The only problem is you are only about 4 episodes behind. Not much of a binge.

I hope others have better suggestions then I did.

Especially the season with Mags and her "apple pie."

It's pretty delicious - it's not really moonshine since they sell it in a liquor store lol.

You can make a really nice cocktail with apple pie moonshine and hard (alcoholic) Ginger Ale (several brands out there but I like Henry's for that.)

I haven't seen the Killing though so I better rectify that situation.

started watching it when it began on A&E

life of a Wyoming sheriff.

The third season on amazon begins on April 21st. A great LA police procedural crime show based on tremendous novels written by Michael Connelly.

On Netflix... British show starring Gillian Anderson... and it is brilliant... it's like reading a novel that is unfolding in your imagination.

I like detectives but with humor.

Definitely nothing humorous about it but excellently written and acted.

You might like Midsomer Murder.... also on Netflix.... great murder/detective series.... a bit lighter. One of my favorites.

We are now watching Midsomer Murders for the second time. Foyle's War is amazing...a detective show set during WW II. We never watched much TV but now it keeps us going.

I got them from Netflix. What a wonderful series. Hated to see it end.

Learned so much history from it. Michael Kitchen is fabulous as Foyle...we will be watching it again.

Love Michael Kitchen! I hated when it ended as well!

I thought it was excellent.

I just saw that you like some humor... Did you catch Trial and Error? It was hilarious!

Doc Martin is a British television medical comedy drama series starring Martin Clunes. It's set in a wonderful
seaside village. I just learned they will be making an 8th and 9th Season.

One of the best things on TV, IMHO.

You will NOT be disappointed!!

particularly the meth-fueled rendition of Henry V. Absolutely stellar.

And Watson grousing through the letter box in the one about the Chinese circus.

I remember seeing the very first episode, the scene where the two of them met...I was grinning all over my face--hooked for the duration, right there.

I know my friends who are diehard fans of the books prefer the episodes that focus more on cases, but for me the attraction was always the interaction between the two of them. Another favorite scene was Sherlock, back from the dead, posing as a waiter (Surprise us! I'm certainly endeavoring to.).

Ah, good times. I fear it is over though--they wrapped a lot of plot lines and didn't have a cliffhanger this time.

( sigh)

Tina Fey writer!

Bellevue
Broadchurch
The Night Of

I don't know if it is available on Amszon Prime. MI-5 was called Spooks in the UK. It is a pretty good show.

I finished it a few months ago.

Is it still on?

I think that they are still on and I think that it is actually 10 seasons. ITunes only has the first 8 seasons.

we will eat house of blues copy cat shrimp and grits...and binge watch! Perfect Friday.

all 10 seasons of MI-5 on Hulu.

The title refers to one particular character, but really it's about a Chicago law firm, it's up and downs, and the various people it defends. Lots of courtroom scenes and lots of legal and personal maneuvering. The series ended but the complete series is available on CBS All Access.

Also, its sequel, The Good Fight, is on CBS All Access. The first 5 episodes are available now with a new one every Sunday.

I tuned in.

Thank heavens for Major crimes. Saw the Good wife listed below, really excellent as well as the Good Fight. But I also loved the last 2 seasons of Fargo. Season 3 is starting in April.

... stars Steven Van Zandt, and even though it's unrelated, I just can't help not seeing this show as Silvio Dante from the Sopranos family in witness protection in Norway. It's ironically hilarious...

Medical dramas I like.. Code Black and Chicago Med...

Set in Australia in the 1920's.

Most of them are no longer being aired....Justified, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, etc...I'd have to add "Sons of Anarchy" to the general main list as posted by most in this thread (interesting how many of the suggested shows are on either FX or AMC!).

Maybe "Better Call Saul" will be up the OP's alley....spin-off of Breaking Bad. Drama with humor.

Current shows I have enjoyed are Preacher (definitely a unique blend of humor and drama, and very off- beat). I think "The Americans" is among the best shows ever, and is currently on the air - "Preacher" is available (first season) on FX on Demand (I think it's free on-line?). The second season is coming up soon.

"Taken" has caught my attention. Lots of intense drama, but no real humor. "Prison Break" is being "resurrected"...(like "24" with "24 Legacy&quot ...but unlike "24", it's coming back with the same cast. I also like the fact that "Prison Break" doesn't go on indefinitely - it's a story with a beginning, middle and end. I looked forward to the new episodes (always had "cliffhanger" endings weekly) and was sort of sorry it came to an end. But if they can match the writing of the first story, this redux would seem likely to be very good as well.

The New York Times said of the original "24" when it first came on the air that it "may be the greatest TV show ever" (to paraphrase ...close as I can remember, anyway)

The sequel has been good, but not quite on par with the original...but it may get better after the characters are developed. The original had Keifer Southerland (now in "Designated Survivor" which is surprisingly good for a network show IMO) - and it had a mind blowing tfirst episode that may never be matched (also the most intense scene in another episode (likely in another "day&quot that I've ever seen on TV when "Jack" had to kill a friend and a coworker - who knew what was coming - in order to prevent a massive terror attack. He closed his eyes and said "God help me" and pulled the trigger. A big shock since it seems the good guys always figure out a way to get around the demands of terrorist. Not that time!!

The most watched TV show right now is "The Walking Dead" - and it's understandable why.... zombie show that's about far more than zombies...IMO an ongoing series of stories and back-stories about society and sociology and philosophy...(Zombie show for grownups).....some humor, but not like Breaking Bad (one of my all-time favorites).

AMC seems to have some of the best series of the past decade or so...less censorship and greater opportunity to "stretch the envelope". (Breaking Bad among their hits).

It was created by Garry Trudeau, both funny and well done, one of my favorites - keep hoping they'll come up with another season!

I have seen on television!!!

Vera, DCI Banks, new Sherlock Holmes. others.
There is a service called ACORN that has them.

Kind of the grandpappy of ensemble cop shows. It definitely had its humorous moments, and the ensemble was great.

It's weird watching it now and realizing that law enforcement apparently thought Howard Hunter was the very model of what a policeman should be.

Some of the latter episodes are gold.
