Good show! I also liked Agent Carter. Just finished watching Rookie Blue Season 5 and 6.
Agent carter was good yes. Just watched the series finale of continuum. Saw folks talking about blindspot, I like the show but not nbc. Everytime I get into one of their shows they cancel it. Most recently was Constantine and before that Revolution. So I am wary of getting too much into anything they air.

I like Continuum too. I think most networks are in the same boat. I remember a while back when ABC was cancelling shows mid-season. I wasn't too into Constantine but Revolution was pretty interesting.

I download seasons at a time rather than watch weekly so I'm careful not to run into spoilers in this thread. There were a few shows that I just couldn't finish watching because they were so bad.

In queue: Ballers, Banshee Dominion, Humans, Orphan Black, Penny Dreadful, Proof, Ray Donovan, Last man on Earth, True Detective, Zoo.

With the great list going here, no one mentioned Hannibal...

I really feel sorry for Bryan Fuller, all his shows are just cursed to be canceled. :nah:

That said, I'm kinda okay with Hannibal getting canceled, as I think it's a complete waste for him to direct something he didn't conceptualize. His high concept offerings were far more engaging, IMHO, than the Hannibal premise (let's face it: Silence of the Lambs was good because of great character acting, and not so much the old "Let's chase the serial killer(s) trail of torture porn" premise... of which there's already 96 seasons of Criminal Minds out there).

Hopefully he's not been smacked down too many times to come up with another delightfully quirky and imaginative show. He's one of my favorites for sure... in fact, Dead Like Me is still probably my favorite show to this day.

I kind of hated it eventually but watched anyway to see what kind of sick .... they'd come up with next.
This was brilliant though...

I thought it was pretty good but I don't know how I feel about throwing away everything that happened in the past 9 seasons and now saying it was just humans all long.
So you're saying I don't need to finish my 9 season marathon before watching the new episodes?

I found to my delight that nearly every episode of "Gunsmoke" is on YouTube, which can be streamed on a Roku box at 480p, so I don't blow my 150GB/month data cap ...

Gunsmoke was my Dad's favorite TV show when I was growing up, but I was 3 years old when it started, don't remember much from the early episodes ...

Already up to Season 13 of 20 seasons ...

Leonard Nimoy appears in several episodes from the 50s, as well as William Shatner, DeForest Kelley, and James Doohan. Star Trek must have used the same casting agent ... :laugh:

When I'm done, gonna start with "Have Gun Will Travel". Or maybe "Maverick". Or "The Rebel" ...

I'm taking "second childhood" seriously ... :D
