If you can get over the title and the whole teen vampire thing, Angel and Buffy the vampire slayer are both very good. You really see where Joss Whedon honed his directing talent for firefly. (I was pretty hesitant on starting these, stuck with them, now I've finished both and I want more :P)

And for those fans of Firefly, a lot of the cast members had minor roles on Buffy/Angel at some point :p.

Can't remember if I've posted in this thread before, but here is a list of shows I liked (Ignoring really common shows that I'm certain have been posted before e.g. HIMYM)

- Psych (like the mentalist, but full of comedy, great leading duo dynamic)
- Chuck (Nice mix of comedy, drama and action)
- Arrow (Only seen the first season, very nicely done for a superhero show)
- Whitecollar (Think mentalist, different enough to watch without feeling deja vu and just as good)
- Futurama!?!
- Battlestar Galactica (Been through a lot of sci-fi stuff, this was really well done, good overarching story plots, not overly predictable)

So I'm two episodes into Manhattan and it's amazing. It is a very well crafted character drama.

series that i enjoyed and enjoying so far in the last months :

• The Sopranos (currently watching ..)
• Penny Dreadful (Horror , Drama) ---> photography is amazing , plot is okish
• Rectify (Drama) ----> intense , introspective
• Fargo (Drama , Thriller) ---> in my opinion one of the best quality tv series of this year.
• The Fall ( Thriller ) --> well , not too much intriguing but watchable.
• The Strain (Horror) ---> not bad at all

Rectify has to be one of the best tv shows I've seen when it comes to building and holding tension.

true detectives.  mad cast,  great show
Yes, I know from whence I came! Discontented as a flame, Upon myself I live and glow. All I grasp like lightning flashes, All I leave behind is ashes
Flame I am - that much I know!

The first 2 seasons of BSG (new series) are amazing, really good stuff. Sadly it get's worse after that.

Under the Dome and Elementary.


A greek TV station started showing both, and it got me hooked.

The first one is about a village that it gets surrounded by a big dome, and the second one is the American version of Sherlock Holmes.

Pretty dope shows, I vouch for both.

I only watch cartoons and animated stuff  :oops:

anyways, secret tip: Wakfu
great story, great animation, good voice acting and great fights, even the villains actually make sense. It´s still only available in french (or german but that one sucks), but they successfully founded an english dub on kickstarter, which they´re currently working on.

here a short scene, barely a spoiler cause it´s in the first episode (2 seasons in total); fight starts at 2:15

It's not too bad.

My suggestion:
House of Cards

Anyone have any opinions on Boardwalk Empire? Wondering if it's worth watching.

Under the dome is a great book , watched first episodes and preferred to remember the story as it was in my mind .)

I loved the first season. Madds Mikkelsen does a great job playing Hannibal. I wasn't sure what to expect but it developed very nicely over the series. I'm going to start the second one once I finish with Breaking Bad.

I've been enjoying Orange is the New Black a bit as well for something more light. The other one I've been tempted to try is American Horror Story.

Basically I'm watching all the stuff that Netflix shoves in my face  :)

If you have not seen it the documentary Knuckle it is great. Follows two Irish Gypsy families that have a hilarious feud and bareknuckle box all the time.
