Q: Series online

Hi everybody! i was wondering if any of you can tell me what to do about a situation.

I want to see series in my computer, naturally! but every time i get into any page, that annoying malware, "Mac Defender" pop´s up and obviously i have to get out of the webpage and stuff. So, the thing is, in which **** page can i see some seasons of my favorite series without getting any malware?

have any of you heard of AD block? im sure you have, does it help with my issue?

MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

You most likely inadvertently installed Adware on your Mac.
Easiest solution is to use this: http://www.adwaremedic.com/index.php
Much more difficult: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203987

If it turns out to be Adware, see this User Tip designed to help you not install it in the future: How to install adware

So, does that mean you used those links to verify that you did not install Adware?
The likely reason you get popups like that is that you already installed Adware. You can check using the suggestions I posted, or just continue living with it.

Effective defenses against malware and other threats
Phony "tech support" / "ransomware" popups and web pages
