For All Mankind
I love for all mankind! Worth getting apple just to watch that
Dark. German TV show about time travel. The plot can be hard to understand but I enjoyed it a lot and haven’t seen very many people who also watched it.
Dark has been a big hit in Serbia for some reason , i never finished it but i love s1 and 2
Also another german one is “How to sell drugs online (fast)” and its rly cool one
Better off Ted was an amazing sitcom on working in a mega-corp. The characters were all great, the jokes hit, I couldn’t say enough about that show but it only lasted 2 seasons.
The CEO lady was the best
She was, played by Portia de rossi. So mean, yet still likeable.
I can second better off ted. Very quippy and quirky in the best of ways.
Jabberwocky!
Clone High was amazing.
The original was fantastic and I re-watched it last year, before I even knew they rebooted it. The new reboot missed the mark for me. Couldn’t get into it.
Never heard of it what’s it about
The theme song sums it up nicely:
Way way back in the 1980’s
secret government employees
dug up famous guys and ladies
and made amusing genetic copiesWell those clones are sexy teens now
They’re gonna make it if they try
Living, learning, sharing, judging
Time to laugh and shiver and cry
Clone High!Highlights not covered by the theme song:
Robot butler / vice principle
Narrator is called “pun dog”
The voice talents of Will Forte and Christa Miller
at some point they knew they weren’t getting a second season and went balls outHigh school with clones of historical figures
Sounds quirky I’m in
Got cancelled after 2 seasons
Firefly and Freaks and Geeks were each cancelled after one season. Both great shows which ended too soon.
Firefly was technically cancelled mid season
The Decameron on Netflix. Hilarious, well acted, interesting characters with development, gorgeous sets and costumes. One season contained so you aren’t worried about it getting cancelled.
But the real hero of the show is the DOP. Each shot looks like a renaissance painting. Every single one. Play the first episode and role some dice. Pause it that many minutes in and enjoy the art.
Gotta know your piping!
The Americans is pretty good and also from the espionage genre like The Patriot. Up there with all the top tier shows for me. 96% on Rotten Tomatoes. Yet none of my friends or family have seen or heard about it.
Depends on your definition of good but Lexx is certainly a show that exists.
Lexx
It’s without a doubt the very best Canadian–German co-production science fiction television series ever created!

The Patriot was great.
The Brothers Sun on Netflix was really good, and had some surprisingly well choreographed fight scenes.
John Claude Van Johnson was better than it had a right to be.
Bodkin was good, although that was a bit more popular I think.
A Man in Full
Eric
The Patriot by Michael Bay?
It’s this show it’s a fucking masterpiece but barely anyone has seen it
Miss Scarlet and the Duke

Usher was really good. Pantheon was excellent!
The Middleman! - It was a one season amazing comedy/action show based on the graphic novels by Javier Grillo-Marxuach and Les McClaine. Staring Natalie Morales and Matt Keesler. It was campy and fun, and it was lost on a backwater cable channel so about 200 people ever watched it.
