People Share Their Absolute Favorite TV Shows At The Moment
black flat screen tv turned on showing game

With a new television season about to begin, viewers can't wait for the season premiers of their favorite TV shows, including long runners Grey's Anatomy and Law & Order: SVU, as well as high profile new shows, such as the Fox's country music drama Monarch or HBO's Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon.

Of course, the landscape of television has changed considerably in recent years, as evidenced by the fact that ABC's acclaimed Abbot Elementary was the only scripted network series to get any major nominations at the recent Emmy awards.

As a result, no one is beholden to tuning in when shows are on the air, or depending on their DVRs, or, for 80s and 90s children, VCRs!

More and more people watch their shows on streaming platforms, which means that not only can they watch current series the day after they aired, but younger viewers might also be able to binge classics like Friends or Will & Grace, as well as short-lived cult-favorites like Happy Endings or Freaks and Geeks.

As a result, many people's favorite show might be a show which ended its run several years ago.


Redditor stellar-being was curious to hear everyone's favorite show, old or new, which they are currently watching, leading them to ask:
"What TV series are you loving right now?"

Primal

"Primal."

"I love dinosaurs, alternate history, show-don't-tell storytelling, animated fight scenes, and Samurai Jack."

"So to me, it's the ideal show."- FloridaFlamingoGirl

The X-Files

"Almost done with Season 1 and it's only been a few days."- Leppter_

Fringe

"'Fringe'."

"It starts as a 'monster of the week' kind of show in season 1, with some underlying situations that make you think 'what’s really going on?'"

"It’s an amazing show."- dminus222

Stargate

"SG-1 nostalgia."- Nilrin

Barry

"Barry."- The_Golden_God1113

Those 35 and older are frequently amazed by the fact that people are able to watch just about any show at any given time.

Though they're likely not complaining.

Who would complain at the ability to watch Rob Lowe smolder in 9-11: Lone Star, and then have him melt our hearts in Brothers and Sisters?

AOC Has Democrats Applauding With Her Viral Reaction To Zohran Mamdani's Historic Win

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people nodding their heads after she opened up about why democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani's win in the New York City mayoral election on Tuesday is so important for the country at large as well as for the future of the Democratic Party.

Mamdani successfully took on the establishment to become the first South Asian, first Muslim, and first millennial mayor-elect, running a campaign that focused predominantly on the city's affordability crisis and that successfully batted away racist and Islamophobic backlash from right-wingers who claimed his policies would "destroy" the city.

People Who Quit Their Jobs On Day One Reveal What Made Them Say 'Nope, Not Doing This'

Every now and then, simply because we need money, we might take a job that doesn't fulfill us in any way, but at least keeps our bank accounts happy.

Some jobs, however, are so soul-sucking that even with no other prospects immediately on the horizon, we can't, in good conscience, keep working them.
