Television Anyone recommend me any TV Shows?

For some strange reason I'd always avoided watching Six Feet Under and over the past few months, I've finally started and almost finished it. It really is a wonderful show and I'm two episodes from a finale which I've heard is one of the best of all time?
It definitely is, I don't think that any other finale has left that kind of impact on me.
Netflix has Lawrence of Arabia (restored version). One of the best movies ever made.
I watched it last year sometime and I'm sorry but
I found it ridiculous 
I was expecting something incredible but it was just all of them keeling over in awful ageing make-up.

Have heard good things about Andor tbf.
Black Sails has good bewbs and is a decent show also.
I found her character a little annoying last season but she seems a bit toned down this time around..so far.
Yeah but it’s about pirates right? Just not my kind of genre.
Just finished Top Boy season 4, or the second season of the Drake produced reboot. It's lost the charm and good writing from the original 2 seasons. The new stuff is completely random and lacks depth, though it's still really well acted. The final scene was just completely meaningless. Shame, cos I was a huuuuge fan of the original show when it first aired.
Has anyone here seen Hannibal? Worth a watch?

Oh yes
May be a controversial opinion but I thought that the Six Feet Under finale wasn't all that great? Don't get me wrong, it was a very good finale but given the hype around it as maybe the greatest finale ever, I think I expected more? I actually found the episode of Nate's death probably the best of the entire series and one that leaves you quite emotionally wrecked.
Yep that episode was way better than the goofy ending with everyone keeling over.
Claire also looked like she's part of a Honda TV advert while she was driving to New York. I think I just had extremely high expectations from the finale and it left me a bit disappointed. The Nate funeral episode was sensational though.
Currently watching The Bear on Disney+ and it’s excellent
A really good drama-comedy with some great characters in it.

Just watched the first episode of this and it was a pile of shit. Awful acting, main guy was a caricature, bad dialogue exposition and a rushed ending
Anyone recommend The Devil's Hour with Capaldi?
Quite fancy watching that.

Some people did recommend it on the previous page and I've started watching on the basis of that. Hoping its good.
The Blacklist season 9, very good start and renewed for a 10th season.
OH Yes , Mads Mikkelsen is brilliant in it, 3 seasons each ep excellent.
Glad Netflix didn't cancel this. Arguably the best animated show they've put out...
Currently watching Peaky Blinders. I'm getting to the end of Season 2 now and it's been great so far. I think it's an underrated show but I don't watch a whole lot of TV shows so I can't compare/rank it very well.
Babylon Berlin. Top notch I say, top notch..
Critical acclaimed German series set in the aftermath of WW I leading through the Weimarer Republic up to the slow but steady rise of the Nazis (so far). Great narrative, actors, set pieces and artisitic vision. Very unique. I just started myself after watching one of the latest episodes from S4 by chance (my wife watched it all along) which was just pure perfection. I'm a bit biased since I'm from Berlin myself and it recreates that 20s up to 30s feeling of the city perfectly.

Why do you think it's underrated? It's generally very highly thought of, and its popularity increased with each passing season.
It's a great, great show. The whole cast is excellent, but Cillian Murphy is just wonderful in this.
I assumed it is underrated as people don't talk about it as much as some of the bigger TV shows. I think its been one of the better shows I've followed although I admit I haven't watched too many.
It’s excellent but the last few seasons were flat.
There's a dedicated thread on here, in general it was highly rated. It's a really great show!
Give it a try, it's really worth it in my opinion. I don't know about the English dub but I recommend watching it OV with subtitles if that's an option for you. The berlin dialect is really part of it.

Finished the Leftovers is morning. I liked the ending. It’s a bit like Lost. Decent show. Really enjoyed it.
Andor's the best show on TV right now imo. Which is kind of unbelievable.
I opened that and regretted it immediately.
I thought the first two series (which feel like one extended storyline) were excellent. The 3rd series was disappointing. I'm currently on episode 8 (I think) of series 4; which seems a lot better than series 3, if not as good as the first two. Charlotte Ritter is a fabulous character. Love the dancing in the first 2 series. Babylon Berlin is at its best when there's a mix of politics, police work, crime and dancing.
Series 4 is on Sky Atlantic, while all the earlier series are available on Sky box sets.
Think the first two seasons were filmed and designed as one but split up for whatever reason. Agree about Ritter although I like the whole cast so far. Bruch is a bit of a tool/nutter in real life though. The priest in the first or second episode s1 is a famous bouncer from berlin
