Must Watch Series

[Buehler445]

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 ****ton, 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.

Shows like this usually start answering things in the final season. I'm not too concerned about it. I'm not the type that needs answers for every single thing, though.

I'm interested to know what you think of S2.

I think I'm 4 episodes in and its been action packed. They were in Afganistan running down her heritage/truths whatever you'd like to call it. Now they're back in the states. We'll see if it holds up. So far its been fantastic though.

They have to give you some payoff or you end up with Lost.
