I've watched the Mick, the ranch, suits and Westworld so far. I've started watching preacher and justified.

I've liked those so based on that do you have any suggestions?

Basically start with Breaking Bad, then Better Call Saul and report back.

Others that are my favs are
24
Battlestar Gallactica
Lost
Game of Thrones
Silicon Valley
Shameless
Bates Motel
The Walking Dead
Sons of Anarchy
Weeds
The Office
Dexter
Californication
Prison Break
Eastbound and Down season 1 is the funniest thing ever.

Eta:The Sopranos
Heroes
Smallville
Entourage

There are a bunch of good ones that I probably left off. I'm not as big of a fan of The Wire as everyone else is.

A while back I tried watching game of thrones and couldn't get into it. I also heard about better call Saul before breaking bad and tried watching the first 2 episode and didn't like it either.

Absolutely loved the whole East bound and down series. I watched it about 2 years ago.

Will look into the others you named!

The Wire is the best thing ever filmed. It's a little deprssing because it doesn't offer any answers but as a portrait of a decaying American city in the 21st century it is sublime. And at times hilarious.

I like Justified more.

But I'm a huge Elmore Leonard fan,


OP: check out Psych. You are welcomed.

Better Call Saul is a prequel to Breaking Bad if you're unaware for some reason. I've heard of people watching BCS first and enjoying it, but I have to think watching BB first makes it much better.

Never heard of supernatural watched a few episodes of always sunny in Philadelphia, it's was pretty good. Something I would watch occasionally. I've gotten accustom to binge watching series. Like Westworld, it got my attention and I watched the season in about 2 weeks. Usually watch on my phone when I'm in the hotel for work. The ranch got my attention too but that was something I watched when I was at home with the wife. She's the one that got me hooked on suits, I didn't watch the whole series because she had already started and it was something she watched at night while putting the baby to sleep.

I might try game of thrones again to see why I didn't care for it.

Sounds like you'd love Big Bang Theory. I'd also suggest 2 Broke Girls.

Big bang is good for a laugh. 2 broke girls, more so annoying..

Suits is really good. Towards the middle of season 5 it starts to try to get too serious through most of season 6. It's not bad, just not as good IMO.

2 broke girls is the worst writing I've ever watched on a show

I'm an idiot for leaving out Heroes and The Sopranos.

Eta: Also Smallville.

Rome and Deadwood are great too unless you're one of those cocksuckers offended by profanity. For a while there HBO was knocking it out of the park with every swing.
