Oh I like that Starbuck girl.Two shows that I haven't seen mentioned but are worth mentioning.
Homicide was the precursor to The Wire, same creators, same Baltimore, and maybe the first "prestige" TV show, where the reach and craft was akin to film. I remember taping every episode on VHS tapes. The finale crushed me.
Battlestar Galactica, the remake, not the campy Lorne Greene thing, is also really ambitious and memorable and worth the time.

2. The Americans
3. Breaking Bad
4. The Wire
5. Station Eleven

How about Ted Lasso? The coach with the 2nd highest EQ.Does anyone have good suggestions that aren’t shoot ‘em up series? I need something to watch with my wife. I can’t take any more Hallmark Christmas in July, Christmas in the fall, Christmas in the spring, Christmas in New England, etc.. or prairie lady making dishes a kindergartner could make.
If you like historical dramas, Turn is a great series (https://g.co/kgs/RksHmY). Like I mentioned above, I love Call the Midwife, but the numerous birthing scenes are a no-go for my husband.Does anyone have good suggestions that aren’t shoot ‘em up series? I need something to watch with my wife. I can’t take any more Hallmark Christmas in July, Christmas in the fall, Christmas in the spring, Christmas in New England, etc.. or prairie lady making dishes a kindergartner could make.
Mr Show! Great one.
Does Friday Night Lights really get better again after season two? I think I gave up on it in the middle of that one. season one was good.

I hear good things about Bridgerton.
Oh she's all over Bridgerton. That was consumed in a week.I hear good things about Bridgerton.
Clarkson's Farm. And, not a series, but My Octopus Teacher is a well done documentary. Credit to @HOCKEYGOD11 for the rec.Does anyone have good suggestions that aren’t shoot ‘em up series?

5. Marshal Jim Courtright (About 5 minutes of airtime but Billie Bob Thornton was marvelous) lol
Season 2 was really just a blip, probably responding to network pressure and they resorted to a contrived trope. The rest of the way it was a perfect show.How about Ted Lasso? The coach with the 2nd highest EQ.
I hear good things about Bridgerton.
I am not uncertain this is a great show....has anyone tried Billions?..
...the cast seems top notch...
...Damian Lewis, Maggie Siff and Paul Giamatti...

That's cool that you pick. In my house the man controls the "mote". She gets to control the thermostat. We were both happy with the agreement. LolDO NOT WATCH The woman in the damn window or whatever the hell its called. My wife wasted her pick on that shit.
I loved the Sopranos when it was going on, but I think it slowly grew a bit too enamored with itself as the seasons marched on. I might have had it on my list if not for how poorly and fan-service-y The Many Saints of Newark turned out, where that same critique became especially apparent, with all the minor characters becoming embarrassing caricatures. I also thought, and thought from the beginning, that the therapy mechanism was contrived. Lorraine Bracco was fine in the role, but it still seemed wildly implausible, and it was hard to not see it as a mechanism to get another female lead besides Edie Falco (who was great), and serve as a stand-in for the audience. That is, I understand why they did it and believe they did it for good reasons, but I never fully bought in, especially when stacked next to the day-to-day mob stuff.Fantastic list!
However, no Sopranos?
Gotta get extra sleep somehow.That's cool that you pick. In my house the man controls the "mote". She gets to control the thermostat. We were both happy with the agreement. Lol
Shame on you, that was pathetic 🤦🏿♂️Actually, years ago I watched a couple episodes of a show called Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The last episode was too violent for me.
