Geri, Everybody's personal taste can be so different when it comes to the type of series or movies they like, and without knowing your personal taste, it's impossible to know what you might like, but I'll share some of the shows that I have enjoyed. I do not have cable. I subscribe to Netflix, HuluPlus, and HBOgo. I also have a Kindle hdx which "mirrors" (flings) things from my Kindle to my television, and because of that, I subscribe to DroidTV, which offers a long list of popular series. If you are interested in what they have to offer, go to their website. Also, I watch PBS and I love "Sewing With Nancy".
I would prefer not to watch vulgarity or porn, and profanity can be overdone and difficult to sit through, but I am not a prude, and understand that I cannot control those things. Some of these shows would have been rated x a couple of decades ago. So with that in mind, True Blood is an HBOgo series that is also on DroidTv and Amazon Prime. It is a campy vampire/werewolf/fairy series that I enjoyed immensely. Also, Game of Thrones is a fantasy series that is worth watching. There is a show on Netflix called "Merlin" that is very good. Magic and dragons are involved. There is no sex or profanity, so you could watch it with children. My husband has an interest in zombie shows and disease epidemic/apocalyptic shows, and sci-fi/fantasy, so a lot of things we watch are geared toward his taste. I usually only watch television at night and most often it is with him, otherwise I would be choosing different shows. I happen to like:
CSI, Law and Order, Resurrection, Jane the Virgin, Ugly Betty, Chef Ramsay's Kitchen Renovation and Hotel Hell, Project Runway, Nashville, Reign, Shark Tank, Everyday Edisons, Cops, Toddlers & Tiaras, Modern Family, British Baking Show, Bar Resue, and Say Yes to the Dress. Other shows I watch with him are: Vikings, American Horror Story, Marco Polo, Fallen Skies, Star Trek, Dark Shadows, House of Cards, United States of Tara, Dexter, Sons of Anarchy, Breaking Bad, and Walking Dead. I like all of the series that I've mentioned. I hope this was helpful. What are your favorites?
