1) What is your top show of all time? Choose 1! Gilmore Girls. I love that show, partially for all the memories associated around it watching it back in college  2) Last show you binge watched? I'm actually just at the series finale of Gilmore Girls - I decided to re-watch it after the reboot. It's taken a while to get through, since binge watching isn't always so easy with a toddler! 3) What is your favorite show that currently airs? We hardly watch shows as they air. I am looking forward to the next season of Orange is the New Black, we're going to start that once we finish up The Americans we have saved on our DVR. 4) Any show you just can't stand/could not get into? Game of Thrones. H is obsessed, I just can't get into it. 5) Biggest show crush of all time? Pics please! This goes back to high school - but I was OBSESSED with Mr. Pacey Witter  Read more: aplacetomeet.freeforums.net/thread/1728/gtky-tv-edition#ixzz4junyd7pM |

That's tough! Maybe Sam Witwer who played Aiden on the US version of Being Human. I don't know how to post a pic...

1) What is your top show of all time? Choose 1! Sons of Anarchy. It takes my number 1 spot because I feel like as much of a weirdo as Kurt Sutter is, the man is a pretty clever story-teller. I really loved the journey, and the take on Hamlet, and the way the show wrapped up the story. You rarely find a show that leaves you so satisfied. 2) Last show you binge watched? The Leftovers. (This one is in my top 3. Amazing.) 3) What is your favorite show that currently airs? I'm on the fence between The Americans and Bob's Burgers. 4) Any show you just can't stand/could not get into? I could not get into Gilmore Girls ::ducks and waits to be pelted with tomatoes:: Sorry. 5) Biggest show crush of all time? Pics please! Justin Theroux from The Leftovers. Good heavens, that man is beautiful.  littleliverpill, I watch This Is Us, but I find myself just not that into it. Maybe too much going on? The need to leave every episode with a dramatic cliffhanger? I don't know. It just feels very contrived. jubilantsquirrel, Bob's Burgers is in my top 5. Love it. (Louise is my soulmate. I am certain.)

shananagins I feel the same way about Gilmore girls ::ducks too:: budders I don't mind a show that happens to be emotional or have emotional storylines, but This Is Us just feels too contrived to me. Like every character and plot device was designed to try and tug on my heartstrings. My heartstrings are not that tuggable.

I find that a lot of shows that people like, I can't get into. I don't like feels and tend to watch things that aren't that involved emotionally. The last thing I want to do at the end of a draining day is get invested in other people's lives.
There are only two emotional shows that I can recall watching that I liked: Call the Midwife and Derek. Derek was so weird but I cried at almost every episode. It pissed a lot of people off but I loved it. Call the Midwife makes me ugly cry on the regular. The first season christmas special still makes me cry just thinking about it.
Gilmore girls makes my eyes roll out of my head. I watched a good number of seasons too and it's just... not that good.
I hope this isn't going to derail the thread, but what are some hidden gem shows you have all found? Things that not you don't hear about on the regular but that you really liked.
I recently watched the 3% and The Almighty Johnsons on Netflix and they were both great. Almighty Johnsons is a kiwi show (from New Zealand) about norse gods trapped in the bodies of really hot guys. The 3% is a Brazilian show about a test given to everyone when they turn 21. If they pass, and only 3% do, they get to go to the Offshore which is a place of extreme wealth and privledge, while if they fail they get to live in extreme poverty.

1) What is your top show of all time? Choose 1! Friends. I love that I can rewatch it and it's always funny.
2) Last show you binge watched? Just finished Parks and Rec which was amazing. Now we are watching the third season of Dr Who.
3) What is your favorite show that currently airs? The combined D.C. universe shows probably. So Arrow/ The Flash/ Supergirl/ Legends of Tomorrow.
4) Any show you just can't stand/could not get into? Stranger Things. Everyone I know likes it, it feels like something I should like but I gave up half way through and told my husband to watch it without me.
5) Biggest show crush of all time? Pics please! Stephen Amell for looks. Adam Scott from Parks and Rec for personality. I actually think Ben might be my soul mate.

sheilathetank I don't know if they count as hidden gems, because I think they're just more popular outside of the US – which is where I was exposed to them – but there are a few shows like broadchurch, top of the lake, and the original version of the returned which I believe is French, that are all incredible IMO.

@sheliathetank I love call the midwife... I think that belongs in the hidden gems category...
I like bad drama aimed at teenage girls (Vampire Diaries, PLL, even Gilmore Girls although I think that's not "bad" the way the others are, cartoon comedies (South Park, Bob's Rick and Morty), and Sci fi type drama... I also really don't like This is Us.
I really hate Sex in the City, like so so much... that's probably the most popular show I can't stand...
Hidden gems: if you like sci fi; bitten (although the first season is by far the best then it eats kinda weird). Being Human, I prefer the US version but there is a British version too... I think this is probably the greatest show to ever air on the SyFy channel. Both are on Netflix and Being Human has like 6 seasons so it will take awhile!
Doesn't help @sheliathetank but Rick and Morty is amazing.
