If looking for a new series to stream

[greenbean.sixpack]

Halo (on Amazon Prime) is way above my expectations. The acting, production and story lines are good, the military strategy, tactics and planning are idiotic though. So if you were an 11 Bravo, don't say I didn't warn you. They must have studied the tactics of Sam Elliot and Tim McGraw from their 1883 campaign.

I have never played the Halo (or any) video game, so don't know how the two mesh.

Severance on AppleTV+

 

[AlSwearengen]

Pleasantly surprised with halo. Outer Range on Amazon prime with Josh Brolin is looking promising. I don’t normally like the paranormal stuff but it is good so far.

 

[ZombieKissinger]

Watching Curb and Billions right now. Watching Oscar nominees for the last few years if they have a rent option because I like doing that and have been slacking. Need to watch Euphoria season 2. I've been pretty underwhelmed w/ Netflix and Amazon original content, but I'll give Halo a whirl

 

[HamSammich]

We are currently watching Suspicion on Apple+ and it’s really good. Takes a few episodes to really set the plot but so far so good.

 

[Uncle Ruckus]

Wife got me to watch outlander with her. It’s not that bad, kinda like it.
Better Call Saul next to last season just hit Netflix, I’d watch it if you haven’t already.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Last Kingdom

 

[Walter White.sixpack]

This is the correct answer.

You won't be disappointed.

Last Kingdom

Second that, my favorite series on Netflix.

 

[Seinfeld]

Great show. I’ll never forget the first time I saw Uhtred, and I thought… this is the guy I’m supposed to believe was some great Nordic warrior? Now, I can’t imagine the series being what it is without him. The entire show has some really, really great casting

Bosch is excellent as is Line of Duty. Both on Prime.

 

[Grove Sh*tter]

I think the end of Ozark just dropped. Better call Saul and Barry just returned too

Slow Horses on Apple+

 

[The Peeper]

I'm only about 6 episodes in to Justified. It's pretty dang good if you can get past the fact that the same federal Marshall kills at least 1 fugitive or deadbeat EVERY episode. Anybody with that kind of record would be making ice cubes @ The North Pole and shipping then to Antarctica

Ozark part 2 of season 4 is coming this Friday the 29th.

Barry started back on HBO last night. Season 3.

Ted Lasso

 

[blacklistedbully]

Boardwalk Empire. Fantastic series all around. Kinda like The Sopranos, except taking place during the Prohibition Era of the 20's & 30's. Mostly historical figures (no doubt with liberties taken script-wise) including Arnold Rothstein, Lucky Luciano, Al Capone, Big Jim Colosimo, Johnny Torrio, Meyer Lansky, Bugsy Siegel, Dean O'Banion, Joe Masseria, Salvatore Maranzano, & more. More characters are loosely based on other real people, but with slight name changes.

Great plots & scripts, and top-notch acting. IMO one of the most underrated series of all time. 56 episodes over 5 seasons, so you can really sink your teeth into it.

Tokyo Vice on HBO has been really good to me.
Lot of subtitles but doesn’t take away from the series at all in my opinion.

 

[GloryDawg]

HALO is pretty good. I am also watching the remake of The Stand. King of Kingstown was pretty good.

 

[Seinfeld]

Easily one of my all time favorites with a cast full of characters that would make you hate them one minute, but then really feel for them the next. Capone was my favorite character from the show, and I’ll never forget the scene with him sitting down on his kid’s bed when he knows he’s about to get locked up. He was ruthless, but like I said, you ended up having a lot of pity for most of them by the end of the series

 

[Seinfeld]

Thanks for the Halo recommendation. I honestly didn’t have high hopes for it, but it’s certainly better than expected two episodes in.

Also, just a PSA for anyone trying to find it that it’s actually on Paramount+

Severance on AppleTV+

Best I've seen in awhile.

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Is it better than Red vs Blue?

Same here. More people should give it a try. Here's one memorable character who didn't garner any pity:

 

[greenbean.sixpack]

I'm on the second episode of Outer Range, it certainly keeps my interest. Trying to figure out what role the hippy chick is going to play.

Hang in, it gets even better. I watched it on regular TV then again on one of the streamers, I forget which one. One of my favorites.

Ted Lasso

I didn’t start Ted Lasso till recently. It far exceeded my expectations. Refreshing to watch a largely positive show.

 

[tcdog70]

Great show. I’ll never forget the first time I saw Uhtred, and I thought… this is the guy I’m supposed to believe was some great Nordic warrior? Now, I can’t imagine the series being what it is without him. The entire show has some really, really great casting

IMHO Uhtred best since Matt Dillon

 

[BigLeagueChew]

"We Own This City" on HBO debuted on Monday and was pretty good. Same executive producer who did The Wire. Takes place in Baltimore as well and is about the Gun Trace Task Force which reminds me of The Shield on FX.

 

[greenbean.sixpack]

Bumping this thread. Just started "The Old Man" on Hulu, two episodes in and pretty good.

 

[Dawgg]

The Outlaws on Amazon Prime is pretty good and easy to get through.

 

[MSUDAWGFAN]

Black Bird on Apple TV+ is one of the best shows I've ever seen. It's short - there is only 6 hour long episodes - but it's very very good.

 

[aTotal360]

This and this only.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

My wife and I have watched 5 episodes of Outer Range and stopped watching. Just wasn't getting anywhere.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

I see alot of older series so I will mention Loudermilk on Prime if you haven't watched it yet. Ron Livingston is the lead.

 

[The Fatboy]

His Dark Materials on HBO is good if you like fantasy type shows.

 

[She Mate Me]

My wife and I have watched 5 episodes of Outer Range and stopped watching. Just wasn't getting anywhere.

I'm with you, it is very weird and probably more weird than it needs to be. It almost lost me a couple of times, but I will say that the twist at the end of the season wasn't obvious to me and has locked me in to at least start again when the 2nd series drops.

Uhtred is a badass.

 

[maroonmania]

Just looked for Halo but it says its on Paramount Plus, not Amazon Prime.
