My fiancé and I have discovered that we enjoy a very inexpensive activity: watching really good TV series. They're like extended movies and yet broken up enough that we can watch one or two while we unwind together for the evening and still have something to come back to the next day.
Now, anyone who knows me knows I am not a proponent of sitting in front of the TV endlessly. I believe in "doing," as my mother in law likes to joke. ("oh, you're a do-er"...as in, not someone who sits down for long periods of time well). Yet, this, we have found, is a great together activity.
The dilemma became finding a show that we both enjoyed. I like comedy and shows with powerful main characters - people who are strong and bring on a story that makes you think. He likes sci-fi, horror, and action. So, as you can imagine, finding a show we both like can be tricky. For example, I LOVED The West Wing. Him? Not so much. He loves The Venture Brothers and American Horror Story. Me? Not so much.
We were pleased, therefore, when we stumbled across of string of shows we both LOVED. Here is what I highly recommend:
House of Cards
Fringe
Scandal
Sherlock (BBC version)
*love*
Happy viewing!
