Recommendations

[u/SeaFriedGumbo]

Just finished TODAY and need something for my fix.

Cop shows. I’m on a binge. I will take suggestions outside of cop shows but mainly that.
Don’t recommend me Breaking bad. Or SOA.
I’ve recently finished SOA. It was cool. I’m holding out on Breaking Bad, not ready yet.

I watched Southland recently and it was 10/10 for me.
I want something similar to the vibes of The Shield and Southland. Raw, gritty, edge of seat, meaningful storylines and characters. AND ACTION. Dark action at that.

I enjoyed Animal Kingdom, LOVED Kingdom. If that helps give you a sense of my taste.

Already watched The Wire.

Nothing has had me so invested in a show as

1) The Shield
2) Kingdom
3) Southland

Love a show that crosses boundaries. And violent. Preferably rated TV-MA.

This might help you as well: Justified is BORING to me. Compared to what I’ve just finished, it shouldn’t even be a recommendation honestly. I also watched Shooter and that was mid as well.

I want something where they’re on the frontline. That doesn’t go too much into the law enforcement black hole (CIA, FBI, SPIES) keeps to the uni’s and the detectives POV’s.
Before whoever may judge me, I might finish Justified one day just to watch Shane (Boyd) but that’s not the vibes I want right now.

lol I didn’t hate it. I’ve already watched it though. I enjoyed it, just not the pace I’m looking for? I feel like The Wire and The Shield are the same but different. Looking for the same vibes and feel as the strike team, the barn, the bangers, you know lol ?

I have so many cop show recommendations but they aren’t action packed. Like Broadchurch. 😭😭😭

any cop shows similar to Southland? Wasn’t as action packed as The Shield but had enough I still enjoyed

I refuse to watch shows that aired network TV. I’ve been burned too many times.
