These are the television series I’ve binged, in their entirety, this year. As in 2020, I had a lot of free time on my hands.

Star Trek The Original Series
Star Trek Discovery
Star Trek Picard
Deadwood (plus Deadwood The Movie)
Game of Thrones
Downton Abbey (plus Downton Abbey The Movie)
True Blood
Malcolm in the Middle
M*A*S*H (plus the original movie)
Raising Hope
The Mandalorian
Band of Brothers (twice)
My Name is Earl
3rd Rock from the Sun
Gunsmoke (seasons 1-8. To be continued into 2022)

Binging Deadwood from start to finish has become a yearly tradition (sometimes twice) before the anniversary of the movie’s release. This year, I managed to blaze my way through all three season (36 episodes), then the movie,  in 5 days.

Another tradition is to watch Deadwood The Movie on the anniversary weekend of its original release (May 31, 2019) while eating a dinner of “toast and eggs or toast and bacon”. Fans of the series will know what that’s all about. And of course, the canned peaches…

“Ten years gone, ‘proaching that self same hill I thought to lay me down and rise no more…”

It was fun watching this movie in its old time-slot; Sunday at 8pm. As with the original episodes, I’m noticing subtle details not seen in previous viewings.
