Whats some good TV shows to watch?

I must admit I never watched Season 2, after hearing reports.
Season 1 was one of the best seasons of tv I have ever seen ... on par with that?
not sure about 'on par', but it definitely has the potential i think...and it has the same feel/style as season 1. i wasnt a fan of season 2 and i can safely say, this wont be like that.
 
I watched the first 2 episodes of Season 3 of True Detective and loved it and then thought I must have been living under a rock to have not heard of this before. On the weekend I went out and bought the first two seasons and finished season 1 just then. It was amazing!
 
just finished true detective (s3). excellent. was a little disappointed by the ending, but not enough for it to ruin it for me...
 
So last season of Game of Thrones ??? What did everyone think?
Pretty sure they dropped the ball on this one, plenty of action but left the storyline behind somewhere.
I would never in a million years, have come up with who ended up on the throne.
 
Yeah, after so many years of such great unpredictable edge of your seat stuff, it was a real pity it ended with such a whimper...

Maybe we should just say it ended after the battle of Winterfell and leave it at that, because the last 3 episodes were terrible...
 
I just can't get over how each character seem to lose the essence of who they were in the final season.

It made me really sad tbh. In the past, the theme music would stir something inside me and I'd get really excited and even get withdrawal symptoms in the last 5 minutes before the episodes had even ended (lol sad), but I just felt nothing leading up to the final few episodes.

Just makes me want to pick up the books and get reading, I know he is very close to releasing the last book/s in the series.

Yeah, I suppose I feel a bit of disappointment more than anything...like you say the characters seemed to just become shells and one dimensional, not the fully rounded charcters we've watched for years. And in all those years, the show was never pedestrian or predictable or have the gaping plot holes or "conveniences" late in that last season had. There were very few surprises and the ones that did happen were either pretty silly or headscratchers at best...

i thought it was lame that everyone left got pretty much exactly what they wanted...even jon got to join the nights watch like he wanted since the first episode. and watching the big chick fill out jaime's pages with utter fluff was excruciating.
the episode where the dead attack was even worse tho.
it couldve all worked well if they spent more time on it. like most people, i think it was all waaaay to rushed.

Smashed my way through The Witcher on Netflix over the past couple of nights. As a fan of the books and the games the series was great. A solid 9/10 from me. Henry Cavill smashes it as Geralt. Some of the charachters arent really how they are depicted in the books and games so it loses a point there but everything else was so good I was able to look past that mostly.
Not sure how it would be to someone fresh to the series but would be interested to hear some thoughts.
