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?
Binging The Night Of. Awesome so far. Only a few episodes in. Love John T and Michael Williams. Maybe I'm nuts but I feel like the deer's head is somehow significant. They kept cutting to it in a few scenes. [Reply]

I binged watched MadMen summer 2015. It's not that good at first—then the characters starts to grow on you. [Reply]

First season was okay. Little rough at times. Second season was good. Whole thing was solid enough that I binged all 20 eps in a weekend. Third season hits in a month [Reply]
Yeah, I really enjoyed it. Can anyone recommend something similar? And its a shame that Michael K. Williams doesn't have more recognition. The only time I remember seeing him outside of HBO was in The Road for a couple of minutes. [Reply]

I might have to check it out. I kinda instinctively shy away from netflix/amazon/hulu series. Seems like they would be B or C quality compared to major networks. Maybe its time I give some a chance. [Reply]
