THE COMPLETE SERIES - Introduction

This series of blogs is designed to look at a TV show (or perhaps movie series) but a completed show or movie series.  To look at the whole thing from a completist's point of view.

It is designed to look at the when a show "got good", if it went bad and whether it came back.  It also looks, briefly at the ending (without spoilers) to say whether there was resolution or if the destination was worth the journey.
