Those are some of my faves as well!
I love Game of Thrones, Orange is the new black (although I missed all of last season!) and I've gotten really into the 100 recently. Murphy and Lexa are my favourites there. I also watch Gotham.

Jeremy, I'm really excited about Twin Peaks too. Loved the original series and the weirdness of it. It shall be interesting to see how they are going to go about it now. I'll have to dig the box set out to catch up on all the characters! Lol!
I'm also excited about a BBC series called Taboo coming out this autumn I think. It's got Tom Hardy in it (whom I love) so I'll definitely be watching that!
It looks like we have some overlap in terms of TV shows.
So a suggestion: Please list TV shows you watch that you would want in a separate Topic/Thread of its own, and I can do a poll where people can vote on which TV shows they would like a separate thread for. It makes sense that in order to do a new thread of its own for a TV show, at least two people here watch it.
I could also create a new Topic/thread that is a a kind of "catch-all" of miscellaneous TV shows, the ones that folks are not real passionate about and will sporadically talk about. So there may be some threads for specific TV shows which at least two people here watch, as well as a thread for Miscellaneous TV shows (a "catch-all" for various TV shows).
For Me:
--TV Shows I would discuss in one thread for Miscellaneous TV Shows (so a "catch-all" thread for TV shows in general), since I'm not really passionate about these shows: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, Jane the Virgin, Modern Family, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and Supergirl
--TV Shows I would want to discuss in a separate Topic/thread of its own: The Flashdusty wrote:I'd love Darren to star on another TV show. Thought he was great on AHS.
He was good in it! He played an obnoxious, rude person well. And yes, I would love for Darren to be on another TV show, maybe one with a short season, or as a guest star.
BTW, I'll create a separate Topic/thread for SQ if Darren is on it, and any other TV show that Darren is in in this Category/Topic: Darren's TV Projects for 2016dusty wrote:

I'll give Twin Peaks a try too. I have to re-watch the original first 2 seasons, because it's been a while. I'm not sure how passionate I will be about the new season 3 until I see it, but we can always add a separate Topic/Thread for Twin Peaks later if at least 2 people want that.dusty wrote:I'm also excited about a BBC series called Taboo coming out this autumn I think.

Anyone else here a Tom Hardy fan? dusty, can you tell us a little about the plot of Taboo and when it's coming out (U.K? U.S.?)
Yes, he was great in AHS. I'd like him to play a villain once.
Taboo is about an adventurer (Hardy) who returns to Britain with stolen diamonds upon his father's death. He takes over his dad's shipping business and gets embroiled in drama regarding the East India Company. It's a mini series and looking at the trailer and the pictures it looks very dark and mysterious. It is set in the 1800s.
There are conflicting reports as to when it is being shown, some reports say this autumn others next year, so I don't know. It is written by Stephen Knight who writes Peaky Blinders and was developed from an idea by Hardy and his dad. There are lots of Game of Thrones actors in it and the german actress from Run Lola Run (one of my favourite films) is in it as well.
