Your Top 3 Monthly Contest Entry May 2020 - Favourite TV Box Sets
This is my entry into this month’s Top 3 contest.
This months topic is Top 3 Television Show Box Sets
I always enjoy watching a good TV series, there have been many that I have enjoyed over time but there are only several I can think of that I would consider as my favorites. Here are my top 3 selections :)
My Nominations are:
Nomination Number One
Dexter
My Reasons for the Nomination
I really enjoyed this TV series, probably one of the best serial killer TV shows ever made. It had a little bit of everything, gore, brutality, comedy, sociopathy, mystery and so much more. The basic premise of the show is about a serial killer named Dexter who only kills other serial killers, all while working in forensics at the police department. There were 8 season of this show and they were all good, except for a couple of seasons that were just mediocre. A lot of people were disappointed with the final ending, but to me the ending was fine, it was typical behavior for a sociopath.
Nomination Number Two
Mr. Robot
My Reasons for the Nomination
This was an awesome show, the creator/writer, Sam Esmail, got the inspiration for the plot from the movie Fight Club (it is kind of like a mix between Fight Club and V For Vendetta). The basic plot is the main character , Elliot, is a hacker with social anxiety disorder and clinical depression. The show is strange and bizarre at times and you have to pay close attention to be able to figure what is going on. There was a total of 4 seasons and it was all great, but I don't think this is for everyone, there are many technical, sociological and political things going on in this show that may not interest some people.
Nomination Number Three
The X-Files
My Reasons for the Nomination
If you are a fan of science fiction, you probably are very familiar with this show. I think this is probably my favorite science fiction series of all time, mostly because I was a kid when it came out and I started watching it. In the 90's pretty much everyone who likes sci-fi watched it. X-Files was so popular there were two theatrical release movies created from it, one after Season 5 in 1998 and the next movie came out in 2008, 6 years after the show ended with Season 9. Not only that, in 2016 and 2018 they decided to bring the show back with Seasons 10 and 11! Overall this show is great, the ongoing theme is always about aliens from outer space controlling people and taking over Earth, but there are many episodes that deal with all kinds of crazy unsolved mysterious scenarios.

Here is some famous actors in X-Files episodes before they were famous :)
Hope you like my selections! :)
X Files is an absolute classic and definitely gave me a few nightmares as I was a kid when they were shown on TV and my parents loved it - one of the most memorable and recognisable theme tunes going!
I'm going to have to watch Dexter as that sounds like a really cool series and heard my friends talk about it a lot when it was on - haven't seen Mr Robot though.
Good luck in the contest!
Thanks! Dexter is definitely worth watching, great show :)
I'll have to see if I can stream it 😃

Nice choices dear! I may not care too much about X-Files, but it is a good show. Same with Mr. Robot, haha. At least we both liked Dexter. ;)
X-Files!!!! I used to watch that so much when I was younger and I hated when I missed an episode.
Dexter is a good one too and surprised me how long it took for the cops to catch on. Although the sister got on my nerves lol.
Never heard of Mr. Robot. Looks interesting though. I'm sure I got time now to get into something new lol.
As always, great choices mate.
Dexter is very addictive. I'm in the process of watching it for the 3rd time. It does waver slightly in the middle but gets back on track shortly after. It makes you so heavily invested in the characters that you forgive it anyway.
You've sold me on Mr Robot. I will definitely check that out.
I'm going to be the exception to your rule on Xfiles. I really didn't like the main actors/characters. It just put me off of the show. It should be, and probably is, right up my alley. I may dip my toe back in and give it another chance. Good luck.
