. I can't really put my finger on it.

 

Yeah I've seen some of the Eccleston Dr. Who and it's actually really awesome stories but the BBC production stuff is just hard for me to deal with. Since you're an X-Files fan you would probably really like it.

 

Northern Exposure was a great show! nice call

 

I'm not averse to sexual plotlines, but most of these shows seem to throw it on in the most in your face way, when I'd actually rather they show the numerous storylines available instead of 3 minutes of soft porn.

Game of Thrones ticks me off, because there's so much they could be doing from the books.

Spartacus...I had to ban that from my sailors because I walked in on another sex scene and they had the lights off and door shut. All I heard from the passageway was grunting and moaning....walked in and see nakedness and a guy pelvic thrusting while carrying on some dialog with his wife.

 

When I read that I thought you were saying that you caught two of YOUR sailors doing that while watching Spartacus. LOL!!!

 

No, That would have sucked. They were 2 of my better sailors. I only came close to catching that once and we ended up putting that one out later on for that same thing. (wasn't a very smart sailor)

 

Yes that DEFINITELY would have sucked! LOL!

 

Check out (hell on wheels) netflix, action packed in the 1860s, this is a binge watcher and season 5 starts saturday may 28.....

 

I've heard the first season of that show is really bad but a lot of people say it found its stride a little later and became required viewing. I've still never watched it though. I'm a die hard fan of The Office though.

 

For those that are too young, or just missed them the first time around, there's a fairly new network called H&I. Heroes and Icons. They show older action series' like "Hill Street Blues", "Mannix", "Combat" and "NYPD Blue" (oddly, this show wasn't censored when it was on network TV but now it is. I guess we're all too "sensitive" now.Even if you don't like the shows, it's cool to see young actors who are household names now! A couple weeks ago, I saw an episode of "Mannix" that had a safecracker in it that was played by a VERY young Martin Sheen.
