What TV show have you seen recently ? Episode one

Hannibal

I'm years late to this series, but it's pretty fantasitc. I'll probably finish the first season tonight. I prefer the portrayal of Will Graham in Manhunter to this series, but this has been a really solid series so far. I'm shocked how violent it is for major network TV from a number of years ago.

Hannibal is one of the most gorgeously shot shows ever. After I binged through the first two seasons, I have to say it got me into a weird headspace. The show does a great job at putting the viewer into Will's shoes.

I’m almost on season 3. It’s a well done show and Mads is great as Hannibal. It also surprised me how graphic the show is.

Moved in with my Sister recently and she got me watching "Good Girls" and I really enjoyed it, it's a lot of fun. Also started watching Ozark and like that as well.

Debris: first two episodes

I guess this show is the spiritual successor to Fringe, which I absolutely loved. It's a very interesting premise, and so far the characters are a bit too emotionally soft to be elite federal spies, but it's been pretty good so far.

Been watching superstore it's a pretty funny show and fills that Brooklyn 99 and big bang theory gap nicely.

I loved that show. It's light and hits on social issues really well in my opinion. Really helps if you've worked retail like that.

Bummed it's almost over (if it's not already?), but it had a nice run. Not sure I'd say it falls in line with Big Bang, maybe the earlier good seasons. Has more of an Office/Parks n Rec vibe to it in my opinion.

So far so good thanks for asking, it's my first time living in an apartment and while it's a nice complex there are bound to be some oddballs lol. I have to take my dog out about 4-5 times a day and of course she doesn't want to use any of the close lawns to relieve herself so we have to go to the one at the other end of the complex, she has me walking about 3-4 miles a day I otherwise wouldn't be walking so I guess I owe her lol.

Well the good news about this is they either recognized his unlikability or they just decided to turn him into an overarching dickhead because everybody else in the show pretty much hates him too. The supporting cast is where it's at, especially Garrett.

Yea it's surprised me I wasn't expecting much from it but it's consistently made us laugh and the characters are great too, I really like Glenn, Dina and Garrett.

I was kind of meaning it falls in with those shows as something light and easy to watch during dinner, we still got parks and rec and community to try too.

Yea I felt the same with Jake peralta and Sheldon at first too but I grew to like them and the dynamics with the supporting cast, Jonah gets a lot of crap too and he grows to be a bit more likeable.

Parks and Rec is a great show that really takes off in season 3. First two season (especially season one) try to be The Office too much. Just a warning on that.

Community on the other hand is a show that you're gonna want to pay attention to, and it helps to know going into it the entire premise is referential humor that is explained by one of the characters throughout. I personally LOVE it.

Wife and I have been watching Seal Team and we both enjoy it. She likes it for the home front drama I like it for its military recruiting like displays of awesome weaponry and bad assery.

Not a fan of Wandavision. Too hokey for me in her little dream world.

Orphan Black season 1 - I forgot how good Maslaney is in this show. First time rewatching it and was really enjoyable still.
