All this talk about series, how network TV Sucks, and how hard it is to find quality shows, and some excellent shows that fly under the radar, I need a comprehensive review of all the series I need to see.
For good entertainment, I would be willing to buy DVD sets. But I've recently picked up HBOGO by kiping it from my parents, and recently got Netflix and Amazon Prime.
Here is a listing of shows that I currently own or have seen all the episodes of. If it isn't on the list, just assume I haven't seen it.

I work a fuckton, so it is hard for me catch a series while it is on to get it on the DVR, but I recognize the entertainment value and am willing to go after the Must See shows. Accordingly, I'm not necessarily looking for anything that is still running. I'm up for watching stuff that has run its course.
So what say you, Planet? Which shows should I see?
Now that I finally have Netflix, I'm into episode six of The Last Dance and damn its good... reminds me of why I used to love basketball so much, what an incredible era that was [Reply]

The first season started pretty decent but got flat fucking ridiculous LOL. I enjoyed it, but holy mother of over the fucking top.
I started S 2. It's better than S1. Hopefully it can finish.
I will say the main dude cannot run. And they keep making him do it. I've never seen anything like it. I wasn't any kind of elite runner or anything, but that dude is just swinging appendages. Never did I long for Tom Cruise sprint. [Reply]

I finished it up last night and it held my interest.
I am now 5 episodes into Severance but I dunno if I'll stick it out on this one. I guess I don't get the attraction. [Reply]
Plowed through Bodkin the past couple days. It started off great, the characters were quirky but likable, and then it seemed to try and take it in a different direction in the 3rd episode. I found myself losing interest, but finished it anyways hoping the ending would tie it all together, but it fell flat. [Reply]

That’s funny I haven’t noticed his running but will definitely look for it when I get to starting season 2. [Reply]
