Orange is the New Black s3 s3 is so much better than s2. i love it.

Sense8 i was a bit clueless on e01 and e02. but its getting better afterward.

The Last Ship s2 still cheesy but re-started with a bang.

The Astronaut Wives Club ok but too woman-centric for my liking.

Wayward Pines very interesting.

The Whispers was ok but i may drop my interest.

Co-written and directed by The Wachowskis Siblings, it reminds me of Cloud Atlas ... confusing at first, but overall the series is about the personal stories of each interconnected characters, not the mechanism of the special human species. After episode 5 only the story picked up the pace. I finished watching it last Saturday, following that only read the news about the historic US Supreme Court decision ... since the Wachowskis are passionate about the LGBT community and the Pride especially Lana; depending on the viewer, prepared to be either moved to tears or repulsed by some of the characters' struggles. Donna Bae, Wachowskis' regular, still cool and kicking ass. The African section/character, Chapeous, I thought was the weak link/story but evolved into one of the stories with the most action (due to 'Van Damme' inspiration laugh.gif ); in the end, each got his/her own usefulness and role to play.

Other new shows which I were curious about, and now have my attentions are:-

Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell - establishing respectable practical magic as profession in 19th-century England. Didn't delve too much into spell details and variations. Concentrating mainly on the bad aspect of summoning 'fairy'. Only 7 episodes, as per usual UK short series.

Mr. Robot - great pilot episode ... an introvert hacker wishing to change the world ... hopefully in the end the story isn't just imagined by him ... the main character did mention that while he's telling his story to us (viewers) as an imaginary friend, he's sure that he didn't create the events that's happening to him. Liked some of the inserted social commentaries.

By far Mr.Robot is the more enjoyable show on air right now for me.
Hannibal still the prettiest show to gawk at. A little convoluted and a bit self referential. Things are picking up with the latest episode.
Humans a pretty solid sci-fi show with BBC premium stamp of approval.
Halt and Catch Fire a lot more manageable than the season before.
About to start on Deutschland 83 after a client of mine talking non-stop about it.

UnReal, a very interesting look behind the scenes of a dating competition shows (i.e. The Bachelor), is so far pretty good. However, I don't know how it is going to be as good as it is now beyond Season 1.

Even if it got picked up, they will be on hiatus due to American Gods being confirmed for production. Any continuation of Hannibal gonna be few years down the road. Just what I read from the internet.

Watched wayward pines.
At first it feels like horror. Later it feels like fiction. Now it feels like post-apocalypse. Hopefully it won't turn into teenage romance.

Amazon pilot reveals. So will Walter White cameo enough to get the show pick-up?
It does rip off elements of the excellent The Imposter documentary.

For me the funniest show right now.
Each episode he review 3 random absurd things. The clever bit is how they incorporate these experiences into an overarching story. There are a lot of clips available on comedy central's youtube channel. You will need to watch the full episode on how they weave in those reviews in his life for even greater laughs.
The negative is try not to binge watch it as the novelty can wear off a bit with its rigid structure. Kinda like the american "Office". Space out in between episodes and currently 2nd season just aired.
