I generally don’t do top 10 lists because, frankly, I can’t remember what TV Show or Movie I watched last night that alone more than a month ago. I like shows that are “messy,” or “different,” so my picks aren’t necessarily “emmy” worthy selections but shows that I actually watch on a regular basis. Why I watch Gotham is beyond me, but there’s something about it that keeps me tuning in. I keep thinking, I hate this, but I can’t turn away – it has so much potential! Gah!
My new obsession is The CW Network’s amazing show The 100 which I discovered over the summer and binge watched over the course of a weekend – twice. So here are my picks in no particular order and without further commentary from me.
The 100
12 Monkeys
Fargo
Discovery ID’s Fatal Vows
Salem
Scream Queens
Gotham
The Fosters
Daredevil
Orphan Black
Super Girl
Supernatural
Mr. Robot
Grimm
Vikings
Outlander
Ash Vs. Evil Dead
Discovery ID’s Unusual Suspects
Chasing Life
Blindspot
American Greed
Blood & Oil
Manhattan
Finding Carter
The Expanse
Into The Badlands
Black Sails
————————————–
Shows that I’ve finally given up on or have been disappointed by:
- The Walking Dead
- Arrow
- Scandal
- Teen Wolf is Teetering
- Awkward’s final season was terrible and seemed to last 3 yrs.
- The Fosters – while it was one of my favorite shows and obsessions last year, I don’t like the direction Season 3 is going in. Hoping this break let them right the ship.
- Faking It – Loved the first season, but MTV’s weird scheduling has ruined this show.
Once a gain, significant overlap, but here you have a few shows that I couldn’t bring myself to like (Finding Carter, Blood & Oil, American Green, Changing Life, Unlikely Suspects, The Fosters and Fatal Vows.
On the other hand,we both enjoyed The Expanse, Manhattan, Blindspot, Ash vs. Evil Dead, Outlander, Vikings, Mr. Robot, Supernatural, Supergirl, Orphan Black, Daredevil, The Fosters, Gotham, Scream Queens, Salem, Fargo and 12 Monkeys – I love season 1 and haven’t finished Season Two yet,
So we’re doing okay – though I really don’t understand Blood & Oil which nose dived after the entirely tolerable pilot.
