To be fair, this is actually my list that I thought I'd share with you. All in all, these original series and outdated shows have some of the most dynamic story lines, influential characters, and major plot twists. That's what a good show is all about and how it moves us to understand the way people change and grow throughout each series. Let's take a look at some of the shows that will have you off the edge of your seat.
Black Mirror
Look into the stories that make you think in a more receptive way. Each episode is emotional, psychological, and immensely sci-fi that relate to the way you see your life and the society in which you live in. It's a genius and well thought-out show and the creators have never failed to impress with each season they put out.
Stranger Things
Have you ever watched the Goonies? Super 8? Well things just got a whole lot better thanks to this Netflix original series. It's a fantastic segment of characters that all play a role to discovering the secrets of a parallel universe, aliens, and much more.
Narcos
Pablo Escobar, no this is not a documentary but an incredible story to the life of Escobar and his cartel. As well as the country of Colombia and the United States chase to capturing this drug lord. The show creates attachments to all characters and creates the feel to what life was like in Colombia during this time.
The Time in Between
If you don't do subtitles then this is not the show for you. But please give it a shot. Taken from the beautifully written novel by María Dueñas, it is set during World War II in Madrid where a young seamstress takes part to uncover the secrets of the Nazis by becoming a spy for the Americans.
House of Cards
Wait - its not all about the corruption in politics, it's more than that. Think of it like a history lesson meets Macbeth. One of the most iconic and addicting shows, you may hate the theme but may never stop watching.
Sword Art Online
Who doesn't love watching a little anime now and then? Stuck in a virtual reality game with hundreds of other users trying to make it to up to the 100th level, just to log out. Oh, and if they die in the game, they die in real life. The main character will be your ever favorite with a great sense of justice and bravery. And every character has a reason for doing the things that they do.
Sherlock
Benedict Cumberbatch. Do I have to say more? Holmes and Watson are the ultimate squad goals. The cases will leave you speechless with how perceptive and intuitive the duo solves them. Too much law and order will tell you this show is a must see.
Jane the Virgin
The show was originally an old Venezuelan telenovela and now directors Deutch, Siberling and Briesewitz made it not only a serious drama but a comedic hit. Characters are always changing, drama is always intense, and you get your daily dose of spanish. I highly recommend this show for people that want something different than an average nuclear family.
