Some of those are too damn serious. Especially Breaking Bad. You need a lighter show to mix in to be able to watch most of those.

Oh:

The IT Crowd
The Mighty Boosh
Flight of the Conchords
Tim and Eric
Adventure Time (say what you will, but this show still rules)
The Inbetweeners
Venture Bros.

You know, everyone tells me how great The Wire is, but every time I go to watch an episode it just bores me and I end up switching to something else.

I'll admit I have not ever watched in any order, so is it something I should really see from the beginning linearly?

By the way, my favs are:

Deadwood
Rome
Boardwalk Empire
Babylon 5 (oldie but just keep rewatching it)
Sopranos
Walking Dead
Big C
Doctor Who
Being Human (British Version)
Misfits
Life on Mars (British Version)
Eureka
Game of Thrones


To name a few

The Wire makes no sense at all unless you watch the episodes in order. The second series puts a lot of people off because the focus switches from the 'corners' to the 'suppliers,' but stick with it..

No mention yet for Caprica/Battlestar Galactica, OZ, Carnivale.. All excellent..

The Sopranos is probably my favourite series.

Couple of others not mentioned that have one season out and are looking good.

Hell on Wheels.
American Horror Story.

Oh yes, American Horror Story was a good one. Should be an interesting new season, curious to see what they do.

I Think I need to netflik The Wire and hole myself up in my house at some point to see what all the hype is about. Thanks for recommendation Halie.

Twilight Zone.

That all at the moment, since I don't watch tv that much, although, I did saw an episode of Breaking Bad which was quite good might check in to that.

Few more favs..

Spooks.
Silent Witness.
Whitechapel.
Apparitions. Really loved this, very creepy.

Curb Your Enthusiasm
Seinfeld

I find that you don't need much else in life.

Sitcoms: How I met your mother, Malcolm in the middle

Drama: everything Soviet mentioned.

How come no one has mentioned any of the Law and Order series? I love the original (all up to the end, which was kind of dissapointing to me), and SVU even more. I haven´t seen any of the other spin-offs, they all seem too "facky" to me.

Another franchise i really liked was Buffy. Both the original and the spin-off have excelent writing, direction and (more times than not) acting. They can be a litle too campy every now and then, specially in the first few seasons, but if you put out with it you´ll find that they can both be excruciatingly dramatic and hysterically funny depending on the moment.

Some others that come to mind are The Simpsons, Futurama, South Park, Rome, Game of Thrones, American Dad, Family Guy, Dexter, House M.D, The Big Bang Theory...

I forgot this one too! I like it very much because of before-after person

Scrubs, that is all I can tolerate to spend my brief TV time on.
