I’m on a Seinfeld kick. It’s my show I just keep coming back to

I’m working through Star Trek, watched TNG and DS9 and on Voyager now. I’ve always been aware of it but somehow never realized how good it is! Which is nice because now I feel like I discovered a treasure trove, there are so many shows and movies.

I've really been digging this one. I was hoping they'd show what's going on outside, but I've been really pleasantly surprised otherwise. And of course it's way way too tempting to spoil it by looking up the books' synopses.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I’ve literally just started watching this tonight. Seems interesting so far, curious to see what they do with it.

[–] DrYes 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just caught up to episode 8 and no more binging for me :(

Futurama! I'm not sure how the new season will be, but I know the old stuff is good.

[–] tallwookie 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

they're bringing futurama back from the dead? again?

[–] SirSnufflelump 7 points 1 year ago

Sure are. Mixed feelings about it, I think one of the reasons it's so good is because they didn't have a chance to milk it to death like the Simpsons

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah I didn’t know that either wtf. They really shouldn’t do that. The final final final ep was SO good.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've never actually watched futurama. I've seen it a few times at my friends house but never payed it much attention

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

First 4 seasons before the initial cancelation are gold.

I've yet to finish all the ones that came after the cancelation but there's definitely good stuff there too.

Just watched Star Trek The Next Generation for the first time! Loved most of it...though it has some middling and really bad moments. About to watch all the TNG movies next!

[–] aragon 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not sure if you have watched DS9. It is just as good as TNG if not better.

Mr. Robot. I didn't realize that they had added two more seasons since I last watched it. It's been a great watch with all the big internet shifts lately.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Reaching Ted Lasso.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (5 children)

How come nobody ever told me Battlestar Galactica was so good? I’m on season 2. I love the stories I really love the casting choices (where did they find the actress for Starbuck she’s perfect) but one thing I could do without is the cinematography. Woof

One of my all time favorite shows. Enjoy!

Just finished Nathan for You, I don't know how I never watched it before, it's exactly my type of comedy.

Twin Peaks, watching it for the first time, great atmosphere

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Fucking hell, you lucky bastard. I'd love to watch Twin Peaks for the first time again. So good.

Taskmaster. I don't think any other show can make me legitimately laugh out loud so much

Taskmaster. It's so stupid but I crack up every episode.

[–] audge 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Modern Family!

I'm already scared for my life once I finish it. The post-show depression will definitely hit a little harder this time.

Just finished The Last Kingdom. I recommend Black Sails, Turn: Washington's Spies and The Expanse.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Expanse may be the best show I've ever seen. Might be time for a 3rd rewatch.

I was really enjoying The Last Kingdom, but just kind of stopped... Don't even remember why.

[–] Bewilderbeast 3 points 1 year ago

The Expanse is probably my favorite; certainly one of my top 5. Like every fan, I recommend reading the books. They moved their subreddit to Mastodon.

TLK can get a little repetitive and characters make obviousy bad decisions, but when you get to the end, the story comes together as a whole. Overall, its a good show.

I'm about halfway through the first season of Fargo and I am really mad at myself that I waited this long to check it out. Great so far

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Currently binging Justified in preparation for the new one. I haven't fully rewatched it since it first aired, and I'd forgotten just how awesome it is. I feel like it's a show that got lots of critical praise but never really the viewership it deserved and has been somewhat forgotten, which is sad because it's fantastic. So many awesome characters and so much wonderful writing.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

The Bear. Saw it in one sitting. It's really really great.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (5 children)

I've just started watching Neon Genesis: Evangelion. 3 episodes in and I'm pretty confused why this is so highly regarded... I'll watch a little more but if the quality continues like this I'll just stop.

Just finished season 1 of slow horses. It’s solid and very British. I had to look up what the hell a y front was.

Ghosts (UK), highly enjoyable easy watch.

[–] werehippy 4 points 1 year ago

The Great on Hulu is shockingly entertaining. My wife started watching it because she enjoys that mildly anachronistic and gorgeous/well produced trend lately and it sucked me in way more than I'd have expected.

[–] icybro 4 points 1 year ago

Willow, just removed from Disney+, is actually a lot of fun

I just finished a rewatch of Jericho. It's the story of a small Kansas town trying to survive after the United States is nuked. It's post 9/11

"From" on MGM+. I'm not subscribed, but they have the first season on Amazon. It reminds me a lot of "Lost" with the mystery and trickling answers.

Just finishing up Stargate: Universe. What a trip!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've been rewatching and binging Whose Line Is It Anyway (the U.S. version). I forgot what a masterpiece this show was. It's an all time classic forsure!

Anyone else love this show or have any others they'd recommend?
