I just finished Bridgerton. What am I going to watch next?


Options:

  • Watch Rush (because Tom Ellis (10 eps))
  • Watch Merlin (65 eps)
  • Finish shows I'm behind on (listed by number of eps I need to watch to catch up):
    • The Expanse (season 5, 10 eps; season 6 isn't out yet and will be the final season)
    • American Gods (season 3, 10 eps, available on Starz only, $9/month)(series is finished)
    • Black Lightning (seasons 3–4, 23 eps)(series is finished)
    • Agents of SHIELD (seasons 6–7, 26 eps)(series is finished)
    • Elementary (season 6, 14 remaining eps; season 7, 13 eps; 27 eps altogether)(series is finished)
    • Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (~30 eps (series finished))
    • Doctor Who (seasons 10–12, 49 eps including specials)(new season premiering this year)
    • The Magicians (I'd have to start over from the beginning. 65 eps)(series finished)
    • ER (seasons 2–15, 306 eps)(series finished)


Feel free to chime in with opinions, and additional recommendations just to watch me scurry around making more list entries. :D
(Note: There are 28 additional shows on my series-to-watch list. These are just the higher priority ones.)

Expanse! I should rewatch it. Also, this reminds me I should watch Elementary. I've heard Night Manager is quite good.

Magicians was a show of my heart for years and then that fourth season finale, oof. I should watch the fifth but I just can't. I have two or three unfinished fics for it, and it's all on Netflix, hmm....

I have no recommendations, I watch so little TV, but how did you find Bridgerton?

Ooh, Black Lightning is finished!

Who S10 was probably the most amusing of the Capaldi seasons, though I am STILL mad about Bill's ending. (Moffatt gonna Moffatt.) S11-12... Jodie Whittaker and her companions are fantastic and I wish they had more coherent stories. S11 is good but doesn't really build towards anything; S12 overcompensates and builds erratically towards some serious WTFery.

I just finished Star Trek: Discovery and I love it a lot. Have you seen it yet?

I think you could watch Discovery all on its own and enjoy it. It's so very good: queer characters, nonbinary actors and characters, strong black female lead, aliens in command positions. It's amazing.

I am really enjoying All Rise (about the staff at an LA courthouse - diverse cast) and Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist (a software engineer starts hearing people sing "heart songs" to her representing their emotions) - both in their second season on broadcast tv.

Of these I'd rec Elementary and the Expanse.

I also super enjoyed "Ted Lasso" which is on Apple tv. 10 episodes, one season, is renewed.

If you don't mind subtitles that are, I believe, somewhat less than wholly idiomatic at times (gosh! those punks!) then I'll rec Rookie Historian. I don't know why I like it so much, but I'm now on my third re-watch.

Note: After some careful research (aka: I glanced at Wikipedia) I've come to the conclusion that this is set in Not!Korean during the Not!Joseon period. That is, it's like a Korea AU - that's not any real king, or any particular real princes, or any actual historical events.

Judging entirely by my four friends who were obsessed with The Magicians--maybe be cautious with that one? All of them felt horribly betrayed by where the show went.

I can tell you what happens if you're interested in knowing, but it's, like, the biggest spoiler of the show so I don't want to say anything else unless you want to know.

Do report back if you watch the Untamed (or any of the others)!

I haven't posted much on dreamwidth (because i haven't posted much on dreamwidth period) but The Untamed has made me SO PROLIFIC on the ao3.
