2016/2017: Year of TV

I am going to try and keep track of my television shows chronologically rather than by current, watched, etc. I will try to update this throughout the year. I will also give the medium for how I am watching the show. So, without further ado,

Fall 2016 (September/October/November)
  • 30 for 30 Shorts (Hulu) — Started watching
  • Ballers (HBO) — Watched the second half of Season 2
  • Behind the Mask (Hulu) — Watching Season 1 
  • Brothers & Sisters (Hulu) — Started watching series.
  • Californication (Netflix) — Finished re-watching the series
  • Chance (Hulu) — Watching Season 1
  • Daredevil (Netflix) — Watched Season 2
  • Designated Survivor (ABC) — Watching Season 1
  • Divorce (HBO) — Watching Season 1
  • Gilmore Girls (Netflix) — Re-watching the series on Netflix to get ready for the new episodes that are due out in November
  • Longmire (Netflix) — Watched Season 5
  • Lovesick (Netflix) — Watched Season 1
  • Lucifer (Fox) — Watching Season 2
  • Madame Secretary (CBS) — Watching Season 3
  • Manhattan (Hulu) — Finished both seasons.
  • New Girl (Netflix) — Watched Season 5
  • Pitch (Hulu) — Watching Season 1
  • This is Us (Hulu) — Watching Season 1 
Notes: Of the new shows I started watching (Chance, Designated Survivor, Divorce, Pitch, and This is Us), Pitch is by far the most entertaining. This is Us is good, albeit super-sappy. For some reason we are still watching Designated Survivor; why? I don't know. Chance and Divorce I watched a few episodes of each. They didn't grab me. I also really enjoyed Manhattan. It isn't, however, a new show, just new for me. The 30 for 30 Shorts are 10-15 minute episodes, so quick watching when you have just a small bit of time.
