Red Phoenix Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 # Fargo (all 4 seasons are great, but the first season is absolutely epic) # After Life (by and with Ricky Gervais - hilarious and at same time deeply human and touching) # True Detective (with Woody Harrelson, say no more) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FruitPudding Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I went with three comedies. In no particular order: Curb your Enthusiasm Frasier Still Game Loved Game of Thrones til they messed up the last few seasons. Friends and Breaking Bad, excellent too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am surprised they are as popular with the masses as they are. I assume it is escapism from their boring mundaine lives? They do bring in huge money. Just actors acting fake dramas. Nonsense really. Give me a documentry and real knowledge. I think irrelevant posts are a complete waste of time 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibeachlovers Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 (edited) Mine are all anime ( Violet Evergarden etc ), which would be of minimal interest to most farangs. Far as western series go: The ones that I just had to watch ( most of the ITV stuff- Morse, Frost, Poirot etc ) in no particular order. Blake's 7 The Avengers, but only in black and white, went stupid in colour. China Beach. Many more, but the OP asked for 3.

The Prisoner was interesting if somewhat barking. McGoohan was a great actor but never, IMO, sufficiently recognised as such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Troughton was IMO the best Doctor, and his sidekick Wendy Padbury had to be the cutest companion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The woke wouldn't like it up them, for sure. Great series. The American alternative, MASH started off well and very NOT PC, but eventually went woke, like most long running American sitcoms. I never liked It aint half hot at the time, but later on more so. Never liked allo allo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thaibeachlovers Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 58 minutes ago, westsail said: Game of Thrones 24 The Honeymooners Burn & Allen Amos& Andy 24 was an excellent series. I have all the DVDs, but doubt I'll get to rewatch them again. LOST was excellent till the ending which was a monumental fail. I loved St Elsewhere, and that series started many well known actors careers. I bought my first VDO recorder at HUGE expense so I'd never miss an episode of Hill St Blues. Mary Tyler Moore show- loved it, along with millions. Space 1999. Battlestar Galactica- NOT the original series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched it on tv when it came out and again on DVD more recently- just got better, and not dated at all. Baker was excellent as the crazy American and Peck could not be bettered. Then Gibson made a rubbish movie out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
