The Good Guys was a great show. It only ran for two seasons. If you can find it on Blu-Ray, DVD, or streaming, you should watch it.

Atypical and American Vandal are the two latest shows I have watched. I enjoyed both of them.

I can vouch for Halt and Catch Fire. I wish Gordon hadn't died. He was the steady rock among all the characters.

Love Halt and Catch Fire agree about Gordon.
But the best show on TV no one is watching is "Billions", hands down.
Best writing, best plots, best twists, best characters, best everything. The dialogue in that show is amazing.
"Suits" would be my second choice only because once Mike's secret was out there, there just isn't that much they can do that hasn't been done. But show has great dialogue/writing, too.

I tried to get into that one because very much in my wheelhouse but a lot of syfy shows have great premises but idk maybe i expect a little too much? Like that miniseries about the people in that deepspace project a couple years ago...

Yeah, Donna's the worst, Cameron's annoying, Gordon was the best, and Lee Pace is one of the greatest actors of our time.

+1 on Suits and agreed about the show since Mike's secret it out. I'm glad that Jessica has made some cameo appearances, but I miss her on there full time.

I've heard Billions from a lot of people out here, need to check it out. Can I watch it on Hulu with the Showtime free trial?

One great show that I think nobody pays attention to is The Americans. From the script to acting, it's one of the few shows I go out of my way to watch since I don't watch much tv.

YES to Vice Principals. The last episode was just ok but the season opener was brilliant.

And speaking of Netflix -- Lillyhammer! It was one of, if not the first, original program and it's awesome.

It's on my shortlist, everybody tells me I need to watch it. I feel like it's in the same situation as Halt and Catch Fire, where the eyes aren't there but the network recognizes the high quality product they have so they don't care as much about viewership, hoping emmy nods and wins will eventually turn the tide.
