I was gonna ask about The Magicians. It had come out right after Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrel so I was kinda burnt out on 'magic' when it aired. But I could get down with it now if its more focused on action and fantasy then pulpy drama (I was kinda getting daytime drama vibes from the commercials).
So I was hoping this was some cool docu series that flew under my radar that I could binge on...
Seriously... who?
I hope more people watched this, Travelers was really enjoyable.

instagram/vine/snapchat "stars"...sigh
I added it to my Q. Trying to find some time to view it. It looks like a good SciFi show.
Yup. Only reason I know that clown is from instagram memes.

Netflix should not spend money on shit like this. I don't know who that is either.

Trollhunters is pretty great actually. Though I get a bit sad watching it since it was Anton Yelchin's last project.

Watched all of Colony. Great show.
Looking for something else Sci-fi to watch after I finish the Sense8 Christmas special. Is Travelers any good?

Travelers seems to be getting good praise. As well as The OA. 3% is decent.

Noice. Adding all three to my list. So many Netflix originals I'm gonna have to get through.
Same here. I'm just sad for Marcy.
I literally thought this was a fake Justin Bieber mockumentary. Did not know it was some real shit.So I was hoping this was some cool docu series that flew under my radar that I could binge on...

The Expanse is good but the show doesn't have all the science the book does. They kind of pass over describing some of the interesting technology. Highly recommend the books as a really good, easy, and entertaining read if you can find them on sale or in the local library.
Its also not streaming in the US. It is streaming on Amazon prime in the US.

Folks, don't waste your time with Maximum Ride. It is straight garbage and one of the worst movies I've ever watched. I'm still amazed I made it all the way through.
Because of your post, I went to check out the trailer. Looks so bad lol.
Will watch.

GK86 is like Mikey from the old Life cereal commercials. But with Film/TV. He'll watch anything.

Supersonic, idiotic, disconnecting, not respecting, who would really ever wanna go and top that
See, now I gotta watch it. Surely it can't be worse than Allegiant or The 5th Wave.

It's quite a bit worse than both of those, especially the former. I actually liked Allegiant. The 5th Wave was some sci-fi Twilight nonsense, but I've seen worse.
Like Maximum Ride!
Honestly, I love science fiction stuff, so I'll watch damn near anything in that genre. Same for fantasy and supernatural.

The trailer is disturbingly awful. I don't think I could get drunk enough to consider watching this.

Magicians is a nice concept but I don't know if they executed it that well. I'm kinda split on my opinion.

Likewise. My wife is really enjoying it, but it is just meh for me. The guy who plays Quinton is like a poor man's Robert Sean Leonard.

I really enjoyed parts of Magi... are they doing a third season in the main story?

Travelers is excellent. There's a few ridiculous storylines where you're like WHY THE FUCK DID THAT HAPPEN?! Still it's really really good.
