Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.

I've been rewatching my favorites (Mr. Robot, Andor, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul) and I'm curious: What is your favorite show of all time? What makes that your favorite?

The Expanse, Fringe, Malcolm in the Middle, Archer, GITS SAC, off the top of my head.

im partial to malcom in the middle, until we find out frankie muniz hangs out with people like joe arpaio, and a known conservative himself. i think in one interview he said he "dint like his co-stars political views, other than his"

Fringe doesn't get mentioned enough nowadays

Walter is one if the most dynamic characters in TV history IMO.

John Noble is amazing

I'm a big fan of sci Fi and the expanse does hit a lot of boxes. It's in my top few as well.

[–] lemmy_at_em@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I can definitely rewatch The Expanse every few years.

[–] SmoothOperator@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I've tried several times to get into it, but I can't seem to get over the acting being sort of second rate. It keeps pulling me out of the story.

I’m really hoping they do the Laconia story now that the requisite years have passed. Or at least enough that the actors will look correct.
