Going on an extended trip for a bit. I want to know what to stock up on.
Also wondering what all of you are watching.

Old sci-fi hands down: Babylon 5.
And a lot of young people haven’t seen some movies: Matrix (mostly the first one), The fifth element, Short circuit, if you want blood: RoboCop movies. Animation: Titan AE, Vampire Hunter D, Battle Angel Alita, Blood the last vampire.The Wire
Perhaps a bit out of left field: Heated Rivalry, a Canadian romance about gay, closeted hockey players. I usually don’t care about that genre at all but started watching the show on a whim after seeing much hype online. It’s really good—acting, dialog, cinematography, sound design, … Just be aware that the sex scenes are quite explicit—not porn but up there in what can be shown on TV (well done though and always relevant for the story).
Sense8
It’s made by the same sisters who directed The Matrix and it’s amazing. Just kinda weird wrap-up.
Netflix cancelled the show, and after fan backlash, they ended up greenlighting a finale. While the finale was pretty abrupt, it was better than nothing.
Andor.
Actually curious why a TV show?
Could watch some documentaries about your trip destination and be inspired to visit around?
Otherwise fallout.
The White Lotus. Great vacation show. Short, funny, watched it on vacation, helped the vibe was a good time.
Stargate SG1 - It’s like Star Trek with machineguns.
FarScape - It’s like Star Trek but the main cast are fugitives, there’s lots of muppets, and watching it makes you feel like you’re on drugs.
The Righteous Gemstones - Danny McBride made comedy farce about a horrible, vain, and stupid megachurch family.
Batman Beyond - Cyberpunk batman with an unparalleled intro sequence.
Jericho - Post apocalyptic show with a conspiracy mystery bent and heavy GWB GWOT flavor.
Kings - A sort of adaption of the story of King David in a modern setting.
Drama - The Wire
Comedy - Arrested Development
Mystery - Twin PeaksThose should keep you going a while 😁
Recently, The Pit is quite good. The Lowdown also has some merit.
Some older shows that are considered the best of all time for a reason: Six Feet Under, The Sopranos, The Wire, Mad Men, Arrested Development.
Honorable Mention: Succession, Parks and Recreation, The Office (UK), I Think You Should Leave

Gurren Lagan for the anime request. One of the best. Its only 1 season but it tells its story and ends.
