I decided to give the show Chicago Fire a shot and it is really good, great even when you consider it is a network drama. The character development is just fantastic and I really enjoy the cast. Jesse Spencer might be better in this than he was in House and it is no wonder why Lauren German got the female lead in Lucifer. I also really like Eamonn Walker in it, it's not an epic role like Kareem Said in Oz but he does a great job as the chief.
 
I actually started Aquarius last night, I really liked that as well. It has David Duchovny and it's a series about Charles Manson.
 
I like Duchovny, X-Files was great. When I was young and needed showcase, Red Shoe Diaries was amazing :laugh:. I have yet to see Californication but I've heard mixed reviews. Then Manson is just so damn fascinating, truly one of the most brilliant evil minds. I will have to check this out.

I need to check out Narcos too, I had it downloaded before I formatted my laptop but I never got around to it because it wasn't something that I could watch at work due to the the violence and subtitles.

It's really good IMO. Duchovny is awesome in the show and the acting overall is quite good IMO. It's a 13 part series and each episode has me more intrigued to watch more.

:laugh: Nice! Basically Manson abducts his former lawyers teenage daughter Duchovny (a cop) and his partner start to learn about who he is.

It is factual based, how accurately though I am unsure but nonetheless I've enjoyed the first 4 episodes.

Season 2 ends Saturday, it's good timing to binge watch :laugh:
 
Aquarius is a great series, I got hooked earlier this summer when I saw the first season on Netflix. I started to PVR it on TV but it wasn't nearly as good (read: censored on network TV) as it was on Netflix, so when I saw they were simultaneously showing the second season on Netflix, I started the second season over again.

IMO, it is Duchovny's best performance since The X-Files (I am not including the six-episode run from earlier this year).

Yeah that's a series I have to check out. My sister said it was really good.

I gotta say I'm really surprised you enjoyed X-Files :laugh: I really liked Californication, but I can see how people may not like the series towards the end. The daughter is seriously annoying, but overall I really enjoyed the storylines and dialogue. The situations Runkle gets himself is are hilarious and if it counts for anything, RZA is in a lot of season 5 haha

I enjoy alot of cop type shows and to be honest, and to be honest I really don't even mind Supernatural.

I think what I liked about X-Files, especially in early seasons is the fact most cases were proven to explainable. But I enjoyed the dynamic between the believer and the non-believer.

Supernatural is one of my guilty pleasures too, especially the monster-of-the-week episodes that I started liking since the X-Files days.
 
I still greatly enjoy Supernatural. Nowhere near as good as seasons 1-5, but I enjoy it.

Not a big Duchovney fan. I enjoy some early XFiles but didn't really like Aquarius. Just find him very dull.
 
Just dummied through both seasons of Rick and Morty... what a fantastic weekend..

Now there is this void.

:laugh: I watched it for a girl since it was her favorite show. I have watched the first 8 or 9 seasons but seasons 1-5 were pretty good actually, after that it got terrible. It's just starting to get good again the last place I watched, but I heard it jumps the shark again :laugh:
