5) Doctor Who -- I've only seen the first episode since Jodie Whittaker took over, but plan to continue watching.

I'm behind on multiple other shows as well, and have plenty of others on my list I haven't even started yet.
I agree with your assessment of True Detective, and I just finished S3. Definitely worth it.

I had to cut Narcos loose after Season 2. Since my Spanish is spotty at best I got tired of reading subtitles for hours on end. I couldn't multi-task at all while watching. For that reason, I have zero interest in Narcos Mexico which, from what I can tell, is essentially the same thing as the first Narcos.

You're missing out. I thought the 1st 3 seasons were great. But I know some spanish, so it was fun for me to try and follow along in spanish. I hadn't heard many of the cuss words in a long time.

New season of The Story of God with Morgan Freeman. Continues to lead me to beleive that all of us who are looking for God, are looking for the same one along our own paths.

Last night, he was with a Hindu family celebrating after 10 days (sorry, cna't remember the ceremony) and the final act was to go out and swing so that you lift you feet to heaven. EVERYONE loves to go swing, it put a smile on my face just to see them doing it. Then, as a typical boy-child, Morgan jumps off

As English is not my wife's first language, I've gotten used to pretty much watching all shows with subtitles on... and even though English *is* my first language, I find myself reading the subtitles anyhow...

As a follow-up to this...I've watched all but the last episode. The show was surprisingly decent; however, I didn't love the turn it took. I will say nothing further so as to not spoil it.

As a side note, not sure why many of these shows are labeled 'Season 1' when it's often clear there will not be a second season. Some of these shows aren't really designed for multiple seasons. Just call it a mini-series or series. An example of this is Seven Seconds on Netflix, which I thoroughly enjoyed. There is no second season. It was like a really long movie.

Yeah, I hear ya. I'm sure it's good stuff but I'm not willing to compromise on the subtitles. I have zero desire to do 40+ hours of largely subtitles (all Narcos seasons + Narcos Mexico). What makes this show or any other easy to move on from is how much content there is out there for us to consume. I can simply continue on with my 15 other shows and not miss a beat.

i read a rumor last year about the possibility of an 8-10 episode mini-season on netflix or one of the other streaming services....would love to see what has become of the ever-lovin' crowes and their offspring.

Did anyone watch the Pilot for Hanna? Amazon Prime aired it for a limited time during Super Bowl Week. The series premiers on March 29.

Same here man. I know the shows are good(and others have mentioned other shows from overseas that are supposed to be good) but I MUST multitask and do other stuff while watching any tv, so I cannot be forced to be looking at the screen the whole time just to know whats going on. Oh well, maybe I'll watch them someday.

So right now I am watching NCIS from last night. Robert Wagner is on there as DiNozzo Sr. I wonder how old he is and ask Alexa and he is 89 years old!!! I couldn’t believe it!

Lol, also on this show is the door man and taxi driver from Seinfeld... bald but still identifiable....

Happened upon "I'm Sorry" last night while searching for something different and gave the explicit version a try. Holy crap! that show is nasty, f'd up and funny. Started off with a 6 year old asking her parents if she should call it "my pussy or my vagina". So wrong but so funny.

Yeah its a pretty entertaining show. Season 1 is on Netlfix. Season 2 just concluded on cable. End of season 2 finale was pretty funny. It's on truTV or something like that.
