So, we've got topics for 'What are you playing', 'What are you listening to', and 'What are you reading', but hey, What are you watching?!
Tv shows, Youtube channels, movies - if you're watching it - share with us what it is, and what you think of it.

Just finished watching Making a Murderer. Pretty grim. I had to convince myself to sit through the final two episodes.

Oh boy.. the list of youtube channels I frequent daily.. dammit Aarah, this was your plan all along >__<
Le List
Obvious choices are Roosterteeth, Lets Play, The Know, Escapist, Vsauce, Game Theorists, n TeamFourStar
Obvious shout out to VaatiVidya, giving us superb DS vids and a much needed brief on lore in an entertaining manner. Sunlightblade n Oroboro for DS gameplay
Another good shout out is to the folks at the Yogscast, specifically Simon & Lewis, Duncan, Kim, n Sjin. Hat Films are also great, especially with their editing.
Another minecraft focused youtuber is Sethbling given his creations, also Slamacow n Element Animation are great for their animations
The folk at Cracked, Cyanide & Happyness, Dorkly, Hank & Jeb, TomSka, Eddsworld, Weeble, n Domics are great for a good time n laugh. Also How it Should of Ended n CinemaSins are great
Extra Credits n Glass Reflection for reviewer needs. Likewise Rebeltaxi. I do traffic their associates but not frequently.
For food recipes I go to Sorted Food, but if I want to feel bad about myself I go to EpicMealTime. Unrelated but if I REALLY want to feel bad, the ADHD
I also favor lets play channels, most notably RageGamingVideos. Beware his rambling is cost ypu some braincells. Further more Tears of Grace, excellent editing, wonderful voice, hilarious rambles, nuf said. Now a lesser known is SomewhatAwesomeGames, I namely prefer him as the go to Evolve player more so than others
Lastly we got a new comer to my watch list, tho npt new to the scene mind ya. My Name is Byf, great channel especially when paired with PlanetDestiny or DattoDoesDestiny, they cover alot of the need to know. Byf however wins me over, both by personality n professionism, alot of it being reminiscent to VaatiVidya.. partly bc lore videos
Now this isnt by far my whole watchlist, let alone my subscriptions, just some I felt worthy of a shout out n those I frequent regularly. And yes, this is current(Im already up to date on any of their uploads for the day) So dont get cheeky about it, I love me some youtube

Orange Is The New Black. I'm liking it quite a bit so far, just started the third season.

I'm watching series 10 of Supernatural. I'm finding it less engaging than previous seasons; it feels a bit all-over the place.
That's quite a list you've got there, Beta. (Woo, list!) Bet you're never short of something to watch!

I haven't seen any Supernatural since Series 8. I feel like catching up sometimes but then they go and make another 22 episode season with no signs of stopping anytime soon.
Spoiler question about it:
I'm also re-watching The X-Files. I'm near the end of series 6.

Supernatural: I've only seen like, up to halfway through season 3, but I still cry about Dean Winchester every single day.
Currently I'm watching...nothing, I guess. I've been reading Jojo's Bizarre Adventure Part 8, which kind of counts I guess because JoJo is also an anime.

Yes, I think he is.
Season 8 is actually the only season I haven't seen. I was catching up with pasts series, but, same as you, season 9 came out, so I started watching that. I've seen the first few episodes with stuff about the tablets, and due to watching series 9, I know about some kind of trials.
I think my favourite season was the one with the Leviathans. It's also not been the same since

One-Punch Man: This show is awesome! I've seen it (like Kill La Kill) lambaste some typical anime tropes, and it's glorious for this!
Yu Yu Hakusho: A classic IMO, I will never tire of this show
Samurai Jack: With the announcement of the show's revival set for this year, I'm watching the seasons again to catch up...And also for nostalgia
After these are finished I want to start on these shows
Twin Peaks
Breaking Bad: I need to finish S4 and 5

Started watching The Legend of Korra. I watched Avatar last year (I know I'm late to the party), and really enjoyed it (pretty much my favorite show).

Have you seen Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann? If you haven't I bet you'll like it.

Samurai Jack: On the last season of the classic version. Loving it. Can't wait for the reboot!
Breaking Bad: I'm gonna finish this show. No distractions. Just gonna zone it down.
Yu Yu Hakusho: Getting closer to the Sensui fight! Muc hype!

Currently following Supernatural and Lucifer. The latter only has a few episodes yet, and I have not read the comics from which it emerged, but I still really like it. Very curious as to how it'll unfold, because in the action and tension department it seems to lack a tiny bit so far, but for me the humor makes up for that. Nevertheless, wouldn't say no to an overarching storyline with some high stakes involved.

I binged Attack on Titan and the 5 OVAs over the course of 4 days. I rather enjoyed it and now I'm wondering if I should read the manga or just stick with the anime. The 1st OVA was probably my favorite episode, it also focused on the eccentric scientist Hange Zoƫ who's my favorite character.
Now I need to question what I'll watch next because I have no idea. Black Mirror maybe? I've heard good things about it and I like other things Charlie Brooker has done.

Oooo, i am watching a pair of brave fighters fight to the death.
Also known as Come Dine with me. IN HELL!
Or i'm watching Top Gear atm and plan on watching Claymore every day until i've seen the entire series again.
Sadly, Claymore did not get a season 2 and apparently, vol 11 of the managa follows where the show left off. There are more then 27 vols. This displeases me as i know i am legally bound to buy them at some point. Been watching Seasons 1-3 of A Game of Thrones and am at the end of season 3. Sadly, I lack Season 4 and may need to visit a khajiit to see if they have it in their wares. Or skin the buggers if they don't.

Can I put this here? I'm always very amused when people who are more educated than me rip into something and I can parrot their words.
Spoilers for The Last Kingdom.

Currently working on:
Vikings (season 3)
Naruto (I'm in the filler episodes and think I'll just skip to Shippuden)
RWBY (though the season end is 7 hours from now... HYPE!)
The Walking Dead starts up again this weekend

Or get them from a library - or ask the library to do an inter-library loan if they don't have it. I'm actually currently reading the manga of it right now (just finished vol 11).

The main issue i have with libraries that i would feel that I would have to read it before the return date and could ruin my enjoyment of it. Plus, it's something for me to treat myself when i get's a jurb and order monthly.

I enjoyed this! "Back scabbard!"
I've been watching
Land of the Giants, a 1968 Irwin Allen series about people on a flight that get transported to a planet like Earth, but everything is giant sized.

I find that happens with food.
They cancelled Alphas, which I liked, and the second series ended with a cliffhanger too.
I didn't know it was cancelled until it was mentioned on an episode of The Big Bang Theory. I pretty much felt like Sheldon did. (He was not happy).

We've been hitting up the old seasons of the X-Files (my favorite show ever) and keeping up with the new one. Also, Walking Dead starts again TONIGHT baby! And in between these, I've been watching the Twilight Zone from 1959. There's several seasons of it so I've just been skipping around all of the episodes. I love that show.

Sorry...but that makes no sense at all when you can just renew items over the internet these days. You don't even have to make a trip to the library.

Yeah, i rather do it in person and well, i'm likely to forget about it thus get hit with any late return fees. Knowing that i have to return it would make me feel like I have to read it instead of wanting to read it.

ROBOCOP(2014). And It looks like it will suck! I mean, if the first few seconds of a reboot makes me go "Oh god, no." that's not a good sign. Also, i am reminded of Metal Gears with the film's version of erm.... crap, i forgot what they were called in the original. I have heard that this reboot does suck and that it's not really robocop but it can't be worse then 3. *sees the 12 rating* NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Oh man, that means the death scene will be crap.
STOP REMAKING STUFF AND WHAT THE [&@%!] WAS THAT!? YOU BLEW HIM UP!? YOU [&@%!] BLEW HIM UP! NO! NO! DOES NOT COMPUTE! DOES NOT COMPUTE! AAAAAAAAAAAARGH! [&@%!] YOU MOVIE!

Finally getting atound to watching the full season of OPM(One Punch Man). I already knew how awesome this shoe would be.. but by jolly.. that OP, that hype, that punch.. its all too much. Seriously, if your the fan of the webcomic or manga, you really need to watch this. If say your a fan of DBZ and other action brawl animes.. then you REALLY need to watch this. This has long filled the void Overlord left me when I finished that series. Already this has made it to my top anime list, I cannot wait for this to be dubbed.
Heck, on my way to work I've been listening to the OP n OSTs while driving to work. So glad to see this show recieve so much praise even outside the usual anime viewers
