I loved it, I loved the characters and the relationships and the last episode I just cried my eyes out! Let me know if you started, it might be one of those shows that doesn't grab you at the first couple of episodes, but it turns out great! OR it could be me

Deb-EX‌ Apparently I did finish the OA. LOL... I must have fallen asleep cuz I don’t remember finishing it and I wasn’t that into it. Maybe I’ll try again.

Into the Wild would still have to be my favorite (Plus it has an Awesome Soundtrack)

Garden State was a staple movie for me for a long time - but Wish I was Here (Also directed by Zach Braff) is climbing the favorites list quickly...

A few other honorable cinematic mentions:

City of Angels

The Scent of a Woman

Fury

Memento

The Family Man

Serendipity

Dazed & Confused

and when I just want to numb my brain...TOMMY BOY

As for Shows...

I almost hate to admit it but Archer is currently right up towards the top of my viewing list

Also enjoy:

Scrubs

American Horror Story

Vikings

Taboo

Deadwood

Honestly I am more of a "go outside and do something" person, so not a lot to contribute here. That said, in the sub-zero depths of MN winters...sometimes you just have to find ways to kill time inside where its warm.

Omg Taboo was AWESOME!! Can't wait for season 2 ... Geez when's it coming LOL.. And Vikings so awesome too....

I have heard early 2019 on Taboo - I am sure it was just rumor though, and I haven't seen anything that quantifies the claim. 

Vikings is a good one for sure - I tend to pick away at that one. I didn't start on it until it was already 3 seasons in, and I have a tough time passively watching it so I tend to wait for cold/nothing days to binge a season at a time.

If you like those two, I am assuming you follow GOT as well - have you heard anything on a release date for Season 8 yet?
