The end of the binge

I started watching The Good Wife from start to almost finish a while ago, and I have been power-watching ever since (thank you, Amazon Prime Instant Video).  Binge-watching is like reading a good book for me: I can't put it down.  Once I start a show that interests me for more than two episodes (which is actually fairly rare, perhaps for good reason), I have a hard time stopping until the series is complete or we run into the current season that isn't streaming anywhere yet.  I'm up to season 4 of The Good Wife, and I'm not actually sure why I like it.  No, that's not completely accurate, I know why I like it, but I'm watching it despite the title character, whom I kind of really don't like at all.  Weird, isn't it?  I can get on board with almost all the supporting characters but not the main one, though the trying to reform cheating almost-ex husband is grating as well.  I can't decide if it's the character or the actress or both, but she seems...wooden to me, really, really stiff, and not in an effective way, just in an annoying way.  But I watch for the supporting cast and the guest stars.  If you were ever wondering what your long lost favorite stars are doing when they are between jobs, you'll probably find them here: Nathan Lane, Michael J. Fox, Kristin Chenoweth, Maura Tierney, Brian Dennehy, Amanda Peet, Christina Ricci, Stockard Channing, Bebe Neuwirth, Audra McDonald, Matthew Perry, Jason Biggs, Martha Plimpton...and that's just a partial list of the guest appearances just in Season 4!

And still I watch.  I am unable to access Hulu for the time being (curse you, fiendishly quick VPN detecting bots!) and Netflix's television offerings are either laughable or disturbing (I had to call it quits on both Orange is the New Black and the Kevin Spacey vehicle the name of which escapes me now...oh yes, House of Cards), so I am left with Amazon to get my TV fix.  And we don't have cable here, so the channels we get are all in Arabic or other languages except for a few English news channels and a couple that run really, really, REALLY bad old American made-for-TV movies that start at odd times, like 11:10am.  Which means Amazon it is for TV!  Any suggestions for my next binge?  I hear 24 is available now, but I was never captivated by that show.  I think I made it through just a few episodes before I lost interest on its first run.  So probably not.

Anything else?  I've already seen Veronica Mars, of course, and Downton Abbey.  Maybe the new Amazon original series, plural?  Alpha House?  Betas?  Just no reality TV.  Much as I love a little reality TV brain drain, power watching Hoarders or American Pickers or what have you is just depressing.  A lot of depressing all at once is too much for me!  I'll stick with drama or comedy, thank you very much.

So help a girl out: what should I watch?  Stick with Amazon or Netflix.  What hidden gems (or even sparkly rocks) am I missing?
