TV Some of the Most Watched TV Series In My Opinion

Number ONE.. at the present time would be Game of Thrones.. Season 8 Episode 6 finale will air tonight.. so the series will literally be one for the record books at the posting of this review.. However I will be writing a separate review on the finale after it airs..

Game of Thrones 2011 - HBO's GOT has led in series since the moment it appeared, with a huge following of viewers.  It has an outstanding cast, exceptional story, dynamic special effects and although sadly Season 8 will end the series.  I have no doubt they will go out on top.. and be viewed in record numbers by dedicated followers.

While I am not going to give you the details of the series know that it is a dramatic fantasy series with huge attention paid to its medieval realism.  From the start it has generated buzz over its battle over good vs evil, hedonistic and political palace intrigue this series continually keeps you on the edge of your seat..  
 
Number TWO..  The Walking Dead 2010.. is a post apocalyptic horror series on AMC based on a comic book series written by Robert Kirkman, Tony Moore and Charlie Adlard.. The series follows a cast of survivors of after what essentially is a zombie apocalypse are simply trying to survive and stay alive in order to find other survivors.. They have to constantly battle to stay alive through attacks from the mindless zombies known as "walkers"..  I have to say this show has been thoroughly entertaining since day one.. with Season 1-2  laying the foundation for the show with the characters being introduced as well as the apocalyptic world.. The series is scary, thought provoking and brilliant.. as well as gut wrenching especially as you come to know the cast and see witness them battle to save one another and others along the way..

Number THREE..  The Big Bang Theory - 2007 - Finale was May 16 2019  and while I won't claim to have watched every episode. I do think it is a very funny show with an outstanding cast. Sheldon is of course my favorite, but I truly love the interaction between him and all the other cast and how over time the story has expanded to include marriage and children.. Truly plenty of laughter to go around.
The finale of the show just aired.. however this series was definitely a one of a kind show and will be missed..  

Number FOUR..  Breaking Bad 2008-2013 AMC  is a crime drama set in Albuquerque, NM .. the show follows the story of Walter White (Bryan Cranston) a struggling, depressed chemistry teacher at a local high school who was just diagnosed with lung cancer.. Mr. White decides to turn to a life of crime by producing and selling crystal meth to secure his family's financial future before he dies.. and one of his former students Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) agrees to help him for a cut of profit.. This series from start to finish, was off the charts .. it was wildly entertaining and full of action.. Even now the show still has a huge following..

There have been rumors of a possible Breaking Bad film.. but I have heard that Aaron Paul will be reprising his role of Jesse.. I can't wait..

Number FIVE..  Orange is the New Black 2013- present -  is a Netflix comedy prison drama.. and is based on the memoir Orange Is The New Black: My Year in a Women's Prison by Piper Kerman.. which features her experiences while incarcerated at a minimum security federal prison..

The series follows Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling) a woman who is sentenced to 15 months in a minimum security federal prison in upstate NY.. Chapman was convicted of transporting drug money for her girlfriend an international drug smuggler.. The series features a whole cast of characters within the confines of the prison.. both prisoners and prison personnel.. it is full of plenty of drama and comedy.. I love it.. and I know you will too.. According to the powers that be.. the last season is due to be released in the summer of 2019

Number SIX.. Grey's Anatomy - Medical drama (based out of a fictional Seattle hospital) that first premiered in 2005.  I know medical TV shows are not everyones cup of tea, however for me and most of the people I know they are very engaging and quickly draw the viewer's attention.. They usually contain severe medical conditions that many people will either identify with in some way or will cause the viewer to feel a real concern about what the outcome will ultimately be (at times you may end up sitting on the edge of your seat to see if someone lives or dies).

Number SEVEN..  Sons of Anarchy 2008-2014 - was a crime drama series that followed the lives of an outlaw motorcycle club operating out of a fictional town called Charming in California.... The show featured a outstanding cast and starred Charlie Hunnam as Jackson "Jax" Teller.. When the series starts off Jax is the vice president and his stepfather was the president..  Each season is shrouded dramatic action.. and centers on the personal life and family life of Jax Teller and the club SAMCRO (Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original).. The series has everything.. gun running, rival gangs, politicians and corruption, drugs, and porn .. however there is family, honor, brotherhood, and redemption.. I really loved this series.. the story and the characters were gripping.. and gut wrenching.. I was truly sad when it ended.. A must see binge worthy series..

Number EIGHT..  Homeland  is an American terrorism spy thriller drama that premiered in 2011. (Wow that was a mouthful .. but it is).. Homeland is everything you would want in a politics based fight on terrorism thriller series that shows how people risk their lives hunting down terrorist abroad and domestic.

All though the series focuses on a covert CIA operative (played by Claire Danes) who is bipolar. The show does touch upon many of the issues facing this country, and although this is series of fiction it is gripping and has an exceptional cast.  I have read that the 8th season will be its last and will start in June 2019.  Trust me this series is a must see, and I will be sad to see it end..

Number NINE.. Vikings 2013  is a historical drama action series on the History Channel.. The series is inspired by the tales of the Norseman of early medieval Scandinavia.. The series follows the legendary Viking chieftain Ragnar Lothbrok and his crew, family and descendants as passed down through the ages in sagas.. (partially fictional tales based on Norse folklore along with historical sources from the period).. The series has an outstanding cast .. is written brilliantly.. It is gripping, full of action, drama and outstanding cinematography..  The series Season 6 which is scheduled to start sometime in the fall is to be its finale season.
