TV shows: My favourites

I'm obsessed with tv shows, in total I've been following around 25 tv shows. No random episodes involved. Some of them got cancelled, others ended. But at the moment there are still 13 shows I'm watching weekly. And of course some of them are on a hold and won't start until the summer. Plus there are still a lot of shows I want to start like Breaking Bad, the Walking Dead, Arrow and Revolution. If you want to see which shows I watch.. Check out my media page. But in this post I wanted to tell you about my top 5 ever. The five tv shows I enjoyed most, even though they are cancelled, ended or are still showing. Here we go:

1. Game of Thrones

This must be my all time favourite tv show. I'm reading the books, loving the show and meeting some of the actos. This story will belong to the genre fantasy, but is so much more then that. And all though it's very complicated when you watch it for the first time, it's building up amazing and there are so much characters which I absolutely love. I'm very happy to say that I already met some of the actors/actresses from the show including: Maisie Williams (Arya Stark), Iain Glenn (Sir Jorah), Jason Mamoa (Khal Drogo), Natalia Tena (Osha), Joe Dempsy (Gendry), Miltos Yeromelou (Syrio Forell), Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister) and Finn Jones (Loras Tyrell).

What is it about? Without any spoilers.. Game of Thrones is a medieval fantasy set in Westeros where you follow different story lines of different families. The show follows the members of several noble houses in a civil war for the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms. It builds up until everything seems to go wrong, and after all winter is coming.

I'm always been a big fan of fantasy but this is beyond everything I've seen and I absolutely can't wait until April 1st when the 3rd season will start again. My favourite characters? Daenerys Targaryen, Arya Stark and Tyrion Lannister. With Jon Snow and Ned Stark as a follow up.

2. Legend of the Seeker

This show was unfortunately cancelled after two seasons. I was gutted when I heard about it. Especially because season 2 was an open ending. There were a lot of characters I love and the story line was exactly what I liked.

The series follows the epic journeys of a young man named Richard Cypher, a mysterious woman named Kahlan Amnell, a wizard named Zeddicus Zu'l Zorander and a warrior (Mord'Sith) named Cara as they try to defeat Darken Rahl.

Kahlan Amnell was one of my favourite characters as I loved how she was portrayed in the tv show. (not so much in the books) But Cara had to be my all time favourite. The female characters in this show are strong and absolutely badass. Last November I met two of the male leads (Craig Horner & Craig Parker) which was such an amazing experience.

3. The Vampire Diaries

I've not read the books but love the tv show. I followed the Vampire Diaries from the very beginning and I'm still absolutely loving it. I'm definitely on Damon's (Ian Somerhalder) side and think Nina Dobrev (Elena) is gorgeous! I hope to meet Ian Somerhalder somewhere in the next few years as I absolutely respect everything he's doing, from his foundation to the person he is.

The Vampire Diaries is about Elena Gilbert, a girl from Mystic Falls, a small town haunted by Supernatural beings. Vampire brothers Damon and Stefan Salvatore live in the village as well. As the story develop, the focal point shifts on the mysterious past of the town involving Elena's doppelgänger Katherine Pierce and the family of Original Vampires, all of which have some evil plans of their own.

4. Supernatural

Supernatural can not be missed in the list. And all though I'm not a big fan of season 8 so far. The first 5 seasons where amazing. I've been in this fandom for a long time and all though Game of Thrones got in it's way, I still have a special place for Supernatural. My favourite character? Sam Winchester, with Dean on a very close second place.

Supernatural is a horror/sci-fi show about two brothers called Sam and Dean Winchester. The show follows the brothers as they hunt demons, ghosts, monsters and other figures of the supernatural.

I've also met a lot of the Supernatural actors. I'll name some: Misha Collins (Castiel), Rob Benedict (Chuck), Mark Pelligrino (Lucifer), Jim Beaver (Bobby), Mark Sheppard (Crowley), Matt Cohen (young John Winchester), Steven Williams (Rufus), Sebastian Roche (Balthazar), Carrie Fleming (Karen), Amy Gumenick (young Mary Winchester), Katie Wilder (Faith), Lindsey McKeon (reaper), Julian Richings (Death), Mitch Pillegi (Samuel) and Jim Micheals (director). That's quite a long list haha.

5. Dexter

I only started watching this show a few weeks ago, but am already up to season 5. It's different then every other show I've watched before, as I don't really watch crime shows. But Dexter is dark and twisted, which makes me love this show, all though that does sound quite creepy.

Dexter Morgan is a blood spatter pattern analyst for the fictional Miami Metro Police Department but next to that he has a secret life as a serial killer. He learned everything from his dad, so he only kills 'bad people'. But when the story goes on.. Dexter gets involved and has to keep his secret hidden.


Do you guys watch any of these shows? Or are there any shows you think I should watch?
