    I just started going on a binge-fest on Netflix, and I finished an old show I used to love called Psych. I was wondering what other shows I could watch before the end of summer vacay.

    So far, I've watched all of these shows/series and have liked them a lot.

    Psych (comedy, crime)
    Supernatural (drama, fantasy, horror)
    The Devil is a Part-Timer!/Hataraku Maou-sama! (anime, comedy)
    Doctor Who (adventure, drama, sci-fi)
    Sherlock (crime, drama, mystery)
    Orphan Black (action, drama, sci-fi)
    Fairy Tail (anime, action, adventure, fantasy)
    Firefly (adventure, drama, sci-fi)
    Avatar: The Last Airbender (anime, action, adventure, fantasy)
    Legend of Korra (same as Avatar)
    RWBY (anime, action, adventure, sci-fi, fantasy)
    iZombie (comedy, drama, crime, horror, sci-fi)
    The Big Bang Theory (comedy)
    Ouran High School Host Club (animation, comedy, romance)

    *Yeah, I copied all of those genre things from IMDb. Don't blame me.

    I often found that I tend to watch shows that are fantasy/sci-fi, comedy, and adventure. Also, I really seem to like shows that have pop culture references, and have that tiny bit of nerd in them. However, I can't watch shows that have that weird 'homemade handheld camera' look to them, because they give me headaches. If anyone could give me a few suggestions, that would be amazing.

    Anyways, thanks!

    What I was going to say.

    Heroes (highly recommend)
    Agents of SHIELD (unless Marvel isn't your thing. Season one was wonderful. I'd have to get back to you on season two)
    Arrow (unless DC isn't your thing)
    Sense8 (Netflix original, much diversity)
    How I Met Your Mother

    I've never watched it for various reasons, but Doctor Who has a spin-off called Torchwood.

    If you watch Buffy and Angel, here's a recommended watch order for the two. (I'm still slowly making my through them.)

    Fringe (sci-fi, kinda bonkers-in-a-good-way at times)
    Lost (sci-fi, uncanny)
    Black Mirror (sci-fi anthology, 6 episodes)
    Alias (adventure, sci-fi-ish)
    Arrested Development (comedy)
    Scrubs (comedy)

    Love that show.

    Archer's ok

    Louie is amazing. Lot of black comedy, loosely based on the live of comedian Louis C.K.

    I personally enjoyed: Grimm (a crime based fairy tail), The IT Crowd (a funny comedy)' White Chapel (a crime based tv show based in the present in white chapel london involving lots of copy cat criminals copying criminals such as Jack the Ripper) and Jack Tailor (another crime based tv show). I personally really enjoyed some of these, if you do watch them tell me what you thought. :slight_smile:

    I love Adventure Time if you're into things like Avatar and Bob's Burgers is hilarious (if it's hard to find them on TV there's a great website called KissCartoon that has all the cartoons ever for free so that's pretty cool). For crime dramas and things like that, totally recommend Law and Order SVU; just warning, you will get hooked! Probably my all time favourite TV shows and I love Brooklyn Nine Nine for a bit of comedy relief :slight_smile: Broad City is also a pretty funny type of sitcom thing. And for a bit of action, totally recommend the Walking Dead for a bit of intense post apocalyptic drama :slight_smile:
