Arrow and Archer, but I have to watch them without the gf. She says they are stupid, then goes to OnDemand Pretty Little Liars!

Okay, first of all your gf is dumb. You can tell her that the internet said that. Second, Game of Thrones and The Blacklist are sooo good. I love them both. Now that Breaking Bad is over, GoT is actually my favorite show.

You have some good choices, too!

Also, the first season of homeland is great, but the second season isn't.

I'm almost through the second season. I think there was a dropoff in quality, but, not a dramatic one. Parts of it are irksome, but overall some pretty interesting stuff.

I feel a bit like when Season 2 of TWD hit and everyone hated the year on the farm. I didn't think it was so bad.

Since nobody else has mentioned "Suits" since I did, let me reiterate that it is, in my opinion, the best show on TV right now. Seriously, give it a chance. I think the first season or two are on Netflix.

And now OSC has recommended Suits as the best show on TV in his latest column.

I love Suits. It gets a little silly sometimes, but always entertaining.

Tor.com has a nice discussion going for True Detective so I just watched the first episode. Very interesting. They say it gets even better around episode four so I can't wait to see the rest.

The Americans is starting up again.

It's about soviet spies who are living a disguise as a married american family. They have kids as part of their cover. And with the Reagan era starting, their life begins to get riskier and an FBI agent inexplicably moves across the street. Not in contention for best show, but its really fun and well acted.

Cowboy Bebop.
I just tried to "Like" your Cowboy Bebop post and I was confused for longer than I'd like to admit on why I couldn't.
I've done that.....recently....

I started watching that when it came out and discovered that I have a weak stomach for rape scenes. So I stopped watching it. Not a condemnation or anything, it was almost surprising to me since I've watch plenty of other types of violence in media without much of a problem. Apparently that one hit a dischord with me.

I recently finished True Detective and it was great. Everyone here should watch it immediately.

Also, The Following is pretty solid, as is Bates Motel. Believe seems good so far, but there are only two episodes so it's tough to say.

As usual, the Blacklist is proving to be an emotional roller coaster. This week's episode was brilliant and almost had me in tears at the end. Holy crap, I love that show.

I watched all ten episodes of Orphan Black over the course of three days and was BLOWN AWAY with how much I am still into it. The last two episodes were a little shaky, but that show is a whirlwind of amazingness. My favorite new drama show in recent memory. I would say if episode 2 doesn't hook you in, I don't know who you are.

lots of love [Cool] LT

Just discovered Ozark on Netflix and The Expanse on Amazon. Both are excellent IMO. I also watched Counterpart and really enjoyed that first season as well.
