Must Watch Series

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.

Here is a listing of shows on my list to watch (mostly due to this thread)
Spoiler!



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.

Only one of the best series ever made. It goes in my top 10 of all-time for sure.

Yes.

Absolutely.

It's fantastic.

But it isn't a light easy watch. I ended up turning on CC solely for the fact I didn't have to use as much brainpower to decode the accent.

Watch it. There is literally no downside other than you'll walk around wanting to yell PEAKY ****-IN BLINDAS, and it turns out that isn't necessarily socially acceptable.

It was unique for sure. It was definitely a callout to those who latched on and enjoyed the power fantasy of Barry's first 2 seasons (and in general to people in the audience who glom on to anti-hero power fantasy stories like Breaking Bad or The Shield). Hader basically said "here you go sickos". I knew right away Gene made a huge mistake
Spoiler!
. All in all, I still thought season 4 was great, but I could have done without the moralizing of the last two seasons from Hader, who had crafted such a brilliant universe.

Just finished The Wire. Amazing show. If you are one of those like me who hadn’t watched it yet do it. You won’t regret it. So many deep and complex themes along with great execution.

Yeah, one of my favorite shows ever.

It goes up and down a bit, I think it was the third season with the Russian family that was damn near impossible to follow. But season 4 was just so damn good that it sucked me right back in and the momentum was more than enough to power it through an up and down season 5 and very satisfying season 6.

So Seasons 1 and 2 will be more than enough to keep you watching - don't let season 3 bury you - season 4 and beyond is good but really all 6 seasons are worth it just for season 4 alone, IMO. It was just outstanding.

BTW, it's funny that there's so many "series finales" this year due to the writers strike. The producers want to wrap it up before everything goes to shit.

Pretty sure that all of these shows had planned to end long before the writers' strike was an inevitability.

Right. All these have been written, filmed, edited, and released.

What the writers were working on in terms of TV won't be released for at least a year.

I'm not sure I'd go with 'unique' unless you mean the final 5 minutes. And really, I think that was done just to satirize hollywood writ large; something that Gene's entire character (and Sally's character arc) has done from the jump.

But I do think they landed the plane well. It was a satisfying conclusion. I'm not sure there's anything I'd have done differently except maybe:

Yeah, I think I was referring to the final 5 minutes. Was just a nice little twist.

And agreed on your spoiler. He deserved better. Absolutely hysterical character the entire way through.

I think the best part of the final season was Fuches Raven stuff. That part in the prison when he was giving out nicknames just slayed me. Then picking up the barista when he got out of prison. Awesome.

I didn't search too much within the thread - but how's "Safe" being received? - I'm about 75 percent into epi 1 and it seems like it could go either way.
