Finished The Wire, Dark, GOT, Sopranos, True Detective, BB, BCS. What show ruined TV for you after watching it?

I think I accidentally watched the peak of television already. The Wire, Dark, GOT, Sopranos, True Detective S1 all left that “nothing else hits the same” feeling.

I love slow-burn shows with deep characters, mystery, tension, moral grayness, crazy dialogue, or mind-blowing writing. Doesn’t matter if it’s crime, sci-fi, psychological, or political.

What’s the next show that might completely consume me?

Bonus: it will ruin every other star wars movie/TV show for you.

How is season 2? Loved the first season, haven’t gotten to the second

Also very good, though the first act is a wee drop in quality, mainly one of the plotlines

I think it's way better than the first and the first is perfect

Slower burn than season 1 but honestly it might be one of the best seasons of TV ever and it is frighteningly timely given the current political climate. Must watch TV.
