Media Center>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)

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?

UPDATED for the shows I've seen recently.

Lasso is good. It’s definitely a show I should hate. But it balances it well enough it keeps me hooked.

Somehow they managed to make a show about the most boring sport on earth entertaining.

A couple of things - I wonder how many people who watch this know that Wichita State doesn't have a football team. And damn, is the average Brit as salty as this show portrays? Jesus, pretty much everybody other than Ted and Coach sounds like a limey version of Tommy from Goodfellas. It's funny, but.... wow. Any little kid who watches this by mistake will immediately start calling everybody twats and wankers. :-)

And the biggest shock - I knew I recognized the female owner, but couldn't place her. Checked her out on IMDb, and she played the septa in Game of Thrones that terrorized Cersei. Who knew that she was actually hot?
Be curious, not judgemental.

First season of Ted Lasso was gold, but I didn't get on with the 2nd season at all.

Tangential to Lasso, Welcome to Wrexham is FINALLY HERE!!

Part reality show, part mockumentary, but I dont' sense it's scripted for comedy or drama or particularly, so much as edited after the fact.

Rob McElhenny and Ryan Reynolds purchase an historic if underachieving [5th tier ENL] soccer franchise and document what they go through as new owners in a new season.

I think they’re secretly brothers in real life. They look a lot alike now that I see them paired together. :-)

Five Days at Memorial on Apple.

A New Orleans hospital’s experience during Katrina. Wow. It’s a true horror film. Absolutely heart-wrenching story and terrific acting.

Another Coen staple, a random dumbass giving advice that could have averted the entire tragic narrative to come.
If you liked Beignet Mitch;

[haven't seen it yet, just the trailer, . . . and then Stern channel had a replay when The Party Bros came on the show yesterday]

Finally started Black Bird and the first two episodes are really promising. Didn’t know the score was from Mogwai going in which was a nice surprise.

So...i'd probably skip on Devil in Ohio. Wife and I gave it a go looking for a new thriller/horror/supernatural type show.

Fucking snooze fest.

The Patient with Steve Carrell (Hulu/FX) is pretty solid, though the episodes are way too short at sub-30 minutes.

Also watched the first episode of American Gigolo (Showtime). I'm a big Jon Bernthal fan and he's great in this.

Season preview from a couple weeks back. . . [gives peeks at what's to come, as a preview does, so decide for yourself if that whets your appetite or spoils the story to come]

The new quantum Leap is pure trash. It won’t last long.
