Hey all recently joined and need some help.

My wife and I are trying to find a/some new shows to watch as we still try to wait out this covid thing. This seemed as good a place as any to get some suggestions.

We have access to Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime.

So I don't waste your time I'll list out some of the things we have watched.

The Office
Parks and Rec
Community
30 Rock
Arrested Development
Brooklyn 99
*****ts Creek
The Good Place
What We Do in the Shadows

Breaking Bad
Better Call Saul
Game of Thrones
WestWorld
Stranger Things
Ozark
The Walking Dead
Agents of Shield
The Witcher
The Boys
Justified
Longmire


Current Considerations
- Dark
- The Last Kingdom

If those shows which appealed to both of you. Do you get engrossed into a show or just have it on in the background to keep you entertained


Loved Dark but it isn't for everyone
Succession is another that is a solid choice.
Liked the one episode of Sex Education but haven't gone back after I started rewatching Dark before season 3 came out.

Watch Fargo on Hulu.
The first season took me a little bit to get into, but season two is my single favorite season of tv ever. S3 can be skipped though. (Each season stands alone.)

Breaking bad is my favorite show. Seeing it on your list made me think you'll like Fargo.
Thanks and gig'em

I get engrossed in the show. My wife is more of the background entertainment person which is why she usually doesn't care what we watch

I'm going to throw an off-the-wall one out there. My wife and I like similar shows and last summer we binged, Suits. We really enjoyed the show. There are 100+ episodes so it'll keep you busy.

Dark is one of the best shows I have seen in a long while but you have to pay attention and I watched with English dubbed then on my rewatch I watched in German with English subtitles. German is the way to go.
I liked suits for first four seasons then lost interest.
Haven't seen Barry but heard good things

Psych is my feel-good show of the last 2 decades.
Stupid Sexy Flanders

Last Man on Earth

It's only 4 seasons and was cancelled before the show could come to a conclusion, but still one of my favorites.

Man in the High Castle. Just turn off prior to last episode in the series and think up your own ending.

Don't watch Dark until you learn German, you lose some nuance reading the subtitles.

Last Kingdom (fantastic, Destiny is All)
Red Oaks (fun country club themed young love story/comedy)
Catastrophe (great comedy)
Dark is amazing and I'm sad it's over but you've got to be committed from the jump and put the phones/laptops/iPads away and pay attention. German subtitles is the only way to go on this one. The dub is atrocious.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel
Bosch
Ferg

Amazon Prime (with commercials)

Spenser For Hire-staring Robert Urich and Avery Brooks
(Detective show set in Boston, filmed on location)

Wiseguy-staring Ken Wahl
(Undercover FBI)

Both shows had a lot of guest stars that went on to have pretty great careers in film.

I will reiterate The Shield. Good till the last scene of the last episode.
Also the Wire. My vote for best TV drama before Breaking Bad came out

Also, gotta watch News Radio if for no other reason than just to get the best of Phil Hartman in his prime. You also get to see Joe Rogan in his first acting gig, and he's a riot. Oh, and F--- Andy Dick. You can skip the last season.
