A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

BSG remake is a must watch for anyone, even those who don't like "sci fi"
Band of Brothers is a must watch, even for those who don't like "war"
Black Sails started amazing, dragged a bit in the middle, but well worth it for the final speech by Flint at the end.
The Americans is a show that has tragically never gotten the love that it deserves and is well worth your time.
Angel is better than Buffy in every conceivable way basically beginning in the second season and I'll always point it out to people who won't give it a chance because they don't like Buffy. (I don't like Buffy...but Angel was darker, more mature, less teeny bopper. And frankly funnier)
Edited to add:
Boardwalk Empire, the forgotten red-headed stepchild of HBO's prestige lineup. I loved it but for some reason it's completely dismissed and barely remembered.
12 Monkeys. Someone else mentioned it below and reminded me that I need to do a rewatch. I loved it. But in the later seasons was to distracted by other stuff to finish it.
