Has anyone mentioned The Expanse yet? Syfy is finally getting it's roots back. Though seriously, I'm dying for the next season of Killjoys.
Good TV

BBC's London Spy. it kept my attention throughout.

@tragedyjones
It was really good. I'm looking forward to seeing more about A.L.I.E and the Ice Nation of the Grounders. -
@Bobotron I am looking forward to how Crazy Jaha can go, and how many people will die in horrible CW-expectation defying ways.
-
I've been looking forward to the 100 coming back. For a show that started off as barely mediocre, it really picked up in its second season to become one of my favorites.

Doublepost re: @tragedyjones
Jaha + A.L.I.E reminded me of BS Galactica's nr 6 in action.

I find that The 100 is a very emotionally taxing show. It used to be that Game of Thrones occupied that space; but it has since fallen by the wayside. During the second season of The 100 I felt like I had to get ready to watch an episode--to watch a whole bunch of people do some really fucked up shit for sympathetic (or not) reasons and just destroy each other far more deeply than other shows. It's not that what they do is that much worse or definitive or morally ambiguous--but the way in whicht hey manage to show it eclipses a lot of other shows for some fucking weird reason I can't pinpoint.
I remember @tragedyjones kept asking me if I'd watched the episodes and I was like, "not yet," not because of disinterest, but because I knew they would be devastating. That doesn't happen to me very often.

@Coin Wtf, the 100? I only watched the first episode or two but it looked shallow as hell, pretty kids with very clean teeth in a jungle playing at being badass survivors. Maybe I need to give this another shot.

And maybe read the quotes above what I just posted by other people. I wasn't just talking in a vacuum:

You have to make it past the first half of the first season--but it gets pretty intense.
I think it really helps that the show gives its romantic subplots jussssst enough rope to hang themselves with, and not an inch more.
-
The 100 starts as a young adult dystopian post apocalyptic CW show. Then it defies expectations in so many ways.
-
I think most shows take half a season to figure out who/what it really is. Once they get it rolling, things settle into place and everything improves.

Unless it doesn't because the show sucks ballz. <.<

That's true. There's lots of those too.
-
@Arkandel
The 100 really picks up really in episode 3. There's an instant when you see what two of these kids DO to each other that was just like 'oh... shitballs, WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST WATCH?!'And it only goes downhill from there. It goes from an expectation of like, 90210 Post Apocalypse to Post-Apocalypse real quick. It also helps that a LOT of the kids are actual criminals, some with sociopathic and psychopathic tendencies (HI MURPHY!)

Mad Dogs on Amazon is pretty damned good too! I'm about three episodes in good acting and story.

Ever seen Terriers?
It's by the same people and on Netflix. It's a one-season wonder, but it at least has a decent ending.

@Three-Eyed-Crow I haven't! I'll check it out!
