Going on an extended trip for a bit. I want to know what to stock up on.

Also wondering what all of you are watching.

    Sense8

    It’s made by the same sisters who directed The Matrix and it’s amazing. Just kinda weird wrap-up.

      Netflix cancelled the show, and after fan backlash, they ended up greenlighting a finale. While the finale was pretty abrupt, it was better than nothing.

          It had enormous potential then just sort of ended in an orgy and…the world is Netflix

          I’ll hate them forever for cancelling Santa Clarita Diet right when Fillion shows up

    I can’t belive nobody has recommended The Good Place yet. Only 53 episodes, just about 20 hours total, and an amazing series. You can watch the whole thing on a long enough trip and it’s an amazing ride. Do yourself a favour and don’t read up on it just go along for the ride.

    Drama - The Wire
    Comedy - Arrested Development
    Mystery - Twin Peaks

    Those should keep you going a while 😁

    Stargate SG1 - It’s like Star Trek with machineguns.

    FarScape - It’s like Star Trek but the main cast are fugitives, there’s lots of muppets, and watching it makes you feel like you’re on drugs.

    The Righteous Gemstones - Danny McBride made comedy farce about a horrible, vain, and stupid megachurch family.

    Batman Beyond - Cyberpunk batman with an unparalleled intro sequence.

    Jericho - Post apocalyptic show with a conspiracy mystery bent and heavy GWB GWOT flavor.

    Kings - A sort of adaption of the story of King David in a modern setting.

      I Ike Righteous Gemstones, but it’s A LOT of Danny McBride. Aside from John Goodman, every actor is channeling Danny McBride through their line delivery and movement. It’s like Danny McBride directed them by saying “Do it like THIS, exactly like this. Mimic my every inflection.”

    Can’t believe I haven’t seen someone say Mr. Robot. My favorite show of all time. Opened my eyes to corporate greed for the first time. Can also buy a blu ray of it if you don’t want to pay the subscription. Cyberpunk: Edgerunners was pretty good Also second Andor (I haven’t watched season 2 yet, but season 1 was a banger), Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul

    Old sci-fi hands down: Babylon 5.
    And a lot of young people haven’t seen some movies: Matrix (mostly the first one), The fifth element, Short circuit, if you want blood: RoboCop movies. Animation: Titan AE, Vampire Hunter D, Battle Angel Alita, Blood the last vampire.

    Actually curious why a TV show?

    Could watch some documentaries about your trip destination and be inspired to visit around?

    Otherwise fallout.
