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

SoA seems to be in the lead at the moment but I found the following as well.

Hemlock Grove
Lillyhammer
House of Cards (us or uk)
Person of Interest
White Collar
Rome
American Horror Story
Dust til Dawn
Under the Dome
Vikings

Well we started Orange is the New Black last night.

Nearly didn't make it through the first episode, but held on and it improved enough in the last quarter to get another viewing. The lead actress was awful, the characters were unsympathetic the flashback/forward format didn't really work. We will see.

Utopia is excellent, I'm up to date on that one.
