He takes a long time to grow on you for sure but I still enjoyed it until the end. Ole Busted is a another story.
lol i still love the over the top everything so im watching regardless. i guess ill graduate to game of thrones one offseason.
You should, especially if you've never read the books. I'm sure it would be the best show ever made if not for the books. I'm not sure I'm going to continue watching it though because it's deviated so much and really badly. But seasons 1-4 are really good.
Just so you know, your favorite blonde loves "shameless " I have never watched more than 30 seconds of it but she loves it
Some series not mentioned... Deadwood (great), The Newsroom, Sleeper Cell and Strike Back (down on the list but entertaining), Justified (Amazon - I love this series), House of Cards (netflix), The Killing (netflix), and Daredevil (netflix). If you like SciFy - Continuum, Defiance, The 100, and 12 Monkeys (this one is great). Of course the classics - Dexter, Sons of Anarchy, and Breaking Bad.
Deadwood is a good one, so was Rome. I like Justified too but I like anything with Tim Olyphant or Walton Goggins.
Speaking of TV series' I know a lot of people on here loved The Wire. Did you know Avon Barksdale was based on a real kingpin from Baltimore named Barksdale? http://www.rollingstone.com/tv/news...-kingpin-wire-inspiration-dead-at-54-20160216 By the way, here is a piece of shit that I'm glad finally gets to meet his maker. Scumbag.
I did...there are a ton of stories based on real events through the directors' experiences in Baltimore. Also a ton of former students and criminals they helped along the way were casted in the show.
