Chernobyl
The Americans
The Witcher



Man in the high castle - first few seasons were good. I couldn’t even watch the last season of a show I was invested in.

I would watch the other three you listed before The Witcher. The Witcher is fine but it's closer to a sci-fi original than GOT.

Kind of a jacked up face though. I think the only reason it has titties in it is so people won't feel like dorks for watching it.

The show is okay. I feel like it's not fleshed out quite enough. Also, the season didn't finish very well. I felt myself caring less about the characters at the end. By episode 10, I felt like I'd just watched a really intense season of Xena: Warrior Princess.

It peaked my interest enough to drop $15 on the Witcher 3. I’ve been playing that shite every night after getting my kids to bed for like 4-5 hours.

I started watching this and stopped on first episode due to queue anxiety. I dont really enjoy watching anything. I really just like filling up queues with stuff i will never have time to watch and deleting them when i forget why i wanted to watch them in the first place.

Interesting. I felt the exact opposite by the end. I was pretty confused about the timelines at the first and had a hard time keeping up for about 4-5 episodes.

finally understood the need for Cirri, Geralt, and Yennefer’s story line to merge at the final moments of the final episode. I DGAF about Yen till the last two episodes.

It's great! Toss them a coin! (You'll get it after you watch it)

Witcher is an easy binge with great tits and action.
I can’t imagine watching more than one episode of Chernobyl per week. That shows drains you.

The lack of WYHI threads about episode 1-3 Yennefer threads has been disappoint.

Would, FTR.

I’d do Chernobyl first because it’s quick and excellent, then hit Witcher before jumping into the much longer Americans. Witcher is awesome.

I think we will start Witcher tonight and save Chernobyl for a proper watch. Will probably buy the bluray for extras since there are few episodes.

Entire point of first season was to set up relationship between Geralt, Yennefer and Ciri.

Now the show can move on with those as the 3 that matter

The point of the first season of anything is to get people to want to watch it and future seasons by being entertaining and engaging. It was okay, and I may watch S2, but I'm not counting the days.

And yes, she has a jacked up face. They all have rocking gym bodies. I'm just not a fan of chicks with wide, bulbous noses. Deal with it.

This seems to be a bigger problem than deciding if you should watch The Witcher or not.

The Americans is one of the greatest television series of all time. Top five .

Chernobyl first.

Witcher is good. Like any new series is takes a few episodes to find its footing. Series is too short. Just when you get hooked, the series ends. 8 episodes isn't enough.

The Americans is the best show of the 4 you listed but also the longest. You can knock out both the witcher and chernobyl in a week.
