Replacing PoI :(

Suggestions?

Comments

It's hard to get through the first episodes of Dollhouse, the actors just don't "get it" and then they just start to gel for a solid show. Shame they had to rush the ending so much, but it's no Jericho or Caprica.

Robert Kruger

I like the idea of him doing more older shows like he did with BSG and Lost and Rome and Deadwood, and 24 is perfect for reactions with its action and pace and twists and surprises.

Michael

Penny Dreadful would be fun. I think he did the first episode and said he liked it.

Agnieszka Pienczykowska

Or The L Word :P

Agnieszka Pienczykowska

Killing Eve is on my to watch list. I hear it's good.

Agnieszka Pienczykowska

I second Hannibal, Sons of Anarchy, Orphan Black, Penny Dreadful, and Chernobyl. I also second Dark, but only if you watched it in German with the subtitles. I would also add Dollhouse, a fun two season Joss Whendon show that he did after Buffy and Angel (which I would also recommend if you haven't seen them).

Agnieszka Pienczykowska

Dark a Netflix German show, it's amazing! I highly recommend it.

Aras Paty

Chernobyl (miniseries too so you can move to something else pretty quickly)

Jed U

Barry

Just When I Thought I Was Out...

Mr Robot

Have you ever seen Avatar: The Last Airbender? If not... I will always recommend that show to anyone who hasn't seen it. If you like it and finish it, of course its sequel The Legend of Korra is a perfect follow up to that too.

Matthew Doney

Hannibal. Hands down. Perfect POI replacement. Starts out as a case of the week and turns into a fantastic long arc story that will ultimately overtake one of your top ten characters of all time and is only three seasons. If not then 12 Monkeys, Orphan Black, or the Americans.

Tanner

Sons of Anarchy, The Americans, Altered Carbon, Hell on wheels, Misfits

Counterpart is one of the most underrated shows of the last decade.

Drew

I second this.

Drew

Hell on Wheels, The Last Kingdom, The Americans, Spartacus, and Justified are all good picks. They should all be on the next poll.

Drew

Spartacus - Short and AMAZING action and drama. Love Death & Robots - One season all animated (not anime) individual stories per episode A Touch of Cloth (UK) - British cop show with great humor Orphan Black - It's solid, but the acting is amazing.

Robert Kruger

Absolutely!

Robert Kruger

Misfits(UK Show)

Latisha Andrews

"Dead Like Me" (aired 2003-2004; 29 episodes)

William Yelland

definitely sons of anarchy and im hoping you'll react to Westworld season 3 soon?

Dean Cyphers

mr.robot or black mirror

Abara_art

Justified, please. Nobody has reacted to it, and it is incredibly underrated. Walton Goggins is amazing, and there are a bunch of familiar faces that show up throughout the series. I know you'll love it.

A L

Justified is my first pick, for sure. Or maybe Killing Eve.

Feather_Noir

24, Chernobyl, The Americans, Mad Men

John C

Mad men , the Americans, justified

T0ast

I'll say True Blood, vampire drama that aired on HBO - bit of a different suggestion for you! Not sci-fi, more modern fantasy.

Hazel Angus

absolutly tatiana is an amazing actress in this show and has extraordinary range

NWar086

Justified would be my main recommendation as I know you enjoyed the first episode a lot and Timothy Olyphant & Walton Goggins kill it in the show! Also have you seen Madmen yet because if you haven't I would highly recommend it as well as the series belongs comfortably in the golden age of TV with one of my favourite ensembles in a series lead by the hugely charismatic Don Draper

Drenawx

Not sure if you watched it already, but Orphan Black? It gave me similar vibes as PoI and it has some brilliant characters and some brilliant acting!

4Tom4lepus4

The Americans is excellent. Mr. Robot is up there too.

Ben Trotter

Spartacus is excellent

Muttley

maybe insecure?seasonfour's finally coming!

yasmine

Check out Mr. Robot.

Steve Mercier

Black Mirror

Randy Watson

Have to agree.

David

The Americans would be a really good choice.

Leverage or maybe Burn Notice

Jorgen Karlsson

You should check out Spartacus as soon as you can . Having watched your reaction to many different shows you definitely appreciate a good villain and Spartacus is most definitely a show filled with badasses of the highest order. I remember you saying you had some problems in the beginning adjusting to Nick E. Tarabay who played Matush in Sopranos and Cotyar in the Expanse because those roles are very different. I've seen him play a lot of characters in various shows and imo nothing tops his role as Ashur in Spartacus. I don't wanna spoil anything other than to say I can guarantee you Spartacus have many different characters that are right up your valley.

I think he mentioned that he's seen the first season of it... I'd be curious to know more about what he thinks of the show.

TouchTheGarlic

**** THE LAST KINGDOM***** on Netflix!!! 10x better then Vikings (post Ragnar ofc) and more historically accurate. Plus season 4 is coming April 26th!!! So you would have lots of content!! IF ANY OTHER ARSELINGS OUT THERE SECOND THIS GIVE IT A LIKE!!!

Reaction Junkie

Justified since you mentioned liking it. Another is is Taboo since it's only 8 eps with season 2 coming this year, it stars Tom Hardy.

dbnu

Mr. Robot

Teddy S

I highly suggest spartacus its from stars who did black sails its realy good and i think you wil like it alot

NexX

Westworld S3 opener legit looked like the unofficial Person of Interest Season 6.

Gil

Justified would be delightful... Sons of Anarchy are also fun.

Jana

If you want to see Sarah Shahi in another great show made before Person Of Interest check out Life.

Robert Leija

FireFly

I'll support Farscape

TRK2

+1 for the Americans, great show

aleph-0

Hannibal would be a great choice for reactions!

David

The Americans, Hannibal, or Atlanta

Just When I Thought I Was Out...

With The Shield being one of Jimmy's all time fav shows Sons Of Anarchy should be something he puts on the list with Sons creat Kurt Sutter being one of the main writers for The Shield, and in the most recent poll that was won by Deadwood, Sons Of Anarchy placed 2nd or 3rd so there is demand on the subscriber side.........all that aside i just think based on eveyrthing I've seen Jimmy react to he will love Sons Of Anarchy.

geoff woyce

Bosch is an amazing show. It has a lot of actors from the Wire. Nobody reacts to it too. The sixth season is coming in later this year and it has already been picked up for a seventh and final season. It is written well and has Michael Connelys 20 or so books to grab storylines from.

Constantine

Altered Carbon, Mad Men, Avatar the Last Airbender

Krieger

Mr. Robot

karth

Chernobyl

Tron

Taboo, Spartacus, Orphan Black

Spartacus

I remember rolling straight into I, Claudius after watching HBO's Rome (since it picks up shortly after the end of that series chronologically). It took me a couple episodes to get into it because of the dated production style, but once John Hurt showed up it became some of the most gripping television I've seen. Fun fact; my grandmother was friends with Siân Phillips (who plays Livia) in university.

TouchTheGarlic

Hell on wheels

Brian Darty

Counterpart is amazing, but unfinished, right? Didn't they cancel it?

David

The Orville. -- Initially seen as a Star Trek TNG spoof, but turned out to be serious SciFi, but with comedy. Good Omens. -- Humorous miniseries about the biblical apocalypse. Doctor Who. -- This would be a long journey though (and you'd need a good playlist to keep track of the specials and such) Avatar: the Last Airbender & The Legend of Korra. -- Kid's cartoon of which everybody says at one point "this is not a kids show". I, Claudius. -- British historical show from the '70s about the first Roman emperors, based around some semi-fictional books. Kinda like Game of thrones without magic, special effects nor a modern tv budget.

MrEvers

I would second the previous suggestion of The Americans, Counterpart, or Burn Notice.

Now and Again

Ash vs evil dead or Farscape

Wateesh

24

Ghost St Patrick

Spartacus or Penny Dreadful

Ninaofthe90s

Spartacus would get my vote.

Dave

There are a few people reacting to it. I support this recommendation. 2 seasons on Netflix and the final season later this year.

Tim Arnold

Any genre? My one recent recommendation to anyone is Netflix's Dark. It's a German sci-fi show, 2 seasons in, with a 3rd and final season in the works. Like anything live action, I definitely recommend the original audio, German in this case. Don't hear this show being talked about much in the states, much less reacted to, but I still gotta recommend it.

Ram

Spartacus.

David

Mr. Robot, maybe? I thought I heard you say that you had watched the first season... it would be worth reacting to the other seasons if you haven't watched them. It only gets better as it goes along.

TouchTheGarlic

Based on your growing enjoyment of sci-fi and your love for snarky/badass characters...maybe checkout Farscape? It is a really weird sci-fi show about an astronaut that gets thrown through a wormhole and ends up in another part of the galaxy on an alien prison ship. It is dark, twisted, funny with absolutely amazing character arcs. I will also second Justified.

WrathOfTheGoth

He's reacted to the first two seasons of Westworld already. Would love to see him do season 3.

TouchTheGarlic

Justified!

AgentFalcon

Altered Carbon

Tracy Jones

The Americans

Brandon Bush

the young pope

SanchoPanza

In no particular order: Justified (Timothy Olyphant) kills in this show as well, excellent writing and a solid replacement for PoI. Warrior (by the guys who made Banshee), spiritual successor to that show. Jett (excellent choice as well though only 1 season), female version of Banshee without it being over the top. Counterpart (JK Simmons kills). Spiritual successor to Lost, mystery/thriller, also excellent. 2 seasons. Succession. The funniest show currently on air, where you get to see the inner workings of the absurdly rich that are completely out of touch with reality.

Unbeheld

Sons of Anarchy

Westworld is a good one, even though it pales in comparison to POI. Have you ever seen Burn Notice. Bruce Campbell is the GOAT. Or Ash vs Evil Dead

Derek

Westworld season 3?

Michael

Lucifer starring Tom Ellis. It's phenomenal!!
