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?

I was rooting for her death in the Dark Knight.
She was doable in that movie with James Spader.
But yeah, she was dogbeast ugly in Dark Knight, that's for damn sure. I can't think of anything else she's been in but needless to say, she's not a natural beauty... [Reply]
I noticed it was making some waves over in Britain, but now it's coming to Netflix.
There is a gripping clip below [don't click if you don't want spoiled], that suggest some top notch action. Buut the trailer suggests more soap opera fare. Any takes on the quality of the show?
Watched all the series and can't wait for the next season.

now this reboot, is actually closer to a documentary than satire.
i was bored AF, so i watched the first season the other week. i loved the tongue n cheek humor. there are obviously issues with the acting, but for whatever reason this show cliqued with me :-)

Saw it. I was impressed. It threw some damned haymakers that I wasn't expecting.
Writing was solid and kept me guessing until the last 5 minutes. Acting was pretty good, especially by the main character. Production is really good. Nothing hugely expensive but what it undertook it did well.
