I don't know about the others but among us three most active Germans (Gretel, our little *missing* witch Wunderlich and me) Vikings is pretty much a topic.
And, of course, Sleepy Hollow, or how I call it, after a Grimm-co-executive went off to Fox ... Okay, Jose is now on another show and we have to find out how season 2 will turn out but I am pretty sure with Damian still in charge it will stay the way of season 1.
Helix is also a little favourite of mine. I mean, hello? That's sort of a bastard child of Highlander and Re-Genesis - love
I think the other shows on my watch/favourite list aren't really mystery/scifi ... okay, besides Hemlock Grove, but I don't know if anybody here is watching.
Omg, omg, omg, Penny Dreadful, which just wrapped up its 8 episode season, is probably one of the best shows I've watched this year. I can't talk about it without turning into a complete fanboy. Seriously, Eva Green needs all the awards and every actor on this show manages to be riveting. I don't know how or why they do it, but they do. The finale was just ... wow. So many moments on this show that something happened and hit me like a giant fist to the brain. It's much more than the initial advertisements made it seem. Artistically, I'd rank it right alongside Hannibal and True Detective. Bonus: there is no proper Penny Dreadful forum out there as far as I've seen.
And I love Sleepy Hollow; it's basically no-hold-bars cheesetastic US history fan fiction in audiovisual form.
Above, I voted for Constantine, Gotham, Sleepy Hollow, Elementary, and Penny Dreadful, but I do watch a lot of other shows, as evidenced by this thread: Shows We Will Like/Will Give a Chance. There is a lot of stuff coming out this fall and a lot of genre stuff already out! My 'to-watch' list is gigantic.
Edited to add: Wow, I'm not the only person I know who has watched ReGenesis!
