It's for me and the wife and needs to be on Netflix or Amazon prime (at least to start with).

Recently we've done the Bridge, Homeland S1+2, all of Breaking Bad, all GoT and all of the Walking Dead. Like stuff with a general arc to it not just monster of the week stuff.

She claims to not like sci-fi/fantasy, I love it.

Neither of us liked Lost and Hero's got bad after S1.

There are so many to choose from, it's hard to decide.

BSG, Firefly
24, Prison Break, Dexter
The Killing

Sons of Anarchy

Justified

Deadwood

All three are excellent. Sons does take a few episodes to get into I felt though.

Enjoying Orange is the new Black, it's funny / dark humour and there's boobs in it.

The Americans is quite entertaining so far, I'm only about halfway through the first series though, not brilliant but certainly worth watching.

Just finished Spartacus, which I loved.

Watched first two episodes of Penny Dreadful recently. That's great too.

Definately Breaking Bad. Watch the first few and if you like it, it just keeps getting better.

It's short but brilliant, check out True Detective.

True Detective and The Blacklist are both good, but the Mrs and I have nearly finished watching S1 of Hannibal and I would say Hannibal is better than the other two I mentioned.

Just finished season 1 of Bates Motel. Wasn't sure if I'd like it, but really enjoyed it....plus Norma Bates (Vera Farmiga) is rather tasty so that helped smile

The Sopranos, The Shield or The Wire. Not on Netflix but the DVD box sets are worth the money.

Give BSG a go. It may set in space etc, but there are so many sub-plots and stories that it may keep her interested. Just make sure you watch the pilot first, don't jump straight into season 1 Ep 1.
