This series channels the vibrancy and energy of the era, but also the dark reality of the business which it chronicles. Written with a strong, poignant storyline and a cast of unique characters which you can only find in the world of organized crime. This show kept me interested all series, but truly enraptured me in the last season which was extremely satisfying.

Featuring a great cast of vibrant and unforgettable characters, 30 Rock is a great comedy with a unique brand of humour that is refreshing and never gets stale.

A fake news program which satirizes the daily headlines with a focus on politics. The BEST show of its kind, The Daily Show is always fresh and funny. Never feels preachy just informative and fun.

This series is what you would expect it to be. The show is a shallow sham which trivializes the institution of marriage and tries to give instant gratification to a process which requires hard work, vulnerability and a level of intimacy which are not priorities on this show supposedly about love.

A great original comedy with an amazing cast of actors that was under appreciated when it first came out. Reprised years later by Netflix, the show lost its flow and took some time to find its feet in the 4th season. Likely it will never be the same again.

A high school drama that relies on substance and personal growth to drive plot lines rather than the attractiveness and outlandish behaviour of other shows of its kind.

A very unique brand of comedy that seeks to push the boundaries on many social issues through both legal cases and character interaction. Boston Legal is a fun legal drama that really tries to make you think while having fun and always doing it in its own special way.

A typical sitcom with its own brand of humour that sparked a major following much dedicated to the brash behaviour of a couple of the characters. This investment in the unique humour carried fans through the plot from a promising beginning to a puttered out and over extended ending. Ultimately a funny show, but one which dragged on for much too long.

A political drama that explores the darker side of politics in British Parliament, House of Cards manages to create a believable yet fantastic story of one mans unstoppable rise to power. With a great anti-hero lead, an unpredictable plot, and a fast pace, this is a must watch. (Also adapted as an American Netflix series starring Kevin Spacey)

A classic sitcom with loveable characters and memorable moments that you can watch again and again without ever getting tired of it.
