In order that I have enjoyed shows in the past year:
- The Expanse. A new space opera. The best since BSG, and maybe only second to that overall.
- Please Like Me, Season 2. Funniest show ever about a young gay man facing rejection, death, and mental illness. All the usual ingredients of comedy.
- Homeland Season 5. As a supposedly liberal intellectual I think I'm supposed to not like this show. But I do. Probably the best season since the first.
- Man in the High Castle. From the Phillip K Dick novel, about an alternate history where the Nazis and Japanese win WWII.
- Jessica Jones. Emotionally disturbed superheroes and villains. The best take on the genre.
I have yet to watch Narcos but I plan to. The only people who don't seem to like this are Colombians, who think they got the history right but are angry that Escobar is played by a Brazilian.
What do you recommend?
