Media Center>Must Watch Series
Buehler445 08:54 AM 04-26-2012
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?

UPDATED for the shows I've seen recently.

For All Mankind on AppleTV? I haven't checked the thread to see if it's in it , but was wondering if it's worth watching.
I lost interest in Season 2.

Season 1 was pretty interesting if you like the alternate history stuff like Man in the High Castle.

But for whatever reason, I got bored of it the further down the road they went.

Have you tried Paradise on Hulu? Really really good. Only 5 episodes in though.

That's my problem. I can watch an entire season of 30-minute shows in one night. There's a lot of new stuff out there but there's just not enough volume.

You need to play more video games.

It's not even that, I don't think although I am still suffering a bit from finally finishing the Mass Effect trilogy. I'm not sure I will ever have a gaming experience like that again.

I just don't seem to have the focus or drive to want to pickup a controller and interact. After working all day, it's much easier to enjoy passive entertainment.

Ah, I picked up the Hitman world of assassination when it was on sale, it's pretty good.

Bookies is A+... One of the funnies shows I have watched in a long while. I am actually surprised that Chuck Lorre and Charlie Sheen are working together again.

I tried to watch friends from college. Roughly my age, I like Cobie Smoulders, there are some funny but it’s way over the top and I couldn’t get into the cheating angle.

Maybe it was too close to home in terms of the ages, places in life, pop culture references that I couldn’t look past the ridiculousness.

I wasn’t a fan of

Still #TeamJavad

Then again, I find Markus to be charming and effective. My moral compass is pretty obviously on the blink. But I like him WAY more than Tomas.

"It's a rough town, people go missing all the time..."

THAT'S what I want out of my head of security! Attaboy Javad, just doing your portion my guy!

And for the record, Peter is just fucking awful at his job. I mean the damn worst. Seriously buddy, a bullet tire and you can't manage to keep the van on the road? And you just clubbed the ever loving fuck out of my boy Javad but didn't take his gun from him?

They're also doing that thing where they use really bad exposition to explain away story points. Right before Kathering finds him at his apartment my wife says "Why wouldn't they check his apartment" and I say "Well why would they even know where it is? Only he and Rose would've been there -- he wouldn't have told Katherine about it..."

She shows up, pulls a gun on him and he says "Man, I knew I shouldn't have told you where this place was...."

Oh fuck me. I even called out how god-awful stupid that would be before it happened, the writers KNEW it would be god-awful stupid so they had to put a line of exposition in there to explain it. And then he says "shoot me" and I'm sitting there thinking "Wait a minute, she'd fucking shoot him. Like. that's the foundation of her character..."

Of course she doesn't.

Maybe I don't like Javad as much as I just really do not like the protagonists at all.

That's the best part of a show like this. Nobody is the good guy. You alternate between loving and hating every character. You feel sorry for them because they got fucked and then they turn around and fuck someone else and you realize they're just people being flawed people.

Yeah, I've been watching Orange is the New Black.
