I know it's only tangentially-related to this sub, but I found it interesting that this was getting made.
I know in previous interviews Bryan Fuller wanted to bring Clarice into his series to hunt down Will and Hannibal, but it looks like that ship has sailed (even his choice for casting, Ellen Page, would've been difficult to do nowadays, since it's Elliot Page now).
Anyway, I wish the show good luck. Apparently they are not allowed to bring up Hannibal at all (for the same reasons we are all aware of), so let's see what comes out it.
Edit: Spelling
And will the Clarice Starling have its own subreddit now?
Finally finished my fan casting and crewing for the in-development Gormenghast TV series, including ideas about the episode distribution. Any thoughts?

With 20+ episode seasons and more or less self contained episodes? I like Discovery but there is a distinct difference between that show and the trilogy of shows I mentioned. Is the landscape just too different now?
-
Battle of the Bastards from 'Game of Thrones' - Definitely one of the greatest TV episodes ever created!
-
Something's Coming (the tornado episode) from 'Desperate Housewives' - Goosebumps rush every time I remember what happened in this episode. It was excellent from the beginning till the end.
-
The One Where Everybody Finds Out from 'Friends' - One of the funniest episodes, IMO. Clever writing, very entertaining episode.
-
eps3.4_runtime-err0r.r00 from 'Mr. Robot' - This is the episode where it was shot and made in a way that makes it look like a 44 minute one-shot long take. A true masterpiece!
I'm curious if you guys have a similar thing. It's not life-changing, it's just amazing that I've never realized it's completely ADHD.
I love series. I watch them all the time.
Cause some series is always on in the background when I'm doing something else. Cause other things are soooo boring! It's my productive solution, trust me.
But: I LOATHE starting a new show. Even when I know it will be amazing.
If it's recommended, I'll make 3-4 attempts at starting before I get hooked in.
If it's something that interests me personally, I won't get hooked in until I accidentally stumble upon it the 8th time and finally watch more than 20min.
I just realised this huge part of my life is cause I get lost with all the new characters, the new plot is complicated and I'm not used to the new dynamic!
Don't know about you guys, but I don't like to come to those ADHD conclusions. I'm not dumb. And they make me feel very dumb.
Edit: Wow, afterferthought: same with books.
Hi guys, i ve just finished my session of exams for this year and now i have a lot of spare time. I ve decided to start watching a tv series, but I don’t know which one to choose.
Series like Breaking Bad and Peaky (fookin) Blinders are my favorite because of the action and cleverness involved, Walter and Tommy are both badasses but they’re so damn smart. I am looking something like this.
I was thinking at:
- Better Call Saul: i ve started watching it but then stopped at the 1st season i think, it was slow and didn’t attract me as much as breaking bad
- The 100: i know it has nothing to do with the series I mentioned above, but i read the plot and noticed that surely there will be a lot of action, maybe some strategy as well (in terms of decision making to manage the extreme situation in which they are)
Should i watch them in your opinion? Btw feel free to advice me new tv series that can fit that mixture of action and cleverness
(Anyway i ve also liked GoT and stranger things)
Between my primary media consumption being video games for my entire childhood and university taking up most of my time once I moved out, I really haven't watched any Netflix or TV in general over the past 10 years. Maybe a few movies with friends when I visited theirs, but that's about it. Since I'm going into grad school in the fall I was thinking maybe now is the time to get into Netflix and watch some of the great stories I may have missed out on.
For all intents and purposes, consider me completely spoiler-free on pretty much every series on TV and Netflix, give or take. I don't know what happens in pretty much any Netflix series' or most TV shows' plots beyond the general premise of the show. I found I have a broad array of interests when it comes to movies, so genre isn't an issue for me and pretty much any recommendation is fair game.
What do you think are those must watch (or just generally amazing - even if niche) series on Netflix I should look into? I'm on Canadian Netflix but have access to a VPN, if that matters for your choices.
EDIT: Wow. I really didn't expect this to get a lot of reception, but thank you all so much!!! I have a lot of things to catch up on it seems and I'll definitely be referencing this list for a long-time!
