Spec me a new series to watch

Some previous series I've really liked:

Lost
Game of Thrones
X-Files
Breaking Bad

My favorites of those were Lost and X-files, so something similar is what I'm after. I like mysteries and unanswered questions. Not too bothered about setting but am fond of fantasy and sci-fi.

Check out Fringe, fairly Sci-Fi and lots of mysteries etc.

the 100, Supernatural.

The Walking Dead. I've avoided it for the last 4 years as Zombiefied Shows weren't really my thing. Only wanted to watch 1 ep to see what all the fuss was about as seasons 1-4 was on Virgin boxsets. That was 3 weeks ago. I'm now on season 4. Its quite good.

The Leftovers, Rome. As mentioned in post #2 fringe is like X-Files

Modjo · 25 Feb 2015 at 20:45

Agreed, Fringe is a good shout. Can't go wrong with Firefly either.

Thanks for the replies.

I tried Fringe a couple of years ago. Think I watched around a dozen episodes. I liked it but it went a bit stale and every episode seemed to be the same format with little variety. Maybe it gets better in season 2?

Walking Dead I've already seen. It's a good show but not what I'm after at the moment.

I've heard good things about The 100 but not sure about it being a group of teens.

Think i'll checkout The Leftovers and Firefly and see if they're my thing.

24 ?

Yes it's old now, and the first couple of episodes may put you off, but it's a fun show to watch through to the end

-edit, only skim read your thread. 24 isn't mysterious

Fringe has one of the writers from Lost

It's not your usual teen drama it's a pretty serious show

I'm looking for something else too.

Want to watch new series of Elementary & Hannibal

I like stuff with sci fi, so might try x-files or something, I don't know.

Luther, watched this on a well known legal streaming service during the Christmas break and really enjoyed it.

Apparently a movie is being lined up as well as a new mini series to air later in the year.
