The Wire. And Homeland.

 

[mn78psu83]

Deadwood.

 

[DaytonBuck]

Amazon Prime has some good stuff.

Bosch
Tin Star
Goliath

 

[DaytonBuck]

I recently re-watched Cheers and Frasier on Netflix. Both hold up, both 11 seasons. Lots of time killing.

 

[mjh218]

Started Goliath. Had issues with it. Im an attorney and it was not believable! Have seen Sopranos, The Wire and just about all of the classic HBO shows.

First 4 seasons of Ray Donovan were great / good.


This season .... not so much

Frasier - for me - is at the top for the combination of writing and acting.

Red Oaks
Catastrophe

 

[Langmuir]

Orphan Black.

I'm re-watching it for the 2nd time. Maybe the best ensemble cast ever. Better than Cheers IMO.

 

[royboy]

Mad Men

 

[NedFromYork]

Will and Grace

That reminds me, what was Frederick Crane's first word? "Norm."

Halt and Catch Fire, American Gods, Preacher.

That reminds me, what was Frederick Crane's first word? "Norm."

I remember that. It was before Frederick had spoken and Fraser was tasked with watching Frederick while Lillith did something else. So Fraser brought Frederick into to bar and spent the whole day there. Lillith came in and picked up Frederick and was scolding Fraser for subjecting Frederick to such an atmosphere. Right then Norm came in and said, as usual, "Evening everybody." And Frederick said "Norm!" And Lillith said, with emotion in her voice, "He said 'Mommy.'"

I recently re-watched those on Netflix too. They hold up well. I hadn't seen some of the Frasier episodes. That was a really good show. I didn't realize how good until I watched them all.

BTW, at the end of the series when Niles and Daphne had a child they named it David, after David Angell. You see his name at the end of some Cheers episodes and most of Fraser too. I don't know what he was...producer or something. But anyway, he was in one of the planes that flew into the Twin Towers on 9/11. He and his wife died that day.

The first episode that aired after they died...I think it was Season 9...at the end of it (or maybe it was the beginning) it says something like "Dedicated to the loving memory of our friends Lynn and David Angell."

Frasier - for me - is at the top for the combination of writing and acting.

Niles is much like Barney Fife was. The show would be dull and a failure without them.

The Wire, Homeland, Ray Donovan, Longmire, Deadwood, The Unit, Sopranos, Hung, The Deuce, Leverage

Somebody mentioned Red Oaks. I second that. Entourage is also awesome.

 

[sluggo72]

The Wire for sure, Homeland and Ray Donovan are good, but still not in the Wire class, which is top of the list.
I just started one on Netflix called Ozark(s?) with Jason Bateman, I find it pretty good.

 

[ericstratton-rushchairman]

The Wire, Homeland, Ray Donovan, Longmire, Deadwood, The Unit, Sopranos, Hung, The Deuce, Leverage

The Unit for sure...I felt it was grounded fairly well against reality. I was crushed it was cancelled after four seasons

 

[ftlpsu]

The Wire

Bloodline

Longmire

 

[Rollin Stone]

Just finish Mindhunter. Good I liked it. Interesting

The Man in the High Castle is excellent.
The Night Of and Goliath are both also very good.

I recently saw George Wendt in the musical Rock and Roll Man. He plays J Edgar Hoover. He is huge now physically but has a grand stage presence and a surprisingly good singing voice.

 

[PeetzPoolBoy]

Will and Grace

The originals were great. Has anyone seen the “new version”?

 

[heckmans]

Definitely Red Oaks from Amazon. 2 Seasons. 3rd and final starts very soon.
Also check out Stranger Things. 1 season with 2nd starting in a week.

 

[mjh218]

Thanks for the suggestions. Have seen and enjoyed Stranger Things, Man in High Castle and few others.

 

[RandyL]

The Honourable Woman 8-part series - as good as anything I've ever watched.

The Newsroom - 3 seasons
