My two cents on almost every show I've ever watched

I'm clearly scraping the bottom of the barrel for post ideas. But this is something I feel like writing.

Here's an alphabetical list of most of the shows I have watched a significant portion of, and my brief opinion on each.


Better Call Saul


Off to a good start, can't wait to see where it takes us.


Bones


Come for the mysteries, stay for the tortuous slow-burn romance between Brennan and Booth.


Breaking Bad


My all time favorite show. Masterful in every aspect. This show will affect you and stay with you.


Firefly


A shame it was cancelled; brilliant show, fantastic aesthetic.


Game of Thrones 


Addicting; it's good, but sometimes repulsing. You'll stay for the characters, though. 


Heroes 


Season 1 is quite good. Please don't watch much beyond that, though.


House of Cards (U.S.)  


A little dark and overly serious for my taste, but Kevin Spacey.


How I Met Your Mother 


A good show, not entirely ruined by its crappy ending.


Lie To Me


I would have liked for this to continue; great concept, good drama.


Lost


Season 1 is gorgeous. After that, it becomes a little muddled.


The Office (U.S.)


Hilarious, though sometimes cringe-worthy. Jim and Pam's relationship is what makes it for me.


Orange Is The New Black


Fantastic show, a little aimless, but a wonderful character study.


Orphan Black


I love what this show stands for and what it is, but they kind of lost me in season 3. 


Parks and Rec 


Cute, funny, wholly unoffensive; a wonderful journey from start to finish.


Scandal 


The drama is tantalizing but the plot quickly becomes ridiculous.


Sense8


A little bit of a let-down, but I'll give season 2 a shot for the concept.


Shameless (U.S.)


At times, very funny and heartbreaking. Was worth the watch up until this past season.


Sherlock (BBC)


Very good show, if you can handle it in small infrequent doses.


Twin Peaks


Quirky, scary, fun; but absolutely nose-dived halfway through season 2.


The West Wing


Some of the best dialogue I've seen on TV; mostly lighthearted and fun.
