In 2013, I was glad I spent my time on the following shows. I thoroughly enjoyed them and I consider them time well spent. A couple of these shows are from the past and I only got around to see them only this year. I recommend them to you if you are interested in spending time on shows that leaves you yearning for more rather than wondering will-this-end-before-I-start-seeing-grey-hairs.
Firefly should easily be the greatest TV series that was cancelled mid-way in season one. A space adventure in the western style, Firefly was simply mind-blowing. Sci-fi, action, adventure, comedy, drama - it's a pot boiler of an entertainer. Sadly, it had only 14 episodes before the curtains came down. But these 14 episodes are worth it. A movie was made (Serenity) after a few years to bring some closure.
A anime-based space adventure where a group of bounty hunters go on small missions. This is a masterpiece. Period. Engaging story, terrific music and great characterization make it a treat to watch. It has totally 22 episodes and totally worth your time.
A spin off of the critically acclaimed Avatar : The Last Airbender from Nickelodeon, this series is about the next avatar - Korra. The first season introduces us to the new united world - the Republic city. The second season started a bit slow, but finishes with a bang. If you are an Avatar fan, check this out. My favorite episode is the one that shows how the first Avatar came into existence. Gorgeous animation.
The Pritchett family continues to make me laugh more than any other running comedy show. I'm still not sure who my favorite character is - every character is so unique. And the writers make sure that in spite of so many characters around, each, including Lilly, get a worthy equal space in each episode.
Hope you find them enjoyable as I did. If you have any recommendations, please do comment!.
