My last series, The Americans was phenomenal, but that ended in 2018. I have not picked up any since then. [foilhat.gif]


I have no interest in Game of Thrones. That being said, what else can you recommend that is worthwhile and more than 1-2 seasons in length?

The Sopranos

Breaking Bad

And for dessert the Kominsky Method...only one short season but wicked funny.

I second Breaking Bad. I think it was the best series ever made. Well written and the acting was even better.

My wife loved Veep with Julia Louise-Dreyfus. I've seen several episode and it's wickedly funny and over the top.

My daughter just turned me on to Mindhunter on Netflix. It's about the FBI's establishment of the Behavioral Science Unit which helped
track serial killers. There's only 2 seasons so far but it's very good.

I've been watching Sacred Games on NetFlix, but it may be too Mumbai for you :lol:

I watched Breaking Bad several years ago, maybe it was in real time ... it feels that long ago.

However, for me, the best all time series was THE WIRE. The last season was not up to the first four, but a solid ending/wrap up epi and the first 3 years, the writing and character development was off the charts, imo.

Thanks for the suggestions. Tour finalization for PHT1 and PHT2 and newsletter for this weekend, took the last month of summer away from me, outside of a few wine nights out.

I will definitely watch some of your suggested series once I am back at the beginning of October.

My daughter told me there was a new season of Orange is the New Black, and it is the last (again!). I need to get past working on taxes to get time to sit and watch it after the next newsletter is completed. [foilhat.gif]
