Leftovers Season 2 is fantastic. It totally resets from the first season and fixes a lot of the flaws.
My favorite episode out of left field is the secret agent one from the 2nd season.
The third season is really good and I loved how the series ended.

If you want a weird show, Twins Peaks: The Return is it.
One of the oddest shows I have ever watched.

I have watched this summer and agree that all were good: The Ranch, Ozarks, & Friends from College.

I am thinking about starting Sons of Anarchy next. Any other suggestions besides the ones already mentioned? I started Bloodline and Breaking Bad and did not like either of them. Thought about House of Cards or Twin Peaks also.

Excited for the new season of Narcos in Sept as well.

Sons is great. Some of my other all time faves are Mad Men, Friday Night Lights and The West Wing.

I did not like Breaking Bad until about 4 or 5 episodes in. Hope you didn't give up too soon.

I thought Sons quickly faded in the second season. I kept watching after being told how great the show was. I didn't think it grew much.

I'm 3.5 episodes into Stranger Things. I don't get the appeal so far. I mean it's a well made show but I'm kind of bored with it. Does it get better?

Wife and I just caught up on Elementary and got through this season's progress of Suits.

Also, I just started going back through The Blacklist again. James Spader is excellent. That role was tailor-made for him.

S2 of Daredevil I struggled to finish.

Jessica Jones S1 was awesome.

I stared Luke Cage and only made it 2 episodes. Got busy and never went back. Maybe I will this fall/winter.

It's hard for me to see Jason Bateman and not want to go rewatch Arrested Development immediately.

Over the winter/spring I finished all 10 seasons of Stargate SG1 and the 5 seasons of Stargate Atlantis. I recommend both for any Sci-Fi fan, especially those that watched the original movie from 1996(?).

If you plan on watching both, look online on the "when to watch" as starting around season 8 of SG1 the two shows overlap and have some cross overs.

I started watching Stargate SGU, got through half of the first season and so far just can't finish it. Not nearly as good, its like soap opera with a sci fi theme.

Watched The Flash, all of the seasons just recently. Not bad at all.

Watching Supergirl now (I know...just bored) and so far it's not bad either, if you can get over the fact that she is basically Superman with female emotions.

Probably will watch Arrow next...I know those 3 (Arrow, Flash, Supergirl) have many cross overs and should be watched in some sort of order too, I just didn't care about them that much to do it.

I probably will go back to Stargate SGU next though, just to have the Stargate saga complete (watched all 3 movies too, the last 2 were straight to DVD and are to be watched after season 10 of SG1).


I am always watching Marvels Agents of Shield, may eventually watch Luke Cage, Defenders, Jessica Jones, etc.

Another good series, at least for the first couple seasons, was The 100.
