Revenge and supernatural are a few of the best tv shows I have ever seen.
My tween was looking for a new series to watch. Going to show these to her.
As always, thanks for the intro to some shows I never heard of before. 🙂
I watched the first season of Once Upon a Time and I wasn’t able to follow through afterwards. It’s a great show though and I think it deserves all the recognition it’s getting. Supernatural is just the same! Very nice!
All the shows appear quite interesting, but my favourite would be Lost.
