Help me pick a show!

I really would love to see Nat's take on Trek!

Hey Nat, noticed you never did Squid Game season 3

Should really watch The Amazing Digital Circus, it is so so good

I feel like you'd enjoy Blue Eye Samurai

Nat... where is Squid Game S3??? 😭

How has Kpop Demon Hunters NOT been on a poll yet?!?

Please watch cobra Kai

Nobody does the Orville and its great!

OMG THE BEAR!

I'm literally almost done with the Original Star Trek Series for the first time so I'll be voting for that if it's on the polls!!

The Bear is a good show. Too much yelling though.

Peaky Blinders S2, need to connect the story to the episode she accidentally saw in S3

I’m guessing we have those self-focused voters who say “But I’ve already SEEN it!”, to explain the lack of interest in seeing one more student educated in the basics of Star Trek: TOS. Starfleet is Fundamental.

Yesss the bear! I need an excuse to rewatch season 1 for awhile so this is perfect!

The Bear gonna be horrible on your back carrying all that stress

Gonna put up Babylon 5 again

Again, I'm putting Orphan black out there.

I would have picked Babylon 5

What We Do In The Shadows

squid game losing :(

The bear is good, but this last season was sooo boring - so maybe just season one only 😂

Dang, Squid Game in last place? Even against the typically-poorly-received-in-polls Star Trek TOS!? That is surprising. I was sure it’d win against any challenger in this poll. Not complaining, though. Let it rip!

COUSIN!

You can't go wrong with The Bear or (ESPECIALLY) Better Call Saul.

Why no consideration for the great writing on the Twilight Zone, from the 1960s?

havent reacted to a show i want to watch in like 2 months lol. I think this is were we part ways

Maybe in the near future, the tv show From?🙏

Voted for BCS here, mostly because The Bear has been on a downward slope in quality since season 1 IMO. I'm a sci-fi fan at heart, but have no interest in slogging through the older Star Trek series. Would love to see The Expanse back on a poll one day as the sci-fi option even though I'm pretty sure we'd never make it all the way through the show voting on single seasons haha.

Man i would love to see you watch BCS and the bear both tbh haha they are just some top tier shows

can I get a confirmation that she’s seen all of Break Bad before I vote BCS because if she hasn’t I can’t in good faith vote for it.

I keep saying it: we don't want you to react through the ENTIRE original series, just 5-10 episodes is enough. The entire series is super rough to get through, you just need to watch a few classic episodes.

I don’t feel comfy voting for Better Call Saul before Breaking Bad

You had Cyberpunk Edge Runners up once, I wish that was an option again

I'll try a different argument this time. Take a look at the total runtime of each option: 6.13 hours (Squid Game – S3) 24.17 hours (Star Trek: TOS – S1) 3.93 hours (The Bear – S1) 7.83 hours (Better Call Saul – S1) As you can see, TOS S1 is longer than all of the other options combined. It's a much bigger time commitment, and that hurts the chances of this option in the poll. Not to mention that it's very old content. If you were instead to take the 9 best-rated TOS episodes from all seasons (there are websites that can help you with that or ChatGPT), it would run you about 8 hours, so approximately the equivalent of season 1 of BCS. If the only Star Trek content you're willing to start with is TOS, a "best-of" approach would have much better chances in future polls. It's a well-accepted approach for content like that.

TOS is an interesting pick, far from the best Star Trek show (obviously it’s from the ’60s) but I’d actually be down to rewatch it since it’s been ages since I’ve seen it.

Better Call Saul not winning? i dont understand the world anymore, one of the best shows produced in the last 10 years.

ST: TOS isn't bad, as someone opined earlier, it's just dated, its effects very much of its time. The dialog is campy, etc etc. All things that can be accepted and overlooked if you let yourself be swept along. It's just that... Look, I just don't know how much I'm willing to watch Nat laugh, roll her eyes at, and dismiss what is, in essence, historic and decent TV (that I also happen to enjoy).

The Bear is elite slice of life drama

Should watch the suicide squad, then peacemaker

The Bear starts out great but falls off very fast. Season 1 and 2 are good but the last 2 seasons have been horrid. Definitely watch Better Call Saul since it's the greatest show ever made. Even if it comes second I hope you watch it after the winning show is done. :D

I have no interest in watching any of those series' at this point in my life, but I know the first season of the OG Star Trek is good. Watched most of it while I was camping in a sleeping bag on my phone and was having trouble being without video media for the first time in quite a while. Also, I was using the Netflix app for the very first time.

I really hope "Better Call Saul" makes a comeback and wins because it is superb. I don't know if you ever saw the best show in the history of television, "Breaking Bad", but it's a sequel to that show.

Awwww Saul is never gonna win one of these is it.

The only one I know from this list is Star Trek and was not a fan. My brothers loved the show, but I never did. As for the other shows, I don't know enough about them to pick one. So I will leave that choice to more educated audience members. As for my part, I think ought to watch 'A Discovery of Witches,' starring Matthew Goode and Teresa Palmer. It is a well written short three season show. It's based on the "All Souls Trilogy books" by Deborah Harkness. Great story, great writing, great cast, great filmography, great production, and great directing.

I work in a kitchen, so I can relate most to the Bear. Not saying it's the best show on the list, but it's short, packs a punch, and for me very confrontational, hitting both highs and lows. The show does inspire me to always do or be better next time

Better Call Saul is by far and away the best tv series on that list. It’s unfortunate it’s losing to a show that’s good, but will be nothing but depression and anxiety reactions to every few days lol. What a mistake!

Squid Game - Season 3 is only 6 episodes and that is it so you could start with this and continue with possibly the The Bear

FYI Nat it is the final season of Squid Game and it's only 6 eps, if that makes it more enticing to just finish the series.

This is a great choice, I'm happy with whatever wins this poll

BCS has some of the best camerawork of a show in the last decade and the writing is also superb

Really wish it was Next Generation or even Strange New Worlds for Trek. As it is I’m voting for BCS

I'm shocked Squid Games isn't killing this poll, but I'll happily go in on either The Bear or BCS because both shows are great, though S3 of Bear faltered a little bit (yes only Season 1 is promised but C'mon). BCS just gets better every season, surpassing Breaking Bad in the end, in my opinion, anyway.

Glad we're finally getting Master & Commander, have been wanting this react since Gladiator.

Highly recommend watch ALL 4 seasons of "The Bear", then go and finish watching the final 5 seasons of "Peaky Blinders" and once those are done go and watch all 6 Seasons of "Better Call Saul". My OCD can't handle not watching all seasons of a good series, though if it's a bad series my ADHD will override my OCD and I'll oh look it's a 🐿️... and oh yeah, forget all about it!

Da Bears….

we need Loki Season 2 and Succession on the next show poll!

Probably late for suggestions, but for the future you should consider watching Succession

If it were ST:TNG, I might vote that - but it's waaaaaay too big. ST:TOS is just bad. And that's from a Star Trek fan. Haven't watched the Squid Games to get into it, but I've heard good things about The Bear, so the Bear it is!

Happy Wednesday Nat. Hope you are doing okay. Going Where No Nat Has Been Before and vote Star Trek. I can see already though that its headed off into the Final Frontier. Maybe one day, and then we can get to watch the movies with you. Have a great day Nat 💛

I went with Star Trek, but that won't entice me to resubscribe and I am completely out on all the other shows.

Those are some dark pairings. Someone's going to rediscover Eureka one day.

Huge Star Trek fan, and it’s been said before, but Star Trek will not win a poll if the whole first season is the option. And honestly it probably shouldn’t if it’s the whole season. It’s 29 episodes just for season 1. And there may not even be 29 episodes total you’d need to watch if you were just watching the good ones from the original 3 seasons. It’s not really like current shows where you will miss much context if you miss episodes, you can skip around and watch the good ones. It’s a far better introduction to Star Trek.

For All Mankind

PLEASE BETTER CALL SAUL

Really wanna see you finish squid game, but I absolutely love the bear.

Not really any of these that appeals to me so skipping this one - Happy voting everyone and may the odds be ever in your favor ❤️

Really hoped for stargate sg-1

We need The Bear, chef!!

Personally I would suggest Star Trek Enterprise as a first show for Star Trek. (Only Season 3 is a bit rough)

The Bear. I'll gladly watch it again!

I waited six months to conclude Squid Game with Nat guess I'll have to wait longer. 😒

The Pitt isn’t on here, but I think it’s a good pick for a future poll.
