So my favourite tv shows prisonbreak, stranger things, dexter and breaking bad finished

I watched game of thrones first season didnt like it much and now in the middle of the walking deead.

The first 3 seasons were on parr with breaking bad and prisonbreak, but season 4 is just dragged out, they bring back old characters like the governor and some scenes are completely pointless. Like the first episode in season 4 with the irish woman who yaps on ..what was the whole point of that scene, already saw people keeping walkers as they were family members, seems like they're just reusing the old plot lines.

They could have made new plot lines, but just plain old killing more walkers, ppl walking etc. some new plot lines like underground tunnels, level 1 or 2 walkers, stronger more fearsome walkers. I get the whole point of the other humans as being worse than walkers is fine, but that's what was shown in season 3?

I think i'll continue with this show but any other suggestions?

edit
THANKS FOR everyone's suggestions!
Persisted through season 4 of TWD and mid way of season 5…but incredibly mind numbing boring…like i wold rate it at 2/10. So boring that i just skip some scenes. Seriously couldn't the writeers think of something else than just break into a house, steal, walkers then a main character goes, people mourn, then repeat FFS.

    Can't believe no one has mentioned Lucifer.
    It drags a bit sometimes but it's a pretty good story. Loved it and everyone that I know that has watched also loved it!

    They have already been mentioned, but based on the other shows you like, I would highly recommend:

    • Fargo
    • Justified
  • av-android on 05/02/2020 - 11:55

    Money Heist if you have Netflix.

    It's a Spanish show dubbed into English about a bunch of people planning to rob the Royal Mint of Spain.

    Just finished S1 and S2. It wasn't too bad actually though it got a little cliche towards the last episodes.

      Season 1 was particularly good. Don't watch the dubbed version. Watch it in Spanish with subs, it is MUCH better. Season 4 is out in April.

  • [Deactivated] on 05/02/2020 - 12:34

    Has anyone mentioned:

    The Morning Show

    Apple TV

    I enjoyed them both!

  • Brianqpr on 05/02/2020 - 13:23

    If you haven't seen The Wire then that is the one to watch. I've not seen anything better and in my opinion it is far, far superior to Breaking Bad. Such a complex story told from all perspectives. As soneone else said use subtitles as the Baltimore accent and slang takes some getting used to. You will also avoid missing some killer quotes if the subtitles are on.

    I thought the first couple of seasons of the good place were brilliant but the repeated jokes about the characters started to wear thin and I found the latest series hard work. Good finish though!

  • LinkJah on 05/02/2020 - 20:14

    Can't go wrong with the ones mentioned. Mr. Robot is one of the top choices.

    I enjoyed-
    Utopia (British) they have just finished a US version which is due out soon. Older show, not that well known. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utopia_(British_TV_series)
    The Sinner (first season).
    The leftovers.
    The first few seasons of Falling Skies.
    It's always sunny in Philadelphia.

    • serpserpserp on 07/02/2020 - 10:04

      The first few seasons of Falling Skies.

      Yes how good was that show early on? Then it got extended beyond what they thought was going to happen and they had to just fill it with content and then made it very actiony.

      • LinkJah on 11/02/2020 - 16:47

        Yeah first seasons were great, then they must have changed writers. Too true, don't get me started on the daughter's story line either.

    Homeland, I really enjoyed it once I started watching it.

  • CircularIllusion on 05/02/2020 - 21:04

    I'm sad to see that no one's mentioned Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. You basically need to have some familiarity with the MCU or you'll miss out many of the references. Season 7, the finale one, will be coming out this year and I'll be sad to see it end. Every season has just been mind blowing and ties amazingly with the MCU.

    • serpserpserp on 07/02/2020 - 10:05

      I found the first few seasons great. Then after the Bill Paxton event it really kind of went a bit soft. Season 5 was pretty epic though.

  • Inzo on 06/02/2020 - 00:16

    Searched whole thread, could not find a single reference to Dollhouse.

    Great show, pretty much the inspiration for the concept behind Altered Carbon…. just with more ELiza Dushku & Summer Glau (but no nudity) :(

    • AncientWisdom on 06/02/2020 - 01:31

      Yes! Amazing show that ended prematurely.

      • serpserpserp on 07/02/2020 - 10:06

        Just like Dark Angel.

      • Inzo on 08/02/2020 - 15:26

        It did, but to be honest I loved the 2nd half of season 2, everything ramped up so quick, and you could see where it was going, then the season 2 epilogue was like "Oh shit, they didnt stop it at the end of Season1!!"

    • Xenocaust on 07/02/2020 - 15:13

      The Altered Carbon novel was published in 2002, Dollhouse premiered in 2009.

  • Vespien on 06/02/2020 - 03:56

    Here are some of my favourites that I would definately recommend:

    GOT - Definately stick with it, it gets better (Just lets not talk about Seasons 7 and 8)
    Deadwood
    Chenobyl - 5-part mini-series.
    Killing Eve
    Downton Abbey
    Black Books
    Fleabag
    Sherlock
    Wentworth
    The IT Crowd

    I left off Dexter and Stranger Things as you already mentioned those.

  • obudd on 06/02/2020 - 06:50

    Dollhouse.

    The Expanse.

    Altered Carbon.

    American Gods

    Good Omens.

    Chernobyl.

    Vikings.

    Westworld.

    The Boys.

    • Mosher on 06/02/2020 - 11:12

      I enjoyed good omens but the book was better (ass it is 99.9% of the time)

      • Cletus vandamme on 06/02/2020 - 16:39

        Oh god I hated good omens. Just felt like they were trying to hard to be funny.

        • playswithfire on 06/02/2020 - 21:12

          I take it you've never read Terry Pratchett or Neil Gaiman's books, then? The TV show was a complete reflection of their senses of humour.

        • Drj55 on 11/02/2020 - 22:29

          I thought it was really so funny and clever when I read the book at age 13, and just so try hard and obvious when watching it at 40

    Also Supernatural is way more entertaining than TWD. It's also the longest running sci-fi TV series ever.

    Better call saul is a spin off of breaking bad following Saul Goodman / James McGill (the dodgy lawyer). This show imo is better than Breaking bad and has some really fantastic acting. If you liked BB you'll like bcs.

    To not duplicate all really good recommendarions above, mine is "Riverdale".
    This tv series won't overload your brain and not a masterpiece.
    The plot is a bit weak due to numerous teenage vanilla twists but still watchable.

  • serpserpserp on 07/02/2020 - 10:00

    The Shield.

    Plus my odd pick - Flavor of Love - For the lols

    Oh it looks like it hasn't been mentioned, but you definitely have to watch Buffy the Vampire Slayer and see where all the sharp wit American Joss Whedon type shows originally came from. It is a bit of a masterpiece (although I really didn't like it when it came out). Has plenty of seasons to sink your teeth into (pun intended).

    Both only 1 season, with 2nd seasons on the way. So you aren't roped into 8 seasons of something you lose interest in half way through.
