    Of those, or those are yours?

    I liked a lot of them to a point, then I stopped liking them. Others I haven’t seen.

    I’d recommend Revenge to anyone. ABC (US Disney-owned TV network) soap opera-stylised drama based very loosely on The Count of Monte Cristo. A rich woman and her husband have another rich man set up for a crime he didn’t do and his five year old daughter is traumatised by the arrest (they show this every episode, or just about) and she grows up to be a rich woman no one recognises (and she uses a new name) and she undoes them and their allies one by one. It’s super satisfying until you realise none of them are really great people. Except maybe for the hacker/nerdy dude. He’s cool. But honestly, it’s a really good show. Give it one episode, that’s representative of the first three seasons. The final season is a bit different, but still good (and worth it for when she reveals who she really is… no, they never figure it out until she announces it on live TV).
