I love Black Mirror, and since each episode is self-contained, it'd be the best choice for watching one episode per week... oh and it is not mindless tv with gratuitous sex and violence like some other shows... **cough** GOT **cough** ... it is very thought provoking and the only show that I find actually scary.

I just rewatched Breaking Bad. For some reason, I liked it more the second time. If I like a show I become interested in how it is put together. (I still think it should have ended with season 3, though) I've been meaning to rewatch Battlestar Galactica but not certain it would reward a second look. I also did selective original Twilight Zone episodes. Monty Python's Flying Circus (or rather "It's") is back on Netflix and still every bit as funny as always.
Lately, though I've been working through the collection of Flimstruck. I like the old silent animation from the 1920's...Bray Studios, etc. and the back catalog of silent films.

I don't have Netflix, but GOT isn't on there anyway. I'd be interested in Game Of Thrones. I've tried in the past to watch it, but so far have only gotten through episode 5.

I'm down with GoT, too, but I think my wife might rebel.
Who would have thought that dressing in a codpiece and referring to her as my wench would be such a big fucking deal?

Actually, now that I think about it I was confused. IMHO the series should have ended right after the scene in which Hank discovers Walter's copy of Leaves of Grass and realizes that White is the Heisenberg. At that instant you know it is the beginning of the end. White is doomed and you really don't need to know how it plays out. I like the mystery and kind of regret watching anything after than moment.

I wholeheartedly agree. The character development was superior.

O man, BB broke my heart. It was a thrill then you are all of a sudden heart broken after watching the whole thing.

I just couldn't do more than the first half of episode 1. The whole rape and incest thing was too sick and creepy for me.
