Shows:

Marco Polo: This 3 season series is quite exciting. My favorite episode is the episode they did on Hundred Eyes; it is the very last episode of season one. You can watch that first if you like without ruining any of the episodes that come before because it is how the monk became Hundred Eyes. The fight scenes are awesome!

Avatar: The Last Air Bender and The Legend of Korra: This is a very long adventure but well worth going on a binge for. Although it is put out by Nickelodeon, this show has many wonderful lessons to learn from.

Podcasts:

Myths and Legends: This podcast covers many different stories from around the world revolving around myths and legends. He does his best to get the original source material, which is or can be quite different from what has come down to us through major channels. One of my favorite things he does at the end of his show is called "The Creature of the Week," where he picks a random mythological creature from somewhere around the world.

The Last Podcast on the Left: If you like learning about serial killers, this is the place for you. I find it far more informative than the normal T.V. shows there are to choose from, and they do their best to make it comical.
