The 5th on the list, which was in no particular order, is Breaking Bad. The wifey and I just rewatched it last month.

Think we may start BB from the start also. Missed a bunch of episodes in the first couple seasons when it was on AMC...Watch it up to where that guy shoots the kid.

The timing is perfect for you. Finish BB, watch El Camino, then start Better Call Saul. That’s my favorite current show

If you haven't watched it yet Better Call Saul has the same great storytelling style but  somewhat lighter subject matter.

I love Better Call Saul!  So good these days now that the timelines are converging

I'll throw out a few more.

True Detective (I've only seen season 1 & 2, 1 was amazing, 2 was good).

6 Feet Under

Better Call Saul is the best show going for fans of Breaking Bad, the storytelling is spectacular, characters are fantastic.

True Detective season 3 was a return to form.  Never reaches the heights of the first season, but way better than the trainwreck of season 2

Brother and his wife are both successful directors in Toronto and colossal snobs about what they watch. 

Surprising to me they both recommended The Watchmen as the best series on television. 

Haven't had time yet away from kids to watch it  Anyone watching it?

I watched it. Was ok, Didn't love it but liked it. I thought the Deuce which was on HBO the same night was better. If you are hoping it's as good as the film, it's not.

Ozark season 3 is currently my favorite show on TV. Just finished it last night, huge binge.

If you have HBO or Crave this show has its moments.

I forgot about The Deuce, it was interested when I saw the first trailers.

Thanks for the reminder.

Yes three was so morbid it was hard to watch. Season 2 was a trainwreck but this scene was great.
