I'm still bingeing on older shows I find cheap in thrift stores... after Sons of Anarchy (where I jumped ship halfway through Season 6) and Mad Men (which was brilliant until the very last scene), I've watched the complete "Big C":

Laura Linney is simply spectacular, the rest of the cast sort of limps along, but I really enjoyed it thoroughly.
Now I just finished Season 1 of Aaron Sorkin's The Newsroom:

It was alright, in spite of the soap element (the romantic tangles of the staff) getting a bit boring and the political debate (the Tea Party, wonderfully dissected in the last episode by Jeff Daniels/Will Macavoy) seeming horribly dated in these days of Trumpitudes and Fake News. I like the cast (especially Jeff Daniels, Emily Mortimer, Sam Waterston and Jane Fonda!), so I will give Season 2 a go.
