A guy goes mad and has visions, except they’re real people.
Decent, with occasional awesomeness between cringeworthy moments of “let’s see if we can put this shit in a show”. Oh, and it’s no wonder, it’s from “The Wachowskis”. I’m just going to let this die.

Though an author tags along with the police because a particular detective is particularly hot, it turns out he’s actually helpful.
I adore this series, even though it gets repetitive later on.
If I get to re-watching things, I’ll add notes.
Abandoned – ABC doesn’t list it any more.

Upon contact with aliens, humans set up a space station to promote ambassadorial relations among species.
Easily among the best television I’ve seen. Everything about this series is phenomenal: acting, stories, sets, etc. Unfortunately, the graphics do appear dated in places, but it otherwise holds up very well.
Mandatory viewing.

A money-desperate high school teacher and miscreant former-student enter the drug trade, which begins to consume them.
Breaking Bad is one of those uncomfortable-yet-riveting shows. While awesome for what it is, I don’t generally recommend it.
I did watch it, and I’m mostly happy I did, but it doesn’t leave a nice streak-free gloss on my memory. I guess that was the point.
The lawyer Saul got his own spinoff show, Better Call Saul – (2015 show)

Inappropriately rated: Has drug addiction and related.

A space-western with a motley down-and-out crew struggling on the edge of a semi-dystopian planet-spanning civilization.
Easily one of the best television shows I’ve ever seen. I don’t just consider this mandatory, I will dog people to watch it. I bought two copies of this series just to give one away.
Let me stress this. This is a series so good that even after cancellation there was enough popularity to produce a movie. A movie for a cancelled series. The only one I’ve ever heard of. Serenity – (2005 movie) is itself mandatory viewing for those who have enjoyed Firefly.
Mandatory viewing. I have been brought to tears more than once.
Continues with Serenity – (2005 movie)
