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?

Watch Vikings for sure. It’s a much different tone. But awesome also.
And unfortunately nobody gets called an assling. [Reply]
Succession sounds very boring but is the best HBO show since the early game of thrones. Get through a few episodes and learn the characters. Amazing writing [Reply]

Listen, this should suck. But I like it. It might suck, but I'm in.
The cast alone is incredible. Saw the trailer for it earlier today and the reviews were so middling that I’m not sure I can get there, but I’m curious where you shake out.
Seasons 2 of Panchinko and Old Man are in progress and that’s a tough group to top during football season. [Reply]
