So what acclaimed/popular shows on whatever streaming or regular tv shows are you not watching, but want to?

Animal Kingdom
The Sinner
True Detective
This Is Us
The Handmaiden's Tale
The Crown

Michael Corvin

Stranger Things
Mr Mercedes
Westworld
True Detective

The first two because they're on streaming services, Westworld because I don't have HBO. That leaves True Detective. I have season 1 sitting here unwatched.

OldBoy

Yeah, Westworld too and Big Little Lies...

Yes, believe it or not, I don't have the time to sit on my couch and watch/stream everything I want to:

Most of my want to watch is from streaming. Simply too much. I have to really pick and choose what to make priority for. I usually watch the easier to digest escapism shows 1st over deep, dark shows that require lots of attention. Ex: I prioritized the Marvel shows on Netflix over others.

It seems like Netflix releases a new original show 3-4 times per month during peak periods. Original streaming shows are really hard to keep up with in the Fall and Spring. I barely finished Stranger Things season 1 a month or so ago.

I suspect Star Trek: Discovery will be on this list for many by the new year since most here want to see it, but don't have access to it.

Mr. Mercedes is not a streaming show. It's an Audience Network show, which only DirecTV and AT&T U-Verse subscribers get. If you have a different provider (which obviously you do), you're out of luck until it's released on media.

Boondock Saint

Hulu originals since I don't have Hulu but am considering it since I recently checked out their stuff and there's a bunch I'd like to watch

Other shows:

Black Mirror
Animal Kingdom
Shooter
Queen of the South
Big Little Lies
The Man in the High Castle
Ozark
The OA
Goliath
The Expanse
Sneaky Pete
Transparent
Red Oaks

There's a bunch of shows on Netflix/Amazon I've watched, just not up to date with (mainly just one season behind):

House of Cards
Orange is the New Black
Bloodline
Narcos
Bosch
Peaky Blinders
Kimmy Schmidt
Wentworth

I kind of like knowing I have another season ready to go if I feel like it.

Also, there's a bunch of foreign shows on Netflix that look pretty interesting that I've been meaning to check out.

Norm de Plume

How would I know they're great if I'm not watching them?

Rave critical reviews. High Nielsen ratings or always talked about on Pop Culture publications, social media.

Obviously if you don't pay any attention to that, then this topic is pointless for you to answer.
