True Detective & other crime TV series

Watching TV has never been my favorite thing to do, but I have to admit there's a TV series genre I've always liked: crime dramas. 

Because of my grandmother, who used to watch it before bed, I started watching CSI when I was about 10 years old. After that, CSI and Criminal Minds kept me awake for many nights. But I have to say the TV series that really caught me was True Detective.

True Detective is a crime drama TV series written and directed by Nick Pizzolatto, and produced by HBO. The first season tells the story of a couple of crime detectives from Louisiana PD, who investigate a sequence of related murders that happened in a 17-year period. Mixed with a lot of mistiscism and symbolism, the pursue of the killer takes them to very unexpected places and it's very hard for the viewer to guess what's going to happen next. It's a season filled with surprises and unexpected turns that keeps you focused all the time.

A TV series I havent seen but that I's like to, It's Game of Thrones. I'm a big fan of the books of A Song of Fire and Ice, written by George R.R. Martin, who also co-wrote the script for the HBO's TV series. That makes the series very promising for two reasons: first, with the book's writer cooperation, I know the world will be faithful to the one he imagined while writing. Second, HBO has made great productions along the years, recieving tons of awards and recognitions for their series. I want to watch GOT on vacations, when I'll have enought time to just sit and enjoy.
