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

[–] Lemmchen@feddit.de 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Hey, I've just started with TNG today!

[–] HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Hope you love it. It picks up a shit ton after season 2 so stay with it

Thanks! I searched watch, stream, series, ... didn't think of movies or tv.

[–] simple@lemm.ee 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Don't use moviesandtv@lemmy.film, the entire instance closed down and that community's been abandoned.

Dropout.tv is what I dropped Netflix for and I absolutely don't regret it. They do Dimension 20 dnd shows as well as a number of comedy and skit shows. You can generally find a lot of the stuff on Youtube.

[–] Worx@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 6 months ago

Seconded, much cheaper than Netflix as well. Game Changer is so good, some of the D20 is good (especially Abria's (is that how you spell it) seasons), Breaking News is sometimes really good and sometimes whiffs hard for me.

I tend to subscribe for a couple of months and then cancel, something which the CEO recommends. Also recommends password sharing with friends. Also pays and treats workers well (according to their own advertising). Mainly left leaning outlook without being overtly political which I like.

Second this. Severance is the only show I’ve ever watched that had me yelling at the TV by the end.

Clarksons farm. I do enjoy some farming content

[–] Today@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

I love that! Someone just told me to watch the Belushi weed farm show.

[–] Lemmchen@feddit.de 7 points 6 months ago (3 children)

I've just started Star Trek The Next Generation for the first time. It holds up surprisingly well for a show from 1987.

If you like anime I recommend “To your eternity”

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

The Princess Bride, silent movie comedies like Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplain, or nature docs are my go to sick watches

[–] Today@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Thanks. I saw the princess bride recently in a theater with cary elwes q&a. Was super fun!

[–] squirrelwithnut@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.

It is. I watched it with my daughter when s1 came out, and it was well beyond just tolerable, which is the baseline for kids shows. Good story, well acted, great animations, good music.

  • Conan O'Brien Must Go S01
  • THEM S02
  • Sugar S01
  • Tokyo Vice S02
[–] Today@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Oh wow! I didn't know season 2 of them was out! Thanks!

ETA - Them.... I was thinking of From.

I watched the trailer for Sugar and it looks good. Starting that as soon as i finish Outer Range.

[–] TotallyNotSpez@lemm.ee 4 points 6 months ago

Tokyo Vice is one of the best shows I've seen in years. Defo worth checking out. Enjoy.

[–] Cashmere@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

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 !

[–] beefbaby182@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Better Call Saul!

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.

sex drive. way funnier than expected.

the mist, series or show are worth a watch

FROM. season 3 coming soon, 1 and 2 are so creepy and dark.

dark, German creepy/mystery show. really good

I'm thinking of ending things - cool movie, main actress is really good, had blonde kid from breaking bad, also good.

true detective season 1 or 4

Fargo, movie or series, both well done

For anime, Frieren has been pretty good. About halfway through so far.

[–] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Try Diary of An Apothecary.

[–] Toes@ani.social 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The instance I'm from is about anime.

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.

[–] ConstantPain@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Monster, not to be confused with Re:Monster. Please don't!

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Netflix? Prime?

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

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?
