I forgot, Travellers is a solid short series as well.

2023-08-04 13:59:25 +0000 UTCOmg I remember falling skies! Back when tv shows could greenlight just about any sci fi concept and I would get to enjoy them regardless of how high budget they were. I almost suggested Doctor Who but I wasn’t sure he would enjoy it, I was mainly hyped for him to see the entire cast of British actors in one show lmao

2023-07-22 08:14:42 +0000 UTCFalling Skies is a great short Sci-fi show, but it's probably not going to get too many votes. Orphan Black is also solid except for one WTF character. To me, the best has to be just the first season of Altered Carbon. It's a complete enough story and the 2nd season isn't worth a bother IMO.
Robert Kruger
2023-07-22 06:40:01 +0000 UTCyeah Sir Malcolm is also the kind of character I like. But it could be both of them. Vanessa is my favorite, but Sir Malcolm is a close second 👍
Ninaofthe90s
2023-07-20 18:41:22 +0000 UTCWhile it stands to reason he would enjoy pretty much all of them, as they are pretty much all awful people - except Vanessa, I’d argue even tho she’s spooky - I’d I think his favourite would be Sir Malcolm. An absolute menace to society.

Ninaofthe90s
2023-07-20 13:54:16 +0000 UTCThis is late but Penny Dreadful! I know you’ve seen the first episode and you don’t like horror but how could you not meet one of your favourite characters of all time?? (Penny Dreadful fans, three guesses which character Jimmy would end up liking)
Kim Carragher
2023-07-19 22:16:40 +0000 UTCThe Bear

2023-07-19 01:58:40 +0000 UTCI'm lowkey rooting for that to happen

TouchTheGarlic
2023-07-19 00:15:28 +0000 UTCHe’s seen Season 1 off-camera, but it’s been on polls before for Seasons 2-4. I would definitely vote for it again.
TouchTheGarlic
2023-07-19 00:15:01 +0000 UTCMr Robot is only 4 seasons but its brilliant IMO.
Vast81
2023-07-18 23:28:52 +0000 UTCSomeone else said Homeland and I replied in agreement with that. As a patron since 2018 I can confidently say that you would enjoy Homeland Jimmy. At the very least, the first three seasons (there's eight in total) complete a certain narrative that is classic television. The first season won the Emmy for Best Drama. I find a lot of the latter seasons are really good as well and underrated as other elements and characters get increased attention. You wouldn't regret watching the first three seasons of Homeland Jimmy!

2023-07-18 14:20:21 +0000 UTCHomeland is definitely something Jimmy needs to see eventually, at least the first three seasons. Season one won Emmy for Best Drama. The other five seasons are entertaining too and definitely underrated since they add in great characters and I can confidently say Jimmy would enjoy it, but at least the first three seasons he's gotta give a go since they are classic TV.
Mark Lowe
2023-07-18 13:48:21 +0000 UTCFirefly would be neat

Cooper Little
2023-07-18 12:06:08 +0000 UTC- Broadchurch, british crime drama (3 seasons, 24 episodes total ; ended) - The Sandman, adaptation of the supernatural DC comic of the same name by Neil Gaiman, but not connected to anything else at DC (1 season so far, 11 episodes ; renewed for season 2) - Midnight Mass, horror miniseries by Mike Flanagan (7 episodes ; ended)
Erwin Rogier
2023-07-18 11:03:06 +0000 UTC-The Bear -Castlevania (animated) -The Haunting of Hill House
Igby
2023-07-18 09:14:46 +0000 UTCAlso The Office UK, is very short and arguably better than the American.
AlexBoss
2023-07-18 06:44:27 +0000 UTCDefinitely Andor. No question about it. It's only 1 episodes and 1 season currently (the second one will probably be released closer to the end of 24) Bear is also a fantastic show.
AlexBoss
2023-07-18 06:40:30 +0000 UTCLove Dollhouse. Very underrated, though definitely a little dated at points.
TouchTheGarlic
2023-07-18 04:35:02 +0000 UTCTaboo and Andor (I don’t even like Star Wars but Andor is fantastic)

2023-07-18 04:03:39 +0000 UTCDollhouse would be a great show. Fantastic cast, two short seasons of 13 episodes each. Jimmy would love the sci-fi concepts.
Tim Itnyre
2023-07-18 03:55:21 +0000 UTCAndor (12 episodes, 2022-) - Finally, a Star Wars show that was truly made for adults. It’s a grounded, complex drama about the tyranny of the empire and the cost of rebellion. It’s also very disconnected from the lore - no prerequisite knowledge is required.
TouchTheGarlic
2023-07-18 03:18:37 +0000 UTCThe Terror (10 episodes, 2018) - AMC miniseries about the mysterious disappearance of the Franklin Polar Expedition in 1845. Historically authentic, but with a supernatural twist. Has some amazing characters and dialogue - lots of competence porn. Starring Jared Harris, Tobias Menzies, and Ciarán Hinds.
TouchTheGarlic
2023-07-18 03:08:10 +0000 UTCIt’s 8 seasons according to google but I didn’t watch past season 4.
Sean
2023-07-18 02:41:12 +0000 UTCI’m pretty sure homeland is 7 seasons
Light Yagami
2023-07-18 02:09:19 +0000 UTCHomeland. It's 9 seasons but only the first 3 are really must watch. Chuck - A more light-hearted spy show but with serious and emotional moments. Continuum - Sci-fi/time travel show with fantastic action.
Sean
2023-07-18 00:38:51 +0000 UTCUtopia (UK) 2 seasons 6 eps each, Flebag and The Bear of course.

Ninaofthe90s
2023-07-17 22:43:49 +0000 UTCI know filmbuff just started and that would be cool, I’ve just been itching for him to watch a few others I’ve been keen on but he hasn’t really watched much anime at all. Besides Vinland saga and MHA season 5 I can’t even remember the last show he reacted to 😭 I would like to see jujutsu kaisen and code geass and I’d like to see Monster even if it is a little bit longer.
Dean Cyphers
2023-07-17 22:37:25 +0000 UTCI saw that and he didn't hate so I'm hoping he gives it a full run.🤞
INFJ-T Tyrone
2023-07-17 22:28:26 +0000 UTCAlso chiming in with those who suggested The Bear, Fleabag and The Haunting of Hill House (found on disney, prime and Netflix respectively)
Kim Carragher
2023-07-17 22:24:00 +0000 UTCThank youuuu I thought I was too late to get the ball rolling 😭

2023-07-17 22:22:34 +0000 UTCSecond fleabag
Dani
2023-07-17 22:20:35 +0000 UTCNot a short tv show but short seasons… uk sitcom Peep Show. Top tier arguably better than The Office ;) but I have a soft spot for anything not as we’ll known but just as brilliant
Dani
2023-07-17 22:20:25 +0000 UTCThe Bear!
Rickard Blixt
2023-07-17 22:18:28 +0000 UTCThe British versions yeah? Life on Mars is amazing followed by Ashes to Ashes !
Dani
2023-07-17 22:16:40 +0000 UTCFleabag is amazing!! Only 2 seasons, and it is super quick. You could definitely have it done in a day or two.
neat

K
2023-07-17 21:33:37 +0000 UTCThe Bear (incredibly acted, directed show, tense, emotional funny, all the good stuff). Ted Lasso (more comedic, very funny show with some nice touching moments, very fun and entertaining.)
Stefanniko
2023-07-17 21:08:15 +0000 UTChe also reacted to the first episode a couple of months ago.

emily ღ
2023-07-17 20:59:10 +0000 UTCYes!
Jack Warren
2023-07-17 20:59:03 +0000 UTCJERICHO! It's cast has Morgan (Lennie James) from The Walking Dead and Raymond Tusk (Gerald McRaney) from House of Cards in big roles.
INFJ-T Tyrone

INFJ-T Tyrone
2023-07-17 20:47:59 +0000 UTChe needs to watch Monster. It's the perfect anime for him. But it's not exactly short 😂
Ninaofthe90s
2023-07-17 20:47:14 +0000 UTCFleabag is also great.
Ninaofthe90s
2023-07-17 20:46:01 +0000 UTCThe Bear. 2 seasons, only 9 episodes per season. Very very very good. Also, "The Diplomat", with Kerri Russel.
Paul T Hewes
2023-07-17 20:44:16 +0000 UTCFleabag please!
Corey
2023-07-17 20:30:05 +0000 UTCHas he watched Big little lies or sharp objects?
Jocelyn Randall
2023-07-17 20:13:49 +0000 UTCWould love to see him do The Good Place, but I wouldn't call it a short show.
MrEvers
2023-07-17 20:10:26 +0000 UTCSilo. Just aired on Apple tv, got a lot of buzz, excellent show. Another book adaptation from the showrunner of justified.

shenzi22
2023-07-17 19:57:23 +0000 UTCIs this live action only? Not animated? Because I still think you'd love Netflix's Castlevania show. But it seems to be live-action only =) So I'd agree with those saying Mare of Easttown, I think you'd dig that
Michael
2023-07-17 19:57:06 +0000 UTCoh no i haven't seen that, i'm still new to him/patreon but that's too bad that it was the wrong episode. ugh the network doing things out of order, it makes it confusing to those trying to discover the show now.
emily ღ
2023-07-17 19:53:57 +0000 UTCI'd honestly love to see him go through all of Mike Flanagan's stuff: this, Bly Manor, Midnight Mass, and his other movies too; already got Doctor Sleep done! Edit: sorry if you got a bunch of notifications; twice I meant to make a different reply to the post itself but accidentally made it to you!

2023-07-17 19:44:29 +0000 UTChe reacted to one episode already. Like 6 months ago. Have you seen it? Unfortunately he started with the wrong episode (the second one) 😂
Ninaofthe90s
2023-07-17 19:41:02 +0000 UTCfirefly would be so much fun!! you'd really enjoy it i think. very short season (before it was canceled) and then a movie to tie the lose ends. easy watch and a huge favorite for many that have seen it
emily ღ

Jesse Walker
2023-07-17 19:26:45 +0000 UTCSorry to ask here since there’s nowhere else but will you be making a poll for another anime show after Vinland? Also are you continuing MHA? Seems like anime has taken a backseat this past year or so 🥲
Dean Cyphers
2023-07-17 19:23:38 +0000 UTCMare of Easttown was a wicked little detective limited series on HBO, fairly sure you haven’t seen that one and it’s probably right up your alley 👌
