    A good tv show to watch/binge?

    Just finished watching Breaking Bad. I'm currently watching The Blacklist and GoT but I want to watch another show as well.

    Tried Arrow, didn't like it. I've read about Hannibal. I really like Mads Mikkelsen as an actor, but is the show worth it?

    What about Dexter, or Homeland? Any other recommendations?

    Dexter's good if you don't want to watch a show past the fourth season.

    Big Bang Theory, Seinfeld, Office are some comedy options.

    For cheesy Scifi there is Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek TNG, Stargate Franchise. Firefly and Terra Nova were 1-seasoners.

    Lost & Fringe if your into the supernatural genre.

    Entourage, finish the series and get ready for the movie that's coming out soon. One of my favorite shows of all time.

    I've watched about every good tv series out there, so I can reccomend a few. Gonna try to put these in an order of best to last in my personal opinion. Game of Thrones, Dexter, Walking Dead, Boardwalk Empire, Hannibal, Vikings, Mad Men, Bates Motel, Continuum, The Killing, The Blacklist. Of course you've already watched my favorite though :P. Keep in mind, most of these have multiple seasons out, but also are still actively being produced. Oh! You have to watch Better Call Saul if you liked Breaking bad.

    It's an interesting take on real America, something a lot of people don't know much about. It's about people who vote.

    And it's very funny.

    Despite the fact that I usually don't really like cop shows, I'm currently binge-watching the remake of hawaii five-0. Haven't made it till the end yet, but so far I'm really liking it.

    Homeland is decent. The story is some times questionable, but Damian Lewis as Brody may be one of the best castings I have ever seen.

    Try something a bit different and give Fate/Zero a try.

    Then move on to Fate/Stay Night when Zero blows you away.

    The Wire is the best TV show ever made.

    Better Call Saul is great, especially since you said you finished Breaking Bad. I would also recommend Prison Break and i would most definitely recommend House of Cards (if you have Netflix). Homeland is another great one.

    I would say as long as you are watching GoT, Walking Dead, House of Cards and Homelands you at least have something different to watch each time you choose to do so. So many great shows are out there, except they mirror another show so closely that it isnt even worth watching (Falling Skies would be an example).

    I watched the entirety of Falling Skies in 2 days. It was awesome. I strongly suggest it.
    I come across a quiet river, that wonders through the trees.
    I stare into its running waters and fall unto my knees.
    In resignation to the forest, that's held me for so long.
    I close my eyes and drift away into nature's evensong.

    100% if he didnt watch that already.

    And if you are done with it there are some others who are similar but dont come close.

    These three shows alone will give you a week of heavy binge watching.

    I'm a big horror fan, and Loved reading the Hannibal series. The tv show however leaves a lot to be desired. The first few episodes are good, but it goes downhill fast.

    Dexter was good
    Walking Dead
    Vikings
    HBO's Sopranos
    HBO's Deadwood
    HBO's Oz
    Sons of Anarchy
    HBO's Six Feet Under
    HBO's Carnival
    American Horror Story (season 2 kinda sucked, the rest are great)
    The Tudors (This is a lot like GoT)
