General TV Discussion and Thread for Shows Without A Thread Thread - Page 404

Looking for some good shows to watch during Corona that aren't too heavy or too black to watch but aren't crap.

Can be both sit com & drama.

Need some light-hearted **** with all this corona crap.

Some of my favorite shows that fit under this category are
Parks & Rec
The Mandalorian
Community
The Good Wife
Entourage (when it was good)
The Marvelous Ms Maisel
Banshee (I guess this is subjective, but for me this is just a ridiculous amazing show)

Banshee was awesome. Based on the shows listed I think you'd really like The Boys on Amazon Prime and Watchmen on HBO. You'd probably like Dave on FX. It's only 3 episodes in.

Stay far, far away from The Leftovers.

I very very recently watched & loved S1 & S2 but pre corona (S1>>>S2 though which seems to be against popular opinion).

Am waiting until it all blows over until S3

. Loved (back then) how dark it was though.

@razor: Thanks, I already watched E1 of The Boys but forgot about it, restarting now.

Other suggestions welcome.

Already watched & loved Watchmen, forgot to add it on the list.

Might be a good time to fire up Curb Your Enthusiasm if you haven't.

Y'all gotta read the zerozerozero book. It's super easy read, not big, not dense.

That author has nuts the size of footballs. Same dude who did Gamorrah book and now lives in witness protection.

Couldn't agree more, it was very well done.

Joe exotic is an absolute legend. Tiger selfies are an Oklahoma dating app staple.

a lot of fun! if you're a star trek fan. if you're not a fan, then it probably sucks. i just started it. a big plot hole is that picard could just ask Q for help anytime he wants and boom! problem solved! lol

I liked season 1. Season 2 was a big step down. Doubt I watch season 3. If you are on Season 1 and don't like it, I'd give up.

Wow what's this? Westworld s1 is brilliant. S2 is still very good. S3 seems like a soft reboot, good first ep.

I stopped after S1, which I quite liked, because I repeatedly heard s2 was bad. This is the first overly positive review of s2 I've seen.
