It's binge-watching season

The Orange County Register says It's binge-watching season: Here are 45 TV series you should plan on seeing . "To help with your binge decision-making, we’ve produced this handy list of the 25 series from the past year or so that you really ought to see. Once you’re caught up, we’ve tacked on the five classics you must see as well as 15 less-well-known gems from years back that you might have missed."

I've seen a lot of these, the ones I haven't seen are in italics.

I'd have Deadwood, Game of Thrones and Dexter somewhere on here. I've most recently watched the first season of Hannibal and it's good, though it's so dark it's hard to binge more than 2 at a time.
