Taboo
This series by BBC First tells the story of James Keziah Delaney, the son of a shipping magnate who, in 1814, returns to London to inherit his father’s dynasty.

American Gods

It tells the dark and enigmatic universe of the English author through a story about ancient gods and their war against the new deities that technology and the man of today have created.
The Deuce
From the creators of the fantastic The Wire, we get this series focused on the porn industry of 1970 and starring James Franco and Maggie Gyllenhaal. It is surprising that such references have not been better received. You can see it on HBO.
