For some odd reason I went through Jeeves and Wooster in the last two weeks and it makes me want to read Wodehouse novels. But then it all gets counterbalanced by The Wire, so I don't know what my motivation of late has been.

So I just finished burning through the first season of Hannibal and enjoyed it quite a bit, but I was reading the American Gods thread that maybe the other two seasons aren't as good (or maybe just season 3 wasn't as good). Any opinions on whether or not it's worth going through the other two seasons or not?

VVVV
Good to hear; I was worried it was going to take a sharp downward plunge like Dexter or something.

I would say the first season of Hannibal is generally considered the worst? It's the most procedural-y and least weird for sure. Seasons 2 and 3 are both excellent imo. Some don't like the first half of 3 but that's my personal favourite section of the entire show.
I didn't mind the procedure crime drama stuff and it was a nice mixture with the other bizarre poo poo going on and the random comedians showing up (Scott Thompson, what are you doing in a drama?!). But it's good to hear that it doesn't really get lovely.

Finally got around to watching the first season of Fargo and while I enjoyed it, what with the dark humor and character development....some plot threads just kinda died or went nowhere and the ending was just a bit of a wet fart. Did most people enjoy the ending when it first came out?

Ray loving Purchase!
'Bon Jo-vi, Madame Ga-ga, and The Coldplay' is such an amazingly delivered line or pretty much any time he fucks with Ray Purchase or Ray's wife; it's a solid show.

Yeah I'd never heard of it but I'm all about some Matt Berry. Watching it now!
I would also say that Snuff Box might be worth a watch if you enjoy Matt Berry but it's also dependent if you can stand Rich Fulcher, cause his schtick can not be for everyone.

So I just finished up Vice Principals and quite enjoyed it, but I was wondering if Eastbound and Down has a similar feel to it. I kinda stayed away from it cause pretty much every scene I saw had Danny McBride just being an insufferable rear end in a top hat to everyone and while his character in Vice Principals is an rear end, he's at least growing as a character and tries to not be a massive poo poo all the time. So how does Eastbound compare?

Also Dark was a super enjoyable watch, beautifully shot, and I do look forward to a second season to see where else it goes.

I might give a season a try to see how it is; I mostly just worried that it was going to be Kenny Powers being a washed up dick and awkward situations.

If you’re worried about that, unless you’re watching re-runs of shows you did like, watch something else.
It mostly came to mind cause I did quite enjoy Vice Principals and was wondering if it'd be worth giving a shot. I mean there's always other random stuff to watch, like I heard mixed things about Stan Against Evil and I figured that might tide me over till season 3 of Ash vs. Evil Dead (though I don't mean to turn this thread into a general opinion or feedback on any given tv show).

Luther was a pretty good comedy; I remember in series 1 where he just goes ape-poo poo and rips apart an office in the police station and people were just cool with it cause he was a detective genius. Or when he was stalking his ex-wife and people let it slide cause he was a good cop who would go crazy everywhere and solve some crimes or let murderers go free.
