I see people recommending Limitless but I would say Lucifer, it's way more entertaining and picks off immediately rather than having episode 2-5 be an incredibly formulatic bore. VagueRant posted:Oh and I've tried Hannibal already. Not Sons of Anarchy though...I know people hate it and the creator around here but is the early stuff good enough to watch? Season 1 is legitimately good, 2 is ok and everything else is hot steaming garbage. It's not the fun kind of bad like say Dexter, it's the boring kind.

Spatula City posted:Agents of SHIELD is watchable now. unfortunately, Arrow and The Flash have gone to poo poo. maybe I should start watching Supergirl? I need dumb but okay superhero shows to watch. 1. I have really enjoyed Supergirl so far. Watch the pilot; if you really hate it I probably wouldn't bother with the series. If you like it I would definitely watch more as the series has continued to improve throughout the year. It has been much better than this seasons flash/Arrow. 2. Magicians you either love or hate. I read the series but don't really care about any changes from the books. I've loved the show so far but it is not much different from the first 3 episodes. you either like it or you dont. 3. Limitless. Lucifer. I also enjoy Elementary, thats on season 4 already though.

Except Kurt Sutter wasn't ever allowed near Justified, so it's not full of unmitigated machismo garbage.

Archvillain of the Season is the standard Buffy model, which predates The Shield.

Sutter actually basically hated the show because they committed the sin of listening to input from the actors. Pretty much right after this came out, the crew made it a point in like every interview to go "Oh yeah, that was awesome, wasn't it? (actor) came up with it"

Holy poo poo, I have somehow not realised that Jim Beaver is the guy from Supernatural who is the same guy from Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul who is the same guy from Justified AND apparently Deadwood too? That dude is a chameleon...of portly old grizzled southerners. Anyway Rectify (which I'd not heard of) is first on the list as per my promise*. And I'll deffo check out Limitless too - I didn't know there was positive buzz for that one. *I tried The Killing. Also Terriers.

I think I'm the one goon that didn't like Justified and hatewatched basically all of it because of great moments like that. What I liked even more is when the bad guys used that bullet to kill someone and Raylan had to sit in an office and explain to a DA why he threw a bullet at a guy. Were the gasoline spray and the tablecloth pull moments also Olyphant's doing?

FYI Amazon Prime has the whole series up for streaming. The first season is the only questionable one, the rest are amazing back to front.

Limitless the TV show is so far beyond what I imagined it would be. I mean the movie was....fine. It was absolutely 100% a movie that was available to watch, that is about the most praise I have for it. It's not bad, it's not great, it exists. The show took an alright premise and really ran with it. The art direction is superb, the way they integrate his "NZT brain" or even his normal stoner brain into the visuals of the show so you can see the things his brain is churning through. All the actors are really good, even the lame FBI babysitter characters get fleshed out and you start to like them more and more. It's just so fun, I don't think anybody expected the show based on a flash in the pan Bradley Cooper movie to be their favourite show of the season.

If I didn't like the movie Fargo, and I don't like slow burn type shows (Better Call Saul walks a fiiiiiine line with me) - would I like the Fargo TV show? Peeps here seem to love it, but those are a lot of red flags. EDIT: v Darn.

Just watch episode 1 of Fargo and decide after that. It's probably the best TV pilot in recent memory. I never liked the movie.

Movie fargo is way better than the show, but the show is also excellent. I still don't get the aliens in season 2 but I don't think I want to know.
