People referencing Star Trek all the time when I moved over to Lemmy convinced me to start watching it and you really can't go wrong. Throw on some TNG
Not many shows both animated or live action make me express feelings (like outwardly I still feel happy and sad for the characters I just don’t show it) but that show made me cry a few times and also made feel really happy at times especially with the growth of the protagonist
One of the greatest television programs ever created. If you finish it and want more Deep Space Nine is even better. Voyager is good as well but a little more rough around the edges despite being shinier.
I disagree that DS9 is better. TNG generally maintained an episodic approach while DS9 switched into long seasonal arcs. I think it's reasonable to say it's preferencial. That said, Voyager gets better after they bring on Seven of Nine.
And if you're going to have access to Star Trek, check out Lower Decks. It's huge fun. Understanding the wall-to-wall references is a bonus but not required.
Ted Lasso. It's one of the best TV shows to come out in years. Apple TV is easily worth the price just for Ted Lasso, but Foundation and For All Mankind were good too.
The Rookie and Shogun on Hulu. Fallout and Psych on Prime.
I'll be honest, some of it can be off putting if you've not already apart of those circles. But I firmly believe that there's something for everyone, it's more of a medium than a genre.
Monster, Mushishi and Hunter x Hunter are great expectation busters.
Same thing for me !
I'm currently watching the season 2 of Critical Role on YouTube. It's not a TV show but it's high quality show for sure. It's a standalone campaign of Dungeon & Dragon. It's so good and there are so many hours of content !
Whenever I'm looking for something to watch I refresh my tumblr dashboard and start whatever I see first. spins proverbial wheel How about Steven Universe?
I'm also looking for this community. You can try !cineserie!cineseries@jlai.lu the instance is mostly french speaking but english speaker are welcome.
Have you tried asian drama? There is some very interesting story there as well as very bad one, but the cultural difference makes it always interesting for the westerner eyes (assuming you are western).
I would recommend the korean drama "Psychopath Diary" a hectic and hilarious thriller/comedy about a man who learn he's a serial killer after losing its memory but finding back his murder diary, and the chinese drama "Reset" a fantasy fiction where the character are stuck in a bus in a timeloop, their is a bomb in the bus but every time they hop of it to try to find there way out of the time loop, the police want to interrogate them about the bomb.
I finished two episodes, and I really hope that the interesting part is going to start. So far almost everything has been about how Cowboys are tough, gruff, brooding, and loyal to their families above all else. A couple of SF elements, but those have been incidental.
I really hope that it's going to do more than just mining the cowboy mythology and showing how rugged individualism is superior to government and corporations.
Honestly, they're all great: Shrek, Shrek 2, Shrek Forever After, the DreamWorks Spooky Tales, the Shrek 4-D experience at Universal. They're all good.
Same for me. I hated the first two episodes but by episode three I was ready for more. Not sure when it became my favorite show but it eventually happened.
