Kinda funny...been feeling really down this week, and yesterday powered up the old iPod (yeah, I know) and ended up putting Dedication on repeat for nearly an hour. And damn....Gowan has an amazing set of pipes. The feeling and energy he puts into his music is amazing. Been a fan of his since the Strange Animal/Criminal Mind days bad in the mid 1980s. Dude is a Canadian gem.

Have you heard of some new shows like The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, and The Wire?

As someone also going through Lost for the first time, those shows are much much better.
I like Lost but it's not prestige cable.
Appreciate the recommendations. Added to the watch list. Aren't those shows just as old as Lost though haha

Finished Lioness ; re-watching Ray Donovan (series) ; Jon Voight was awesome in this.
Landman s1 is good
I'm here for recommendations
Better Call Saul -> Breaking Bad can kill a bit of time

I enjoyed the agency on Prime. I really haven't watched much in awhile.

Some current or recent stuff.
Severance - Amazingly made dystopian sci-fi in a throwback 70s style. Ben Stiller is a genuinely talented filmmaker that knows how to establish an off putting and oppressive environment that pulls you in.
The Pitt - immaculate attention to detail as a real time 15 hour shift in a Pittsburgh emergency room, the spiritual successor to ER
Paradise - a dumb but incredibly fun conspiracy thriller with a pretty bonkers sci fi twist. From the This is Us team.
The Agency - slick spy thriller series with constant shifting ground and some top notch acting talent. First season is an almost identical one to The Bureau, the French series this is a remake of. There's some differences that are an improvement, some that aren't but both are intelligent shows that don't hold your hand.
SAS Rogue Heroes - on its second season now, but effectively a punk rock Danny Boyle-style telling of the story of the formation of the SAS in World War II with cartoonish over the top action delivered by some talented young actors. Second season isn't quite as good because the real historical account creates some issues for plotting but it's a good, fun show. From Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight.
And what the hell I'll also throw out Invincible.
On its third season, based on a Robert Kirkman (of walking dead fame) comic, animated show about a world and universe inhabited by superheroes. However this show is one of incredibly brutal violence with real consequences. It lacks the satire of the Boys, but instead tackles absurd subjects with straightforward honesty. An interesting twist on superheroes by showing us exactly what that would mean.

My friend, I wish you all the best and hope you enjoy Lost but to me it was one of the worst pieces of media I've ever watched. If you stop after season 2, you'll have plenty of time to watch some other series that will be a more fun ride
Must-watch shows on Crave:
- My Brilliant Friend: two girls growing up in Naples in the 50s. It's about their friendship/rivalry, and the poor neighbourhood they grow up in has a whole cast of characters. 4 seasons in total. It's adapted from a bunch of novels, so it has a proper beginning and end.
- The Penguin: it's all about the rise of this Batman universe villain. No super hero stuff, more like a hyper real mob story.
- Shoresy: will address your hockey cravings. It's a pretty weird show. The dialog is hilarious and quirky, the shots are strange. It's like Trailer Park Boys meeting David Lynch.

I watched a mini series, We Own This City. Only 6 episodes, so was able to crank through it last night.
I recommend it.
I'll plug American Primeval again too.

Yeah I was mostly kidding since those are all old shows too, haven't watched The Wire yet. Highly recommend the other two. I have weird taste and enjoy other shows like The Rehearsal, How to... with John Wilson, Euphoria, White Lotus, The Penguin, Severance, and lots of trash reality tv.

How to with John Wilson is an amazing show entirely for weirdos and will be studied for generations.

Nice! I think you will enjoy that beast. I see you ended up with the 85" too, good choice!
I have Silo in my queue and any day now I'll be jumping in. Looking forward to it, I've just been burning through a few other things first.
