Recommend a new show for DH and me?

Anonymous
DH and I cannot agree on our next show to watch... We have Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon, so lots of options. We like to binge watch several seasons of a show at a time (i.e., an hour every night until we have finished that show). Options we have thrown out but one of us has vetoed without actually watching (although open to why you love it to see if one of us will change our minds!): Madam Secretary, Bloodline, Nashville, Scandal. What would you recommend for us to try? Here is what we have seen:

Love:
Wire
New Girl
Parenthood
Friday Night Lights
Orange is the New Black
Downton Abbey (haven't seen most recent season, but can't figure out how to stream it yet)

Like:
Game of Thrones
House of Cards
Arrested Development (except the last season)
Good Wife
Awkward

Don't Like (at least after trying a few episodes):
Broad City
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
Veep
Gillmore Girls

Justified (on amazon).
Battlestar Galactica (netflix).
hell on wheels (amc/netflix)

love these! more like wire or orange/black, in terms of grittiness. bg- no grittiness, but a great story line.

"Bosch" was great (based off author Michael Connelly's detective character.) Not sure what channel.

This was my post. I think Amazon.

Offspring on Hulu. It's an Australian show, a bit of a dramedy.

SPIRAL on Netflix. The Wire set in Paris. Well, almost. But it's good.

Luther on Netflix. It's a BBC drama. Amazing but dark...
