Title Year Tim's Personal Notes Tim's Score
Sherlock 2010 Simply stated, one of my favorite shows of all time. 99
Severance 2022 One of my favorite all time shows. A bit weird and one I sometimes hesitate to recommend. I just finished season two and and am very much excited for season three. Very interesting and fresh. 97
The Expanse 2015 96
Homeland 2011 Very much liked this show. Gritty and realistic (at least plausible) in a TV sort of way. 93
Ridley 2022 This show can be a bit slow and dry, but that is also part of the appeal. The main charater is a detective and amateur jazz singer, I'm down for that. I'm not sure if everyone will like his singing, but I kinda dig it. I still haven't finished all available episodes, but from time to time I find myself craving more of the main character in this show. I'll have to go back and watch more sometime soon. 88
Psych 2006 Pretty high on my list of all time favorite comedies. Loved the antics of Shawn and Gus.  88
True Detective 2014 88
Dark Winds 2022 This is a bit dark and intense at times, but overall quite good. As I write this, I'm watching the third season as episodes come out. 87
The White Lotus 2021 I really like this show. 87
Shetland 2013 Watching this one with my parents. It can get a bit dark and grim at times, but then what else would one expect from a crime show on a set of islands as barren and depressing as Shetland. It's also beautiful. It's a solid and entertaining show, but doesn't really break any new ground from others show in this genre.  85
Miss Scarlet and the Duke 2020 This has been a fun one to watch with my parents. We got in at the beginning and are on our 5th season right now (Dec 2024). 85
Station Eleven 2021 Sometimes I just love a show for it's style and production. This is one of those shows. It's not for everyone, but it's very high up my list.  83
So Help Me Todd 2022 Seems to be a grandchild of Psych. I love the spirit of this show, wish it had lasted longer. 83
Dexter 2006 Writing in 2025 when the third iteration of Dexter is being freshly promoted. When it came out, this show was a unique take on serial killers. I ended up liking it a lot more than I expected during the first few seasons. Lots of interesting characters that were well cast with excellent performances. It was one of those shows where the premise gets a bit old and less believable over time. But the production value and characters kept me watching anyway until the end.  83
Bosch 2015 Well produced and well acted. I very much appreciated the cast of charaters. Over time, I began to tired of Bosch who doesn't seem to learn from his mistakes or grow as character. Five seasons in, Bosch feel like the same guy I met in the first episode. Making the same mistakes and getting caught in the same dangerous situations.  Will continue to watch, because I do like the characters and the views from Bosch's living room.  82
Black Mirror 2011 79
Endeavour 2013 78
Star Trek: The Next Generation 1987 This was once my favorite Star Trek shows. Very much enjoyed it back when it was fresh. Some limited attempts to revisit it recently suggest that it doesn't hold up very well and it seems unlikely I'll be going back to rewatch old episodes. 78
The Doctor Blake Mysteries 2013 Australian dectective show. Well done, in the tradition of many other similar shows. 75
The Rockford Files 1974 I haven't seen this show in a VERY long time. But, it was a favorite of mine in high school, back in the 80's. My friend and I loved Rockford's grit and attitude. Used to watch this in reruns.  Would love to go back and watch a few episode to see how it holds up. I'm skeptical.  75
The Acolyte 2024 A little better than Ahsoka, but not much.  65
Yellowjackets 2021
Squid Game 2021
Black Doves 2024
The Day of the Jackal 2024
The Agency 2024
