minus-squareDagwoodIII@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·8 days agoAll time and in no particular order. Black Sails. Pirate action. All the sex and violence of GOT with less chatter. Penny Dreadful. Eva Green and Timothy Dalton as 1800s vampire hunters. Monarch. Giant monsters and cut throat politics makes a great combination. I, Claudius. Old BBC series about the first four Roman Emperors. Look for a very young Patrick Stewart. The Prisoner. Another oldie. Franz Kafka and Ian Fleming got together and did an episode of Dr. Who. The Americans. Soviet spies undercover in 1980s Washington, DC.
minus-squarereddig33@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 days agoAnother vote for “The Prisoner” and “I Claudius”. Claudius starts slow, but picks up after the first episode.
minus-squareVisstix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·8 days agoBlack sails does not get the attention it deserves.
minus-squareDagwoodIII@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·8 days agoThis is how my A.B.normal brain works. You say Black Sails doesn’t get enough attention. That reminds me of all the under rated actors out there, which reminds me of ‘Doom Patrol’ with Brendan Frasier and April Bowlby. Now I have to add the first three seasons of Doom Patrol to the list… Also, Ozark…
minus-squareVisstix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·8 days agoI’m sorry, it was not my intention to set you on a path of enjoyment.
minus-squareyessikg@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 days agoAh Penny Dreadful, such a shame there were only 2 seasons Seriously, don’t watch the third
minus-squareDagwoodIII@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 days agoAnd yet, the third season of the Eva Green series was superior to the Nathan Lane [as a tough cop???] LA version.
minus-squareyessikg@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 days agoSurprised you watched it at all, the trailers were not impressive
minus-squareDagwoodIII@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·7 days agoI think I lasted three episodes of the LA version…
