Couldn't get past the second episode of season 1. Should i try again and persevere?
I know i've seen absolutely nothing, but i didn't like the main actor play (well, maybe he dies soon in the series, i don't know).
Did you go through the same process? Have you been hooked from the start? Sometimes series are like that, you're unsure in the few first episodes but everything blows out of proportion if you keep watching and you're in for a nice ride.
I think you should keep going, it takes a little bit to pick up, but my friends and I keep describing it as a lighter Breaking Bad, but about money laundering. I liked it a lot.
I need to get started on Money Heist
all my friends urge me to watch it, even my parents, now that's sad.I think you should keep going, it takes a little bit to pick up, but my friends and I keep describing it as a lighter Breaking Bad, but about money laundering. I liked it a lot.
I need to get started on Money Heist
Ok i'll give it another try, i just want to love it and probably pulled the plug too soon. It's funny that you mentionned Breaking Bad because when i started Ozark, i just finished the last season of Better Call Saul, where a lot of Cartel-related things happened. It's possible that i had enough of this thematic for a while. But usually this is my cup of tea.
I recommend Money Heist, at least the first season (started to get bored at season 3, didn't like the fourth one at all). It becomes redundant after a while, but when you're new to it it's quite entertaining.
The Man in the High Castle, seasons 1 & 2. Yes...you have to put your ''hun where are they going with this CAP'' a few times, but the production values are stunning. Seasons 3 & 4 are sloppy and predictable in a disjointed way.

Yellowstone just wrapped up its third season.This is one of the shows that fly under the radar because it is not on a major network. If you like the Godfather movies, this is like godfather lite.
There's a patriarchal father (Kevin Costner) who runs the largest ranch in the western U.S. He constantly has to fight off people and groups who want to take his land away from him. His oldest son, and presumed heir, dies early in the series. His next oldest son is a screw-up Fredo like character. His daughter is an alcoholic finance wiz. The youngest son is a war hero who wants nothing to do with the family business. But of course he gets drawn into the family business when his father's life is at stake. There are enough murders, traitors, back stabbers, gun fights, fist fights, explosions, and sizzling sex scenes to keep your interest. I do recommend.

Shark Tank - I can't get enough. Love seeing the ideas, and learn the nature of entrepreneurship.
The Punisher with Jon Bernthal on Netflix. Very entertained. I'm a guy who grew up with lots of action movies, so I appreciate good action scenes with professional and realistic choreography on top of insane camera work. If you have seen Netflix's Dare Devil, its the same style.

Great cliffhanger ending to Season 3.

***LEFT ME WANTING MORE***
I go long periods of time without watching anything and then will find a series to binge watch.
I really got into Better Call Saul and ended up watching Breaking Bad, which I never thought was a show I would like. I was soooo wrong. I was really bummed when I finished it. At least there will be Better Call Saul to look forward to.
Maybe a chick series but I really like This is us.
The Deuce!!!! I was sad when I finished it. Love the cast of characters. The subject matter is really cool, considering my own experience as a sex worker. If you have not already seen it, you have to!
Mad Men of course.
The big bang theory
Glow
Just binged watched The handmaid's tale, now reading the book.
Right now I am watching The wire
Probably try Entourage
Most of these were highly recommended by a friend. He has really good suggestions.
Oh, House MD was also great.

I have been watching on HBO “Lovecraft County” 9 pm Sundays.
www.hbo.com
They are up to Episode 3.
“Based on Matt Ruff's novel of the same name, Lovecraft Country follows Atticus Freeman (Jonathan Majors) as he meets up with his friend Letitia (Jurnee Smollett) and his uncle George (Courtney B. Vance) to embark on a road trip across 1950s Jim Crow America in search of his missing father (Michael Kenneth Williams). This begins a struggle to survive and overcome both the racist terrors of white America and the terrifying monsters that could be ripped from a Lovecraft paperback....”

***DO YOU BELIEVE IN MONSTERS***
Wow! You picked alot of good series to binge watch. I have binged watched so many shows that I would not have without the COVID shutdown. The Deuce and the Wire were by the same creative team and may of the characters were based on real people.
The Deuce really captured the way 42nd Street used to be in NYC. I don't know if you saw the little behind the scenes after each of the episodes, but they discussed the real life stories behind the episodes. Oh and I will never look at potato soup the same way ever again. LOL.
The Wire was another classic that I recently rewatched because it is so relevant to what is going on in U.S. cities today. And Omar will always be one of my favorite TV characters.
