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.

It looked interesting. Glad to hear it's turning out. It's on the list next time I pick up apple tv+

I know some people who really like the books it is based on.

That was me. My brother got me to give it a shot, I didn’t want to at first, but decided to watch a few episodes and just couldn’t stop after that and give it a rewatch a few months later. After you finish season 3, the main actor does an interview that I was lucky to stumble across. This interview is a bonus if you were also a fan of The Sopranos.

The problem is that they just went so long between seasons over those last 3 that it really killed the momentum for me.

I should watch it.

I just haven't. It's hard to get that inertia back.
Same for me , almost forgot about it .

The BB/BCS universe is my favorite though.
Agreed on this.

Also agreed on True Detective S1. Nothing, NOTHING is as good as that. Not The Wire. Nothing. S2 was very meh but it seemed worse because of the standards of S1. S3 was actually really good and I'm excited for S4 with Jodie Foster.

Have you watched Fargo (the TV version)? That's just outside my top 5 but stacks up in pure enjoyment against anything.

Love True Detective S1 and Fargo S1 but for some reason when the manga n characters changes I lose interest , would have to try s2 for both again

Can't remember if it has been discussed here, but I've been watching Shrinking and I really like it. Ford and Jessica Williams are up here throwing 100MPH the whole time. I'm not the biggest Jason Segal fan, but he's hanging in there, and it works for what they're trying to do. They're going after some godDAMN serious subject matter...with a comedy (?) and it seems to be working. So far (4 episodes in) they're doing a decent job of balancing the goofball shit with serious stuff, and delineating the two.

I admittedly wasn't expecting much, but it has me hooked. We'll see how they navigate the storylines, but I'm pretty impressed so far.

Homeland-ish vibes. Looks like this will be really enjoyable.
I was a little reluctant to watch this show only because my friend was killed in the 1983 Marine Barracks bombing and I thought they were going to show more details of that, but I’m glad they didn’t. Glad I watched it. I always enjoy Dermot Mulroney‘s movies/TV shows. He did a great job in this. I had to google the CIA agent he was portraying to see what actually happened to him.

Normally the shit is pretty easy to see, but this did a decent enough job of keeping the twists hidden. You have to suspend some disbelief, but not so much that it takes you out of it.

Olga Kurylenko still does it for me. She’s getting older and they tried (pretty successfully) to make her look haggard, but for whatever reason she still trips my trigger.
Just fired that one up. Can confirm Olga is still hot as balls.

Just finished The Night Agent. I was pleasantly surprised. They didn't reinvent the wheel of political thrillers, but it kept me pulled in the entire way through. Would recommend.

I thought it was a phenomenal true story that I knew absolutely nothing about. I grew up hearing about the marine barracks bombing but clearly didn't know the backstory or the significance of it. I only wish this had been more than 4 episodes as it was really solid.

And sorry for the loss of your friend - I can totally understand how that might have made you more reluctant to watch it at the outset.

I enjoyed Shrinking on Apple TV+ as well. That series went by too fast.

3 episodes into the crowded room on apple. Tom Holland can act his ass off. This is the third of his I’ve seen where he plays a complete degen flawlessly. Cherry? I think. And one other on Netflix

One gripe with the crowded room ..

Has Apple taken the #2 spot for original series?

HBO is obviously the top dog. And then I think it has to be Apple, with Prime coming in third. I barely even log into Netflix nowadays, and will probably eventually drop it

The Righteous Gemstones starts off great.

I’m sick and tired of seeing you moping around the house all day pretending like your Born on the Fourth of July or somethin’.
