Hart of Dixie especially is soooo cheesy! But I think that might be part of the reason I love it so much. And Parenthood is really good. This is the last season. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1828409 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 11:58:00 +0000 ValentineMommy 1828409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Stick with Parenthood! It IS a little cheesy, but it's so sweet! I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1828401 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 11:56:27 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1828401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>suits! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1828394 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 11:55:33 +0000 Adira 1828394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains: I hope you like it!

Will be giving it a go now, thanks for the rec! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1828316 Thu, 21 Aug 2014 11:39:17 +0000 plantains 1828316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: You have to watch Orphan Black if you like Sci Fi. Trust me:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825912 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:56:27 +0000 Adira 1825912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: Oh, also Lost Girl and Continuum are awesome. Season 1 of Bitten was good so far. Helix was cool, but definitely scary/gory. Spartacus was AMAZING but very violent and bloody (although it's dramatized bloody, so it didn't bother me as much as Tru Blood). Oh, and Merlin was a fun show! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825906 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:53:01 +0000 cmomma17 1825906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: I think you'll love newsroom. It's such a well done show! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825904 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:52:19 +0000 youboots 1825904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@adira yes! We are already watching Defiance. I've heard of firefly.</p> <p>I loooooved Jericho, which also had a small cult following. I tried Twin Peaks but it instantly made M fall asleep, like within 5 minutes at 8pm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825897 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:49:21 +0000 Adira 1825897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: Oh good, you're a sci-fi fan? Than I'll also suggest Farscape and Firefly if you haven't seen them! And Stargate SG-1 (note: season 1 is TERRIBLE, but it gets AMAZING) and Stargate Atlantis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825895 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:49:12 +0000 cmomma17 1825895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rainbow Sprinkles: I love it too but it's so hard to watch as a parent and I think it is a bad mix with pregnancy hormones! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825893 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:48:59 +0000 youboots 1825893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@plantains M likes it more than I do so I'll think we will stick with it. There was so much yelling/bickering in the first season. We are on season 2.</p> <p>Thanks @cmomma17 good ideas.</p> <p>Ok for sure on my list:<br /> Call the Midwife<br /> The Newsroom </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825890 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:48:28 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1825890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love The Killing.</p> <p>It's a thriller, but not gory or violent.</p> <p>I also like House of Cards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825887 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:45:55 +0000 cmomma17 1825887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: do NOT watch The Killing! What about Homeland (a little violent but not crazy) or The Newsroom? Scandal and Call the Midwife are excellent recommendations too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825879 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:42:39 +0000 youboots 1825879@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11 I'm one of those rare people who did not like BB, I quit watching after season 1.</p> <p>@lulu mom no need to be current at all great suggestions. I love Scandal.</p> <p>@adira I'm looking some of these up. Thank you.</p> <p>Ps I have watched all of Battlestar Galactica &amp; Caprica, nerd alert. I could rewatch those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825865 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:39:29 +0000 plantains 1825865@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: stick with Parenthood, it definitely isn't cheesy as you go on!</p> <p>Also second @LuLu Mom: recommendations of Friday Night Lights and Orange is the New Black.</p> <p>Also, Call the Midwife is great if you liked Downton Abbey. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825862 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:38:23 +0000 Adira 1825862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll add to your list: Orphan Black, Doctor Who, Castle, Defiance, Rookie Blue, Bones (although the first scene of Bones is usually gory when they find the remains, so... just a warning), Sherlock </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825857 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:35:41 +0000 LuLu Mom 1825857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do they need to be current? If not Friday Night Lights, Scandal, Orange is the New Black, Pretty Little Liars (some thrill but it's a teen show so not scary), Revenge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825855 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:35:27 +0000 lawbee11 1825855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: I love Breaking Bad! Some episodes are a little violent, but most aren't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/non-scaryviolent-tv-show-recommendations#post-1825845 Wed, 20 Aug 2014 13:31:37 +0000 youboots 1825845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soooo usually I love thriller type shows. Dexter was my all time favorite ever. I starting watching the new season of True Blood and I had the worst nightmares for days!! I also tried watching another show and the violence made me queasy.</p> <p>Any shows you love that are not bloody/scary/gory/violent? Pregnancy seems to have changed my tolerance. </p> <p>I'm giving a Parenthood and Hart of Dixie a try. I like them but they are both SO cheesy.</p> <p>I loved Downton Abbey. </p>
