I watch too much to list it all so will likely miss some stuff

Game of thrones, Westworld, The Night of - All of these were really good shows.

Better call Saul, Mr Robot Vikings, House of Cards   - All had seasons that were not as good as was expecting, disappointing

Daredevil, TBBT, The Walking Dead - All returning shows that were good enough, but not as must watch as before.

New shows

Limitless was my favorite and it got cancelled! Watching Timeless, as someone else said, it's ok, but nothing that makes you feel or think too hard.  Designated Survivor has been good, I don't think I will sign on to watch multiple seasons though.

And that's it. I don't watch much TV anymore. Stranger Things and GoT were both fantastic though.

I still haven't seen Stranger Things, going to try to binge it over the next couple weeks.

Good luck keeping that timeline.  I sat down one Sunday to watch one or two episodes, and I ended up watching the entire thing.

Yeah well you were right. I watched 5 Stranger Things in a row then the last 3 the next day...was a really well done show, pretty face paced and still got you involved in the characters.

Spoiler

I didn't like the way Will spit up that leach thing at the end. Obvious set up for another season. I think I would prefer that this just ended. I do like that she ended up with the jerk instead of the camera guy, nice little switch up.

Now on to Sense 8. Only 2 episodes into it so far. Will have to see if it gets better, right now it's a little jerky because they're trying to tie in all the characters.

A post regarding The Crown and Sense8

Sense8 for me will always be one of the best shows even with some of the flaws for the mere idea of people coming together. Between Brexit and Trump's isolationist politics, this show seems to live on idea that we can be brought together. In Christmas time, there is nothing more important than that.

The Crown was intelligently put together after Downton Abbey finished because the two shows share more than the Netflix producers would care to admit. The Crown is not too political, it is personal, it is about growing up, taking up responsibilities and duties. About marriage. Simpy, with Downton Abbey gone, it is the best soap opera on TV :D

Sense8 definitely improves after the first episode or two. You become more and more invested in the character and their relationships with one another. Once it finds its footing I think it becomes a really really wonderful show

I don't even watch that many shows to begin with, but here goes-

1. Better Call Saul - Almost forgot about it because of how it came out at the beginning if the year, but the writing is just as good as Breaking bad ever was, somehow elevating simple meandering life activity into high tragedy. 

2. Westworld - It was the show I was most looking forward too, and while it was disappointing on some fronts, overall the mystery had me enthralled from beginning to end.

3. Stranger Things - After everyone and their mom recommended me to watch this thing, I had to give it a look - and it did not disappoint. I didn't grow up in the eighties, but its nostalgia was potent nonetheless. 

4. Last Week Tonight with John Oliver - This guy is the new John Stewart, I love his work and honestly can't wait for more.

5. The Walking Dead - Yeah yeah the show is the same thing over and over again, you're going to stop watching after every episode etc. But the fact that these haters keep on coming back must mean the show is doing something right. 

6. Game of Thrones - The writing has fully embraced the stupidity of season 5, but at least at this point its entertaining, and to finally see what happens next as a book reader was worth it despite the flaws of this season.

I've also gotta come back in here and update my list--last time I did so was back in September. I've watched so much good stuff since then--Westworld, all three season of Black Mirror, Vikings S4.1 & TWD S7.1. I'm also gonna try to hammer out Peaky Blinder S3 and/or Man in the High Castle S2 before the year ends.

They've really ramped up the crazy in season 3, and I'm loving it.  Only non-Netflix superhero I'm still watching.

Gotham S2 left me feeling blah about the series. I've yet to start S3. Maybe in 2017. I'm still sticking with Flash, but I'm only on S3E4 though.
