Suggest a TV series for me to get into..

I didnt get into it until season 6 had started. I then caught up by watching 55 episodes in a month.

 

It's an alternative reality, isn't it? The Axis Powers of the Nazi Reich and the Japanese won WWII. By all accounts, the Nazis got hold of the first A-Bomb and dropped it on Washington, thus defeating the Allies. The USA is now split into two, one half controlled by the Nazis and the other by the Japanese. It's 1962 and both 'sides' want dominance and to eradicate the other.
In between all that you have the many characters and their stories within it. As well as the cine-reels of footage from 'the man in the high castle' that show Japan being attacked by the A-Bomb and certain characters able to move from this alternative world into 'our' world where the Allies won WWII. It's a bit of a mind-**** and without spoiling it for others, I can't wait for series 3 where I expect that little plot-device to become more clear.

I preferred the second season. They begin to humanise John Smith and Chief Inspector Kido. The last couple of episodes are mental and the CGI used is incredible. You can tell Ridley Scott was involved.

If you've watched series 1 then tha daft if tha dunt watch 2.

Better, in my opinion. Explains a lot from season 1, adds more depth to certain characters. Julianna Crane is still annoying. Some great twists.


But no, I haven't a clue what the time-hopping/alternate reality hopping is about. I assume season 3 will cover that.

 

What GoT?

Me too. Had season 1 dvd for a couple of years but never got round to it. Once I did season 5 was out and I binged like a binging, bingey binger.

Just done season 6, 3 times and gone into serious withdrawal...

 

Yeah GoT. The battle of the *******s episode in S6 was just phenomenal.

 

Watch the 'making of' extra and commentary with Jon Snow. Some serious dragon action too... And then the final scene revelation. Had to go straight back to season 1 after that, looking for plot flaws... There aren't any.

 

You'd enjoy Vikings then,presuming you haven't seen it.
Also The Pacific ,it's a one off series based on true characters similar to band of brothers.
Also Marco polo Netflix version.

 

Shooter, Suits, White Collar, izombie enjoyed all those

 

Seen the making of battle of the bas***ds before its amazing link here;

The Last Ship. Definitely my favourite. Think series 3 just finished. Really good.

 

Quarry - only 8 episodes
Bloodline - first series only
11.22.63 - miniseries
The Night Of - miniseries
And must watch Gomorrah, best gangster drama since The Sopranos.

 

If you like that you will also like Rovers about a non-league football team, very similar.

 

Still Open All Hours is a sneaky new version of Last of the Summer Wine.

 

Forgot to mention Taboo. With Tom Hardy. Well weird but it's decent. First series is still ongoing on BBC1, but catch up is ont iPlayer.

The Brittas Empire

 

Just finished 2000 acres of Sky box set. Lovely bit of gentle escapism from a few years back. borrow it if you like, mate.

 

Big bang Theory. all 9 seasons. I have to watch every past episode every time a new dvd comes out.

 

If you want something a bit different (and British), try Inside No. 9. I've only seen the first series and the Christmas special so far. Each episode is completely different and very quirky with some good twists.

 

but, WilkoJohnson ... do you like Circuses?

 

Childhood's End - it's a three parter
