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?

Yeah, it did feel like they decided to try for a season 2 at the last minute and the episode was just off. Hopefully the second season isn't just a shitty money grab rehash of season 1. [Reply]
I really am digging Squid Game after 2 episodes. It feels somewhat original, even if a few parts have been done before. It feels expensive thanks to the scale of some sequences, and the overall lovely cinematography. A really nice palete cleanser for the disappointment of Ted Lasso, and a great show to get me through until Succession and The Boys show back up. Speaking of great shows, where the hell is Barry?

Thanks.
I'll give it a look. I'm currently watching The Legend of El Cid (I still don't know what to think of it LOL) dubbed while I'm doing other things. It's pretty well done, I'll probably give Squid Games a chance that way. [Reply]

My wife is obsessing over this show. I don't think i enjoyed it as much as most seem to. I thought it was good. Aight. It wouldn't rank in my top 5, idk. [Reply]
