It has been an intense year in Nigeria in the political, financial and even the entertainment industry.

The year has offered quite a number of dramatic events, and sometimes there is need for an escape.

When "Game of Thrones," "Power" and all other great shows are on a long hiatus, a new addictive show is needed.

Pulse Movies have put together four 2016 shows every TV lover should consider/binge-watch.

Here we go:

1. "Westworld"

The next "Game of Thrones?" - "Westworld" is everything but "GOT." The HBO sci-fi western series from Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy is a more intellectual piece that offers deeper mystery with each episode.

The series takes place in fictional Westworld, a technologically advanced, Western-themed amusement park populated completely by synthetic androids dubbed "hosts".

Westworld caters to high-paying visitors dubbed, who can do whatever they wish within the park, without fear of retaliation from the hosts.
