Almost forgot Shameless (the US version). If you can handle a show about a family full of debauchery, nudity, and chock full of bad decisions, it's good.
Now that I think of it, I've seen Acorn App on my Roku in the kitchen...I've never even bothered to open itI LOVE British shows. Considering subscribing to the Acorn App so I can get even more. Have you seen Broadchurch? It's really good.
Yes, I have watched all 4 episodes. Very good but obviously dramatized for the viewer.I'll give an upvote to Dope, the second episode about Baltimore was pretty good. Although both episodes I watched used a hook where they make it sound like the cops they are with are closing in on the doper they are engaged with. A bit of a cheap shot.
I'm looking forward to S7. Good series. I like a lot of british tv, too. Loved Doc Martin and Murder in Paradise.Call the Midwife is really good. I just finished all 6 Seasons and am anxiously awaiting the 7th. It's one of those shows that just makes you feel good (mostly, there are some sad episodes).
Black Mirror is really good if you like Twilight Zone type stuff. Very clever (and disturbing).
I think you would like 'The Crown' about the life of the current queen Elizabeth. Very lushly done and well acted. I find it fascinating, especially how she and the Churchill interacted.I'm looking forward to S7. Good series. I like a lot of british tv, too. Loved Doc Martin and Murder in Paradise.
I'm actually up to date on The Crown, I just didn't feel the need to list everything I've watched. B and I both like it. We binged on it last time he was home, and got caught up. I try to save some things to watch with him when he's home.I think you would like 'The Crown' about the life of the current queen Elizabeth. Very lushly done and well acted.

Oh, they get better.Started watching 'Black Mirror' and it is very good.I didn't realize I started with season 4 so I am working my way backwards.
The only episode that really disturbed me so far was the one with the robot dogs. Wow. Very intense and suspenseful.![]()

They all aren't quite the same (nail-biting, edge of your seat, nightmare material) as some are more focused (especially in the earlier seasons) on the technology and how it affects people in less, um, life threatening ways.![]()
I shall make sure I watch this show earlier in the day as the dreams I have had afterwards were insane!

Yes, I know that - now.They all aren't quite the same (nail-biting, edge of your seat, nightmare material) as some are more focused (especially in the earlier seasons) on the technology and how it affects people in less, um, life threatening ways.![]()
That's my draw to it as well. When I started the Callister episode, I was thinking, "WTF is this?" but the draw is finding out the plot half way in.Yes, I know that - now.Since I started watching Season 4 first, the first one I watched was "USS Callister” aka the Star Trek episode. So far it is my favorite. About two episodes into season 3 now.
But each episode is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you're going to get. And I really like that about the series.
Well, considering that was my very first impression of the series, "WTF is this?" is quite an understatement.That's my draw to it as well. When I started the Callister episode, I was thinking, "WTF is this?" but the draw is finding out the plot half way in.
