Must Watch TV Series - Part 1

I'm starting a new series of articles today. Let's assume you're pretty new to the world of tv series and having a hard time deciding the list of "must watch tv series." I'll try to help you through this article.

Remember, this list contains my personal recommendations and isn't a list of best-rated tv shows. You can find those type of lists of "IMDB."

I started exploring the world of tv shows back in 2010. I was fond of Hollywood movies from my childhood. Somebody recommended this show called "Sherlock." I neglected that recommendation as I wasn't much into tv shows. Later, another friend recommended the same show and that's how it all started.

1. Sherlock

Couldn't find a better show to start the list. Sherlock is love, Sherlock is life. A modern-day adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's world famous detective stories. Combine that with Benedict Cumberbatch's (or, is it Wimbledon Tennis-match?) portraying of the "high functioning sociopath" and you get a tv series, the world is mad about.

Current Running Season - 4th season with only one episode remaining.

2. Stranger Things

With the exception of a few series, everything that Netflix touches, becomes gold. So when I first saw that Netflix was producing a TV series with the genre being "horror", I was sceptical at first. But as usual, it blew my mind. It starts with a typical plot - "boy gone missing and friends begin searching" but the following incidents will surely haunt you at night for quite a significant amount of time.

Current Running Season - The 1st season is finished now with the next season being slated to start in July.

3. House Of Cards

Another win for Netflix. A political drama at its finest. But when big names like Kevin Spacey and Kate Mara are attached with a TV series, things can rarely go south. If you're still not convinced then let me remind you that David Fincher (Fight Club, Se7en, The Social Network) had directed a few episodes also.

Current Running Season - There have been 4 seasons till now with season 5 coming in late February or early March.

4. Daredevil

Made in collaboration between Netflix and Marvel, this is one blo*dy brilliant show. The story revolves around Matthew Murdock, a brilliant blind advocate by the day and a protector of New-York city at night as Daredevil. This show has everything - a good story, a villain worth admiring and another vigilante, Frank Castle aka the Punisher.

Current Running Season - There have been 2 seasons till now with the next one being currently slated for 2018.

As you can see, I'm a little bit biased towards Netflix. It's not my fault, it's Netflix's as they have been making such great TV shows for quite some time now.
