Daredevil S2.

@rhett7660 have you started yet? It's totally amazing and blew me away 100% - and as you know I absolutely loved the S1. 5 episdodes in and it's hands down even way better than the first season (!). They nailed the Punisher just pefectly. Wish they'd make a Punisher "mini" series now - would be the pinnacle of comic adaptions.

It's more grizly than the first season though so be prepared. Watched the five episodes twice so far. :D

One Batch, Two Batch. Penny and Dime.

We just binged it this weekend. HOLY SH*T!!!!!!!

Punisher = oh my. He is Frank in every aspect. It took me a few episodes to warm up to him but man, like you said, he nails it!
Electra = We liked her character a lot. Killer fight scenes!
KingPen = Yeah he is a big boy and is pretty cool. Liked him a lot
Stick = We so need more of him lol....

We loved this season and holy smokes the violence is off the charts! Bring on Season 3!

I am really looking forward to the Luke Cage, Iron Fist, and S2 of JJ! Marvel is killing it right now on Netflix!

Watching As Time Goes By. I've caught episodes here and there over the last 15 years, but haven't sat through the entire series from start to finish since its inception and ending. Good old time. :)

Just finished the second season of Daredevil and the sixth season of The Walking Dead. (pure binge watching).

Not binge watching, just watching (too good to wait for a complete season): Lucifer and the first two episodes of the final season of Banshee.

Just caught up with Limitless. Definitely recommend it. Waiting for the next episodes of Limitless and Game of Thrones.

Anybody know if there will be a Limitless Season 2?

No word on season 2 so far even though many other shows have already been renewed--hopefully it will be renewed though.

Finished As Time Goes By earlier. What a great series. Though I'm sure @Scepticalscribe wouldn't agree. I'd forgotten just how good Dame Dench's range of expression was. I remember catching a few episodes around the summer of 94 or 95, IIRC, on PBS and I found it hilarious. In the summer of 97, PBS began airing more British material and I'd seriously fallen in love with the show. But before that I'd seen other shows too.

Any suggestions?

Anybody saw The Night Manager with Tom Hiddleston? Just saw the first episode and thought it extremely good.

Also saw the first 2-3 episodes of Transparent but was quite dissapointed - the supporting characters are utterly boring, annoying and totally cliché'd - too bad, I had quite some hopes for it and Jeffrey Tambor is great as usual.

Ah, and why wouldn't I agree? (As it happens, I can't comment as I have never laid eyes on the show in question….)

It's a worthwhile show to explore, at least. There's soft spots in the story line and writing, and I hate the laugh track. But, the growing love and respect between the two main, mature characters is handled beautifully. They reacquaint after the Korean war had separated them.

The scenes from approx 15" to approx 23" are an example of the more than occasional wisdom shown. Just matter of fact statements expressed without excessive dramatization :

The gardening season looms, and the rest of long daylight during spring and summer goes to fabric selection and cutting for projects mulled over during winter, so at best I'll maybe ever finish House of Cards before winter comes around again. So far I think I actually prefer the original Brit version.

I say if they ever make a movie to follow up the series, it should be called "Don Draper Seduces Everybody" and end in an orgy of alcohol, hair product, and misogyny that causes the planet to implode.
