I need to find a new TV show to watch...

Coldest month of the winter has begun.
I need to indulge in a new TV series marathon...

To give you an idea, I've seen and I liked:

Six Feet Under
The Sopranos
Dexter
Heroes
Lost
Greys Anatomy
Dirty Sexy Money
Entourage

Any suggestions?

Frasier

Big Bang Theory's kinda funny...I discovered that while on a plane of all places.

*waits for 'Haus to chime in about Hills Season 6*

lmao not at all, actually I was going to say Weeds, I got into that more recently myself or Californication... many of the HBO shows I find good and enjoy

wtf you already finished sopranos?? geez.


Check out Rome for sure.

How about Curb Your Enthusiasm, if you're into Seinfeld type of humour.

Hehe not yet. But I love it. Mid-way through Season 4.

So far you guys are giving really good suggestions. I heard good things about Rome, Californication and Weeds.

Anyone into The Wire?

Rome is awesome.

Curb your enthusiasm for the win.

DO IT! It takes a few episodes to get used to the Baltimore accent (and they take their time to introduce the characters and set the plot), but you should be hooked by episodes 4-5. Maybe the best show ever produced (including the Sopranos).

Gotta warn you though, your social life might suffer...

Oh! And once you are done the 60+ episodes, I recommend checking out Band of Brothers.

Have fun!

Jersey Shore

Mad Men

Yes Curb for the win indeed.

Very importAnt to watch Its always sunny in phillydelphiA

weeds is good.

BREAKING BAD (best show on tv) , SONS OF ANARCHY, SKINS, MISFITS, EASTBOUND AND DOWN, TO NAME A FEW.

sorry for tha caps.

Almost forgot the best comedy ever, "its always sunny in philadelphia"

If you want to get sucked into a story, The Wire is the way to go. I haven't seen The Sopranos myself, but my friends who have say The Wire wrecks it. You'll be sucked in so deep, you'll be seeing signs of spring before you know it.

I still think Family Guy reigns supreme, but this is a close second in my book.

If you don't mind taking a step back in time, I really recommend Twin Peaks. My favorite television show of all time.

Ok, it's tied with The Wonder Years, but that's another thread.

family guy? really?



i don't even like south park, but in the episode where they "expose" how family guy is written is just awesome.

"remember that time when i was toasting marshmallows with *insert 80's icon here* and *insert random shit that makes no sense and is not really funny.*"

I can't stand South Park, but I have heard about that episode. I thought it was funny what they said about it, but Family Guy gets away with the edgiest shit I've ever seen.


One more recommendation, Arrested Development. It's criminal how little support that show got. Took me a while to get into it, but really glad a friend of mine pushed it on me.

Whoever came up with Bob Lawblaw's Law Blog should be in some sort of hall of fame.

What happened to making good shows with an actual plotline... Like Lost or Prison Break....

Lost first Season was really good, as well as Prison break, and the others are bearable to watch...

I like series that get you sucked into them so you are stuck watching Seasons until you are all done) What happened to these??? -_-

Breaking bad is another good one, 24 was good but got repetitive towards the last season(Jack will always win and never dies)

Have you seen The Wire? It's often referred to as the best written American television show ever made. If you want an engrossing story, check it out.

As for Lost, it has it's ups and downs. I've stuck with it the whole way, but honestly won't miss it all that much when it ends this year.
Side note, Lost would never have existed if Twin Peaks hadn't paved the way.

I have seen one episode of the wire, and I have to be honest, there is just nothing that grabs your attention, there is nothing out of the ordinary, no huge conspiracy... It didnt grab my attention so I didnt want to watch episode 2

I completely know where you're coming from. I actually didn't get into it for the first several episodes. It took a bit, but that's just because they are laying the seeds for multiple story lines. It takes a little effort at first, but all I can tell you is it more than pays off in the end.

Thats because you don't know Southpark that well, I've seen all episodes from both, and Family Guy has nothing on Southpark on the edginess part. It's just another level.

I've tried to like South Park on several occasions and given it a fair shot. I like how they approach issues and look at them through different angles, but I just don't find it as funny.

HBO: The Wire

USA Network: Burn Notice

Thing is you have to start from Season 1 to sort of figure out whats been going on.

How about The Big Bang Theory thats on CBS.
