Favorite TV Series

I compiled the list of TV series shown below which we've watched from beginning to end over these many years.  From our favorites, I suggest Schitt's Creek and Kim's Convenience for comedy, Virgin River and Hart of Dixie for some romance, Game of Thrones and Outlander for intrigue, and Yellowstone and Ozark for family drama.  If you want to find out where they are streaming, try Just Watch at the link below.

I did not write the one-sentence series summaries.  I uploaded the series list to the Perplexity AI chatbot and asked it to write them, which I think did a marvelous job.  A link to Perplexity is also below.
