Okay, I'm about to hit a binge watching cycle...but what should I watch? I know there are shows out there and I need a recommendation from you all...but there are some shows I will not watch and for clarification purposes the following is what I will not add to my binge list (reasons why will follow):
-Supernatural (I watch it on the CW website)
-The Walking Dead (over-hyped show, didn't interest me half-way through episode one)
-Doctor Who (waiting for the next season...and I already have it on my list)
-Sherlock (Have it on the list already)
-Game of Thrones (Over-Hyped show)
-Daredevil (Have it on the list already)
Any other suggestions, I'm all ears for it. And believe me, if I don't get interested from episode 1...I'm not going to add it (or if I caught a later episode and it still didn't interest me, I'm still not going to add it [Game of Thrones & The Walking Dead]).
This is going to be difficult, given I don't know what your interests are (and all those shows you've listed are also on my do-not-watch list).
I've seen a show on Netflix called Bloodline, about a so-called Black Sheep who comes back to his family's resort and I guess tries to make amends. (I've only seen the first three or four episodes)
There's also Mysteries at the Museum, where they take certain artifacts and talk about the story behind them. It only has Season 2 up, given it's one of those shows that switches out seasons.
And if you've never seen Season 4 of Arrested Development, that's on there. There's also Breaking Bad, which is about a teacher dying of cancer who sells meth to provide for his family. (You know Hal from Malcolm in the Middle? He plays the teacher, and yes, it's quite a change in role for him)
I don't know if any of those are of interest to you, but they are suggestions.
I've watched a ton of Netflix and I would totally reccomend:
One Tree Hill 5/5
Gossip Girl 5/5
Friday Night Lights 3/5
Prison Break 4/5
White Collar 4/5
Breaking Bad 3/5
Arrow 4/5
Dexter 4/5
Vampire Diaries 3/5
New Girl 5/5
House 4/5
Bates Motel 2/5
Parks and Recreation 4/5
American Horror Story (Season 1) 4/5
Pretty Little Liars 4/5
Lost 5/5
This does seem like a lot so I'll narrow it down to my top 5 from that list (I've watched way more than what's listed.):
Lost
Gossip Girl
Arrow
Prison Break
Arrow
Parks and Rec/New Girl
(I know there is 6 I just couldn't pick only 5.)
edit: added personal ratings to all shows 1-5
Inspector Gadget... I'm serious it's really hilarious especially with Dr. Claw being still evil but almost inept as Inspector Gadget himself, and Chief Quimby getting blown up by the message is still as funny as ever. roflroflrofl
Black Mirror. So good. So hidden outside of the UK. I've yet to find a hater.
Only six episodes (seven counting the "Christmas special"wink, each around an hour to an hour and a half. Had to resist the urge to finish them all in one sitting.
