Need a show to watch while rowing
We have Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu.
I need something with a decent story line, a bit of action, but not so intricate it needs my full attention.

Longmire did me well on the rower and bike. I also liked Firefly, Jerhico, Heartland, Northern Rescue, Godless, Hell on Wheels.
Pretty open to stuff though Not really looking for gratuitous sex, violence, and language. And I hate horror stuff.

The Keepers. On NetFlix. Spoiler alert: You might want to avoid it if you went to a Catholic school.

Justified if you have not seen it. NCIS is easy to keep up with. There’s always Married with Children to watch and be ok zoning in and out of.

Did you see Blacklist year? Entertaining. James Spader is great. Consumable bite size chunks. Lots of them in the can.

If you like sci-fi consider The Expanse on Amazon. 4 seasons in the can ready to watch. Might add it has a bit of language.

"The world is filled with violence. Because criminals carry guns, we decent law-abiding citizens should also have guns. Otherwise they will win and the decent people will lose."

Started this awhile back but real crime documentaries just don’t hold my interest.

Looks like Blacklist and Justified are the front runners.

Justified is a top 3 of all time for me, so definitely watch that.


I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log.

Justified has to be first on the list, time will fly by.If you haven't seen Fauda, that's a good one. Hunted on Amazon with Melissa George was one I did on the rower and it was pretty good too.

I had been watching Fauda already and that is actually what I was watching last night with my row but with the switching between languages I was missing some in the subtitles.

I think I may give Last Man Standing a go first.

Justified and Blacklist I think I may want to pay a bit more attention to.

Definitely Justified. Funny, action-packed, and excellent story, but nothing too convoluted that requires rapt attention. Similar to Longmire, in that it's about rural law enforcement.

The Shield is another similarly good choice, dealing with urban law enforcement with a team of corrupt officers. Looks like it's on Hulu.

Justified is one of my favorites. I have recommended it to friends and they have a hard time with the first season. The pilot is great and then it feels like it is trying to find it’s identity. Good episodes not great. Season 2 on are great.

Shield is really good too.
