    @Shutterbug: I totally missed your comment before. No redeeming characters in HOC, eh? I might wait on that one, then. Thanks

    Might not be your cup of tea, but I love sci-fi shows and recently started watching Farscape on Netflix haha. It totally sucked me in! It is much better than I had expected.

    @MamaG: I hate shows without closure. Hm....

    @MamaG: I agree! I liked Brothers and Sisters but I have a hard time recommending a show that just ends without closure. I've heard the same thing happened to Friday Night Lights.

    Friday Night Lights
    Private Practice
    Revenge
    Scandal (if you don't watch it get caught up!)
    Grey's Anatomy is a nice long one (DH might not enjoy it though)
    Sons of Anarchy is a good one for both of you

    We just started watching Blacklist and Love it!! It is hard to find a show DH likes but this is a really good one.

    @Jess1483: Coming back in now that I'm on a computer with more suggestions...

    Covert Affairs on USA - we LOVE this show and my husband was on board in the beginning because it has Piper Perabo
    Suits (seconding)
    The Good Wife (not sure if this has been mentioned?)

    I really like all the USA TV shows, to be honest. Covert, Suits, White Collar, Burn Notice. Although full disclosure they tend to go kind of crazy after a few seasons.

    Not sure which ones are on Netflix or not, but these are shows my husband and I both enjoy:

    Jeckyll (only one season though)
    Luther
    Dr. Who
    Arrow
    The 100
    Psych
    Burn Notice
    Primeval (the British version)
    Farscape (if you don't mind sci-fi)
    The League
    Archer
    The Walking Dead

    @fairy: Oooh, just saw you're watching Farscape! Enjoy! Hubs and I JUST finished watching it. I had seen it before and it's one of my favorite shows! The mini series Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars isn't on streaming though, just for warning.

    @JMOM: I'm really loving Call The Midwife.
    I have to say go with Orange is the New Black. DH and I both loved it. So do my parents and inlaws.

    I am going to agree with previous poster(s) that House of Cards has no redeeming characters in it-- for that reason, I only watched the first season.

    I also agree with other posters that the USA Network shows are good options for watching with DH-- we used to watch Burn Notice and White Collar together on a regular basis. They aren't award-winning shows but both were light/entertaining/escapist shows that don't require a lot of brain activity (which is a good thing from my perspective). I watch Covert Affairs on occassion--DH only watched a season of that, I think.

    @Adira: Ah didn't know there was also a miniseries, thanks!

    @fairy: Yes, it was on after the series ended, so it wraps up some story lines and stuff. I think you can get the DVD through Netflix if you have that. It's 3 hours long I think.
