    I started watching The Outsiders and Taboo this week, still not too sure on The Outsiders, but loving Taboo (the fact that Tom Hardy gets naked in it, has no impact at all whatsoever :lol:)

    Wentworth! If you liked Orange is the New Black then try Wentworth. It's really similar but it's less comical and more serious but the plot twists are sooooo good. Took me 2 episodes to get used to the Australian accents but don't let that stop you. It's amazing. (it's on Netflix!)

    I loved Wentworth, far grittier than OINTB

    I couldn't get into Orange is the New Black. What am I not getting?

    I stopped at season 3. Really kinda weird and makes me feel uncomfortable at times. I hope I never end up in jail.

    I started Being Human (US version) and enjoying it so far. I quit the OA after 4 episodes because it's just too weird.

    I stopped at season 3 as well. I just...couldn't get into it anymore. I thought the first season was awesome, but after that I felt like it was a lot of gratuitous sex.

    I loved Being Human (US) and was sad when it ended. I was thinking about re-watching it :)

    Arrow, the Flash, Hawaii 5-0, Blindspot, Scorpion & my favorite new show of the season, Lethal Weapon. It has the same vibe as the movies, unlike the horrid Rush Hour series. I also like the show Timeless on NBC. It's a fun time travel show. I agree with the poster who suggested Alias & 24.

    Firefly. Short.. one season. Available on Netflix now. If you really need something to keep you busy a while, Stargate SG1 is 10 seasons, Stargate Atlantis is 5 seasons, and Stargate Universe is 2 seasons.

    Basically AMC is killing it:

    If you enjoyed Breaking Bad......then.......Better Call Saul on AMC is an absolute must. A lot of people have recommended a lot of great shows in this thread which I completely agree with, but I cannot believe nobody has mentioned Better Call Saul. There are tons of witty obscure Breaking Bad references. Mike and Jimmy are frig'n awesome.

    Preacher on AMC is amazing. One of the best bar fight scenes I have ever seen and a hilarious Tom Cruise reference.

    Humans on AMC is really really good.

    Mr. Robot is freakishly entertaining. It's like Fight Club meets WarGames.

    Black Mirror is like a modern day version of The Twilight Zone on steroids.

    I second Better Call Saul if you loved Breaking Bad. It's on Netflix right now. I'm also surprised Dexter wasn't listed.

    I tried watching Santa Clarita but couldn't get past the first five minutes.

    The Wire is pretty much the best show I've ever seen. The Killing & The Fall are good too.
    The Crown was fabulous.
    There's a mini series on HBO called The Night Of
    and it was good too.
