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?

Seems Jenna Ortega nails the role. The Thing steals a lot of the show.
It is a little campy type kids school genre similar to Hogwarts themes.
The cinematography great, down to the makeup. It is directed by Tim Burton, which illustrates some of the tenor and the humor sublime.
Worth a watch...
I haven't watched it yet, but it appears to have reached about everywhere.:-)
I watched the first few seasons. It's pretty decent. The bondage/kink stuff was weird. But it was good enough to keep me engaged. I should probably go finish it up. [Reply]

Yeah, that part is weird and the "Non Binary" Taylor had me scratching my head, but it is hard not to be intrigued by "it's character."
A million dollars is chump change to these people.

Yeah, when I quit, it had just started it's own fund and was still pretty compelling.
Given how many seasons it went after that it's hard for me to believe it didn't get pretty derivative given how far they went with each character in the first few seasons, but it's earned the right for me to get back to it. [Reply]
