    My aren't you a wealth of TV info. And it's all good, thanks man.

    Yeah Dexter turned into such a dumpster fire. I stopped watching mid way through the season with John Lithgow as the baddie. By then everything that had made the first season so unexpected and engaging was gone. I didn't see the finale but after reading about it that's a good thing.

    I've never heard of Southland but taking your recommendations to heart and d/l'ing as we speak. Good timing because I just finished The Boys -- only worth watching for Urban's English accent IMO -- and have been casting around for my next watch.

    I have a recollection of The Shield falling flat for me and I know I've checked out OZ but can't for the life of me recall it, maybe I'll give it another look.

    Speaking of cop shows have you checked out Bosch? I'm a big fan of the books and the casting of the lead is absolutely dead on. Seasons 1-3 are some great storytelling, but 4 & 5 starts to feel tired.

    In the same vein are The Killing, The Fall, and The Bridge (both the US remake and the original Swedish?). All great, compelling viewing IMO.

    Rubicon was an amazing spy/intrigue show, unfortunately they only did one season which is especially upsetting given all the set up they did.

    What is the name of the German P&R show? That's something I'd love to see, hopefully I can find it with subs.

    Never heard of Z Nation or Captive State but have added them to the list. Thanks!

    The Strain is a tad rough around the edges but good story telling and I always enjoy Corey Stoll. It's hard to make a show about vampires and have it feel fresh but they manage it in spades. Still haven't seen season 5 though so maybe they mess it up, hope not.

    I have to mention Los Espookys in case it didn't hit your radar. One of the most fun, dumbest shows to come along in forever. Call it a guilty pleasure but I enjoy the heck out of that show. Angie Tribeca was also a lot of fun but they should have stopped after one season.

    I'm trying not to get excited about Watchman -- too high expectations and all that.
