    "El chapo" I thought Narcos was great but I found this series to be more compelling. If drug overloards are so savvy why do they attempt to bury paper backs? You trade it for gold and bury the gold deep in the sea, that's what you do,

    Checking out SYFY's BLOOD DRIVE
    It is cheesy and stupid but vaguely entertaining.

    I know this is a long list, but this is for the whole summer

    Claws (TNT)
    - Marketed as Breaking Bad but with nail artists? I don't know, I'll give it a try. Pretty raunchy for TNT IMO. Karrueche Tran is a better actor than I thought. She has officially pigeon-holed herself as a hoe though with this role. Maybe her character changes.

    Preacher (AMC)
    - I stopped watching in season 1, but season 2 premier was good.

    Dark Matter (SYFY)
    - Two's hips don't lie! Two's strut is next level. I watch this show partly to see this girl walk out of the room. The thing is: Two doesn't have a large butt; just wide hips.... IN SPACE!!

    Degrassi (Netflix)
    - I've watched every episode, every season.. come at me.

    GLOW (Netflix)
    - 80's Girl wrestling. I started fully enjoying it around episode 5. This show proves you can have a damn drama that is only 30 minutes long. it's an easy binge.

    The Fosters (Netflix, FreeForm)
    - Man, I like this show. I caught this by accident in my Netflix feed and almost finished all 4 seasons. It's surprisingly good. I'll probably be all done before the premier of the 5th season in July.

    The Mist (Spike) - People aren't really liking this one so far. I think it's fine.

    Game of Thrones (HBO) - you already know.. Night's King coming! Dani coming! uh oh.

    The Strain (FX)
    - I was almost about to drop this show then they dropped a freaking nuke on New York.. I'm back because this show is bat **** crazy. Last season .. finish it out.

    Suits (USA)
    - My girl Jessica is gone, I'm not sure I like what they are doing with Donna and Rachel. I don't know.. This used to be one of my favorites. I'm back because loyalty.

    Snowfall (FX) - DRUGS!

    Salvation (CBS) - An asteroid about to hit the earth in 6 months and people will try to stop it.. Probably going to be a trash summer series but its just sci-fi enough to be intriguing. I'm down for a series AFTER an asteroid hits earth.

    Midnight, Texas (NBC) - From the creators of True Blood. This is going to be garbage, but I'll watch the premier.

    Raven's Home (Disney) - Raven is back but with kids. the sequel to That's so Raven. The sequel to Boy Meets World, Girl meets World was a massive disappointment IMO I don't expect this to be great at all.

    The Last Ship (TNT) - I liked this show a lot better when they were really the Last ship on earth.. whatever... I'm back.

    Marvel's Defenders (Netflix) - Culmination of Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron fist. I'm worried this is going to be a disappointment.

    Big Brother (CBS)

    So You Think You Can Dance (FOX)

    Animal Kingdom isn't a great show but it's much better this year. Last year they spent way too much time on character development. That is paying off now. The problem is there are better things to watch.

    Dreamshook,

    Dark Matter hit the ground running.
    I didn't even watch the The Strain finale. Because of your comment, I will this weekend. Still on DVR.
    Suits seems to be on it's last legs. Had a decent run before losing it's way.
    The Last Ship is like cotton candy.
    I will wait on reviews for Defenders. If good, I'll quickly watch Iron Fist and Defenders back-to-back. Otherwise, bring on Punisher!

    Never got into LAST SHIP and did not know it was still rolling
    Still liking Dark Matter . . .Killjoys the main character .. . . she is so adorable that you watch
    but she really is not the greatest actress and the show is not the best written
    but she is nice to look at.

    Saw the pilot.

    Shouldn't be bad. I forgot how the movie was.

    Watch the pilot episode. OF THE MIST
    It was bit predictable even without knowing the movie
    the mother/daughter relationship is a big ole cliche
    The party was a big ole cliche
    The 'freak' kid is a cliche

    The only one they avoid was killing the black man first :D

    overall it is a set up episode so I will allow it
    Will see what becomes of it
    I think I will give it 5 episodes

    The Mist kind of pissed me off this week. I hate when the writers designate someone too special to kill
    Now I know old main girl has 100% bullet proof plot armor barring something twisting . . . .
    you kill a kid but spare her because. . . . .. . plot reasons

    Then her dad and his band of characters just basically stole ole boys car

    Dark Matter is still entertaining. The plots move along some tropes but nothing too crazy

    Killjoys and The Earp show are bah . . . . . .Earp is like 60% girl on Girl action if you like that
    some plot sprinkled in

    Orphan Black is still notching top honors

    I am recording QUEEN SUGAR

    POWER is still a very good show
