No, I've never watched it so that's two of us mateAm I the only one who hasn’t watched breaking bad?
Watched the lot years agoUp to Season 3 of Smallville. It's super. Idiotic but super.
Enjoyed it
Not sure if your into crime or police seriesNeed something new to watch. I think I have watched everything worth seeing.
Started into my back up stuff last night and decided it all looked crap.
Endeavour, Lucky Hank, Madam Secretary, The Company you keep, The Patient, Joe Pickett.
Edit. Just saw that The Crowded Room has finished. That's next on the list.
But the wire and Bosch are fantastic series.

The writer says she kept half of what actually happened to the poor saps out of the show in respect for the families.Yes agreed.
I watched a crime documentary on it quite recently too.
Very disturbing as you say.

I enjoyed Madam Secretary and look forward to season 2. Madam Secretary is a mix of drama (mostly) and comedy; the plot is somewhat unbelievable; but the actors are great and the characters they portray are memorable.Need something new to watch. I think I have watched everything worth seeing.

Madam Secretary: 7/10.

If you haven't watched it yet, I'd recommend Patriot. It's a dark comedy about an assassin hired by the US government and boasts some hilarious scenes. It's mostly drama though - and over time, the main character grows on you and you begin to empathize with the terrible life he's been forced into.
The humor in Patriot is something you'll either love or hate. Here's two examples:
In this first clip, listen to the made up technical jargon. It's hilarious. Our protagonist - Lakeman - has recently been hired by this company as an undercover sales agent and he's got to catch up with the lingo. Lakeman's expression at the conclusion of the speech is priceless.
In this second clip, Lakeman's boss, Leslie Claret, has been so upset by goings-ons that he's started snorting cocaine. Here, Leslie is attending a session to help deal with his addiction.
Patriot: 9.5/10

Been watching Station Eleven. I read 'Sea of Tranquility' earlier this year by the same author and really liked that so decided I'd take the plunge with this.
Post-apocalyptic show after a flu virus wipes out a shitload of the world population (written before the Covid pandemic, though).
5 episodes watched. Its weird and fragmented. Slow to start but I really like it.
