Thread: TV Series / Shows

So I was thinking of doing a thread on the latest TV shows / series that you're watching, and recommendations that you have. I'm not usually one to watch TV shows (prefer to read & game instead) but since part of the gaming comes with a Prime Video subscription, why not, let's see what's going on.

First series is Jack Ryan, based on the famous novels by Tom Clancy.

Recommendations?

The Crown on Netflix is on my definite watch list.

Depends on what genres you enjoy, etc. for recommendations. I thought The Crown was really good, most of the Netflix series I've seen have been enjoyable to watch.

Bojack Horseman is a Good Show, but what I've seen of Netflix' original programming has been decidedly middling. And of course they cancel almost everything by 3 seasons, so why bother?

BTW I wasn't laughing at you liking The Crown. Watch the video, it'll make sense.

Another good Netflix show: Korean historical zombie thriller Kingdom.

No, no, I got it - I saw you linked a video so it made sense.

Any reviews on Man in the High Castle? That's next on my Prime Video list.

Godfather of Harlem on Amazon is pretty great.

How was it compared to The Walking Dead?

If you have HBO Max, I very very highly recommend Valley of Tears. Its an Israeli ministries about the Yom Kippur War set in the Golan Heights. It follows a bunch of soldiers through the first few days of the conflict. A really great story and extremely high production value. I was completely blown away by how good it was.

I haven't watched or read TWD. I hear it's bad after the first season of the show.

While the first season of Kingdom was more thrilling than the second, I found the latter a satisfactory conclusion to the arc (sequel-bait is teased at the end).

But when does the intro play?

With the exception of the first episode, I believe its the opener, so no infixed intros.
