It's a bit late in the year to be doing this blog post with some of the shows I'm about to mention having already started or in the case of Netflix shows...already released the entire season! However, with this crazy reality that we live in including Brexit, polar vortex's and Trump as president I think people are looking for that bit of escapism. Don't you?
