"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

Anybody can suggest me a tv series with a criminal as main character?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

Didnt see the first two but watched the first 2 or 3 seasons of breaking bad till the drama passed the critic mass and forced me to quit it.
Its really a pity how many great shows get screwed up to make sure women watch them and drag advertisment money with them.

Not as bad as sons of anarchy but still too heavy.

Yeah I watched 2 and a half seasons of Breaking Bad and just couldn't stand it anymore because I loathed Walter White to the core of his being.

Dexter is a Showtime original. Season 7 aired this past season, but I think most people agree that only the first four or so seasons are prime quality stuff. Everyone likes Dexter.

Death Note is 37 twenty minute episodes of the most fast-paced, mind-boggling storytelling I have ever seen. The only reason why it's not mainstream is because it happens to be an anime. I think it's the anime for people who don't watch and never will watch anime. It's about a high school student who finds a notebook that has the ability to kill whoever's name is written in it, prompting this student to become a vigilante who slowly becomes deluded with a god-complex. If you give this a chance you will be blown away

I wrote this in an earlier thread but White Collar features a criminal as one of the two main characters.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

If you hate the Walter White character, at least you'll get to see him die soon.

I never watched it, but "Weeds" would be a show based on a criminal.

Criminals are much more likely to be in movies than be the main character in a continuing show, because people have a need to see the bad guy get what he deserves. That's what typically happens to a criminal in a movie. The only way to string along a tv show plot about a bad guy is to deny him his punishment for being a bad guy in every episode. It takes an endearing character for viewers to be ok with that - like the soccer mom from Weeds or Walter White the chemistry teacher.

I stopped watching the show. If I hear that Walt FINALLY dies, I will jump to the episode, no the SCENE, that he dies in, watch it, and then be done with Breaking Bad forever.

Nuh-uh. Watch Dexter. In our society it doesn't get much worse than serial killer, and that's what Dexter is. I'd bet you that for a strong majority of Dexter viewers, it's not about "being ok" with him not getting punished, it's about hoping that the eponymous protagonist does not get caught.

I'm watching reruns of The Rockford Files on Hulu.

Jim Rockford (James Garner), a low-maintenance private eye, spent five years in prison before being pardoned by the Governor. His father (Noah Beery Jr.), lawyer Beth Davenport (Gretchen Corbett), former prison mate Angel Martin (Stuart Margolin), and can-I-get-this-plate-run friend of convenience LAPD Sergeant Dennis Becker (Joe Santos) are dragged along on Jim's detective adventures on "closed cases, only... my fee is $200 a day plus expenses."

Bonus: Garner does his own stunt driving in a cool 1970s Pontiac.

The decades dragged by with no TV drama even running close to the quality of this one. In 2007, Burn Notice emerged with a similar flavor of hero. While the lead character, Michael Westen (Jeffrey Donovan) is not an ex-con, he is afoul of the law in an extreme way.

All good suggestions here. I got pissed when they got rid of Dexter on Netflix, so I'm way behind.

Death Note, is by far the best anime I've ever seen. I realize not everyone is into that kind of stuff, but it really makes you think. Good stuff.

Breaking Bad is good, but overrated IMO.

I think what you're looking for mostly is shows/movies that follow sociopaths. That seems to be what nearly all of these shows have in common.

I liked that one really great series, pity that they had to inject some poisonous drama, as if we needed a divorce and a autistic kid in an action series about corrupt cops, same sh1t as the sick kid and the drug-addict mother of the sons of anarchy main character.

Dexter was on Netflix?!?!

I actually like Code Geass even better. The theme of power corrupting is just as prevalent, yet there are so many other motifs occuring. It's just as intense, and I found the characters to be much more compelling in Code Geass than in Death Note. However, it is more anime-y

Yes, Dexter was on Netflix for awhile, then I guess their contract ended or something. It seems to happen to all my favorite shows/movies.

“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”

Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.

I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.

Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules.  Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
