Because my first one was so popular:

GGTV: Teen Wolf is a modern take on the 80s movie but still kinda fun

here is the second entry in my series bringing you good TV viewing you may have missed.

Part 1:

Contrary to what you may be thinking Revenge is not just a show for chicks.

With some series there is a period of pain you have to get through and persevere with before the enjoyment begins. When I was forced to watch Revenge I was almost tearing my hair out and gritting my teeth. Womans problems I thought, or rich peoples problems. Boo hoo some dude just lost his stock portfolio he's "ruined". Oh noes... an affair has just been outed, she's shamed for lifez.

This persists for a little while till eventually the show gets much darker, richer and more compelling, dealing with murder, conspiracy and revenge. Here's the basic set up. A young girls father is framed for financially funding a terrorist group involved in a major attack against the United States. After being screwed in a trial he dies in prison. Years later his daughter comes back to the town where she lived with her father as a child to exact revenege on the people responsible for framing her father.

Rating: A -

Notes:

• I have watched all or up to current airing on most shows
• I always say to watch a show in series order from the first to the last. DVDs and on demand helps.
