    I will give The Good Place a shot according to this thread.

    I took a break halfway through Alienist but finished it and enjoyed it enough to try season 2 whenever that may be.
    Just finished Ozark season 2. One of my favorite shows. The daughter annoys me to death and think she should die in season 3. I really like the son's character.
    Enjoying Counterpart. Interesting world.
    Peaky Blinders is my favorite show on TV, interested how being on BBC One will affect the show going forward.
    My guilty pleasure is the show Bull. Just easy fodder to watch with the wife.
    I have paused on Billions for a while and will eventually get back to it.
    If you haven't watched Broadchurch, please do it.
    Crashing is ok and isn't totally unwatchable.
    Dirk Gently is really fun and excited what style they will bring to season 3.
    Really like the Expanse but not sure what will become of it going forward.
    My other guilty pleasure is The Librarians. It makes for a nice Saturday morning watch.
    Really loved the Magicians books. Not so much the series.
    Mr. Robot pulled me back this past season.
    Did I give up on Preacher too early, made it a couple episodes in to season 2?
    Really liked Taboo which will be coming back next year.
    VEEP is one of my favorite comedies.

    Sorry for the long post.

    Yeah maybe give Preacher another shot, gets good and darker as it goes, the line of bad taste is tapped danced upon...

    Dirk Gently is something I been meaning to get into - I have heard good things

    I started THE INNOCENT on NEtflix .. . so far it is interesting
    same feel as Orphan Black but completely different concept and location
    it seems like you are at the beginning of a bigger world or something

    I like Counterpart alot - J K Simmons. . . cannot go wrong there

    PEaky Blinders, Broadchurch, Bull, have not gripped me enough
    Librarians is so so . . . i am not consistent with it

    I just finished Westworld, I think. That show is so confusing.

    The wife and I binged about 8 episodes of The Good Place last night

    Some very good comedic writing and a lot of the jokes where right in my wheel house. We will probably finish the first season tonight.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    I have watched Westworld, it has thought a little too highly of itself and all of its metaphysical questions. But I have watched some on the upcoming season and I will continue watching. I wish it was a bit more Yule Brynner-esque

    The trailer for The Apostle on Netflix looks quite interesting.

    I have thought about The Innocents and still not sure. I lost interest in Orphan Black by the second season.

    I will eventually try again with Preacher, it may have just been a low part of the season.

    Man, Rocket River I suggested you watch The Good Place months and months ago. You are just now getting around to watching it? smh. Disappointing. Maybe my description wasn't good enough.

    Westworld can feel like a chore to watch.
    First Season was exciting . .. i honestly don't remember if I finished the second season

    Just watched the "mockumentary", American Vandal S2 on Netflix. If you liked the first season, you'll like the second one.

    I’m binging The Americans.
    I really enjoy it.

    However I am curious ... was Keri Russell in a committed relationship when she stepped out with Matthew Rhys? Didnshe basically cheat on her husband and leave him to get with her costar? Or were they on the outs?

    For some reason I’d rather just have not known the two leads were a real life couple with a kid.

    I am currently bouncing back and forth between IRON FIST and THE INNOCENT
    When one boreds me or irritates me to tears. . . i go back o the other one

    IRON FIST is more irritating
    The Innocent can get boring

    It must be slowing you down watching both at the same time.

    I find Iron Fist Season 2 entertaining. More than Luke Cage S2. Binged former in couple of days.

    I hate how those hands light up every time but once I made my peace with it, it's good.

    JJ S2 and Matt Murdoch S2 are still there for me to pick up.

    I am so sick of Ward and his Sister
    every time either of them is on the screen i just roll my eyes
    Typhoid Mary is interesting but they really wasting her
    The best Fight so far has Coleen against the other two women

    Aluminum Fist is just boring himself
    I like Luke 2 better. . . mainly because I like Bushmaster more than I am liking Davos

    Yeah, I like the idea of making Mary the way she is with personalities, although neither has committed to a side.

    I like everything about Luke other than he got no sidekick and Bush guy has to use enhancers to push himself to the limit.

    Ward is sort of redundant while I like how Joy looks so it's more the type I can live with. She can be annoying yeah.

    I found the first season tedious and boring. I was gonna ditch it until the finale. Season 2 was an improvement imo

    Just wrapped up Season 2 of Sinner... It was good, but ended with a major wimper. Not nearly as good as the first season though.
