Netflix Series and TV Series worth watching:I really enjoy TV. I see it as my time to be quiet and relax. When I was in labor with him.. I was induced and it was not working, after a entire day of 15min contractions. I talked the nurse into bring me back to a regular room so I could eat a hamburger and watch Rosewell on Tv (Rosewell was a Teen Scifi TV show starting a young Katherine Hegel). My doctor said I was going to lose my bed in labor and delivery. So I cut a deal I will go back to the labor floor after I watched Roswell. Seriously TV I delayed the birth of my son.. For a TV Show.
After my sons Birth in 2001 while staying at home, I was stressed out because I had no down time. AKA TV, because my infant took 2 hours to fall asleep. (Don’t judge I was a 1st time mother who nursed him to sleep and he transferred like crap.) My Husband for some reason never videotaped my shows.
Then I went on a business trip and a gentleman the Mexico City Airport, told me about TVIO. I was a 1st generation used of Tivo .. Yep long before cable added DVR’s there was TV a DVR box with a lifetime membership. The idea of watching TV and skipping commercials was a god sent. Tivo was great but.. Technology changed and I moved on.. Enter my cable DVR, then

- Walking Dead from AMC on Netflix: This is a show my brother talked me into watching. I originally said no thank you Zombies. He said it is better than that you stop loosing sight of the Zombies and it become about the characters and how people change in the face of an apocalypse. I actually enjoyed watching this with my Husband and teenage Son we all would try to predict the future of the characters. 5 Seasons
- House of Cards: This was a hard series for me to get into because it is a little slow at 1st. I loved the twists and turns the characters made. It is a show to watch slowly and enjoy.. a little bit does a long way. 3 season on netflix.
- Shameless: This is HBO series. It is a very adult show (sex, volaice more) . I am amazed at the characters The story centers around a low income family in Detroit.

The Eldest brother is a Genius and trying to figure out if he is a mess or will he embrace his gifts. There is also a Gay brother.
