I’m getting close to where I feel like I’ve seen about everything, but I know that’s not the case. I continue to find shows in that 2002-2018 range that I never really knew about. Raising damn kids put a bad crimp in my tv watching back during that stretch.

Some of the things I’ve already watched completely or started and lost interest in:

Night Agent
GoT
Blacklist
Shooter
Florida Man
Obsession
Lincoln Lawyer
Narcos
Narcos Mexico
All the Yellowstone spin-offs
Outer Banks
In From The Cold
Behind Her Eyes
Dark
The Recruit
Beef
The Sinner
Breaking Bad
Better Call Saul
Peaky Blinders
Shameless
The Bear
You
Ozark
Orange & Black
Mindhunter
Jack Ryan
Reacher
The Terminal List
Night Sky
Goliath
Bosch
Hanna
Homeland
The Shield
Letterkenny
The Old Man
Barry
Silicon Valley
Mare of Easttown
Ted Lasso
The Morning Show
Tehran
Invasion
Severance
Black Bird
Rabbit Hole
Mayor of Kingstown
Tulsa King
Mr Inbetween
White Lotus
Righteous Gemstones
Vice Principals

You went straight through? I had never watched and started a few months back. I really enjoyed it. But after season 2 or 3 I needed a break. Wasn’t interested in it anymore. Haven’t picked it back up. Maybe I should try again.

So the question would be what have you seen or are currently watching?

Because we could probably trot out a list with bullet points but need to know what you have/haven’t.

Yes, straight through over the course of 1.5-2 months. I usually lose interest on anything as long as this show, but it never lost me.

The Americans is the best ever.

And for those that disagree, there's little question they absolutely stuck the landing.

The series finale is quite possibly the best of all time.

Most have seen it , but if you haven't check out Firefly from 2002. Only 14 episodes before it was abruptly cancelled but the most fun show ever, IMHO of course.
