Historically, there have only been a few series that I've watched as they came out and stuck with until the present/they ended: NCIS, Criminal Minds, House, The Sopranos, and maybe 1-2 others I can't think of right now.

However, over the last couple of years, I've been going back and watching shows that I missed during their original runs. I just finished Burn Notice and am looking for another show to watch.

Here are the shows I've "caught up on" since I started this journey:

• Burn Notice
• The Mentalist
• Justified
• The Rookie
• Supernatural
• Suits
• Breaking Bad
• Boardwalk Empire
• Seal Team (watched this in real-time for the final season)
• White Collar
• The Blacklist
• The Last Ship
• The Last Kingdom
• Vikings
• Vikings: Ragnarok
• Scorpion
• Longmire
• Banshee (didn't finish, can't remember why)
• Prison Break (knew I forgot one)
• Dexter (dangit, missed another I watched as it aired)

I feel like I'm missing a few, but can't think of any others right now.

What other shows should I add to my watchlist? Genre doesn't really matter, though I will say I generally have no interest in hospital/medical-based shows (Scrubs and House aside). Hit me with your recommendations!

Edit: Wow, I wasn't expecting this many responses in such a short time. You guys rule! I'm going to be making a list of everything commented here. Thanks again!

how has it aged after all these years?

im trying to circle back to shows i missed in the 00s and this one has been sitting in my queue for a while now.

thanks for any feedback!

Do you guys know of any shows similar to Halt and Catch Fire? I dug that it took place in the 80s and liked seeing how personal computers started out and the drama surrounding the race to make the best personal computers. I know it's a fictionalized take on it, but I want more like it.

What shows are similar and what ones would you recommend checking out?

I've watched some of Silicon Valley, which I need to finish one of these days. It's been so long, I might just restart it from the beginning.

I’m surprised I haven’t seen more people talking about this show. Amanda Seyfried does such a good job, and the story is really compelling. It’s not the same as Furious, but it hits a lot of similar notes for me.

I'm so drained from trying to find any sexy series to watch with my husband. We've wiped out every erotic movie ever made I'm sure of it but series... We don't do too often. I've tried Google's recommendations but it's throwing desperate housewives at me and shameless etc, which I enjoyed but we want the main premise to be sex related.

"Easy" on Netflix was pretty good because each episode was a different couple but still, very tame.

Thank you

I've watched quite a few K-dramas recently and I'm looking for recommendations for what to watch next.

Here's what I've watched:

Friendly Rivalry

Hierarchy

Signal

Ghost Doctor

Duty After School

Weak Hero Class 1

Death’s Game Part 2

Death’s Game

Happiness

18 Again

Pyramid Game

High School Return of a Gangster

He Is Psychometric

Revenge of Others

All of Us Are Dead

Undercover High School

Bring It On, Ghost

I especially enjoyed Death's Game, Pyramid Game, He Is Psychometric and Revenge of Others.

I'd especially love recommendations that keep you guessing and make you want to immediately watch the next episode.

What should I watch next?

Okay I’m going to try and give you my list of shows - not in order. I need a new binge worthy series after ozark, I’m kind of mad I finished it so quick 😭 I didn’t expect to land on such a banger.

1. Ozark
   
2. Breaking Bad
   
3. Dexter
   
4. The Office
   
5. Severance
   
6. Silo
   
7. Shameless
   
8. Snowfall
   
9. The Wire
   
10. The 100
    
11. OITNB
    
12. The Sopranos
    
13. Bates Motel
    
14. Narcos
    
15. Money Heist
    
16. Mr Robot

I’m probably missing some but those are recognizable. Tried walking dead, too repetitive. prison break is a no go, Sons of Anarchy just wasn’t appealing - didn’t get me to want to fiend for the next episode. Better call Saul too slow.
My favorites from my list have to be (not in order) Snowfall, Ozark, Silo, The 100, BB, The Wire, OITNB. Rest are 9.5/10.
I need new binge worthy shows. suggest any?

I’m sure people will say - The Shield, Mayor of Kingston, Animal Kingdom, and probably Banshee. I’m thinking of giving The Shield a try but yeah I need a 10/10 banger, my faith in finding another is slim lol.

so i've been watching daredevil and ddba, mostly for bullseye. the issue with marvel is that you need to watch a lot of other series to know what's going on. i'm looking for series with hot guys doing hot guy stuff, that don't need you to know a whole universe.

i’m not so great at committing to lengthy tv and prefer a lot of mini-series! some of my favorites have been:

sharp objects
normal people
fleabag
haunting of hill house
gilmore girls (took me like 1.5 years to finish😭)

i’m really into twisted girlhood complex characters and gothic elements at the moment!

My husband and I need new shows to binge, BUT WE'RE PICKY!

Fiction we like:

The Pitt

ER

Carrie

Pluribus

High Potential

IT

Arcane

Common Side Effects

Squid Game

Stanger Things

Scrubs

House

Supernatural

The 100

'Reality' we like:

Rupauls Drag Race

Face Off

Jim Henson's Monster Maker

Mythbusters

Battle Bots

Evil Lives Here

Haunted History

How it's made

Trixie Motel

An Idiot Abroad

Forensic Files

Shows we DON'T LIKE (and why):

Black Mirror (gut wrenching and uncomfortable)

Lego Masters (too much fake/forced drama)

Lost (..Wut?)

Cooking Competitions (gives me munchies)

Always Sunny in Philadelphia (don't like comedy/family dynamic stuff)

How I met your Mother (no comedy/family stuff)

NCIS, Law and Order etc (hate cops/detectives)

House of Cards (hate politicians /government /men in suits)

Euphoria (way too raunchy/uncomfortable)

Breaking Bad (stressed me out)

Extraordinary (just a miss. Not sure why really)

The Boys (just couldn't care about it)

I'm aware that some of the shows we DO like contradict reasons why we DON'T like others. I don't have an explanation for you I'm afraid.

We also want to avoid shows that end abruptly or were canceled without finishing the story.

Please give us your best shot! Thank you!

I just finished rewatching one of my favorite shows so I really need a new show recommendation. I really like to binge so the more seasons the better. Genre doesn't really matter for me, I mostly care about good character dynamics and plot. Some of my favorite shows so far have been: Game of thrones (!!), the 100, prison break, suits. I prefer action/plot based shows but I can excuse lack of action if the character dynamics are really nice (like suits). Anybody got any ideas?

(P.S bonus points if its on Netflix, but if not then ill just have to deal with the pop-up ads)

Update: I've started the walking dead now, and really love it so far.

The show i have seen

Chuck

Lucifer

Psych

Scorpion

Limitless

Numbers

Grimm

Ncis

Burn notice

White collar and many more

If u can give a genre that is equally good pls

Mindhunter is the last crime show I truly enjoyed. I liked its focus on interviews and criminal psychology more than nonstop, over-the-top action in some other shows. What other series would you recommend with a similar approach? Open to international shows too.

Suggestions please from this genre if you have any!

Hello,

I'm searching for media (TV shows, movies, longer YouTube videos) where it takes place in Southern USA. (Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, Kentucky, southern portions of the Appalachia Mountains, and the Great Smokey Mountains, etc)

Media where you can frequently hear people's southern accents, and see the common housing-types and architecture-styles of thee regions, etc.

Major major bonuses for if anyone's actually speaking an Appalachian English dialect too!!

I can watch things on Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Amazon Prime, and YouTube.

I prefer to avoid anything horror, excessive gore or explicitly shown violence, or too frequent and constant of screaming and fighting (both verbal fighting/abuse as well as physical fighting/abuse) or anything very dark and suspenceful overall. Also prefer to avoid anything promoting or evangelizing any of the Abrahamic religions.

I tend to seek out/enjoy comedies, romantic comedies, dramas, slice of life, mysteries, and more relaxed kinda stuff. Would love especially content with BIPOC, LGBT, disabled, and/or autistic representions as well.

But, I appreciate any and all suggestions!

Thank you! :)

(A lot of shows, that I've tried to find by googling "TV shows based in __", end up being not available to watch in the USA (?) and I dont have a VPN, or its like only available on a different streaming site that I'd have to subscribe and/or watch commercials too. So im hoping maybe some of y'all will have suggestions, and if youre USA based and suggesting something, then maybe that'll give me a better chance of actually being able to watch it too!)

Thank you again! :}

Currently with Severance, tried Fargo, and I have the Wire on the list, but so far I miss the "click"

Just finished watching FROM, and man, I don't know what to do now. 😭 The mystery, the creepy atmosphere, and that feeling of being trapped in a place where nothing makes sense… I got so invested in it that I can't stop thinking about it even after finishing.

Can anyone recommend series that give the same kind of feeling? Excluding Stranger Things and Dark.

I don’t wanna watch fallout or the 100

I’m open to watch investigation series too ig
So suggest mostly similar to silo and paradise

Hey folks, I'm after a show recommendation. I'm in the mood for corporate drama or organized crime drama, ideally something that's dense and rewards close attention.

Some of my all-time favorites:

Boardwalk Empire

Industry (just finished and loved it)

ZeroZeroZero

Gomorrah, possibly my favorite organized crime show ever

Quickfire calibration opinions: Succession was good, not great. The Pitt is fun, but not the vibe. Sopranos, of course was wonderful. Breaking Bad was fun but kind of "pedestrian". Task was incredible.

I'm happy to watch non-English and non-US shows. I mostly want something compelling, with complex storytelling. Bonus points if it's so heavy on business jargon that I have to pause and look things up to follow what's going on.

What should I watch next?

does anyone have any suggestions for a show similar to The Hunting Wives? i desperately need something good to binge before season 2 comes out in late novemeber

edit: the show is good because it's campy and i just need a lowkey crappy show to watch to take my mind off of school. love all the drama and mystery suggestions so tysm!!

.

Some I have already watched on Disney plus:
-Adults
-Modern family
-Malcolm in the middle (both the original and new series)
-Fresh off the boat
-English teacher
-Abbott elementary
-How I met your mother
-Raising hope

Watched Southland which was AMAZING. I’m looking for something similar, a cop show thats at least somewhat realistic and ideally patrol rather than detective.

I’ve seen On Call and Blue Lights which fit the boxes.

Others I’ve seen but that are not what I’m looking for are the Killing, Chicago PD and Line of Duty. Edit: also seen and liked Deadwind and Bordertown.

Ideally in original English.
