The greatest show of all time is, without a doubt, Gilmore Girls. It’s pretty much the only show I watch anymore. I have watched it so many times, I could quote the entire thing. The love stories, the friendships, and the calm nature of the show makes it simple, yet so incredible. It’s the best show to watch with a cup of coffee on a quiet fall day. The nostalgic nature of the show resonates through each season. The unique characters and quaint, small town make it a comforting and relaxing show.

When I tell you I haven’t seen a funnier, raunchier, more out-of-pocket show than Shameless, I haven’t seen one. Most TV shows lose their quality and humor after about three or four seasons, but somehow the writers of this Chicago-based show managed to entertain me with eleven solid seasons. The Gallagher family is chaotic and deranged but always manages to keep me on my toes with their one-liners and “couldn’t care less” personalities. My favorite Gallagher, Carl, basically carries the show on his shoulders. In the first few seasons, Carl was just the annoying little brother, but later became a delinquent in juvenile detention. With his witty cleverness, he ends up running the place. When he gets out, he continues a life of crime, but uses the money he makes to help his older sister repurchase their home, putting his family’s lives above his own, and proving what the whole show is about: family.

If I had to watch one show for the rest of my life, it would be Doremon. Doremon is the epitome of a comfort show. Accompanying the normal life of four Japanese fourth graders is their unusual best friend, a robotic cat with a pocket to the fourth dimension in his stomach, who travels back from the 22nd century. Doremon has all the unprecedented, magical gadgets invented in the future. The gadgets range from a door that leads anywhere to a camera that dresses a person physically in an outfit based on an inserted picture. It’s absurd, but so entertaining. Despite being a children’s show, it doesn’t fail to construct a complex backstory for each character as it creatively incorporates historical events into the storyline. The seamless blend of the past, present, and future make the show unique and irreplaceable. And along with everything are its comical illustrations and lovable characters.

Hanna is hands down the best show on Amazon Prime. It’s action-packed, but also has flawless acting and a surprising plot. The cast fits their characters perfectly. The show takes place mostly in Europe, where a girl raised alone in the woods by her father searches for the truth of her past. Over the course of three thrilling seasons, the plot expands beyond the original characters and becomes a complex and electrifying story filled with twists and suspense. The show follows Hanna through many different countries, so German, Spanish, French, and a variety of other languages are featured. You’ll be sitting on the edge of your seat from the beginning of the first episode to the very end of the last.
