Games and TV Shows I've Finished During the Pandemic

Hey remember when the pandemic first broke out, and we all thought we'd work from home for a week or two, catch up on some shows, and then we'd go back in to the office and everything would be back to normal?

...welp, here we are almost two years later.

And in that time, I have spent a lot of time not going outside, and a lot more time playing games or watching TV inside. So let's give the people some unofficial recommendations on content--here's a list of what I've finished since March 2020.
