Thought we may as well get this one up and running as we have one for Films which can be found here - Film Discussion

I've recently watched the following...

Travelers - 7/10

I like the story behind this show but felt as if something could have been done a bit better, not too sure what but something...

Westworld - 5/10

Was expecting a lot from this show due to the hype it received but honestly I wasn't that keen on it, I found it a bit confusing and felt like it didn't really have any solid storyline to it. I gave it a 5 due for these reasons plus season 2 doesn't come out until next year!

Nice initiative sauron.
Show's I'm watching now:

Supernatural - 9/10
I really love this show, it does have it's ups and downs like most shows do, but the good parts are just so worth it, one of my favorite shows of all time.

Gotham - 8/10
A great show, wasn't sure what to expect when I first started watching it, but I really liked it and the characters in the show play their roles really well. I think it's a great concept and it tells us a little bit more about all the batman characters before they grow up.

Scream: The TV Series - 9/10
Just started watching this when I saw it on netflix, got hooked right away. I found it humorous, clever and very entertaining. I don't think season 3 is confirmed yet, but I really do hope they last a lot more seasons.

Got plenty more, but i think this is a good start.

I also watch all 3 of those shows and agree with you although I feel Supernatural is dragging on a bit and they always seem to go off the point onto something that is a lot smaller than the big problem they have at that time.

I could never get into Supernatural. It just seemed to basically repeat it self each week. I do like Gotham though, and I hadn't heard of Scream the TV series. I will have to give that a try. As for Westworld, I really wanted to enjoy it, but it just isn't what I was expecting. I was expecting it to be more like Lost. Confusing but addictive.

I see what you mean about Supernatural, it's still something I would say is watchable.

You should watch the Scream TV Series it's not too bad :)

The OA - 8/10

Just finished watching this, it's a strange one but interesting at the same time. It's one of those series that starts of with something happening and then backtracks on the lead up to it. Worth a watch!

Yes, that's exactly how i feel too. I hate when they get off point, except for some episodes, where they play themselves for instance, that one was golden.
I've also been told that Westworld was a most watch, but I've seen the trailer (or some clips, not sure if it's for me tbh).

Other shows I'm watching atm:

Mr. Robot - 8/10
Since I like computers, hacking (not that I can do it myself) and stuff like that, I was very intrigued to watch this show. I've only watched season 1, but i'll soon start on season 2 now that all the episodes are out.
How I feel about season 1: There's a lot going on, all at the same time, I've yet to see a boring scene. It's a bit of a "mindfudge" show, which is something I like. If you like computers, hacking and a show that is unpredictable, then it's worth a watch for sure.

Black Sails - 8/10
I really like this show, it is more like a chess game then just jumping into a fight. I think the characters play their roles really well and I like that they've kept it how things probably was back in that time period. It's about pirates and an island, don't think I should say much more then that.

Narcos - 8/10
This was another show I started watching out of the blue, I really loved it in the beginning, but there's a couple of things I'm not too sure about. It is based on Pablo Escobar's life, so maybe most of the things actually did happen, but I didn't really get why it would take so long. Anyways, Really like the characters, Wagner Moura playing Escobar does a wonderful job and for me he carries half of the show really. So not sure how much I'll like the next season. Ive only watch season one and two.

Yeah that episode was awesome! The comedy they introduced made it good.

I'm yet to watch Narcos but I have watched Black Sails and half way through season 2 of Mr Robot.

Mr Robot is a bit confusing sometimes and I feel it's one of those TV Shows that you have to watch when you're not tired as it needs concentration. It is a good show though but I prefer Black Sails over it I would say.

Goliath - 6.5/10

I've got 2 episodes left of season 1, It's not a bad show but something I wouldn't rate as highly as it is on IMDB as not much goes on with it. I really only started watching it because I thought Billy Bob Thorton was really good in Fargo and although he is a good actor the show doesn't have the action it needs to make it more enjoyable to watch.
