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?

Her answer to being indicted on several felony charges and getting slapped with $300K in restitution fines was to get a richer boyfriend and have new, bigger fake cans put in.
THAT'S MY KIND OF CRAZY RIGHT THERE!
Woman knows how to work it. You know she's breaking your brain before she destroys your credit and exacerbates your alcoholism.

If she's self-branding my name into her flesh I'm at least dropping her at O.city's for an afternoon
Anyone watching Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist?
Admittedly its a lot of Kevin Hart. Like Kevin Hart making his cocked-head-look in every other scene a lot, but Samuel L Jackson is delivering and Don Cheadle is killing his role
I'm like 4 or 5 episodes in and its enjoyable [Reply]

Also, Bad Monkey, also on Apple+, with Vince Vaughn doing his glib talking, is pretty entertaining.
I watched the first 3 or 4 episodes of Bad Monkey. Ran out of new episodes and decided to wait a few weeks until it's done. I liked it. Vince Vaughns schtick still works. The settings are fun. A bit of mystery to it. The coroner lady is hot [Reply]

Agreed. It’s worth watching it for this version of Vince Vaughn alone. He was deeply missed. [Reply]
I'm sure it's been discussed in here plenty but I don't remember ever seeing it when I do check this thread. I finally just got around to watching The Last Kingdom and thought it was flat out amazing. For most it's probably not quite Game of Thrones level and certainly wasn't in popularity, but I put it up there. I actually prefer the loosely accurate historical parts of the show and the lack of the magic/dragons of TLK more than GOT. And Uhtred was just an awesome character. Really bummed I've finished it but will definitely watch again. [Reply]

Actually just watched it tonight! Not as good as a whole season and felt rushed and kinda lacked the normal depth of the story, but good nonetheless and a nice cap to the whole series. Might check out Vikings now and stay in that same genre but TLK will be tough to beat. [Reply]
