Need help choosing next show to binge watch.
So, should my next binge watch show be House of Cards, Ray Donovan, The Americans or Season 3 of The League?

House of Cards was quite excellent. It is the only one I've seen, but I would feel comfortable choosing it. Where if I may ask are these shows available. Is Ray Donovan for instance on Netflix now?

Haven't seen the others but Ray Donovan in my opinion is crap and not worth watching. I've heard nothing but good things about House of Cards and intend to watch it at some point soon.

The Americans because that's the only one I've seen in full.

I believe I saw it was listed on Showtime On Demand. If I'm wrong, I guess that's one off my list. LOL

Don't listen to Mike86, Ray Donovan is awesome. Jon Voight is the highlight and IMO deserves an Emmy nomination for best supporting actor. Its gotten better each week. Plus, James Woods just joined the show a few weeks ago.
And yes, all the episodes are on Showtime On Demand and can be streamed on Showtime Anytime.
Unless JoeFrog saved all the episodes from the Spring airing, The Americans can only be purchased a la carte on Amazon or ITunes. It's not on home video yet.
Season 3 of The League is now on Netflix.

in other words, you probably have another year or so before you can watch them unless you get showtime. as dvd season releases don't get released until before the new season

Out of the four choices, I have only seen The Americans and would highly recommend it. It does start off slow, but if you stick with it, it definitely gets better as the season progresses.
For all the complaints of Low Winter Sun's progression, I found this show even slower initially. But by the end of the season , I was left wanting more.

I voted the Americans but you should also check out Shameless, Strike Back and Hit & Miss. I don't know if Hit & Miss is coming back but it's worth watching the six episodes that were made.

Season 4 was just recently added as well.
House of Cards is worth a binge watch, but I agree Orange is the New Black was more fun.
I'd say Season 3 of The League because it's shortest (it's equal to half a season of the other shows) so you could knock out Season 3 and Season 4 without much effort.

I'd say The Americans. I haven't seen House of Cards or much of The League(plan on watching both at some point). I really like Ray Donovan as well.
The Hit & Miss suggestion is a good one. Good show and original. Unfortunately I don't think it's coming back.

Hit and Miss was cancelled in the UK, who originally produced it. Directv aired it in the U.S. last year. It is on Netflix though.

Bummer about Donovan. I thought it was surely over by now. I have heard too many good and too many bad things about it to pass it up.

I voted League Season 3, just because that would only really take about 2 days.
I've never seen "Ray Donovan."
I loved both House of Cards and The Americans, but if you haven't seen them and you're going to binge, you might as well wait until just before seasons 2 of each show come out.
I watched the Americans one episode a week. I think that's the way to go with that show. I don't know if it's necessarily a bingable show. I intended to watch one House of Cards episode a week. I watched the whole season in 3 days.

I'll say The League as well - it's so short (you can watch 3 eps in an hour) you'll fly through it. Season 3 is great.
I love both House of Cards and The Americans, but you should hold off on those until next year when each is getting ready to 'air' their second season.
I quit Ray Donovan after 4 episodes - great cast, shit show.

The Americans, because it needs all the live +3 viewers it can get, so watch it now and be ready to watch season 2 on FX. I don't want it getting canceled. IT'S UP TO YOU!
