    With SO many TV series out there, it's not every day you stumble across one that grabs you from the opening scene until the second that finale ends.

    "It never f--king misses, from beginning to end. A friend forced me to watch it and it's hands down in my top three favorite shows of all time. It's so good. I pressed another friend to watch it forever and when he finally did he said, 'Why didn't you MAKE me watch this show? It's so good!' My guy, I literally tried to bribe you to watch it, this isn't on me."
