The First Kingdom. The Bastard Executioner is somewhat similar as well.

Into the Badlands is starting tonight, and that looks like it has quite a bit of potential.

The Expanse (Syfy Channel debuts Dec 14)- Looks interesting , I'll record it, but based on my history with SyFy Channel shows, I'll keep my expectations low.

They are also supposed to have Childhood's End around the same time.

We are currently binging on "The Flash." What a great freaking show! We are half way through season one.

Where are you watching that?

I did not realize this was a CW Network Show. Found it on Netflix (thanks @rhett7660 and @c8rlo for the leads), 2 episodes in. I'm really enjoying the vibe. It reminds me of Spiderman. :) My impression the 3rd season is current?

I had played several WWII combat games, Call of Duty or Medal of Honor, and one of the missions was to disable artillery implacements, so I was surprised when BoB was revealed to provide the source material.

Watched Episode 1 of The Man in The High Castle an interesting alternate reality story (story written by Philip Dick) on Amazon Prime where the West lost WWII, Germany dropped the bomb somewhere in the U.S. (I think), the U.S. is divided between Japan in the West and Germany in the East, it takes place in the 1962 (when the novel wa published), and the significant twist, a news real is discovered by the resistance, showing the West won the war. So... Wha? ;)

Good enough to keep watching! Only 2 episodes have been released, all will be released on 20Nov2015.

First two episodes, thumbs up! Watching brown shirts and swastica, SS clad uniformed, all Americans sitting down to family breakfast is kinda hard to take, even if it is fiction. ;) Not sure what the source of the news real is, if it is a subversive film designed to undermine or supposed to be a reflection of an alternate reality. If you are familiar, please don't spoil. All set to pick this up on 20 Nov, Amazon Prime.

2nd Season currently w/ 6 episodes, glad ur enjoying it!!!

I'm really enjoying the relative light atmosphere of The Flash (although people die), instead of the dark of Batman, although the last Batman trilogy with Christian Bale was excellent as compared to what came before that. Excellent CGI, likeable characters, still trying to pin point what sinister game Dr. wells is playing. No spoilers, please! :p

Everyone go watch the first episode of Jessica Jones on Netflix. I was hooked immediately.

Will do! :)

About 8 episodes into The Man in the High Castle (Amazon Prime Original Series). It's drab and dreary, where some real intrigue of this alternate reality seems to be squandered, but I'm still watching. :)

The end of season 1 (10 episodes) was surreal, as in WTH? The films that are being smuggled by the resistance showing alternate outcomes of WWII is the hook to this series. An article online spoke how hard it is to bring Philip Dick stories to the screen. Outstanding old Hitler. However I'll say no more unless someone starts a dedicated thread. :) It's unknown if there will be a season 2.

I watched the first episode for free on iTunes the other day and liked it. I think the show has good promise. Plus I'm hearing good things about it from Phil Plait, who received a press kit of it with the first 4 episodes.
