I' m no so much a fan of the later seasons of South Park. I have the first two seasons on DVD but that's as far as I will go. I haven't watched Xena in years but I was a big fan of it in my younger days.
Lost is by far the best TV series I've ever seen.
Mr Bean is hilarious, but I haven't seen many of his TV episodes. CSI is meant to be really good, one of which Tarantino directed, meant to be one of the best TV episodes ever.
Never liked friends, always got on my nerves, I do like Smallville as well.
Yeah, Mr Bean 2 the movie comes out next year by the way. I had to actually import the Mr Bean boxset from Australia. It's not available in the UK.
The Tarantino episode was good on CSI but some things were off such as writing. He wrote the story/dialogue too as well as directed it.
I was never a fan of Friends when I was a kid but I watched one episode and was hooked. Eventually bought the DVD sets 1-7. I hate the seasons after that.
A friend of mine loves Friends beyond belief, I just never saw the attractions, find their acting really annoying.
I'll only actually watch a few on TV and those are:
Stargate SG-1/Atlantis
Scrubs
The War at Home
Lost(now)
My Name is Earl
and Star Trek occasionally. But I of the ones I've got on DVD, I love
24.
X-Files.
Firefly
Home Improvement.
CSI(only seen CSI: Vegas)
I forgot all about SG1 and Atlantis. I'll add them too.
My Name Is Earl is hilarious, though I haven't seen it in ages.
I was brought the DVD for my birthday. Fantastic stuff.
The Simpsons hasn't been good for about six years. Pretty sure that the rubbish episodes now outnumber the good ones. It's a shame. These series always let you down in the end.
My current favourite is Heroes. If you haven't seen it already then download it from your favourite torrent site. It is more awesome than I have the power to express using mere words.
EDIT: If not download then wait a million years for it to become available in your territory.
I've given up on Simpsons. Futurama was the future.
Never liked Futurama. And the newest Simpsons aren't that good either >:(
Drawn Together
Lost
The Mighty Boosh
South Park
Spaced
Spaced in particular I really enjoy. It's just so easy to relate to the characters. Simon Pegg is about 100 times funnier then Ricky Gervais, who only does, or is onyl good at, "cringe-humour". It's about time people realised it.
And to jump on the Futurama bandwagon, it's good and I can't wait to see what Comedy Central do with it come 2008.
Family Guy, Simpsons, Transformers, American Dad, Star Trek (60s), Smallville, Futurama, Friends. lol.....
Have you seen the remastered TOS? ^
TOS?
The Original Series...the 60s.
If you are talking about Star Trek then no I haven't seen the remaster ones. Any good?
Lol ;D Yes I talking about Trek. I see you're not that heavily into then :P I haven't seen the remastered ones either. They're not out in the UK yet. :'(
I don't have the DVDs either. I watch them on late night TV. Still great stuff.
well. it used be Angel but now its Medium... 8)
Heroes.
I dont watch much tv.
But I make a point to stop whatever I am doing for that show.
Futurama all the way!
Also Simpsons
Corner Gas

Yes Futurama, favorite TV series, cartoon, etc. ;D
Family guy.
Futurama.
The Simpsons.

Quote"Dinosaurs"
I think I watched that when I was a kid. Was it the comedy series which includes this family of dinosaurs living in the present?
That thing was fantastic. ;D
"Dinosaurs" was set 6 billion BC.
I loved the one episode that was set in the present; when the paleontologists discovered the fossilized TV they decided that it was too earthshaking for modern world to handle and reburied it!
I got the first 2 seasons of Dinosaurs on DVD. Gotta love me.
List of my favorite t.v. shows as a kid:
-Power Rangers, all the way until their first space season, which sucked.
-BEAST WARS, in my opinion, just as good, or maybe better than the original Transformers.
-Bill Nye the motherf**king science guy. I learned a hell of a lot from that show.
List of my favorite t.v. shows now:
-Survivor, watched it since season 1, and will always like it.
-Mythbusters, great show, it's interesting.
Others:
Modern Marvels
Future Weapons
American Chopper

I like Lost, too, but I missed a few episodes and now I'm uber confused. Especially the last episode, when they were off the island? Or was that a dream? @.@ I dunno, but I can't really watch it anymore, too confusing...
Everyone tells me 24 is reeeeally really good, but I've never seen an episode. And since I don't think they'll show the first episode on tv again, I probably never will...

It was a flash-forward. I have read that they will still be doing flash-backs in the next season.

I'm beggining to really love Prison Break
Quote from: Its Game Time on Sep 12, 2007, 05:06:05 AM
I'm beggining to really love Prison Break
The first season was amazing. Halfway through the second season, the writing began to get worse and worse.
SPOILERS!
I hated the fact that they abandoned the "prison break" storyline to just attempt at having the main characters deal with the "company" sub-plot. For a while it felt like a different show, which I disliked because mid-season, I was really into the "prison break" plot. Then they just put it on hold for a subplot that, in my eyes, died with Veronica.
Kellerman was the only exception. I enjoyed him as a 2 dimensional villian in season 1, and i loved him as a 3 dimensional villian/good guy, in season 2, whose confused over the boundary of what is right and wrong, resulting in an attempted suicide. Brilliant!
Wade Williams = Amazing acting talent. One thing that was awesome in season 2, was the show case of how great of an actor Wade Williams can be. It wasn't until the second half of season 2 that his material was lacking. His character (Bellick) began doing the most unrealistic stuff for the sake of drama. Over the course of season 2 Bellick: tried to hunt down the fugitives using his position of captin prison guard, got fried from being a prison guard, tried to commit suicide, tried to hunt down the fugitives as a bounty hunter, torchured T-Bag (on of the fugitives), was sentenced to prison for murder (although he was set up), got his ass kicked in prison, tried to make a small stupid attempt at breaking out, was set free with the help of Mahone on the condition that Bellick try to pick off some small time fugitives (Haywire), and saw Haywire commit suicide right in front of his eyes. And that's not all. But just getting up to that point, I kept thinking that his character should just be let go. After having all of that crap happen to him, it looked silly and unrealistic that Bellick would continue on with the plot seemingly unphased by any of the past storylines. It would have made more sense if Bellick just said "the hell with it" and actually made a life for himself instead of chasing Michael, getting his ass kicked numerous times along the way. I like me some drama, but when the writers begin sacrificing character's common sense for the sake of drama, it gets too unrealistic and silly for me to care. Wade Williams is a fine actor, but everytime I see Bellick on screen I can't help but think "Why is this guy still here?"
Michael and Sara's relationship was handled terribly. Sara Wayne Callies did a better job playing the sexy nurse going through a difficult drug withdrawl, then a damsel on the run trying to reunite several times with her on and off "sorta" boyfriend, Michael. It seemed so unrealistic that Sara just decided to forgive Michael for using her to escape the prison, resulting in Sara facing a crap load of jail time, just because of the fact that she was threatened by the company, and Michael was the only one she could turn to, at the time.
I liked where Mahone was going, I hated where he ended up. Once we leared about his past details with Oscar Shales, I was believed to think that his character was truly a good person. He was just a good person who made one bad mistake that came back to haunt him emotionally, resulting in some grave mental problems. It wasn't until he was pushed off the edge of reason when the company physically harrased him with his secret, to force him into finding and killing all 7 fugitives. I always thought that towards the end of the season he would end up doing the right thing, as contrast to the terrible things that the company forced him to do all season, that made his life hell. Instead he ends up being the stereotypical bad guy who trys to overcome the protagonist (while also trying to beat a personal enemy within the Company) and failed miserably on both accounts. "wow Michael out witted Mahone again. That surly was a suprise".
*shakes head in disapointment*When I state my feelings on how the second season came to a close, it always ends with
"And now the show begins to stretch out tired ideas that stray far far away from the original plot of the show just because the raitings are high, for now." People always come back at me with a
"No! No! Michael is back in Prison (Pannama this time) so it still retians the basic elemtents of Prison Break" While I do agree that Michael being in a more violent prison enviroment will be a nice change of pace, and definitly intresting to watch, I was talking more along the lines of the company. I was always looking forward to the second season finale because I knew the Company subplot would finally get rapped up, and there would be more room for fresh ideas in season 3. How wrong I was. Instead of using one of the numerous plot points to finally end the friggin company subplot (and trust me, there were many) they drag it on into next season. Only this time the writers create even more questions about something that's been overly exagerated to the point where I don't really care what the answers to thoes questions are.
The second season finale would have been a great place to finally end the company subplot. Then just when you think the season will end of a friendly note, things resume as normal, Michael gets caught in Pannama, sentenced to prison, he finds out Pannama's prisons are much more violent then the one he broke out of in the US. Season 3 could be about Michael's desperate survival in prison, let alone breaking out.
As long as the company doesn't play as big a part in season 3, as it did the second half of season 2, I think I'll be ok. I definitly want some comparing and contrasting between Michael's stay in prison in Pannama, and the one he broke out of in the US. And did I mention, less company?
Wow ^^^^^^ what a mouthful!
Anyway, I agree Prison Break got really boring after season 1.
Anyone else a fan of SCRUBS?????? The seventh and final season is coming soon!
I'm in the middle of season 2 of Prison break and its not that boring. I think its getting pretty good. I'm trying to catch up for the next season.
The Office (US), Big Brother, Family Guy, MADtv, Talkshow with Spike Feresten, The other ones aren't coming to my mind.

* ER- Amazing how good this show has stayed for over a dozen years. My all-time favorite, I can't get enough.
* Lost- I'm late in the game on this one, watching reruns, but I recently finished season 1, and right now I'm happy to see Michelle Rodriguez in s2. Awesone show.
* Heroes- Not as good as Lost, but still. And even if it sucked I might still have watched vigorously just to see Hayden Panettiere.... :-*
* Ugly Betty- Very funny, and I absolutely love America Ferrera as Betty. Ugly, my ass.
* Van Speijk- Dutch cop show sometimes compared to Hill Street Blues and The Shield. Awesome if top-heavy cast, sharp dialogue and not afraid for controversial issues such as criminal foreigners.
* Baantjer- Dutch detective show which sadly ended last year. Very formulaic, with every episode featuring a murder, a series of interrogations, the obligatory humorous exchange with the whiny chief, a pub visit where the main character gets an idea due to a throwaway remark by the befriended bartender, a flash-back reconstruction and a summarizing closing scene at the main character's house. Sounds boring and lazily written, but it's not. The murder plot is always different, ranging from crime passionelles to assassinations, and the dialogue is always well done. It can get a bit predictable though- often the culprit is the least likely suspect.
Grijpstra & De Gier- Similar to the above, but with more characterization and the occasional breaking of the formula. The lead actor is easily my favorite Dutch actor, he's kind of a Bruce Willis/John Goodman combination. Awesome guy.
Shouf shouf- Dutch comedy show based on the successfull comedy Shouf shouf habibi with a lighthearted take on the problems with Moroccan immigrants in the Netherlands. Very likeable and funny characters, hilarious dialogue.

Yeah, that show rules. I enjoyed watching it during the summer on Nick at Night when they'd run marathons of it.
The show I look forward to the most right now is Sarah Connor Chronicles. :)
So does anybody like "Californication" I guess it's cliche'd but I think David Duchovny is great in it and it always makes me laugh when its on :)

Yes MST3K is a great show. My dad + i watch it a lot when i'm home from college. He has a bunch of them on DVD. We have also gotten a few of Mike's RiffTrax. AvP-R def is a movie that could use the MST3K treatment.
I just finished watching Band of brothers and the whole series was very good.

It would've been easy for me to just divorce TV altogether with exception of Family Guy, which I love it all its forms. However, my dad just HAD to show me the pilot episodes to Lost, so I'm now hooked on that now too, dammit. 8) And for looking back a decade from now, there's The Kids in the Hall, some of the best innovative sketch comedy you could ever hope for, holds up even to Monty Python standards in my opinion.
Right now it's House and Family Guy. I still watch Prison Break, but my interest has waned ever since season 3 began.

That has to do with what exactly?
Mad Men, its intellegent and feels like the time period the charaters are real but interesting. A show I can't stop watching...
StarGate Alantis- Great action, effects and good direction and actors. Also good comedy at the right moments
Faimly Guy- I love the charaters the style
Robot Chicken- Risky and hilarous every episode is unique and entertaining
Futurama-Great charaters and great ideas, I miss the show dearly
House- The title charater is played so well he could do it by himself.

Lol, I don't remember! The TV show was just a backdrop to my huge Dino Rider toy wars... :P Naw, it's been too long for me to remember much past the intro song. :)
I still wish they would replay Transformers G1 and Beast Wars again. I love those shows as a kid, I also like Dino Riders and Gundam Wing as a kid too.

Ive been watching Dead Like Me online these past couple of days, and have to add it to my list. I wish I had Showtime back when the show was still on.
^ It's off the air already? Seems like it was short-lived.
Oh, and Lie To Me, my latest favourite :)
Yeah, only two seasons unfortunately. There was just released a straight to DVD movie I plan on getting, so perhaps they are taking the Futurama approach.
buffy the vampire slayer is the best. period.
The early seasons were good. I lost track of it once Angel got his own show.
was good until unyanka got decapitated.
See, I wouldn't know that character lol. When was he/she/it introduced?
My favorite series is still Sarah Connor Chronicles (obviously! Heck I pretty much keep the the thread alive!).
I also really like Reaper, the Big Bang Theory, and to a lesser extent the Office and 30 Rock.
Quote from: DoomRulz on Mar 11, 2009, 12:03:19 AM

He's trying to sound smart by using Anya's demon name.
For me Buffy started going downhill as soon as they moved the series over to college.
Speaking of TV series, does anyone else here watch Prison Break?
Quote from: DoomRulz on Mar 12, 2009, 04:52:53 AM
Speaking of TV series, does anyone else here watch Prison Break?
I watched the first series, but gave up after a cuple of episodes of series 2 :)
Good for you. The latest and last season is terrible. I'm only watching it because I want to see how everything turns out...only 4 more episodes left apparently.
I liked the first season. Now it's no prison break when the guys trying to catch them break the law too. Now Sukre or whatever his name was will never be announced innocent, because he did alot of crimes after he broke out. Even if they found out thet he was innocent, they would still arrest him. And his brother.
Sucre doesn't matter anymore because his character has left the show. The show has completely lost its original plot, which was about breaking out of prison. My beef with season 4 is that it makes everything the brothers worked for in season 1, obsolete.

Its a fairly good season though. I'm honestly glad to see the show end, because, i dont want them dragging it out with crap, i want it to end well!
But it is dragging out with crap, that's the thing. The show is predictable and cliched now.
Quote from: DoomRulz on Apr 07, 2009, 10:24:27 PM

True, but it is now revealing stuff about the Company i've wanted to know. So, The last few episodes are going to be Good. It could be a lot worse. I will say that this isnt my favorite season, i think the third was, maybe the first. Season 4 is just taking the tone similar to season 2 and i wasnt that hip on season 2.
Season 2 was intense dude. I loved every episode, and I found myself always sitting on the edge of my seat, literally. Season 4 is just an example of lazy writing: everyone is a bad guy, no one can be trusted, and I swear to God, I'm seeing this twist coming up: The General is the Brothers' father.
Yeah. Season 2 was good. It was just an "on the run" season. I prefer Breakout seasons.
Yeah, probably, just like Jack from LOST is Jacob.
PRISON BREAK'S first season was good, then it became crap.
End of conversation.
The rest wasnt crap, just wasnt as Good, however i think Season 3 was the best season
No, it was definitely crap. It was a re-hash of season 1, the only difference being that season 3 was more violent.
^^^^^^
I agree totally.
Well, i liked season 3, because i really like season one and it was pretty good. Season 3 was a lot like it as far as it being a "breakout" season. I thought it was more intense and the story kept me on edge a bit. But, thats just my opinion.
It just had more blood and shooting. That doesn't make it good.
BTW:
Why do they call it PRISON BREAK now if they are already OUT of prison?
The title of the show doesn't ever change. Why would it? The current story is related to events that already took place and the central characters are still around.
On an side note, does anyone else think that David Beckham getting an EXACT copy of the right arm tattoo is possibly the saddest thing ever?
When I heard he'd had that done, I didn't know whether to laugh or cry ;D
Well he's definitely a fan. Maybe he thinks it'll make women confuse him for Wentworth Miller or something :P
LOL nah, he's one of the most recognisable people on Earth right now.
Just a shame it's for all the wrong reasons though............. :-\
What, getting the tattoo? How so?
Because as a footballer, he just really isn't that good in my opinion, and never was.
He was more of a style icon than anything, but now people outside the Europe seem to think he's the best that Football has to offer :P
I'm not sure the tattoo is advisable if he's about fashion these days.

Californication
Entourage
They're are the only new programmes that I really look out for.
Here's a coincidence.....as I mentioned in this thread. I just started watching X-Files Season Five.
So I put in the 4th disc last night. Patient X is the 1st episode starring..."Veronica Cartwright " whose birthday it just happened to be :o
(Do..do..Do...do......Do..do..Do...do....twilight zone music playing) :D :D :D
In retrospect, if today were 1999, I'd be saying WWF Raw. Miss the 90s...

Creepy! ;)
Scrubs is still on the top of my list! :D
Anyone here watch SPACED? :)
Ooo Scrubs is good. :) Anyone here watch Primeval? British UK show, really awesome. It's been airing in the U.S. for a time now, but I started watching it 2 years ago on the internet.
EDIT: I also like the new Clone Wars series a lot. Don't care if you hate it, I think it's pretty cool how it explores the many perspectives of the war instead of just Anakin and Obi-wans.
Best show ever : Tales From The Crypt ;D
dexter, supernautral, two and half men, simspons, family guy, underbelly to many to list haha!
Miami Vice and, er, Thundercats.
I love 80's TV shows.

South Park is the most stupidest and disgusting thing i have ever seen in my life. Mindless and the animation is, well i can do a better job on paint. I don't understand how ppl watch it? They must be extremely stupid.
South Park is noted for its pop culture referencing, which I give it credit for. But I find that all too often, it relies on shocking people with its extreme cussing.
I like it myself, although I don't watch it nearly as much as I used to.
Terminator sarah connor chronicles.
Harpers Island and supernatural
-The Wire
The best show I've ever seen, but it's also one of the hardest to get into, thanks to the initially incomprehensible dialogue (consistently thick regional dialects, spoken at the speed of light) and unforgiving writing style (by the end of the first season I'd only figured out the names of half the characters). But let me tell you - it is worth it. It's a highly rewarding thing to watch, because everything is constantly in flux - characters develop, storylines unfold steadily yet unpredictably, several big emotional punches are landed every year, and dead characters are never forgotten. Also, it tackles some major social issues; it's most definitely not just another cop show. The more you watch it, the more it'll pull you in - that's just the way it's been written.
To sum it up, it's an ultra-realistic and deeply thorough depiction of several aspects of Baltimore (police, drug gangs, politics, education and reporting), focusing particularly on a different aspect every season.
A lot of superlatives, I know, but I love it that much. Do yourself a favour though and enable subtitles when watching it, it'll triple your comprehension of what the hell's going on.
-The Sopranos
Another great show - more subtle than The Wire (too subtle, possibly) with an extra layer of deeper meaning. Basically, it's a vastly more effective, serialised version of Goodfellas - the personal and professional lives of a Cosa Nostra clan. In my opinion it could have done with more action, and probably lasted a bit too long, but it's a brilliant series.
-Dexter
This one's about a twisted serial killer with a day job in the Miami Police Department - or, at least, it was. Dex has become a bit too cuddly and loveable for my liking, he just isn't the unfeeling monster he was in the beginning. I suppose you could call that character development, but I'm not sure it's entirely intentional. Anyway... amazing second season. The first and third had a shambolic first half, but heated up later on.
Why's it so good? The stories. Really, really good stories.
-Lost
This show has had such a tempestuous life. It started off mysteriously intriguing, then became irritatingly, deliberately obtuse, and gradually shed everything that had made it interesting. *Enormous* chunks of time were wasted simply to fill up the episodes, as not enough story had been written to cover the whole season. It also became stale with constant flashbacks about characters we now either knew well enough already or just plain didn't care about. Finally, a number of characters were just written out of the show and have barely been referenced since, making every minute we'd spent getting to know the character a total waste of time.
Then came season 4, and everything changed. An end date was negotiated with the network, allowing the writers to plan all their story arcs well in advance and hook all the actors into fixed contracts. The writers' strike hit, forcing them to chop the show down from ~22 to 14 episodes - this condensed the story down so tightly that very little time was wasted, and every episode genuinely added to the narrative. And finally, they axed the flashbacks, replacing them with flash-forwards, restoring viewer confidence that the writers actually knew where their story was going.
And as a result, Lost was transformed. I'd all but given up on it in season 3, but now it's probably my favourite show still in production. At the end of each episode I'm actually looking forward to the next one, instead of instantly forgetting it. Great stuff.
-Top Gear
If you've ever had even mildly positive feelings towards the car, you need to give this one a watch. Basically, it's three guys mocking each other and messing around with vehicles. It's often one of the funniest shows on TV, and is always a top-quality production. It's been wildly successful, and in the last year or two it feels like they've become very aware of this, and are trying a bit too hard. But it's still very entertaining. Lamborghini Murcielago SV, Mercedes-McLaren SLR 722, Bugatti Veyron and McLaren F1 duking it out in the Middle East next week.
-South Park
For around seven years, this was so freakin' good, and just got better and better, evolving from the ultra-crude yet oddly hilarious early shows to biting satire and some just plain excellent comedy. During that time, they only produced one flat-out bad episode, and just a handful of 'meh's (in my opinion, at least). Then came season 8, and in several episodes, the quality started to slip. Trey Parker married around this time, and I do wonder if that had anything to do with it. Or perhaps they just became burnt out after the tortuous development of Team America. In any case, the quality continued to slide in subsequent years, and it's gotten to the point that South Park, which was once often better than The Simpsons, is now routinely worse than Family Guy (which is ironic given how venomously they mocked it a few years ago).
It's been pretty painful to watch this show fall. They're still contracted for another few years though, so here's hoping they can get back in the zone again.
-Red Dwarf
Excellent, classic sci-fi comedy. It started out as an ultra-low-budget mismatched-buddies type of thing, drawing extra laughs from various imaginative sci-fi concepts, and moved on to sending up Star Trek as the success and budget rose. Quality peaked and troughed frequently, and took a general dip after Rob Grant left the show, but every episode was at least very watchable.
I'm excepting the recent revival, which was essentially no more than masturbation for the remaining creator, and should not be watched.
-Blackadder
*Best comedy ever*. Ridiculously funny historical sitcom, with each season taking place in a different era (Middle Ages, Elizabethan, Regency, World War 1).
Skip the first season though - it's as rubbish as the other three are amazing. Weird, that.
-Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Other than the Simpsons, Fresh Prince and some of Twin Peaks, this is the earliest American show I ever enjoyed. Lots of hilariously bad monsters (such as a hot substitute biology teacher in an early episode who turns out to be a giant praying mantis, and consumes the smitten schoolboys she brings home), constantly sparkling dialogue, great characters and that all-important factor which was so rare at the time, evolving long-term storylines with emotional punch.
That said, it did grow darker and darker as the years rolled on, and by the sixth it was oppressive to the point that it wasn't entertaining anymore. Also, the last series wasn't terribly good. But for those first five seasons, classic show.
I'm also a fan of...
-Californication
-Daria
-Rome
-Futurama
-Simpsons
-Roswell
-Monty Python's Flying Circus
-3rd Rock From The Sun
-Fresh Prince

My list is very similar to your to eh mate.
Blackadder is teh best.
Red Dwarf: Back to Earth was okay, but let's hope the new Futurama series will be awesome.
Right now Ive gotta say True Blood. I was not expecting anything good, but damn was I proven wrong!
Tremors The Series. Sure, it was canceled in 2003 and only lasted 13 episodes, but I love it and watch it all the time!

Terminator sarah connor chronicles.
You are awesome.
COWBOY BEBOP is f**kING AWESOME!!!
Best anime of all time. It's a wierd combination of the past, present and furture.
You've got bounty hunters, piano bars and Saloons on one hand, but spaceships, holograms, cryogenics, anti-gravity generators, faster-than-light travel and lasers (not too many).
Then you've got the fact that it looks like it's set in a normal city and the fact that everyone drives cars, and shoots guns, and wears clothes, that all come from the late twentieth century.
The music is freaking awesome. There's Jazz, Blues, Soft Rock, Bebop, Bluegrass, even a Heavy Metal song (which kicks ass).
It's got a great plot, funny and interesting characters, death and destruction and gun battles and space battles and drugs and sex and comedy and...
I loved the Sarah Connor Chronicles too, but sadly it looks like it's all over. It breaks my little heart when great shows are cancelled before their time.
Here are some of my favorites.
The Twilight Zone (Original)
The X Files
Eerie Indiana
Monk
Psych
Burn Notice
I Shouldn't Be Alive
Law& Order, Prime, SVU and CI
Cold Case
I just started watching my buddy's copy of Arrested Development last night, and I freaking love it. What a shame it was canceled...

I got the first season of Veronica Mars for Christmas - a show i watched + liked quite a lot when it was originally on but haven't seen in many years. It was very easy to get my girlfriend hooked on it + we've already watched the first 8 episodes (a disc per night - lol). Being i haven't seen most of the episodes since their original airing a lot of it is new all over again + it is indeed a fantastic show.

Yup, never saw the movie though. I seem to remember later on in the course of the show Arnold became a sanctimonious do-gooder douchebag, which was when I stopped watching.
Helga was always great though.
Hey Arnold was a good show. Too bad they ended it in a such crappy away.

I don't think it had a season final or anything from what I can remember. I remember the creators of the series had a idea of Arnold going to Soth America to look for his mom, and dad.

The show that took up it's slot sucked the fat one, and got cancelled within 2 episodes.
F**K FOX.
And need a laugh track? Look at NBC's The Office and 30 Rock (and Parks and Rec is seriously hilarious in it's own right). After That 70's Show ended, and Arrested Development got
cancelled, Fox had nothing at all worth a damn in the way of comedy. NBC still remains the best place for
quality comedy shows (aside from Comedy Central/Comedy Network, of course).
Which show took its place?
Some "Anchorwoman" thing.. or something. Ugh, it just made me want to strangle the life out of every Fox executive. How can they be that stupid?

Just finished season 1 of Chuck on DVD... I love that show!!
Sarah is just amazing, and I have never experienced a cast of more loveable characters! (BSG doesn't count, because BSG shows human flaw to the fullest.. but I love Gaius, the most flawed of them all)

I actually kinda liked Anchorwoman, crappy as it was, just because it was filmed where I live.
Also, my updated top 10 TV shows evar:
1. Star Trek: The Next Generation
2. Babylon 5
3. Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
4. Stargate SG-1
5. Buffy: The Vampire Slayer
6. Firefly
7. ReBoot
8. Space: 1999
9. Batman: The Animated Series
10. Star Trek: Voyager
Miami Vice..........
Heh, I'm half-way through the final season of Miami Vice at the moment. Don't know how I'll cope come the end.
What is it with you and cop bromance, TJ?
I find that the chemistry between the characters/actors in that particular sub-genre has a special quality which you just can't often get in other films or TV shows. And this doesn't just apply to the two leads.
For instance, with the Lethal Weapon films, not only is the relationship between Riggs and Murtaugh what keeps the series from getting stale (imo, I guess), but by the fourth installment there's a great sense of... family? I don't know. Same goes for Miami Vice, only that's for five seasons!
I'm tired.
No matter how wierd the stories got, Rico and sunny felt like real partners
Actually, eight of my top ten shows have that same or higher level of chemistry between the leads, and none of them are cop shows...
I just think the "buddy" element adds another dimension to the characters' chemistry with each other. There's a genuine sense of bonding.
I stopped watching TV regularly a while back, so here's a minor list of what I currently like and used to watch.
1. The Ultimate Fighter
2. Anything UFC-related (other than above)
3. Family Guy
4. The Cleveland Show
5. Walking with Dinosaurs/Monsters
6. Yes, Minister/Prime Minister
7. Mind Your Language
8. Prehistoric Park
9. Pasadena
10. South Park
I am a huge Burn Notice fan!

Family Guy.
AWESOME!
i have 2 that i love endlessly.
Green wing
X-files
Well, I'm currently watching both Dexter and Chuck- just bought Dexter Season 1, and Chuck Season 2 (I'm still trying to catch up!).
Lately ive been really getting into the show "Sons of Anarchy"
I can't imagine why ;)
Love Sons of Anarchy, I cannot wait for the next season! I've always loved Futurama, Firefly, Dexter and Its Always Sunny, and i always will watch those shows.
The four shows I've been watching alot now are Castle, Psych, Freaky Links and Archer. Archer is just so ridiculous that I love it, and I Castle and Psych are just great shows with some of my favorite characters ever. I've been occasionally catching Freaky Links on Chiller, and I forgot how much i used to love that show.
I've been watching the very sick Nip-Tuck (been a fan since season 1). Also been watching Burn Notice. Can't go wrong with Bruce Campbell. As for new shows I've started watching Human Target and Stargate Universe.
my favourite tv shows are
Star Trek
Red Dwarf
Heroes (but this series ended pathetically ::))
Father Ted
Friends
Big Bang Theory
Football
thats it really i dont watch much TV i am a film fanatic i watch about 6-7 films a day sometimes ;D lol
For me, this one is easy:
LA FEMME NIKITA (the one ALIAS shamelessly ripped-off ::))
THE BIG BANG THEORY
THE WEST WING
BROTHERS IN ARMS
SPIN CITY...
CHUCK and THE BIG BANG THEORY!!!!!!
My favorite one is and always will be Batman: The Animated Series. Faithful, well done, and plots intricate enough for adults while suitable for children as well. The Riddler episodes in particular showcase this

I hear that! Mask of the Phantasm was such a great movie...
God. I grew up on Batman: The Animated Series. Such a great interpretation of a comic. Loved Bruce Timm's art as well.
Definitely gotta add 'The Wire' to my favourite TV shows of all times. Just finished Season 1 and I loved just about every bit of it.
Do cartoons count? If so:
-Evolution: I love this series, especially the intro (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0Ah5DXLtic&feature=related)!
-Godzilla: I discovered it 2 years ago. The sequel I never had, at least there is this (really good I might add) series. Also awesome intro (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZKW8FylTIA)
-Pokémon: first 3 seasons still hold all of their awesomeness today, ones about Ruby and Sapphire are "ok", Diamond and Pearl ones are awful :X
-Digimon: First 3 seasons here, from the 4th it went down hill
-Duck Tales
-Dragon Ball... with time I began to loose interest in it, mainly because it was repeating (especially with GT)
And others
Cartoons count since their tv shows.

Too bad the DCAU came to a end though since 2006. Most DC animated stuff is not as good then used too be IMO.
I love Lost, all the way. One crazy ass show with some many mysteries
right now my favorite shows are Dexter, Lost, Psych, Nip Tuck, The Office, Community, Parks and Recreation, Modern Family, Burn Notice, Chuck, and Scrubs
Alright! Another Burn Notice and Nip-Tuck fan!
Looking forward to the series finale of Nip-Tuck, I really dug that show over the years.

Agreed (though I can't comment on your opinion on lost, never saw it).
I really love the uniqueness of Tremors. It was a really fun monster of the week show if your a casual fan. But if you watch the show the way I do, it really pulls them in with great characters and a great setting. Easily the best thing I have seen on TV. Really wish there was a Season 2, but at the moment, I'm just thankful for the DVD.
Lost's opening and a few episodes in the middle were great, but then the endless reruns and crappy episodes turned me off.

Season 5 is going to be awesome. There will be no main villain in the new season though, the creators thought it would be to hard to top Trinity. I agree with them, John Lithgow made this season the best so far. :)
Oh man, his delivery of "Hello (looks at laminent), Dexter Morgan" was so damn amazing, that I had to add it in my new signature!
Quote from: Space Sweeper on Apr 03, 2010, 08:39:52 PMOh man, his delivery of "Hello (looks at laminent), Dexter Morgan" was so damn amazing, that I had to add it in my new signature!
I agree, that line sent a chill down my spine. :)
Something that makes me want to throw up, is the fact that Jennifer Carpenter has recieved NO recognition for here marvelous acting.
This scene almost made me tear up:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mge0d2gbMKo
I can't imagine where she (or other actors) had to go to do such convincing grief.
Well, she did get a Scream Award last year for best supporting actress. ;)
I actually stopped watching when Megan Fox won "Best Actress - Sci-fi" for Transformers 2 over Katee Sackhoff from Battlestar Galactica. I was just thinking about what wretched, testosterone filled, slime voted in that category (and many others). Jennifer Carpenter's win was the only good win.
That might have been the worst award show I have ever seen. And Robert Pattinson & Kristen Steward winning Best Actor and Actress in Fantasy? I was almost suicidal. That was just sick.
I agree, most of that show sucked. Isabel Lucas won Breakout Performance-Female. I mean, for what? Showing of her ass in Transformers 2? :(
I'm glad Michael C. Hall and John Lithgow got their Golden Globes though.
Golden Globes- now those were some true awards.
Game On is a great sitcom from the 90s. It's about two guys and a girl who share a flat together. It is also hilarious.

Game On has been getting a re-run on Dave recently. I had never seen it before and ive seen a few episodes over the last few months and its quite good actually. And its got the delectable Sam Janus in her prime ;D
Indeed it has. :P
And if it weren't for Dave's 2am re-runs of the show, I might never have heard of Game on. It seems I always have Dave to thank for something, regardless of the sleep I get deprived of.
haha im the same. i never have needed much sleep. If i fall asleep at 10 im up at 3am so i tend to stay up all night trawling the crap channels on my freeview and dave always seems to come up with decent to watch. Hell i mustve seen every episode of Mock the week 5 times but its funny as hell so i dont care.

Way better; say what you will about Ricky Gervais but Steve Carrell doesn't even compare.
Well technical Ricky Gervais is way better since he writes his own stuff most of the time.
Yup. And I think he's better at dry humour than Carell is. Carell is funny, but Gervais just seems so natural when he does it.

Yeah definatley especially when he writes and works with steve merchant.
Right now I been really into Breaking Bad, and Family Guy.
Still haven't seen anything on TV that I like more than Tremors. Thankfully I have it on DVD.
Dude, you're obsessed! :P
Quote from: Lt. Mike Harrigan on Apr 22, 2010, 05:25:40 PM
Dude, you're obsessed! :P
Yes I am. :P I love the movies/show so much. Nothing can top them as the best horror/comedies out there!
Im guessing you love Slither with its similar style and several direct references to Tremors. Plus Nathan Fillion is bloody awesome.

Hmmm, never watched it. Now I want to check it out :P
What? Youve got to check Slither out this instant. Its exactly the same type of film. Comedy horror in the same sort of tongue in cheek style as Tremors. Somebody involved in production must have been a Tremors fan because theres several neat little nods to it. You'll spot them all easily being such a fan.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j-y6B7UpQM
Slither interested me but every time I got my hands onto the DvD I had a weird feel and put it back. :-\
Its got some ropey effects in some scenes (hell Tremors is full of them) but I love it. It feels like it was made in the 80's or early 90's. Theyve definately gone for that deliberately. I love it.
Now that I rewatch the trailer... Alien is for sissies? WHATTT??? :D
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haha
Edit: Watched Slither last night for the first time in a while. Its a real grower. Gets better every time and you pick up on little jokes and nuances the way you do when watching Tremors over and over.
Mayor MacReady has the best lines by far. Cracks me up. The whole film is full of awesome one liners though.
MacReady: They're still alive
Margaret: Oh Praise Jesus
MacReady: PRAISE JESUS? Thats f**king pushing it! This shits about as far from God as shit can get! Either of you ever seen anything like that? You even heard of anything like that? Huh? Me neither... and I watch Animal Planet all the f**king time!
MacReady: If this shit is contagious and I turn into a f**king mollusk or something, Im gonna sue those bastards! [Speaking to Margaret] And you can sue right along side of me. I dont care if youre a lesbo, you dont deserve this shit!
Old man looking at mutated Grant: He looks like something that fell of my dick during the war.
MacReady: [after being told exactly what is going on and what the creatures are] If I weren't about to shit in my pants right now, i'd be f**king fascinated.
But my absolute favourite has to be when all hell has broken loose, the town is overrun and nobody knows what the hell is going on, and MacReady can only think about his favourite coke.
MacReady: Where is the Mr. Pibb? I told your secretary to pack Mr. Pibb. Its the only Coke I like. Goddamn Brenda exploding like a water balloon, worms driving my friends around like theyre goddamn skin-cars, people are spitting acid at me, turning you into cottage cheese, and now theres no f**king GODDAMN MR PIBB?
Bill Pardy: [sarcastic] Jesus christ Jack, let me get right on it!

Balls of Steel on Channel 4 8)
used to be a massive Stargate SG-1 fan, but have gone off it recently, although i am enjoying SGU,
New Battlestar Galactica is great, and the old series (and even galactica 1980) is a guilty pleasure, although i've found it hard to get into Caprica.
Loved Dollhouse when it was on, and liked Firefly a lot, but felt i needed more series' to get truely great.
Loved Buffy as a kid, haven't seen it in years though, will get the boxset when it is on offer one of these days.
Really Like True Blood, don't care if it's girly,
at least liked all incarnations of Star Trek
like Farscape a lot, but never watched it religiosly due to bad scheduling.
Like the Tremors Series, only watched a few eps so far, though, the copy i have the audio and video occasionally go out of sync, shame it's not on R2 DVD yet.
liked the first season of Fringe but the second never grabbed me should probably give it another chance, just incase it got good again, i think i only saw up to ep 6 of season 2.
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles was awesome, but got cancelled just as it was getting really good. (cancelling after 2 seasons is always so unfair since the second season is always when the creators start building up Canon, dollhouse was lucky in that it got fair warning though and had a chance to wrap up loose ends)
You like good tv
The Office
Everybody Loves Raymond

US or UK office ?? Uk was amazing especially since it first
UK series FTW. f**k the U.S. series, plain and simple.
Is the US version even that popular and does the average american even know there is a better uk version
Oh, it's popular. It's very popular, believe me. It's lasted longer than the U.K. version, but most people I mention it to, don't know of its existence which is a shame.
Shame hope gervais gets some recognison.
i actually prefer the US office, but then again i don't really thing ricky gervais is actually funny.
Don't get me wrong I love the us one aswell but I like uk one more.
I've never seen the UK version, but I love the US version as its a lot of my sense of humor.
Look it up, it's really worth your time.
Quote from: DoomRulz on May 07, 2010, 03:03:13 PM

and both ended on cliffhangers too. shame.
Invasion was such a debacle. The network gave the order for the show's pace to be slowed down to a crawl, then cancelled it when this OBVIOUSLY TERRIBLE DECISION resulted in crashed ratings. That show got pretty damn good when they picked up the pace towards the end, I'm still annoyed about what happened to it.
Sarah Connor Chronicles' cancellation also raises my blood pressure.

yeah just when it was getting really good.
do you know if Reese was going to die before it was decided to cancel it, i was kind of shocked by the amount of death of people cloce to JC in S2 but i think it would have gone on to have a really hardened JC in S3, but now we'll never see it :(
As of now the only TV series that I enjoy watching is "Sons of Anarchy", but I also enjoy watching old TV series, mainly the ones I grew up with. Thundercats, Voltron, Swat Katts, Looney Tunes, and the old Ghostbuster cartoons.
At the moment Lost.
Is it over yet ? I wonder how they will end this milked series. :)
At the moment? Nothing. I've stopped watching TV, well, aside from the News.

Yer but there will be a 24 movie so it is all good. I love 24.
Meh, I never cared for it. Or any show that was about anti-terrorism in general. It's always about America the strong vs. <ethnic group of terrorists>.
Ashes to Ashes - but now thats over lol
I recently been going over to a friends house and watching It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. I have to say I really enjoying the hell out of this show. It's about a group of friends and Danny DeVito who hang around a bar and get into all sorts of hilarious things!
Lost is over... What will I watch now...

how do you know the walking dead will be awesome when they only just recently shot the pilot, as if knowing the source material is good automatically makes the finished product good.
Cause if it isn't they would have to really fail because the source material is so good but yer I don't really but from what I know it looks really good and like purebreed I am easily pleased
I just hope for good characters. That's why I love Tremors. Great characters dealing with extraordinary problems. Now (IMO) nothing ever beat Tremors (Tremors was a huge part of my life, both the movies and TV series) but I hope that The Walking Dead will give me something on TV I enjoy watching since Tremors was canceled.

Definitely worth picking up the first season. It's been ages since I last saw it, but I remember it as being a consistently entertaining and gripping show, and in my opinion Alba's never been hotter. The second season went off in some weird directions and I don't remember it being as compelling, but still worth the watch.

At the moment I'm watching:
The X-Files (Season 2)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (Season 3)
''Duane Barry'' (S2, E5) is the scariest episode of the x-files I've ever seen, I watched alone last night with the lights off... not a good idea lol! Brilliant episode though.
Deep Space Nine Season 3 is good so far, every episode is a strong one. Usually with Star Trek it's hit-and-miss, but I've been entertained all the way through so far.
i never saw much if the x-files to be honest. but one episode scared the shit out of me. it had a porcelain doll that could control peoples minds and it was making people kill others or themselves. Creepy as hell.
Edit: After a quick search it turns out the episode was called chinga and it was written by none other than steven king. it scared the crap out of me. if i remember rightly the doll would say "lets have some fun" and then anybody who heard it would start to harm themselves. There was a part where an old woman snapped the record in her record player and slit her own throat while the doll watched. i slept with the lights on for 3 days haha.

god yeah chinga is an intense episode. i love the x-files, the fact it has sci-fi, supernatural, horror, comedy, pretty much my 4 favourite genre's it's the perfect series ever.

So maybe it's not my favorite series of all time but it is certainly in the top 5. My girlfriend was a fan as well but missed out on much of the final season so recently we went through + watched it (i own all 5 season on DVD). Upon completion i've been inspired to go back + watch my way through season 4 - so damn good!!

Just wait until you get to season four. That's where things
really get interesting. ;)

Godammit I can't stand Rita.
She was okay in the first season, but then became a real pain in the ass in the second and third. Didn't mind her much in the fourth season though.
I want to watch Dexter. Could I just jump right into it, or should I start from the beginning?
You should really start from the beginning, because there's plenty of stuff going around. The whole season five probably won't make much sense if you haven't watched season four.
Besides, the first four seasons are too good to miss. ;)

I'd suggest jumping in about halfway through the first season. Nothing goes on in the first few episodes that you can't easily catch up with, and the show becomes a lot better when it gets stuck into the meat of the season's central plot.
You shouldn't have a hard time picking up the show by starting at any subsequent season opener, but you'd be subjected to major spoilers of earlier seasons, so I strongly suggest starting from the first. Dexter isn't a procedural drama, storylines and character development are progressed in the long-term.

At the moment I'm watching:
The X-Files (Season 2)
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (Season 3)
''Duane Barry'' (S2, E5) is the scariest episode of the x-files I've ever seen, I watched alone last night with the lights off... not a good idea lol! Brilliant episode though.
Deep Space Nine Season 3 is good so far, every episode is a strong one. Usually with Star Trek it's hit-and-miss, but I've been entertained all the way through so far.
Never liked DS9...too dark and pessimistic for my liking. It's not ST as it should be.
It's true, the atmosphere is very different. However, I still prefer it to Voyager and Enterprise, probably because the characters are infinitely more interesting. Moved on to Season 4 now, the episode 'The Visitor' is the best piece of television I've seen in years.

Seems like waste though. The first episodes are just as good as the rest of the season, not to mention that's where the characters are introduced to the audience. Sure, he might save himself a couple of hours if he don't watch them, but it seems kinda pointless. :-\
Nothing happens in the first few episodes?
How about getting introduced to all the characters so you know what the hell is going on?

Like I said, it's very easy to catch up. You don't
need to be hand-held through an introduction process to Dexter so long as you don't miss any important narrative. And there's very little of that in the first few episodes.

Preferring it to Enterprise is no surprise since Enterprise sucked balls. But Voyager was awesome. I liked the setting of the Delta Quadrant because it explored new ideas and alien races so viewers didn't know what to expect.

Question is, why would anyone with a interest in watching Dexter wanna miss those episodes. It's not the same to watch the story through a couple of flashbacks, even if you get the general idea of what's going on. :-\
You don't
need to watch any episodes at all, you could read a summary of the story on Wikipedia. But where's the fun in that.
Setting it in the Delta Quadrant was a solid idea. I just didn't like any of the characters besides Tuvok and the Doctor. The rest seemed kind of dull in comparison, especially Chakotay and Harry Kim. B'Elanna annoyed the crap out of me. Tom Paris and Janeway had their moments, but I never really connected with either of them. Nelix... well, he's just Nelix isn't he. :P
Janeway was awesome. She was a hardcore female captain and hot to boot ;D and we can't forget Seven of Nine!
I prefer Seven of Nine to Kes. Who would've thought a Borg could be so hot :o

Is Twin Peaks worth watching? I was thinking of getting the DVD.
Quote from: Corporal Wilks on Aug 27, 2010, 08:38:16 AM
Is Twin Peaks worth watching? I was thinking of getting the DVD.
Yes.
Throughout the first half or two-thirds of the show, it was a compelling mixture of a tongue-in-cheek satire on '80s American soap dramas (such as Dynasty), and the kind of surreal, mind-bending darkness of a David Lynch film. It could often be very funny, genuinely moving, atmospheric and sometimes shocking. Combined with an
amazing soundtrack, it was a brilliant show, and that period still stands up very well today.
At that point though, right after the climax of the main storyline, the Lynchian element
disappears completely, leaving the satire to stand on its own. They also introduce a new villain who isn't particularly convincing. Right at the end of the show's life, the Lynchian element suddenly reappears, but it's too late and a bit
too Lynchian in my opinion. If you want a decent ending though, the prequel movie Fire Walk With Me fills in plenty of blanks and in my opinion stands as the finest of Lynch's films.

Well, there's a general truism that if you can make people laugh, you may be able to land someone way out of your league (see Kevin 'kicked off the plane for being too fat' Smith's outrageously disproportionately hot wife, for example).
Then again, Ellen Degeneres has yet to make me laugh...

Jimmy Smits got robbed of an Emmy & Golden Globe.. he was simply amazing.
Why'd they kill off Doakes?
Spoiler
I really don't know.. maybe because having him constantly hounding at Dexter would have gotten repeatitive after awhile (though I enjoyed it. "Where's my blood report, sparky?"). I just don't like how they had gross, pale, English titty vampire Lila do it..
Also, they pretty much had to do it after he found out Dex was the Bay Harbor Butcher.

He dies?

I dont really enjoy many long running american tv shows simply because i always loose interest and i hate waiting half a year only for it to end in a cliffhanger and go on for 10 seasons. Most of my favourites have been short lived ones. I love Firefly for example and if it had been 100's of episodes long like Stargate I doubt I would have bothered with it after I saw Serenity. I used to watch shows like 24 and Lost and just lost all interest and I rarely get stuck into the big, ongoing american series. The only one I have is with Chuck and im hoping it doesnt go on past a 5th series. I dont want to see it dragged out too much and i want to be able to go back years later and rewatch them all and when theyre 10 series long and beyond i can never be arsed with them anymore.
Anyway some of my favourite TV series which I will happily rewatch over and over include

Poorly written garbage they wrote themselves into a corner and had to use a deus ex machina to get out.

due to the nature of television compared to the long game comics can have, i think making rick darker sooner is just a way of accelerating his development

Dude, I just made a direct reference to it; I'm a huge fan!
Sorry I misread your reference, I have to admit that I nearly lost faith in the series when they introduced those Mexican twins (caricatures)
Spoiler
Yeah, but they did away with them in such an awesome manner. That scene where Hank gets attacked and has the showdown with them was simply amazing.
Spoiler
yeah I was glad they were gone
What did you think of caprica? I read they canceled it, and just when it started to improve.
It's actually not cancelled, but it's pending renewal. I haven't been keeping up with it consistently enough, so I'm just gonna watch it when it comes out on DVD/Blu-ray.
Nope it's canceled, they put the nail in the coffin yesterday, they are showing the remainder of the first season next year, and are starting a new prequel series called blood and chrome focusing on Bill Adama in the first cylon war.
I liked
Caprica.Spoiler
Didn't like it when Keon died. He was my cousin.
Spoiler
Poor Liam, sure he'll find other work :)
Hopefully. He's been having some hard times recently. But I won't go into that.

I wonder if they will get Nico Cortez to play William, as he played him in the razor flashback.
Infomania is a favorite of mine to watch. Very funny.
V - both the original and remake.
South Park
That's if for tv lol.
I'm getting into The Big Bang Theory...lotta fun. Who'da thought nerds could be so funny :D
Been getting into a show on animal planet called Freak Encounters.
Tremors The Series
Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales
The Walking Dead
I watched Caprica online last night. Its really weird with the SCI-FI vibe of Blade Runner but its not like it really but its what it makes me think of when I watch it.
I really don't get all the love for Big Bang Theory. I've tried watching it a number of times, but the ones I've watched haven't been funny at all. Part of the problem is that the actor playing Sheldon is probably the worst comedian on the planet, ruining every line he's given. In general though, as far as I'm concerned it's basically Two And A Half Men without the finely honed comic timing.

I almost totally agree, it's pretty much a poor man's IT crowd.
Although I'd say I loath 3 and a half men just a tiny bit more.

I can finally put Dexter on the list since there is finally free time for it.
I never got into Dexter. Way overrated in my opinion :-\
I can understand.
It is pretty messed up and dark.
It has this great nior feel that I really love.
Plus the premise really is interesting.
That is a fact that cannot be denied even if you don't like the show itself.
A serial killer that hunts serial killers? Bit hypocritical if you ask me.
It may be, but in
my opinion, it is still interesting.
The point is that I enjoy this show.
You don't, and I'm cool with that.
Can you dig it?
It's not the premise that makes Dexter so good, it's the execution (excuse the horrible punning). The stories are played out over a whole season, in such a way that they're highly involving. Earlier on, particularly, there's some strong psychology in the writing, and you're encouraged to get into the guy's way of thinking, and make your own judgements on his mental state. It's also brilliantly acted for the most part, and there's a sheen of quality and no-compromise attitude throughout the whole production.
When I first started watching, my initial skepticism was forgotten by the end of the inspired intro sequence, which in many ways is a microcosm of the show's approach.

Why?
Quote from: Vulhala on Nov 08, 2010, 05:30:54 PM

It's not at all. It depends how far you are taking the term serial killer really, seeing as he does extended research on his targets, and has justifiable reasons for doing so. Did you watch since the first episode?
He's been trained to put his need for killing to good(?) use, and focuses only on those that deserve to die. Really, it's not hypocritical at all. He's pretty much a superhero without any powers, and much more permanent actions. :D
I wouldn't call him a hero exactly. More like The Punisher, but with less guns.
Quote from: Shasvre on Nov 08, 2010, 07:33:12 PM

And more subtlety. I definitely would not call him a hero either, just the same way I wouldn't call Batman a hero. An avenger is more like it. I was only using superhero as a very broad term.

I consider Batman a hero though. Dexter is different.

He's killing innocent people for example, just to vent his anger and guilt.

It's got quite the fanbase, and it has very high critical. So, I guess that would make
you the social outcast.
He said sociopaths, not social outcasts.
Sociopaths commonly are social outcasts.
I watch lots o true crime stuff. The monsters really are good at blending in and being popular a lot of the time.
But I find the assumption that all who like this show are incapable of feeling to be an over generalization that really is unfounded.
I like the anti-hero aspect. A "good guy" acting like a villain in order to better society by taking out the criminals. I really have to start watching it.

I've never watched a full series of it, as it just ain't my thing. Shouldn't have said it sucked though as I've not seen enough to judge. I only really watch factual TV shows like Deadliest Catch and Ice Road Truckers.
Sorry if I caused offence.

this, a million times this. i can't stand docs like that, some docs i like, but only ones that teach you stuff, those "day-to-day" docs are so boring! although saying that, i used to really like dog the bounty hunter, but only because it's hilarious.
Reality shows are fun if there's a point to them, e.g. The Ultimate Fighter. It's fun watching these guys compete for a contract with the UFC.

Dexter & Battlestar?
Chyeah, boi.
Shouldnt that be three? Chuck?
I thought he did watch-
Okay, nevermind- and Chuck, too!
I've seen Chuck, but still have to see BSG & Dexter. :-\

I am thinking of asking for Season 1 for Christmas... :)

Shameless plug for Stargate Universe Season 2 seen here...

^ You should check this out as well. :)
I watched the last episode of Season 1 earlier today and it was awesome. It has quickly become my favorite Stargate show. It's very different from SG-1 and Atlantis and I think it has a much more interesting cast. Eli and Rush are my two favorites right now. :)

That.. that looked like Battlestar Galactica, Mass Effect, and Aliens rolled into one..

I'm watching Season 1. TONIGHT.
You should look for BSG! Remember, it starts with the miniseries/movie, and then Season 1. (It's included in Season 1 if you get the DVDs)

BSG looks incredible. I like that it looks strongly character driven (SGU is as well). And the action sequences look really well done when they're presented. :)
Is Caprica a prequel to BSG?
wow Stargate Universe looks awesome. I watched the first 3 episodes and couldnt get into it. Its fair to ask that it gets better then because i might have to go back to it after watching that trailer?
Yes, Caprica is a sequel, but I always recommend people to watch it after they watch BSG.
And, I think I just watched that SG-U trailer 3 times in a row.
Rush looks like he's gonna be my favorite character. :)
I've always had a thing for the conflicted..
Spoiler
The fact that James Callis never got nominated for an Emmy/Golden Globe makes me want to throw up. ANY of Galactica's cast. In my opinion it is the best cast on TV along with Breaking Bad.

It does get better. The thing about any new show is it takes time for the characters to form their personalities, enemies and friends. Once that's established the show gets going and starts running on all cylinders.

Season 2 has been really good so far.
And Rush is a heavily conflicted character. He's always butting heads with Young (the military leader of the ship) and there's a great episode in Season 1...regarding his wife and their relationship.

Surprisingly enough, it took Dexter until the episode "Circle of Friends" (Season 1, Episode 7) to really fall in love with it. I still think that is one of the greatest endings to any episode of a TV show ever (not including finales), and it brought so much energy to the show. And in case you're wondering, the ending was this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYNzht4h0-k#ws (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYNzht4h0-k#ws)
The line and the reason for the smile made me literally clap. It was the moment the screen went black that I knew I absolutely
loved the show.
I still think the best ending of any single episode is "Blood on the Scales" from Battlestar Galactica, Season 4. I had no words after that ending; it was one of the most shocking, brilliant, and tragic moments from the whole show.
For the moment my favorite tv serie is Human Target.

I agree that season 2 of SGU has really picked up the pace when it comes to character arcs and plot elements and I actually look forward to it now, even though SG1 and Atlantis were still better in my opinion.
24 was my favourite show till it ended, now Mad Men is the one that keeps me engrossed in front of the TV.
When it comes to TV I dislike but still watch, Clone Wars takes the cake. Some of those episodes make me want to puke and close my eyes they are that bad (close to the Holiday Special). Not good at all for star wars fans, hopefully The Old Republic will offer some redemption.
At the moment:
Dexter
Mad Men (can't believe I missed this show for 4 years!)
The Walking Dead

I just got two episodes in- it's awesome. And I only
just started it. :D
It gets even better. And the acting...oh my the acting. Jon Hamm's performance is amazing.
You watch Breaking Bad? If not, that one of the AMC trio that you're missing out on; it's pants-shittingly good.
Gonna start soon after I finish season 4 of Mad Men, watched the pilot, was great.

have you seen defying gravity?
No. Heard of it, though.
it's pretty good, you like hard sci fi so you should like it. shame it was cancelled.
Yeah, perhaps I'll add it to my ever-growing list of shows to check out.
cool, it's only 1 short season, so it will be quick to watch.
Great Classic! I haven't seen this in years until recently. Anyone remember The Pirates of Dark Water? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkshm0x0pek#noexternalembed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkshm0x0pek#noexternalembed)
Currently 'Star Wars: The Clone Wars' cgi series closely followed by 'Modern Family', 'Peep Show' and 'The Inbetweeners' in the UK. Although I must admit I still love watching 'The King of Queens' ;D
Recently saw....
Family Guy: It's a Trap! (aka. Return of the Jedi)
Well its a valiant try but this final episode isn't actually that good, there are some nice funny moments that made me giggle, afew visual gags that work nicely but some really don't. There is allot of time wasting with visual gags throughout which now, after years of FG, are just annoying and lame yet the inclusion of 'American Dad' characters was alittle cool. For me the funnier joke was the piss taking of Seth Green by 'Stewie/Vader', making fun of his rather poor film and TV career with the actual Green obviously voicing 'Luke' hehe its good they can laugh at themselves.
I did like the use of nasty violence with the action haha seeing the baddies getting chopped in half by a lightsaber, blood spurting, loss of limbs etc..something that 'ROTJ' and Star Wars might of benefitted from in certain scenes hehe
As with the previous two outtings it looks delicious with the rotoscope looking animation, lovely blend of cgi and hand drawing, plus the sound effects are all as they should be with some extras that actually sound pretty good. All in all this last final special is nice but not great, wether they should do the prequels I don't know, this did tend to feel like animated 'Spaceballs' but without the class of Brooks, big 'hmmmm' for me :-\
Doctor Who
The Walking Dead
Family Guy
I've been watching episodes of Supernatural here and there. I really like the concept (and the car) I'll have to check this out on DVD.

Yeah, I watched an episode earlier today in which Dean and Sam were trying to do the opposite of what some prophet predicted them doing. So they can alter their history. Hell, in some of the episodes I've seen, Jeffrey Dean Morgan even pops up.
It reminds me of
Constantine but much better. :)

Cosmos: A Personal VoyageI watched the first episode tonight. I felt tears welling up in my eyes. This is the most beautiful television show I've seen in my life. It was no less than awe-inspiring. Sagan is an incredibly great speaker; he tenses every word just right, pauses for the perfect amount of time to really accentuate every word that he's saying. And the score was astounding. I love this show.
I don't watch TV anymore. I love old shows though: Twin Peaks, Arrested Development, Curb Your Enthusiasm (technically still on), Freaks and Geeks, Quantum Leap, 21 Jump Street...

How's that an old show? It's a classic to be sure, however. :)
Well, it hasn't been on the air for a few years. I would consider anything that isn't on anymore "old"...or rather "not current".
Anyone watched hurwitzs new show "running wilde" it's actually quite funny.
Gonna have to take The Walking Dead off my list. It started out great, but the later episodes dragged it down a bit. Still entertaining, but not overly so.
Got through all 3 seasons of Breaking Bad.
Wow.
I think it's the best I've ever seen.
I wasn't able to speak for the first couple mintues after the season 3 finale. That has got to be one of the ultimate worst positions.
Spoiler
And the worst part is that Gale didn't deserve it at all. Jesse won't be able to cope with a murder on his hands-- he's far too emotional for that.
Spoiler
Yeah, I feel terrible for Gale. Poor guy. Poor Jesse.
I'm working my way to that point. Mid-way through season 2 at the moment.
been watching Sanctuary, i love this show!
BSG, its good.

X-Files Season 1 - Episodes 1- 8 so far. I recently bought the first season for $13 used. This show was so great back in the day. I think the first 4 season were the best before they got boring.
Dexter
Hands-down, absolute favourite.
Been recently getting into Bottom, which isn't as gay as it may sound. Rather, it's the most depraved kind of slapstick imaginable.

Can't say I've seen any of it, but anything with both Rik and Ade in it has to be good.
You need to see it then mate. It's amazing.
This week has reminded me how much I love Shameless :D
Watched some of The Cape. It looks some what promising with the cast it has an the dark tone of the show.
Finally watched the second season of Sarah Connor Chronicles. Too bad we're left on a cliffhanger like that. The show had real potential. Probably would've developed into something real special in the third season. But alas, it feels like it ended before it could really envelop me in it. Still entertaining though.
In no particular order;
Battlestar Galactica (2004)
Dexter
Doctor Who
Being Human
Family Guy
I don't watch much TV.
How many seasons have you seen of Dexter, PBA?
He's halfway through Season 2. Amazingly, he has managed to avoid having the end of Season 4 ruined for him. :o

I've just been going through this show for the first time, as I got the complete DVD set for christmas. Thought Shapes was one of the weaker episodes, although I'm only about a third of the way through S2 at the moment.

Stargate SG-1
Been a fan for a long time but recently got seasons 1-4 on DVD and have been watching through them, including some episodes that i had never seen. Of course that leaves seasons 5-10 still to acquire... I definitely feel like Stargate is one of the more under rated sci-fi series of all time. It's sets itself up for mockery from time to time for sure but the over arching story line is solid and there are some fantastic episodes sprinkled about.
Episodes
Well as I thought episode two was better, not amazingly better but still better, mainly cos LeBlanc was in it more and showing us his stuck up Hollywood character. Its still not exactly brilliant, the two English actors are pretty unfunny to be honest, still its the first time I've heard LeBlanc say 'f**k' lol!!

I've seen episode 1 & 2 too, but I'm coming to the conclusion that it won't keep up the laughter. Episode 1 wasn't that great, but it was way better than episode 2... so what's episode 3 going to be like? :-\
Leblanc has some funny moments though ;)
^ Oh I agree its pretty average stuff, can't see it lasting long, forgot to mention William Hope (Gorman in 'Aliens') was in episode two.

i like Bottom, but i always prefered The Young Ones
Weirdly I just dont find Bottom that funny and yet I absolutely love The Young Ones. Cracks me up. You'd think Bottom would have the same effect because its the same kind of violent, in your face, over the top slapstick. I think its Neil's lentil soup that I love.

I think the new season is pretty good only i don't really like how they changed abby from a punk/rock girl to just a normal everyday girl. But Lester is keeping better and better :D He rocks. Also liked how the last episode had some kind of loch ness feeling to it 8)
Abby looks so much better with the longer hair. She looks hot! lol. Lester is becoming less of an asshole which is nice...he used to annoy me in the previous seasons. Was kinda shocked when he actually smiled in the last episode.
I'm interested in seeing where they go with the storyline of Ethan and Emily. Think it'll be something akin to the Helen Cutter angle, like they know something the main cast doesn't?

The old guy said something to matt about helen cutter doing a lot of damage to the world or something like that. i guess there some things changed.
Spoiler
if you saw the promo for next week. connor says 'Jenny ?', i think it isn't jenny but claudia brown ::) just keeping my fingers crossed :P
also i think the program connor is joining now will be the one that creates the future predators and everything.
Claudia Brown is highly unlikely given that character disappeared in E3S1...too fast for her to be considered for a re-appearance.
The future predators were those weird ape things from Episode 3 in season 1 right? Helen said they were futuristic mutant gorillas or something IIRC.

here is a pic of the future predator
somewhere in season 3 at the end it was said that the future predators where made by the future A.R.C. if i remember correctly. And claudia brown disappeared because cutter changed something in the past. then we got jenny lewis. But as i suspect that helen changed some things in the past by killing those apes etc. there is a slight chance of claudia returning i guess.
I seem to remember those predators being a really key plot point of some sort. Like, the next stage in human evolution or something.
How can you not like 'Bottom'!!?? its Rik n Ade at their best methinks :)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Animated series from the 80's.) I watch some episodes online I haven't seen since I was a kid.

I've been trying to get into Chuck, but I just can't seem to get interested.
Quote from: SpaceMarines on Feb 22, 2011, 05:10:25 AM
I've been trying to get into Chuck, but I just can't seem to get interested.
Yeah, it's not for everybody. Personally, I was hooked from the first episode's charming, fun, and funny view of the spy world with hints of James Bond, Get Smart, and the Bourne series all over. I still love it four seasons in- the cast continues to be as loveable and entertaining as always.. along with some
fantastic guest stars; Timmothy Dalton being the best of all.
Not many people in the UK watch Chuck at all. I remember seeing an advert for it before it first aired and I thought id check it out. I too loved it from the very first episode. Its such a charming show and its got everything. The guys will love the action and comedy (Morgan is my f**king hero) and chicks will dig how sweet it can be. I love it. I remember saying back before I saw season 3 that I was worried they'll drag it all out and it will get stale. I couldnt see how they could keep the "will they, wont they" and the "intersect" thing going without it getting stale. Well unlike alot of series i was glad to discover that so far they havnt annoyed viewers by dragging everything out and they keep coming up with new ways to keep it fresh. Its probably my favourite TV series of the last 10 years alongside Flight of The Conchords.
Something else I like about Chuck is that the writers know it could get cancelled at any moment (it already did) so they never leave massive cliffhangers that would annoy the tits out of you if another season wasnt made. Sure theres always going to be some things unresolved but usally each series leads to something quite big and so far theyre resolved enough so that it could be an ending. They even seem to have a sort of mid season finale where a particular big plot thread is wrapped up which is obviously due to the seasons being commissioned in halfs. If they dont get to make the other episodes they have their finale and if they do, they can then continue on from it and take it further (like they did with Season 3). Theyre not daft.
There are aspects that I like about it, and each episode I've seen has had moments that I love (Casey with a bonsai tree cracked me up), but it just hasn't really grabbed me yet. I'll give it a chance, though.
My top favorites are -
House
Stargate Atlantis
South Park
Family Guy

Ashur deserved it. i mean he was going to plant the spear in gannicus's skull. Loved how they got rid of tullius :P when that was happening i was asking myself how the hell is it possible that batiatus and selonius had such an hate relationship in spartacus blood and sand but now i know :laugh:
has sparticus got any supernatural elements like gods or stuff like that? i might consider watching it if it does.
No gods in a "clash of the titans" way. its more realistic storywise. But if you like "300" you will love spartacus :P it's the same style.

So the US 'Office' is almost at an end with Carell, personally the whole thing is totally garbage and has been milked dry, they need to end it completely.
Oh and Will Ferrell is the new boss.
Which is why the UK version is so much better. They knew when to quit. Like I said before: Steve Carell is no Ricky Gervais. He just can't replicate the humour that made the UK show so much fun.
I just started watching the Colbert Report, and im loving it. Best news show on telivision.
Never seen the Daily Show?
I see The Daily Show as being hilarious-yet informative, and then Colbert comes on and parodies all of the information you've gained and more.
So really I'd say The Daily Show is the best news show, for me at least.
I consider them an hour-long two-part act. Can't have one without the other, not anymore at least.
Crusade - This was a great show that was never given the chance. Showed allot of promise.

Watching "Being Human" the US version. it's pretty good for a syfy show. I also watched the UK version but i like them equally. The US version has more "correct" vampire/werewolf lore.
I can't decide on which one to like more the UK version is faster but has better effects but the US version is slower which I like but the werewolf effects really really REALLY pissed me off...

Sorry I didn't mean it's literally over, I just meant, ya, its over. 1 more episode on Monday. Hopefully it's really good.
I think any UK version of an American show is better. UK versions tend to just be better in terms of characters, writing, etc...
american shows spread themselves too thin over too many episodes i think.
as for effects, the UK version used almost entirely practical effects, and the US show uses more CGI, that could be the difference.

First thing i was afraid of when i started watching the US version that they would use CGI instead of practical effects. Really didn't want to see a badly animated werewolf. But i was really relieved when we see josh turn for the first time in the house. It looks pretty good for a computer generated werewolf. But my preference will always be a prosthetic werewolf. But i like both designs.
Again I just dont understand this. Whats with remaking UK shows for US audiences? It very rarely happens the other way around. Do TV execs in the US think their viewers are so stupid they just wont get the UK versions because of cultural differences or that they wont warm to it unless its tailored to american viewers? Its utter horseshit. I hear theres an American version of Shameless now as well? If they love the originals why not just broadcast them. Or at least in the case of Shameless, it could be a spin off, with new characters, set across the pond, instead of giving the characters the same names and making it a remake?
Pffft.

i actually think it's more to do with the fact UK seasons are too short, the ad revenue earned by buying and airing 6 episodes of Being Human or The Office, would be less than just buying the rights, remaking it, and having 20 episodes worth of ad revenue. also BBC TV episodes are funny lengths because of having no advertising, which would probably screw scheduling. i think all these factors and the ones you alluded to, all go towards the reasons why the US remakes stuff.
they haven't remade Dr Who for example, but Dr Who is 13 episodes a year, which is a reasonable number, and are 45 min episodes, which allows room for advertising to push it up to 1h,
For me it would be hard to say, at first I would say LOST. But I like many others too. Then I relized my favorite was staring me in the face, my favorite TV show is Becker.

I'm proud. Best show there ever was, especially for committed viewers.
BSG +1.
First two seasons are awesome, then it declines a little, still an awesome series.
Mine are Dexter, True Blood, Justified, Burn Notice, The Walking Dead, Nip/Tuck. i named my dog Dexter,but he aint no sociopath, unless he gets up to crazy shit when I'm work, dog by night / serial collier by day. bad pun I know!
Supernatural - This is my absolute favorite. Other shows have come close (Dexter and Firefly for example), but this is the one I enjoy the most. The acting is great, the chemisty between the brothers is just perfect. All the regulars are great as well, Misha Collins and Jim Beaver especially. There haven't been a single episode so far I haven't liked, even though a few haven't been quite as enjoyable as the rest. I was also lucky enough to get into this show when five seasons were already released, so there was plenty to watch.
I can highly recommend this to anyone who's looking for a new show to watch. :)
Tremors, The Walking Dead, and now Firefly.
My favorite?

The first part is some of the best episodes the show... or any show has ever produced. The last episodes of Season 3 are excellent as well, but it kind of drifts off in the middle.
Look forward to it. :) Season 2 did drift in the middle also when they discovered Kobal an got all weird an religous.
Your going to love season 4 :P

So do a lot of people that listened to prior dialogue.
1) Battlestar Galactica
2) Doctor Who
3) Dexter
I don't really watch much more than that apart from Family Guy and American Dad! but they don't deserve to be close to those three great shows. :D
I think I'm going to ad "Game of Thrones" to my list. Finally a good Follow-Up to "Rome".

I watched the complete first two seasons back to back on a Sunday in 2006, it was a drug fueled blur, much like 33.

I pretty much watched the entirety of The Shield Season 2 on Monday night. I absolutely love it. All the characters are well fleshed out and they all live in the 'grey' area, there's no real sense of a black and white/ right and wrong; sometimes you're rooting for the cops and sometimes you're just not sure if you want them to get away with it.
At £4 you can't go wrong.
I'm now on the look out for Season 3. I can't wait to find out what happens with the money train and the team are going to handle Wyms with her being the new Chief of The Barn. Brilliant TV.
There's a new show starting this week Sky 1 by the creator of The Shield called The Chicago Code, I hope it's half as good as the shield.
At the moment, I'm going to say The Shield is my favourite series.
Batman TAS, BSG, Breaking Bad, The Unit are all great. But The Wire is some godtier TV.
Oooh forgot Firefly. Firefly is tragictier. :'(
You have incredible tastes.
I have yet to see The Wire... but by the gods, it will happen.

Battlestar Galactica Season 3 - Started out real great right where 2.5 left off but fell quietly slow at the end with the trial of Baltar.
Battlestar Galactica Season Season 4 - This has got to be the weakest of season sets. There were a few great episodes. I hate how they always left them hanging at the end. Now I gotta order Season 4.5 an we will have watched the whole series from start to end. Battlestar Galactica's remake was a unique series with a real dark tone.

4.5 is filled with the best and most unrelenting episodes yet. Makes up for the midway lul of 4.0 for sure, and there's a camp of people who despise the ending, and a camp that is perfectly content with it. From what I've
asked, more like it than don't. I f**king love it on a

I am deep into Twilight Zone again.
Not just the original from the 50s and 60s, which is my all time favorite series, but also the revivals from the 80s and 00s. The 80s ones are very nice. The 00s is hit and miss, but when it hits, boy oh boy does it hit.
So TZ still ranks at number 1. Wonder if they will revive it again and what new and amazing ideas they will try out.

Family Guy is total shit now. I don't know how it's still on air. Last episode I saw, Stewie was Brian's manager for something... my god. It was so f**king horrible.
Family Guy is awesome. It's the best cartoon on TV right now. With South Park ending and Simpsons being irrelevant, Family Guy is poised to become #1.
Oh, that's hilarious. Family Guy is just unbearably lame now, the jokes are long and drawn out without payoff, and rely of shock value more than ever. Also, all of the repeated gags are boring as f**k now.

That's what makes the show good. It knows people are annoyed with stuff like that so now they're throwing it in their face.
How is that good? That's just wallowing in your own shit. And I don't mean to insult you, but that's pretty much them accepting that they make the show for idiots (now at least; used to be funny. "DING!").
Family Guy is not funny anymore. The references keep getting more and more obscure, the flashbacks are not funny or relevant, Stewie is no longer evil and Peter's just a fat d*ckhead.

Obsolete Man was great! Not sure I saw the other two, though.
The only time I ever see TZ is when SyFy plays their new Years marathons.
This is a thought on the show on family guy:
One of my friends at a party put it this way, the is no such thing as a good Family Guy episode but at times (but rarely) there can be funny jokes.

Not "boring", more like "pointless and stupid". What you're describing is ignorance, you should know. And it's petty. The show is supposed to be funny, but really it's just a big "f**k you" to anybody who wants to laugh. The viewers that
do like it... well the less I say about them the better, but you get the point.
"We don't care, we'll do it anyway"? Oh please, that's a great way to f**k up what used to be a good show-- and yes, as if they didn't notice the steep decline in quality. Pfft. As long as the drones keep tuning in, right?

What are they?

Might wanna spoiler tag that really fast for the people that haven't gotten that far in the series yet. :-X
Answer:Spoiler
She's not of 'just that generation', she's be a recurring symbol for all generations before her-- she influenced and lead the Kobol Cylons (Tory, Tigh, Anders, Tyrol, and [REDACTED]) to find a new home of their own (which was the Earth they had just found in the series). You may recall the fact that Starbuck is to lead Humanity to it's end... and as she tried, what the colonial dreamt of being 'Earth'. Was 'leading humanity' to it's end a destrucive meaning? Or was it more to do with a place to 'rest'? Keep watching, I've told you a bit beyond what you know by now, but there are some large details in dialogue that is easy to miss that I've just filled you in on... hopefully allowing you to appreciate the finale more. :)
On a side note, Six had already mentioned way back in Season 2 that she was what humanity refers to as an 'angel', but she is 'assigned' to Gaius; a man that is to influence (and has influenced) major decisions in their journey to Earth... Also remember the Gaius 'angel' that Caprica Six sees... one representative for each race.
Spoiler
That does make sense after they show the remains of Starbuck on earth in the first episode of season 4.5.

Yup, that was her original self. Only through 'screwing up' and dying in this generation, she was brought back with vague memories of seeing Earth. That's also why she reported that it was habitable. The transponder was basically just it beaconing her back. This generation, she was brought back in an human form, and born a human... for that reason I haven't been able to find out yet, but I'm sure it's in there somewhere.
That's one reason I love the show, there is BIG stuff within seemingly small details.
Looking back on it now I should have seen this. :laugh: I do re-watch the season sets.
Getting back to Family Guy...
Even when the general quality level was higher, it still had a couple of major problems. One of which is a main character who is absolutely odious and never, ever remotely funny. The "joke" of the character is that he's a complete idiot and therefore can get away with saying/doing anything, but you often get the sense that it's how the writers really think. A lot of the stuff he spouts is pretty hateful, but he never gets his comeuppance, just frequently winds up banging Lois. Furthermore... compare that with the idiot/arsehole foils of The Simpsons and South Park (Homer and Cartman): both of them have innate charm that makes them watchable in spite of anything. Not that Homer is frequently portrayed with a nasty or controversial side, but an alcoholic loser with an enabling, inexplicably trophy wife isn't inherently likeable. Cough, Family Guy. Cough indeed.
Another thing I frequently hated about it was all the female characters being judged from a sexualised point of view. Meg is ugly, therefore everyone hates her and she's considered worthless; all her storylines revolve around this. Lois is a hot nympho, she gets to be the babyface. Never mind that being married to Peter must make her absolutely f**king insane.
Still... like Predator Queen mentioned, regardless of the overall tone of the show, Family Guy has produced some fantastic jokes over the years. For some reason thinking of the "cool whip" sequence always cracks me up. Generally speaking, the less focus there is on Peter, the better the show is. It's hard to go wrong with Stewie, he has a bit of a Cartman factor.
On the subject of which, in my opinion South Park's general quality level has been slipping for around six years now. I think they got seriously burned out making Team America, and since then there's been a frequency of poor episodes that they very rarely had before. The constant stream of madcap randomness that made the show such a hit in the first place is long gone, and nowadays even in the better episodes it feels like every joke takes a long time coming, without sufficient payoff to make the wait feel worthwhile. There's enough quality to keep me watching, but I used to be f**king obsessed with this show.
Stepping away from the animated stuff, even Big Bang Theory isn't as good as it used to be. Relying on the same selection of seasoned comedy writers for each episode certainly ensures a constant rate of easy laughs, but their writing isn't as smart, and the characters aren't as sweet. It also feels more than a little like Two And A Half Men. But, again, still funny enough to keep me watching...
The one ongoing comedy show I'm aware of (and I'm sure there are plenty I'm not...) that's maintained high quality is The IT Crowd. LOVE that show, and it's bloody rare to see a show hinging on farce these days. I just wish they made it more often.
If I didn't say "in my opinion" before anything, pretend I did...
Battlestar Galactica is the most captivating show I've ever seen. I'm in love.

RIP Battlestar Pegasus, all hail the return of non-fat Apollo, and when is Saul going to get a proper patch and get that goddamn bandage off his face? He would look badACE with a patch :D That's where I'm at, and the show just keeps being awesome. That's partially why I'm so excited for Colonial Marines, and have invested much faith in the plot.
To be honest, I barely watch TV anymore. Family Guy has its moments, but it isn't good anymore. South Park has gotten predictable and dull. The Simpsons flat out sucks now. American Dad is decent, but it still isn't as entertaining as it should be. Hell, the only decent shows I can hear about don't seem to air in the US.
Well if you're only watching cartoons, you're probably sick of them. Try live shows.

I love fat Lee and the Pegasus, I thought the Pegasus's story ark was the best thing in the show it's departure was kind of when I stopped really loving the show.
I'm with you on that a little. I do like the whole series don't get me wrong but after they destroyed the Pegasus it just brought it back to the same status quo like before an it was down hill from there.

I just finally finished the last episode of Battlestar Galactica. I think the ending wrapped it all up nicely. It made sense with the line its happend before an will happen again at the end.
I waited long enough for the price of Dexter Season 4 to come down an I bought it for $16.99. Starting the first episode tonight.
"You know... I know about farming..."
Still my favorite line ever. Made me cry like a baby.

Especially the last part. That'd be a scary sight once the tycho drums start. D:
For me, aside from the finale, the biggest cry moment was:

Oh god. I've seldom seen sadder things anywhere else. The scene is commonly described as "bitter-sweet", but I just can't taste the sweetness. I can't.
Spoiler
I did feel bad for Bill Adama in the last episode. He finally found a planet to settle with the war finally behind him only for Roslin to die of cancer.
First this:
Spoiler
I just watched the next episode after that, Saul and Starbuck being compellingly chummy and causing unrest in the pilots lounge, and in the end dude, I thought Saul might f**king kill himself. He's just staring at the picture and I got lost in it. I was near meltdown, but at the same time, near bliss. It was amazing, no other show or movie has ever pulled that kinda move on me.
And then this - the show is so good, it brings bitter enemies to worship side-by-side at the altar of awesome.

Star Trek Voyager seems so "PG" after watching Galactica. I have yet to watch Game of Thrones.

Why did nobody tell me about this show why did nobody tell me a place like that exists! I LOVE THIS SHOW I WANT TO BUY THINGS THERE I WANT TO WORK THERE! It's a show about a really strange antique store that sells really freaky stuff like deformed animal fetuses, Victorian hair art, embalming kits, full bodyed skeletons, kidney stones, WW1 blood transfusion needles, things of that nature. And the best people come in to by the stuff like steam punk artists, odd musicians and just people who are into odd things like me. Voltaire came in and bought a diseased human brain with tumors in it and Jonathan Davis who bought a old worldly at home embalming kit.

I hear that. Got my missus hooked on it. 'Home' and 'Paper Hearts' are two of my favourites.
Me an my girl watched the two part Star Trek Voyager episodes where they introduce Species 8472. These are the episodes when the series gets good. Before most of the episode were mild an some flat out boring. My favorite part of the series was when Seven of Nine gets introduced.

I'm currently on my re-watch; halfway through Season 3.
Same, I'm on Season 3 as well. Kinda weak...nothing too exciting happening here.
It's actually one of my favorites; it's a character season though, there's a lot more development there than in the actual situation for the characters... except for Dex toward the end. Season 4 is the pinnacle of awesome though. Lithgow, man.

I started Dexter season 5 last night. I'm not sure I'm going to like the kids and Rita being gone, but the bathroom scene in episode 1 was really, really powerful. I couldn't help well up.
SPOILER TAGS, MAN!
Spoiler tags for something 2 years old arent hugely essential
Yeah, but there are people that are still working their way up to that point in the show on the site (Corporal Hicks and First Blood off the top of my head), and others who aren't up to date, and want to be before Season 6.
Also, that particular spoiler is enormous.
Trust me, by the time you get to Season 4, it will still shock you as though you didn't already know.
Its their fault for not being up to date then!

Or people just have more prominent memories than you do? Would it really hurt to put it in a spoiler tag?
Would it hurt you to realize it happened two years ago and it's not worthy of spoiler tags?
Why must you be so childish about this? Does it really inconviniece you so much to put a tag on it? Of course it's f**king worthy of spoiler tags, it's the biggest turning point in the whole show, does't matter when it aired.

You're telling me how to behave, really? I don't care about a freaking spoiler. This is a thread for discussing television programs. If you can't handle having something spoiled, then stiff shit. I don't go into a movie thread and tell people to use spoilers if they're discussing something I haven't yet seen but want to. If I go into that thread, I run the risk of seeing spoilers. You run the same problem.
"Hey, I'm really getting into this Dexter show-- oh hey, this guy likes it too!
...f**k!"
Oh, but how impossible that would be, right? You're a joke of a mod.
You're crossing a thin line, my friend.
Have it your way, baby.
I will, Burger King.
I knew how season 4 ended before I saw it. I wouldn't blow this out of proportion. It's been all over the Internet before Doom even posted it. He didn't even say what actually happens.
The mere mention that
Spoiler
Rita and the kids aren't there anymore
is a spoiler on it's own, and the implications are massive.
Just putting
a goddamned spoiler tag on it would help from "blowing this out of proportion".
Spoiler
And this would be the second time, Doom. Remember when you spoiled Doakes dying for SpaceMarines? Doubt it.
Just because the spoilers have existed elsewhere on the internet should exclude them from being put in a spoiler tag
here. How can neither of you see the simple logic behind that?
I can see the logic behind that. Doom doesn't even hint to why Rita and the kids are even gone. Hell, they could have just quit for all we know, or been fired from the show.
Now this is being blown out of proportion.
Anybody want to defend the reason why Doom still hasn't spoiler tagged his post? I mean, of course, something aside from pure arrogance.

It doesn't matter, by now everyone has read that post and I think you are really the only person that cares.
Speak for yourself, when you say "everybody", you are excluding the people who are currently watching the series or have the intention to do so.
I'm just saying your the only one blowing this whole situation out of proportion.
Yet here we are discussing the ethics of the spoiler tag? Come the f**k on.
This could have ended in an instant, Doom edits his post with a spoiler tag, but apparently he's having delusions of granduer; I tell him to use a spoiler tag, he pulls the authority card on me.
So sorry, mods, if I'm questioning you, but for Christ's sake, enforce the rules of the site in your own posts. Really only looking at Doom now, but I'm already disappointed that no other has advised him to change it or change it themselves. Yes, I'm calling some bullshit.
Just let it go, I realize he could edit his post but what does it matter to you, no one else seems to be complaining besides yourself just let it slide.
You guys are unbelievable.
I'm in agreement with Sweeper here, would have been quite easy to edit the post. Out of simple courtesy, you know.
Finally, the sane have arrived.
Ok Doom needs to change his post and you need to stop obsessing over this, we are getting way off topic.

Fantastic you've come to that conclusion; just three pages late.
If it makes us stop arguing as much as it pains me to say.. I was wrong *shudders*
Congradulations, you've done what Doom is incapable of.
[EDIT] You've gotta be f**king kidding me.
Enough, all of you. And before anyone continues consider how Puks ended up being removed. You are both in the wrong and both correct. Doom, this is not a Dexter specific thread and as such spoilers for it shouldn't be out in the open. The same thought should be carried across all significant elements of any show, regardless of age. I'm miffed I've had to have that spoiled coming in to sort this.
Sweeps, subtlelty and decorum please. Please don't kick an over the top stink with attitude. PM Doom or one of us. You're already on some radars due to similar situations. We aren't always going to agree but we don't need a massive stink please. keep it civil.
Noone is to continue this and I mean it. Take it to PMs if you need to.

I just finished the fifth season of Dexter. It was werid not seeing Rita and the kids (as much) but the new direction was really, really good. It shows how much Dexter has evolved as a human being. Harrison is so funny too early on. "DIE, DIE!" :D :D :D

As special features for the Psycho, Vertigo and Rear Window DVDs, they included an episode of the show, which is how I got introduced to it. I have seen Mr. Blanchard's Secret, The Lamb to the Slaughter, and The Case of Mr. Pelham, which was my personal favorite of the three.

I prefered less of the family, the fake dexter bores me. I much rather watch him when he's at 'work' :)
Im not too sure if i like the more human side of dexter, but hell thats what makes him such an interesting fictional serial killer.

I just finished the fifth season of Dexter. It was werid not seeing Rita and the kids (as much) but the new direction was really, really good. It shows how much Dexter has evolved as a human being. Harrison is so funny too early on. "DIE, DIE!" :D :D :D
I prefered less of the family, the fake dexter bores me. I much rather watch him when he's at 'work' :)
Im not too sure if i like the more human side of dexter, but hell thats what makes him such an interesting fictional serial killer.
the 'monster with remorse'
But you have to admit, his evolution so to speak is interesting to see all the same. It shows that he does have a human side. Hell, Harry even says he's proud of him at one point, remember?

Judging by how the 6th season is looking...

'Community', funniest show ive seen in a while.
This show has been an experience to say the least. As a 'noobie' I am enjoying every damn minute to it, and Michael C. Hall is a delight to watch. The writing is top notch. Dexter's inner thoughts are always the highlight for me. Can't wait to venture further with this character.
And another joins the dark side ;D which season are you on?
Season One. :)
I've just bought seasons One,Two,Three and Four of "Dexter".
Time for a Dexter marathon.

Just wait until you get to the next season. While S4 was my favorite, S2 is the one I found most intense and nail biting. ;D
Same. I actually think 2 is my favourite. It's a tough call between 2 and 4, though.

You're probably going to go into withdrawal now. And you'll probably have ruined all other TV for yourself. That's what happened to me at least.
However there is a cure, two cures in fact. Generation Kill and Treme. Both have that delicious David Simon touch. And more from Bunk and Lester, well their actors at least. :D

Generation Kill was a decent watch, but I couldn't for the life of me see any kind of draw in Treme. Felt that I'd wasted two hours of my life.
The Corner is kind of a prototype Wire, revolving around the lives of the victims of drugs rather than the forces controlling it. It's a bit hard to watch, but should satisfy that Wire craving to a degree.
I'd love to see Homicide: Life On The Street, another related show, but it's never been repeated in this country.

Don't know if Kirkman is writing, but he is certainly involved, so that's good :)
Kirkman also said that he wants it to be a bit different than the comics, so fans of the books don't know everything that's going to happen. I'm fine with that.

Season 4 was really good but the more I think about it, the more I think it wouldn't have been as good had Lithgow not been in it. His character was f**king ideal for Dexter as an opponent.
Arthur truly was Dexter's ultimate adversary on every level concievable. And Lithgow & Hall delivered on that in
spades.
And the fact that
Spoiler
they both end up besting eachother, Trinity's damage being ultimately far worse,
just makes it all that much better.
Possibly part of the reason I couldn't totally buy into season 4's premise is that, for me, John Lithgow will always be the hilarious High Commander of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and co. Great actor, great performance, but that's the trouble with playing a role for a long time - viewers can find it hard to accept you as a very different character.
I don't know how popular Third Rock From The Sun was, maybe I'm the only fan around here.
Mild spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen up to the first episode of season 2.
Spoiler
I thought the second season presented a more interesting situation, with Dexter pursued by his friends and family (the good guys, as opposed to the usual menagerie of scumbags), and facing a couple of ridiculously difficult moral dilemmas. I also loved that it continued stories from the previous season, with Dexter coming to terms with himself after effectively looking in the mirror, and Debra becoming increasingly scarred in the aftermath of a traumatic ordeal. This last season's been the only one that picked up strands of the previous year so strongly.
The worst thing about Season 4 for me was Debra. So. f**king. ANNOYING. Always crying, always whining...yeesh, I wanted to slap her halfway through the season.

No, her acting was freaking great. And with all the things that happened i can totally understand her. Such a great actress she should get an oscar.
No doubt Jen Carpenter can act very well. But the character became extremely irritating and the more she complained about her life, the less I wanted to see of her. Just couldn't take it.

Wait, wait... are we talking season 4 here, or 2? Because the only thing I can remember happening to her in season 4 was...
Spoiler
The murder of her ex-boyfriend, who she'd just seen for the first time in the year and a bit since he dumped her.
yup, season 4. I'm not saying her pain wasn't justified because it was. But she spent all 3 prior seasons bitching and whining and season 4 was almost the kicker. I admired her in season 4 because she went through a lot. But it became even more annoying in season 5.

Treme's pretty slow, and has no real conflict generator. That's half the fun, as the show is carried by it's incredible character interaction and the creation of the world they live in. You'd need to watch more than two hours though to get a good view of it.
The most recent shows that I've been watching are Falling Skies, Teen Wolf (Father/Daughter time :P) and Wilfred.
I've been a fan of Seinfeld since I was a kid. Scrubs, Futurama, Parks and Recreation are also favorites of mine.

Really? I found Season 5 is when she really actually started kicking more ass than usual.
I would never say she's annoying, considering how much brutal shit she goes though. Aside from Rita, Deb is the heart of the show, and I suppose with a character who is now forced to convince
himself that he has no emotion, one may find the contrast between Dexter and Deb... annoying?

Great scene. I'm not questioning her acting abilities. I just wish she'd stop crying for five minutes at least.
You know, some fans say Deb's mouth is funny...at times it is, but I find the profanity in the show is overused. Like when when Dexter wrestles with Trinity in the kitchen and says "I should've f**king killed you when I had the chance!". I'm like, really? Was "f**king" really necessary? I find too much of it takes away from the script.

Deb's overuse of the word is constantly noted. Dexter's use of it grows as the show goes on, as he starts to give in to the fact that he does have natural human emotions; here being anger and frustration. I find his use of the word only enhances the moment.

I'm rewatching Firefly right now and wow, it gets better with each rewatch. This is my third time through, and I'm really enjoying it. And some of the best episodes are coming up next!
I've been watching random episodes of Tremors, and I think some time soon I'm going to run through the series again, probably after I'm done with Firefly.
And I've been in the mood to rewatch The Walking Dead again, but I think I'm going to wait until October, just before season 2 starts. I'm hoping that season 2 is good, the firing of Durabont is making me nervous for the show.
Damn forgot walking dead better go edit my old post. :)

I don't think the show would've been greenlit if that was the case.
Of course it would've, it's happened to many other shows too. Shows don't get greenlit based on how far into the future they can see with the story. They'd have pitched the idea about the "Control the past, control the future" plotline, but they wouldn't have said "And here's will it'll be by the second season!".
The reason I attack these kind of plotlines is because they're almost always the one that lead to a sharp, uninteresting, decline in quality.
At least this is a fresh approach to it. No other show out there tackles dinosaurs.
Well... Primeval... but is that even a real show? :laugh:

It's captivating enough. The first episode has a few parts that will make you jump. Also the characters are all very colorful and truly f**ked up.
Only 2 episodes in, give it a try ;)
problem is it's Ryan Murphy, and he can eat a bag of dicks, although he might enjoy it. ;D

They're just a few of them... :P
I've never been much for T.V shows, South Park is way up there I know that (I have every season on DVD). My Little Pony is pretty obvious by now...
I don't watch Family Guy as often as I used to.
I LOVE Greatest Tank Battles.
I watched an episode of Flashpoint a few nights ago, I think it's something I can like.
I have never seen Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead or Dexter but I wouldn't mind seeing any of them based on the chatter on this forum. ;)
I'm only 2 episodes in, but Homeland is good. Very good.
Chuck
Doctor Who
Modern Family
The Big Bang Theory
Friends reruns ;D
Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes
Primeval
Red Vs Blue(you could call it that)
I hate being in America when Doctor Who and Primeval run. Dang BBC :P
Pesonally don't find Family Guy very funny at all. South Park was good for a while but now it's kind of gone in the same direction as family guy.
What makes you say that? The SP creators hate FG.
In terms of quality... he meant in terms of quality.
I'm more of a Mike Judge fan. I like how his shows are funny "adult cartoons" that manage to be funny while not being extremely vulgar and making too many sexual jokes like SP or FG.
I haven't seen SP in a while so that surprises me. Parker and Stone keep harping on how their show is so much better and different than McFarlane's.

I really hope that Mayhem smashes Bispings face in at the Finale.
Even better, I want him to choke the living hell out of Bisping. There wasn't an episode this week!! What the hell, man. We still don't know who's fighting in the finale.
I would love to see him get "Hendersoned" again.. :laugh:

I've just rewatch it. A Masterpiece. Just 22 episodes because the show was too expensive but this is a great show for those who like Philip K. Dick.
NCIS
Criminal Minds
Without A Trace
Law & Order: SVU
The Walking Dead
Veronica Mars: I loved the show back in HS & watched the first 2 seasons live. Never watched the 3rd though. I had since rewatched 1 & 2 so last Christmas i got the 3rd season on DVD. Finally opened it up 2 weeks ago and finished it last night. Season 3 was not as good as 1 or 2, but still very good. Great series overall.
The Big Bang Theroy
These guys have way to much fun being geeks and nerds
I must be the only person in the world who doesn't watch that. I've seen various episodes and I like it; find it funny. But I can't commit to something other than Terra Nova and Dexter these days :-[
I've never seen a full episode. Watched some clips online and found them to be funny, and I've had it recommended to me before, but I just never watched it on TV.
really loving Black Mirror, shame there's only 3 episodes :(
Favorite televisions shows:
-Family Guy
-American Dad
-Robot Chicken
-South Park
-Bones
-Walking Dead
-Wilfred
-Face Off
-Terra Nova
And, there is a lot of trash talking about Terra Nova. I'll admit that it was pretty bad at the beginning but the last few episodes of the season were really good. So, I can't wait for next season (if they have one.)

Being a small child in the 80's, early 90's my friends couldnt believe I had no memory of Thundercats. It seems to be a massive childhood favourite of people aged 25-35 but somehow I remembered shows like The Hurricanes more. They've just bought me the first 35 episodes of Thundercats on DVD for my birthday so I'm about to find out what all the fuss was about.
Lately it has to be New Girl and High Scholl DxD.

Yeah, don't worry. I'm onto the last four episodes now.
Face Off
I love the creativity flowing threw that show...
I just finished Cosmos.
I actually felt tears swell up as Sagan delivered the final lines of the update segment on the episode "Who Speaks For Earth"
This one makes the list and then some. I have never seen a science program based on fact and speculation that generates such an emotional response. It doesn't just bluntly state the facts, but speculates on many great possibilites, such as the very internet I am using to say this message.
While I admit I wasn't too interested at first, Sagan has grabbed me and fascinated me in ways that I cannot describe. It was as if 2001: A Space Odyssey suddenly became real, and now it shall never be fiction for me again. Out there is a place that was once an alien thing marred by my superstitions, but now it is more real than it ever has been.
Sagan was one of the world's finest dreamers, and with many of his ideas now realities, one has to wonder what new discoveries he fortold shall follow.
Cosmos is more than science, more than art, it a collection of possiblities that all of humanity can make real if we apply ourselves. I plan to start right now.
I can't believe you finished that before I did. I've only watched about 2 or 3 episodes. Gotta get on that.
Chuck...I love the show and it'll end Friday...forever...NO! :'( :'( :'(

Why Marines, I find this most disturbing.
Marines. I thought you were the Saganborn. :(
I think I felt the universe crack...
New Girl New Girl New Girl!!! ;D
Lizzy Caplan and Zooey Deschannel, the possibilities are endless!
Probably 24 before it finished :(
what did you guys think of the Chuck series finale
I allowed a build up of episodes, so when I get back home, I'm having a marathon. Cannot wait.
The new show with Sam Neill called Alcatraz is quite good. Anyone else watching it?
The JJ Abrams thing, right? No, haven't watched it, but I've heard of it. May check it out.
What channel's that on?
Fox, although ABC has been showing promos for a new show called The River and it looks very interesting.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fbxah3k-qc#ws (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Fbxah3k-qc#ws)
All of the show scheduling for Fox remains the same between Canada and the US, so there shouldn't be any problems there; however, Global will likely show it too, since they pick up a lot of the same shows Fox presents.

Give it a look dude. You'll be glad you did.
I always seem to find Abrams' things intriguing at first, but they fail to keep me interested. Happened with Fringe.
What was wrong with Fringe? ???
Lost interest.

I should start watching this. All my friends rave about it.
And they're right to do so. It's a fantastic show that captures life in the 60's incredibly. So much office politics, adultery and misogyny, and fantastic characters. Usually lot's of subtext involving Don's character.
Generation Kill. Really good, not on par with the Wire but still awesome
I just started How I Met Your Mother and Mad Men.
Mad Men.. damn good show.

I don't watch a lot of TV, primarily because of the sheer amount of crap that's on it. The shows I watch are usually ones on DVD that aren't being made anymore. Stargate SG-1 is one show I have all the DVDs for, as well as Red Dwarf which is one of the few comedy shows that doesn't get old no matter how many times you watch it. I even went back and watched the orginal 1978 Battlestar Galactica series which was cheesy and dated but still very entertaining. I cannot say the same for the reimagined series, which went downhill during its 3rd season.
One show I did watch more recently was the first season of the 1988 "War of the Worlds" television series. That was surprisingly good, despite being 80s cheese.
Dear lord, dude, this is the golden age of TV. You need to look to the good stuff like Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, and Mad Men.
The last show I tried to keep up with in this "golden age" was the reimagined series of "V". That was utter crap, so I've given up on modern television entirely.
...
Yeah, "V" is not a good place to get into this wonderful time. It's uh... it's excluded.

You guys run before SnowDog comes here.
You know what? I actually liked the Battlestar Galactica old series more than the new one, and I watched the new one before going back to watch the old one. I found the old one considerably more entertaining, aside from its cheesiness constant reuse of stock footage. The retro Cylons were so much cooler than the new ones.

Southland. Just got caught up, season finale on Tuesday. Such an awesome show.
Monster Man
LOVE EVERY MOMENT OF THIS SHOW!
Dexter Season 1-5 5/5 (Havent seen season 6 yet, really want to though)
-Is one of my all time favourite shows,
Second time through and still awesome
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 1 and 2 5/5
Season 1 was good, Season 2 even better.
The Walking Dead Season 1 5/5!
-Absolutely love this show, I cant remember the last time a show has kept me this entertained but heck its a Zombie television show how can't that be awesome.

That's more like it. My disagreement with your SCC comments is that, in my opinion, the show was unmitigated
brilliance from beginning to end, and surprised the pants off me when I rather reluctantly first started watching. Slow burning but surprisingly nuanced, emotional and naturalistic. Great score, great performances, great writing, great lead terminator. Real shame it wasn't picked up for another couple of seasons.
My only real complaints are Lena Headey -
damn strong portrayal of the mother of a vulnerable son, yet proportionately weak follow-on from Linda Hamilton's portrayal of the character (felt rather like she hadn't even seen Terminator 2...) - and the frequency of Bible references, which as an atheist I found mildly irritating.
And the cancellation, obviously....

Fair enough.
Forgive me for my smart ass comment back there, and yes i do agree with you.
I was just saying i loved when the Terminator movies had Arnie, guess thats just because I loved
Terminator 2But yes I am glad they did what they did with the series, Also not to mention the effects were great.
I did like having a female Terminator on the good side for a change (not to mention the actress is hot), it keeps it different.
QuoteMy only real complaints are Lena Headey - damn strong portrayal of the mother of a vulnerable son, yet proportionately weak follow-on from Linda Hamilton's portrayal of the character (felt rather like she hadn't even seen Terminator 2...)
Very true, but i think she did a great job with it.
I would rather her do a great job with her own spin on it than rather try and copy someone elses performance which could turn out bad.
But yes it did seem like she didn't know much about the Sarah Connor character. (but damn was she fine ;) )

Good point - Ewan McGregor in the SW prequels and Michael Shanks in Stargate SG-1 seemed a bit constrained by having to immitate someone else's performance, and it may have sapped their enthusiasm in the long term. We've probably seen a better, more committed performance from Headey than we would have done if she'd tried to mimic Linda Hamilton's Connor.
And hell yes, total milf.
Scoobie Doo! I just found the old show on Cartoon Network, so now I can use my child as an excuse to watch it lol.

I enjoy the little hippie songs in the middle of Scoobie Doo where they do silly things to the bad guy lol.
My favourite cartoon?? Geez, I wouldn't know where to start.
But what I can tell you is that I watch on and off, The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show, X-Men, Spider-Man, Tiny Toons, Garfield and Friends, Fantastic Four, and The Incredible Hulk. Oh how I love this digital age we live in.
Good selections. I picked up the entire collector tin of the Voltron, now working on Robotech: Macross.
I never saw that. The only cartoons I ever watched as a kid was anything that was on TV during that time; shows of the day, I mean. If a re-run from an 80s show was on I'd watch it hence how I discovered GnF and Transformers but those were few and far between.
I do remember being a fan of the cartoon Cops, if anyone remembers it.

Note: I actually started to watch Supernatural, when I am able to catch it. They're airing the episode with the Wendigo right now -- reminds me of The Descent. Pretty cool.
I miss Primeval. Thank God it was allowed to run its course properly and not have any loose ends.

It looks like Alcatraz isn't returning for a second season after all :'(

I honestly don't think Fox knows how to keep a show on air for more than a season...
That would have to be New Girl. I think that the show is just great and funny in all aspects. It does not take anything away even if they chose to go with 3 relatively unfamiliar guys to propel the show. But they sure have a great chemistry together which only works to their advantage and actually how they work together to make the show more interesting.

More to do with the audience not being able to watch a show for more than a season... and the only show I can think of that FOX has done that got cancelled after only one season that actually deserved another was Firefly, which had the worth of every shitty show on FOX that has been cancelled after one season combined, and some of those that had gone on way longer than they had to.
Alcatraz
it was aliens, the end, move along people.
Anyway, fave tv show, think I've said it before, so I'll say it again.
The X-Files
seeing the show the moment it started cemented bits of my personality that day. Amazing show, everything about it except for when Mulder got replaced by the T-1000 was fantastic, no other show has been this awesome for me. The only thing that comes close is Supernatural, but even that can't toe to toe with The X-Files.
Still haven't watched Fringe, surprised that it even made it past season 1 to be honest.
Have you seen Breaking Bad Season 4 yet?

Alcatraz definitely deserved a second season. It ended on a major cliffhanger and the series was picking up momentum in terms of story. The trouble with people today is that they can't appreciate something new and original. It's nice to keep what works sure, but man, learn to watch something new.
Definitely adding Falling Skies to my list. So good of a show.
saw a tweet about a show titled 'Revolution' from Jon Favreau and J.J. Abrams, looks interesting:

Well my two favorites are The Walking Dead and Being Human (U.S. version). With The Walking Dead being my overall favorite by a narrow margin that could possibly change when the new seasons start.
Does anyone else here watch British sitcoms? I'm a huge Yes, Minister fan, as well as Keeping Up Appearances and Are You Being Served?
My favorite are:
Doctor who
Eureka
Fringe
Tremors(yeah, I know, it's an old series but it's pretty awesome)
Primeval
And my favorite animated series are MIB and Godzilla: The Series...of course :)

Very awesome indeed. The
Tremors movies are actually my all time favorites, and I love the show as well ;D
Gonna be watching the series very soon. Dat Victor Browne.... 8)
Dat Gladys Jimenez.
Dat Sarah Rafferty.
And, even more awesome, dem Burt lines. Especially in the hilariously ironic episode "A Little Paranoia Among Friends". Has some excellent banter between Burt and Tyler, and it throws Burt in one of the greatest situations I've ever seen him in :D
The ep where Tyler goes gratuitously shirtless in a towel. I know it well 8)
I was thinking more along the lines of the Government agent subplot, but whatever works for you :P

Welcome to AVPGalxy, fellow
Tremors fan.
I know I already posted on this but I wanted to say that although it is
very close between The Walking Dead and Being Human (U.S. version) when it comes to my favorite TV series, I may have to give the slight edge to Being Human. They are neck and neck when it comes to most things...I think what puts Being Human over The Walking Dead for me are the main characters. What I mean is that I care far more about Aidan (Being Human played by Sam Witwer) then I do about Rick (The Walking dead played by Andrew Lincoln). I also thought the character of Shane Walsh was the far more dynamic and compelling character compared to Rick. Anyways Aidan is the main reason why I prefer Being Human by a very narrow margin.

Do you read the TWD comics? I'm not going to spoil anything, but given the ending of season 2 and some of the things that happened in the comic, I think we can expect a few changes from Rick this time around that may be to your liking :)

No I don't read TWD comics, but I am aware of what may come in Season 3. I liked the character development of Rick towards the end of Season 2 though.

No but I'll check it out. Season Ten of Red Dwarf is on its way so I cant wait for that. I'm also a fan of Open All Hours, Dad's Army and Men Behaving Badly, i think there was a period from late 70's to mid nineties where British Comedy was literally untouchable
Damn, I haven't heard of any of those. I'll look em up though. I grew up with AYBS? and KUA. My mum is a huge fan of Waiting For God but I never got into it. The show seems to revolve entirely a cranky old lady and not much else.
Modern Family is quite a funny tv series. I only recently started watching it and it was pretty cool.

There are...
other means to acquire that which you wish.
I know of many.
As of recently
Breaking Bad
Six Feet Under
The Sopranos
Tried so hard to get into The Wire, went as far as Season 3, but I just can't get into it.

29 days to go!!!
Oh yeah, it's September first today...
Strongly recommend Romanzo Criminale, Italian mobster drama set in the '70s to early '80s (yes, subtitled). Quality level is on a par with The Sopranos and The Wire, with outstanding production, acting and writing. It's more like The Godfather than either of those though, immersing you in the period culture, and being fairly epic in terms of scope, narrative progression and character development - you empathise with them a lot early on, but by the end of the first series it's become extremely dark and tense.
I finally started watching Season 1 of Breaking Bad last night on Netflix. I think I'm realizing why everyone is so obsessed with this show.
"f**k YOU AND YOUR EYEBROWS!!!" :D :D :D

By first season, do you mean when it started in the US or when it started in the UK? Technically it's on season 3 right now, but season 2 for when it was picked up by Cinemax.
When it started in the US. As in the first ten episodes, and the Latif story arc.
Ok.
Then I am currently on Season 2 Episode 5 I think.
Did you watch the 6 UK episodes?
No, I haven't seen the UK version. Only one I've seen is the Cinemax version with Philip Winchester & Sullivan Stapleton. I picked it up on Blu-ray and the first ten eps are labeled as "season one."
Check out the 6 original episodes. You aren't missing anything by not seeing them except
Spoiler
John Porter is a total bad ass and you'll feel like shit when you see him executed in the beginning of Cinemax season 1.
and Andrew Lincoln is in it too.
Other than the spoiler tag, nothing else carries over from the UK episodes.
Cool, I've have to look into it. :)

I probably forgot some too. Right now, Doctor Who (dang!) and The Killing S3 is airing here, but I don't think it's as good as S1.
Btw, that's an impressive list. How do you find the time to watch all these shows? :D

Well, I'm counting shows I've seen since long ago. ;) There's still a lot I haven't seen (Buffy, Angel, Charmed etc.) and some I'm not as interested in although they may have been or are quite popular (e.g. Smallville).

I don't watch that much T.V in comparison to others.
There are only two I've ever been dedicated to.
- My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
- South Park (not as much anymore)
The Walking Dead, I've seen enough to know what is going down in a basic sense. I saw the all day marathons for seasons 1 and 2.
I remember stuff like Batman, Duck Dodgers, and Looney Tunes in my childhood, there is probably
much more.
My brother has been showing me Duck Dynasty.

Game of Thrones, I can't say it is a favourite for I have never actually seen it but I've always been interested in getting into it, I don't even know what channel it is on though. I believe I asked a long time ago on here where I can access episodes on the internet but was never answered.

I like it alot actually, the acting is ok and the CGI dino's are done pretty well. The story line is pretty decent as well, but I could see tht maybe afew better written scripts could have done better specially with the last episode that I watched. If you like this sort of series you should check out Terra Nova, thats got a decent storyline as well.
I've seen Terra Nova and I wish it was still on TV. I'll be sure to look up the new Primeval.

Many evening shows I watched with Dad. Most were B&W.
Onset of puberty meant that less and less telly was endured.
Sports, cars, and girls arrived.
Gonna add True Blood and Being Human(U.S) to my lists of favorites.
I watched an episode of American Dad with my step brothers earlier tonight. It's funnier than I remember but I don't see myself re-visiting it like Family Guy. FG will always be #1 for me.

Beast Wars: Transformers

American Dad's more consistently funny in my opinion, but it's lacking some of the
really memorable gags that Family Guy's littered with (cool whip, Surfin' Bird, chicken fighting, hurt knees, the guy who explains jokes).
Both of them leave a bad taste in my mouth from all the racism and sexism, but with American Dad that's also part of the joke, as Stan's right wing to the point of absurdity.

I really liked Becker. Ted Danson was funny to me in that show, also I'm a fan of Shawnee Smith, she was always goofy, yet cute on there all the time.

Quite a few brave storytelling choices on that one.
And the movie was great too! :)
Man I can't believe it 'The Office' is finally finishing and now the series gets much better with Dwight in charge ::) sheesh!

Oh I agree there but season 2/3 of the US show was for me its peak of brilliance. After that it just went on for too long and became a farce with episodes about nothing basically.
A different kind of humour though, UK was more subtle with realism and embarrassment. US was a more in your face and spoof-like but still cringeworthy at the same time in places.

Again I agree, the series went down hill but not entirely, Dwight still managed to keep things fun from time to time.
Did you know about the cameo from Gervais? at one point I thought he was gonna be the new boss of the American series, now that would of been sweet :) The episode where he was interviewing for the job was fantastic...even though it was a video application and very short.
Seriously? Which episode was that?

I will never and I mean NEVER understand why people like that piece of shit. U cant understand ANYTHING anyone is saying. Gareth is just an ugly guy with no character, not the insane, competitive wreck of awesomeness that our Dwight is. While Brent is funny (when I can understand him) he's got NOTHING on Michael Scott's brilliance. Most of the cast is
just there.
The Office is my second favorite show, and while season 2 - 4 were it's peak, it's miles above the original. It took a good idea and made it better.

Oh my...any English fans see this and....hello??
To be honest...are you an American? cos if you are that will pretty much sum up why you hate the original. Plus as I said the British version is a much different comedy style than the US. The British is...dare I say more sophisticated really, the comedy is much more subtle, realistic, sharper, awkward and incredibly embarrassing to native UK viewers, especially those with office experience.
The US show is a more in your face, spoof-like, loud, brash, movie-esque approach that we see in US films more often. All the cast in the US show are great, I especially love 'Creed' and of course 'Dwight' and 'Scott' but you really can't compare the two because both shows are VASTLY different.
I know it doesn't seem like it but they are, many UK fans hate the US show because they think its dumb so...
It depends where you are with you're life/work experiences.
Meh, I just watched it and liked it. I guess I just had an open mind about it; and I'm Canadian.
Canada: Halfway between British and American.
Well that's that for 'The Office'. Such a shame that both the finale and the special were pretty poor frankly. The special could of been longer and had more interviews with more of the cast, outtakes, insights, general making of etc...it was really weak, not even much on the Scranton parade thingy.
As for the final show it was terrible! not remotely funny, everyone kept choking up and crying ::) I mean come on! lets at least keep the characters shit together for the plot. It just felt like a wishy washy excuse for everyone to say goodbye with pointless aimless nonsense. Lots of pointless cameos and Carell turns up for no reason other than to show his face, hardly any dialog :-\ waste.
I thought the finale was great. Yeah it was more drama based but the whole last season was. Seeing Scott, who is one of my personal heroes, return was awesome. Him being gone for 2 years and returning looking like he aged 15 years was weird but him having a family made the whole episode worth it.

1. Urusei Yatsura - the definition of how an animated show can be so bizarre and hilarious at once! Sure it is dated (early to mid 80's) but I just LOVE this show (and Lum). She can shock me any day so long as I am her boyfriend and I will reluctantly eat her cooking!
2. Breaking Bad - The end of the road or the beginning of something else? I think its going to be Walt with a gun pointed at Hank and Jesse. He realizes what he has become and the worst in him got the best in him, then turns the gun on himself and apologizes. Gunshot. Black screen. The End. That's my guess on the final episode ending.
3. Arrested Development - The first show on TV that made me literally crave for the next episode... then they canceled it, then (thankfully!) brought it back. The new season is great IF you watch it all the way thru in the correct order.
4. The Simpsons - Last season was OK but I feel the end is coming soon. Far too late I'm afraid, but I will still watch.
5. Married With Children - Al Bundy is the man.
6. The X-Files - The show that pretty much demanded me to watch and learn about all things sci-fi.
7. ALF - I watched this show as a three/four year old and still watch it to this day. My first introduction to sci-fi.
8. South Park - do I REALLY need to say anything about this show?
9. Family Guy - Used to be in my top 3 until the writing went STRAIGHT downhill. The only decent episode in the last 7 years was when Stewie was on steroids. I still watch new episodes even though they just let me down.
10. Tales From The Darkside - I still swear that the opening sequence was recorded a few miles from my house in SW PA!

He realizes what he has become and the worst in him got the best in him, then turns the gun on himself and apologizes. Gunshot. Black screen. The End. That's my guess on the final episode ending.
I envisioned a big shootout with Walt and the DEA while Walt is holed up somewhere. Why else would he have bought an M60?
I guess my theory is after the shootout with the DEA ;)
I think that it's a bit too predictable that the M60 was meant for the DEA. Obviously, wherever he's been, it's been nearly a year (indicated by the birthday breakfasts) and judging by his tattered look, he's been on the run or at least in hiding. I can't think of a single thing he would get out of comitting a one-man assault against a police force... it's Walter White, not a coked out Tony Montana.
If anything, I think it'll be the [previously] rival cartel from Season 5 that Walt convinced to do business with him; they've probably got some grievances with the fact that Walt has stopped manufacturing for them. Hell, Walt may even fall into a situation in which he'll be helping Hank so far-- and the DEA by extent.
After Hank became so disenchanted with the rules of law enforcement, closing his Heisenberg case, I wouldn't be surprised if the main goal became not to get rid of Heisenberg, but the main manufacturer (I'm not saying Lydia would slip and given away the formula... but Lydia would probably slip and give away the formula) of the blue meth in general-- Walt may be the only person that could make that happen.
^ I honestly think somehow Lydia is going to be killed in the first new episode. When I originally seen Walt get the M60 I was thinking that it was paranoid protection, but anything can happen! I read that Vince G. cried during the filming of the final episode so I am assuming that Walt does go down... but how is yet to be seen.
Well, he's stated multiple times that Breaking Bad is essentially the culmination of everything he's aspired to do creatively, so seeing that come to a close, much more a rewarding one, would be emotional enough. I wouldn't necessarily tie that to a death.
LOST is my favorite...ever.
Seeing as I'm now all wrapped up with BSG (though I am about to start Caprica), I'll hopefully be starting that very soon! ;D
Just gotta get the DVDs from a friend.

Goddamn it, there's too much TV I need to catch up on.
Have you watched Game of Thrones, TJ? That seems like something you'd highly enjoy. And the revolving door of actors the show pulls in is fantastic.
Hannibal
Haters gonna hate. :P
They're in very limited supply. And haven't seen it.
Me neither, but it's on the list.

I've seen about ten minutes of the first episode, and what I saw looked damn good. So I'll be sure to get back into it at some point.
Even though the internet has kind of spoiled everything so far. :P

Well yeah, the only common complaint I'm aware of is that the opening credits sequence goes on for, like, days.
Those who want something new and hairy:
Whisker Wars
I may be in one of next season's episodes! :P
Supernatural, Revoloution, Moonlight, Forever night, True blood, Teen wolf, Naruto (Shippuden included), Bleach, Code geass, One piece, Chrono Crusade, River monsters, Storm chasers, Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Lizard lick towing, These are all I can think of at the moment. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Thinking back to shows I used to watch as a kid, I was a Buffy fan. Sarah Michelle Gellar was hot of course but the showed I genuinely enjoyed.

I still think of that as one of the three best shows of all time, alongside The Wire and The Sopranos. They form kind of a triumverate - The Sopranos combines gritty naturalism with a layer of subtext and deeper interpretation, The Wire is virtually all realism, and Buffy is almost entirely metaphor for its first couple of seasons.
But yeah, it's very smart, very watchable, funny, sexy and generally brilliant. Lots of constantly developing characters and long-term writing. I do feel they let it slip starting from the finale of the penultimate season though, and that last year I didn't enjoy much at all. Probably a symptom of Joss Whedon splitting his time between so many different shows at that point, but at least Jane Espenson's episodes remained bright points.
Favorite TV series of this year:
Arrow
Beware the Batman
Futurama
Luther
Primeval: New World
Suits
Supernatural
The Simpsons
Transformers: Prime
Most of the series listed above are either coming to an end or have been cancelled this year. It's a real shame as I was really forward to a second series of Primeval: New World. The CGI was amazing for a TV series.
Transformers: Prime was great whilst it lasted and while it still hasn't quite reached its end, it will be sad to see it go. Though I think Beware the Batman will be a suitable substitute. It's really starting to grow on me.
Suits is by far the best TV series I've ever seen. The third season has kicked off to a great start.
The Walking Dead ends up being my favorite show I follow, with the Syfy U.S. version of Being Human not too far behind and Dexter only a little bit after that.

I was at a friend's house a few weeks ago and she was watching the Buffy musical episode which I found funny. It wasn't bad but to hear everyone singing rather than kicking ass and taking names was different.

I can recommend Seasons 1-4, and highly, but anything past that will likely just be the effect of morbid curiousity due to cliffhanger season endings. Season 5's opening and Season 7 is the closest it gets back to quality.
I would definitely recommend that you check out House of Cards, Nightmare. ;)

Yeah, as somebody who's been following the show for so long and taken so much inspiration from it (well, the first four seasons), it's kind of devastating to see it go out on such a godawful season. :(
...and Season 6 I can say is all-around one of the worst seasons of television I've ever seen. Hell, I'd almost recommend just ending the show at Season 4, but that ending is such a brutal, well written, ruthless heartbreak that it's almost impossible not to follow up. Best I could say is to end the series after the first episode of Season 5, but really, that just seems not worth it when you've already payed full admission. I don't know though, I know some people aren't as jaded over it as I am. It's mostly just the writing that breaks it for me.
It lost a tremendous showrunner and writer after Season 4 and kinda died afterward, but most people that aren't aware don't even notice, which is why the show has gotten to eight seasons. Ask around, I'm sure there are others not as critical of the writing and what the show has/should have been. And by others, I mean smart people; I know SpaceMarines isn't as bothered by it. He liked Season 5 quite a bit, generous to Season 6, and enjoyed the good things about Season 7 as much as anyone else.
I used to watch this when I was younger:
If there's nothing else on, I'll watch Rescue Heroes if it's on.

Well, technically, that wasn't really the highlight of that scene and it was a pretty clean kill... and it took an entire gruelingly predictable and horridly paced season to get there, so... not worth it.

Meh, I liked it. I loved the bait-and-switch it pulled on the viewer with who the real villain was.
But... it made it clear from the very first episode. It wasn't well played at all, one of the most droningly predictable [non]twists in history.
I was hoping the reveal would play off of the fact that it had been incredibly obvious to the viewer.
Nope. Done completely straight.
Much groaning resulted.

Maybe to you it was.
I'm hardly in the minority on this.
Didn't say you were. All I mean is that it didn't bother me.
If a miniseries counts, its a tie between Band of Brothers or The Pacific
I really enjoyed the Stargate series, even Universe. Sanctuary was fun as well, just not on par.

I'm half way through S1 and I'm hooked. That pilot alone was incredible.
Have you met Richard yet?
I don't think so. :-\
Just wait. He's my favourite character in the show.
I was tempted to google him but I've already had part of the show spoiled for me. Don't need more spoilers lol.
It's good to go in fresh. I'm pretty sure you're gonna meet him soon, though.
I'm not sure whether I should keep Dexter on my list considering how lousy the final season was. I feel like saying Dexter seasons 1-5 were my favourite, but not the show as a whole.
The Prisoner (1967)
Barney Miller
Firefly
All in the Family
Decalogue
Sapphire and Steel
MASH
Shogun
Honeymooners
Doomwatch
Twilight Zone (late '50s)

I guess I can throw out the shows that aren't on anymore: The Prisoner (1967) and Highlander: The Series would rankreasonably high.
Got some new shows that I'm gettin psyched about Blacklist,Sleepy Hollow,The Originals.
It's not on TV, but I have to add Orange Is the New Black to my list. I watched the entire first season over the course of three days and I loved it.

I saw my mom watching this the other day. It looked pretty interesting.
It's pretty cool. Got a nice little concept behind it. A criminal is masquerading as the town sheriff.
That's what she told me. I would have watched it, but I had to return to school. I'm gonna try to check it out over the winter break.
I like TWD, and just starting the Breaking Bad series... I would try Game of Thrones at some point in my life :laugh: .... Im not much of a show fan, but I see there is more chance to find creativity than in USA regular movies..
My all time loved show, the Xfiles...
This one reminds me a little, and with just 2 chapters viewed it drag my attention
My favorite show is Ron Moore's version of Battlestar Galactica. Such a well written, directed and acted show. Brilliant.
I also really like:
Lost
Breaking Bad
Walking Dead
24 (early seasons)
Stargate Universe
Caprica
Terminator the Sarah Connor Chronicles
Still got to watch Game of THrones. Heard alot of great things about it.
Smallville
Ancient Aliens

Psych
Star Trek
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

I do! Except I only ever watched one episode which was about a gigantic, mutant, crocodile.
Scrubs
no doubt about it, best tv show, period
Sherlock

Cowboy BeBop
The Shield
The Unit
Terminator: SCC
Entourage

I also started getting into Falling Skies after blind buying it in a sale. Haven't picked up the second season though.
I think my top shows would be (in no particular order):
Game of Thrones (seen seasons 1 and 2)
Breaking Bad (finished season 3)
Lost (halfway through season 5 before scheduling conflicts with the people I was watching it with; hopefully summer fixes that)
Battlestar Galactica
The Walking Dead
Firefly
Others that I enjoy include:
Tremors
Supernatural (seasons 1-5, 6 was decent, 7 has been terrible)
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Yup yup. Once I wrap up with the stuff I'm currently watching I'll delve into one of those (probably Evangelion).
House of Cards is televised art, in my opinion. Kevin Spacey is brilliant as Frank Underwood. Be sure to check out the original House of Cards trilogy by the BBC.
Huh, I had no idea it was an adaptation. Thanks for the heads up.
No worries. I think you'd enjoy it.
I'm also adding Luther to my list. Idris Elba is awesome.
I watch a lot of tv-shows but recently this.... blew me away. Started watching it from the premiere. I highly recommend it for people who still havn't started watching this amazing work of art.

Im putting True detective in my top 5 of all series, such an amazing show, absolutely zero filler (think kill la kill without the Hectic pacing), full of allegories and visual motifs (right down my alley), tight writing, engaging believable dialogue, amazing acting, and it's probably the best shot tv show ever, it rivals the best films, if it doesn't win an Emmy I'll be pissed, also the awesome soundtrack by T Bone Burnet.
I don't rewatch TV series all that often, but I think I'll be sitting through this one again this weekend.

Underrated as f**k and brutal as hell.
I have the entire series on DVD, should get back on that.
I gotta say I preferred the first season. The paranormal elements were so subtle and underplayed. It gave you just barely enough info to know that something was at work, but whether it was an Angel, a Demon, or some natural element of reality beyond our understanding. It was really foreboding and mysterious, without creating a huge hole in the story and saying 'ooh, interpret this guys'.
I also really adore the main character. He is one of the most believable and emotionally balanced badasses I've seen in a show. These days all we get are big loud brutes like Commander Shepherd :/
While I have enjoyed the show from day one, I finally feel 100% comfortable listing it among my favorite television shows after tonight's episode.
Welcome to the list, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. 8)
lol NA
Maybe if you kept watching beyond episode 3 or 4 or whenever you gave up on it. :-*
NA lol
How about you watch what's left of AoS if NA watches some Hannibal?
I'd consider that deal.

NA lol
On par with the films :-*
If you don't like Marvel's movies then yeah, I totally understand now liking the show. If you enjoy the films and are invested in the universe, however, I really see no reason to
not give it a chance. Especially now.

I do plan to watch that over the summer, actually.

Guardians betta be gewd NA or i will loose it. :-\
It's filled to the brim with James Gunn, 50s sci-fi, and a talking raccoon. It's gonna be gewd. 8)
I know you don't even believe any of this.
I wouldn't call the Marvel movies pieces of art or anything, and they aren't the most original or creative movies or anything like that, but damn it they're insanely fun if you're into that kind of thing and I'm a sucker for the world building :P

Can appreciate the world building definitely, just the tone turns me off sometimes, there just more than a bit forgettable.

So it's good then? I heard mixed things about it which is why I never bothered with it.

See, I happen to love the tone of the movies. Not too serious, but fun and able to deal with some relevant themes in easily accessible ways. But if that style just doesn't do it for you then it's perfectly understandable that you're not going to get into the films.

I'd say give it a try and decide for yourself. The first few episodes aren't as strong as some of the more recent ones (and most people that hate it are people that gave up on the show after only a few episodes), but I found it to be really fun all along and the most recent episodes have been pretty damn great if you're into this kind of thing. The fallout from
Captain America: The Winter Soldier was dealt with extremely well in last night's episode.

I'm guessing Rong just has issues with anything that chooses to be light hearted and fun instead of bleak and nihilistic.
Nah, I definitely get Rong's point of view. I don't share it in this particular situation, but I understand it completely.

The people who talk about the show like they're blown away are the people that are invested in it. Don't expect to get blown away from the very beginning and I think you will come to enjoy it.
Yeah, what Shasvre said. It's definitely a slow-burner.
For what it's worth though, despite being fond of Game of Thrones, I've always been miffed that Thrones gained such massive popularity when concurrent (and in my opinion superior) The Borgias only ever found a modest audience. Same goes for Rome, actually, if we're talking about history/fantasy-blurring TV shows.

Figures. Thing is, the reason I never touched it in the first place was because it seems like a poor man's LotR. The entire time I watched those episodes, I was half-expecting a hobbit or wizard to pop up.
Sure, Game of Thrones has similar concepts I guess, with the fantasy worlds and shit, but the themes, characters, and plot complexity are so different it wouldn't be fair to compare the two.
Fair enough. I'm sure I'll get around to it...after I finish Mad Men.

Game of Thrones.
f**k the King indeed.
The more I hear people talking about it, the less interested I am. I watched the first two episodes of Season 1 and yeah, it was entertaining, but it didn't blow me away.
The people who talk about the show like they're blown away are the people that are invested in it. Don't expect to get blown away from the very beginning and I think you will come to enjoy it.
Figures. Thing is, the reason I never touched it in the first place was because it seems like a poor man's LotR. The entire time I watched those episodes, I was half-expecting a hobbit or wizard to pop up.

Parliament.
So for the last couple of weeks we've been watching The Prisoner (1967) in my film studies class, at first I thought it was the stupidest thing, but the more you watch the more you start to notice all these hidden messages. We re-watched it again from the beginning and now it's easily one of my favorite TV series.

High f**king five. My favorite episode was the one with the computer that answered any question. Some of the episodes really are dumb, though, like the random cowboy episode and the goofy spy story.

What about the one where 6 is played by a completely different actor? I had no idea it was supposed to be him. Best episode though is schizoid man.

That one... yeah. It got really sappy for a bit. Schizoid man was great. And the finale had an awesome use of the Beatles. "All you need is lo- *BLAM BLAM BLAM*
One thing about the ending though, they say something about having worked on 6s house while he was in the village, and in the end when the butler enters 6s apartment the door opens automatically like the houses in the village. So did they modify his house while he was gone or is he just trapped in some sort of global village?

Brilliant indeed!

I'm trying to get my hands on the first episode at the moment. Didn't expect the show to be any good, to be honest, but I keep hearing it is. :)
Both Freeman and Billy Bob are great. The two best characters on the show. There's this one scene where this guy is threating Billy Bob's character and Billy Bob pulls his pants down and takes a shit in front of him. :laugh:

"I am confused."
"It's okay, I am not."That line had me rolling. :laugh:
Currently watched/watching, not all time:
Fargo
Urusei Yatsura
Married... with Children
Wings
A.L.F.
An interesting mix, to say the least.
Can safely add Breaking Bad to my list. Shit, should have watched this when it began. Space Sweeper knew this show was a hit before it was a hit. Boy has an eye for good tv. Dexter & BSG are some of the shows he's pushed me to watch and both were f**king great.
As of now I have to say my favorite shows are Fargo, Penny Dreadful, Californication, Shameless, House of Lies, Game of Thrones, Fargo, Teen Wolf, Arrow, AoS, and Real Husbands of Hollywood.
I'm thinking of giving Penny Dreadful a go. Watched part of the first episode and haven't seen it since.

Are you watching
Ray Donovan? I was gonna ask you about it. Curious to know how it is.
Nope. Watched the first episode and haven't seen it since. Now that the first season is over and it's been renewed for a second season, would probably be a good time to give it a shot. :)

Has anyone heard of a British show called The Inbetweeners? I just discovered it on Netflix and it's quite funny.

inbetweeners is massive over here, i love it. the american version was terrible unfortunately, it would have been nice to see it take off like your version of the office
I'm not American. I saw the U.S. version of The Office once and thought it was meh. I'll always prefer the English version of a show over an American one.
Never seen the original Office before and I have no interest of doing so. Same with House of Cards.
Shame; they're both excellent.
Well, I'm adding Penny Dreadful to my list.

Roughnecks: The Starship Troopers Chronicles by far!
If only they actually finished it properly :(
Solid breath of fresh air for both franchises methinks.

I didn't feel like Season Two was like that. If anything it felt more dialed back, than Season One. Most of the time was the cat and mouse game between Hannibal and Will. And occasionally there would be a crazy to track down.

I know this thread hasn't been posted in for a few months, but I thought updating my favorite TV shows would be a decent first post in awhile.
Despite what I said of The Walking Dead being my favorite TV series now and of all time, that has changed. I have debated for quite a few years now if the Syfy/U.S. version of Being Human was in fact over TWD (The Walking Dead) for me. And now I can surely say it is. Believe me I still enjoy TWD, but to me starting in certain parts of Season 3-4 it has decreased more noticeably in it's writing, character development,a and the general quality of the show minus the effects. I preferred the older TWD where it was more character driven. It still is, but not the same as it was. Being Human to me was always far more consistent from season to season, and it never felt like it was bleeding the story dry where as the current TWD showrunners want TWD to go 12 or more seasons which I think is a bit much for any show. Not just that though, but Sam Witwer's "Aidan Waite" (main character of Being Human) is pretty much my favorite character of anything of all time. He was very compelling, and Sam Witwer played him so well, and the character has such a rich history and background. His development over the course of the show's four seasons alone were worth it to me. From "people" in his life like Bishop (whose connection to Aidan was so layered and interesting) to Rebecca to Mother and Suren to Suzanna and everything else it was such a well explored evolution/long development from having his normal life stripped away from him to becoming one of the most ruthless vampires possible, to finding a way to sort of regain his humanity and being seen as a very good man despite all his mistakes. Not only those things, but the character was always so relatable and likeable. Witwer had such a range in that role. That and the fact that I enjoyed the other leading characters of Josh, Sally, and Nora. Sally annoyed me a bit during my original viewing of the series, but I have warmed up to her and was glad that Nora became more and more important to the show. It was always so easy to feel bad for Josh, and his friendship with Aidan was so well written, and something to marvel at and pay attention to. All the leads had such a great chemistry on and off the screen together, and it was so obvious they loved working on the show despite a modest budget season to season. The show did something else that a lot of other shows and even movies have trouble doing, and that is mixing in comedy and serious drama/action. Being Human blended the believable comedic banter and awkward situations of our "roomates", while at the same time being able to deliver serious/dark situations, drama and action. It all felt natural and blended well.
Just overall I realized that my love for Being Human was always very close to TWD, and has now exceeded it.
My other favorite shows of all time (excluding Being Human and The Walking Dead obviously) include Dexter, Breaking Bad, among others. Some of my favorites that are still airing include Vikings, Game of Thrones, The Vampire Diaries, Penny Dreadful, and The Strain. I also loved NBC's Dracula, but it was cancelled after one season which of course was upsetting since had it gone on longer it would have gotten a fairly high spot on my all time list I'm sure.
My favorite TV series are the following:
The Sopranos
long time nothing
Breaking Bad
Shameless
The Office (and the German version: Stromberg)
Hannibal
True Detective
Dexter
There are more I like, but those are the ones I really dig.

I got into Parks and Rec a few weeks back and I'm on season five already. This show is hilarious.
Relatively new shows to my radar which I love...
Rick & Morty

Archer
Danger 5
Always Sunny In Philadelphia
I f**king love Archer. So much.

I began watching Flash and Arrow a month ago and I love them both. They're simply fantastic, even though it took me too long to get into em, haha. And! I am currently watching Constantine. While watching it, your avatar came to mind and it clicked for me, lol. It's not a bad show, but I can see why it didn't go past one season. There's nothing really for the viewer to latch on to like Arrow or Flash.

I've gotten into so many more TV shows since I was last really active on here, it's crazy and has pretty much become my life (my Youtube channel below as an example where I do all these reviews)! lol It's after 3am here so I'll spare most of the details, but some of my favorites of all time are Being Human (U.S), The Vampire Diaries, The Originals, Dexter, and The Walking Dead (Breaking Bad is kind of among them too, but is a bit more bumped out than the others, and will probably be passed by at this a couple of the ones I am about to mention). Other shows that I am currently enjoying as well that may even pass some previously mentioned are Penny Dreadful, The Strain, Game of Thrones, and The 100. All those shows are awesome and probably some I didn't mention, but to me when it comes to pure quality of every part of the show Penny Dreadful is the best of the best right now!
Re-watching Californication from the beginning. I absolutely adore this show
I got into The IT Crowd recently. Hilarious stuff!
Currently (in order):
1. The People versus OJ Simpson
2. Better Call Saul
3. The Real O'Neals
4. Modern Family
5. Jeopardy!
It used to be NBC's Hannibal...but then the show went to shit midway season two, and I'm not much into TV shows these days but I like a few.
House (on season five)
Hannibal (season one, at least)
Breaking Bad
Frasier
My Name is Earl
I've also been interested in checking out a show called Damages that came out a few years ago, namely because Tom Noonan is in it.
Just finished watching for the 2nd time..The Sarah Connor Chronicles...great show. Now watching for the first time Battlestar Galactica.
1. The Sarah Connor Chronicles
2. Battlestar Galactica
3. The War of the Worlds (1988-1990)
4. Banshee
5. The Strain
6. Oz
7. The Expanse?
It's only three episodes in, but Preacher is now one of my favorites.
Almost done with season six of House.
About to get started on season seven. :)
Going by the last year or so:
Better Call Saul
Jessica Jones
Game of Thrones

Fargo
Agents of SHIELD
Agent Carter
Ash vs Evil Dead
Guess who showed up in an episode of
Miami Vice I just watched!
1- Band of Brothers
2- Supernatural Season 1-5
3- Ash vs Evil Dead
One of my old all time favorite shows RETURNED the other night with a new lineup! Will Sasso and Nicole Sullivan guest starred in the return of MADtv! It was pretty good, a little new aged so it will take so getting used too. ;) For those curious, it is now on The CW on Tuesday night at 9pm (eastern US time). YAY!!!
Stranger Things is on the list now. 8)
hmm lets see...ill probably leave out some but here is the run down :)
American Dad
Bobs Burgers

1- Band of Brothers
2- Supernatural Season 1-5

Yeah I feel the same way about supernatural. First 5 seasons were amazing, but after that it all just went down hill.
As for my favorites right now I just watch a handful of shows like Lucifer, Daredevil, game of thrones, and black sails. I usually tend to watch the walking dead when I have absolutely nothing better to do but it's definitely not a favorite of mine.
That Hudson?!
Watched the first four or so episodes of season eight of House. It's not bad, but nowhere near as gripping as seasons one through six thus far.
I have forgotten how epic Ren & Stimpy is. I loved this in the 90s (as a kid) and still do today, even if on DVD. At least there are no commercials to slow down the greatness :D
Revisiting Generation Kill I forgot how good this show was
I have a long list of things I watch so I'll try to keep it down a little between live action & cartoons shows..
Transformers (G1 & Prime series)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ('89 & 2012 series)
The Real Ghostbusters (& Extreme GBs)
Inhumanoids
Batman the Animated Series
Justice League & Justice League Unlimited
Venture Bros
Archer
Batman '66
The Flash
My Name Is Earl
Xena Warrior Princess
Hercules Legendary Journeys
Ash vs Evil Dead
Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
I honestly could keep going. Basically almost any 80s/90s cartoon I will sit down & watch, 90s sitcoms, not much for newer shows though. The only newer shows I'm keeping up with are Ninja Turtles, The Flash & Ash vs Evil Dead. For everything else I'm just living in the past re-watching the old stuff.
2010's Flash over 90's Flash! Traitor :)
It really was insane how much great kids' programming there was in the '90s. Because I'm nuts for data, I made a count recently, and there were over 50 kids' shows during that time that I liked (compared to 34 adult shows today, in the golden age of TV). I remember feeling sorry for adults as a kid, because quality programming for them was so relatively scarce.
Babylon 5 is one of my all-time favorites, definitely. Londo and G'Kar made that show so f**king good, but it also helped how it had it excellent writing and a far-reaching plot that spanned whole seasons rather than just episodic content (not to say that's all bad, I just enjoy the other stuff more).
Farscape's another memorable science fiction series that I've come to love even more over the years.
That's about it. I enjoyed Star Trek stuff, I enjoyed even some of the Stargate shows, but none of them could compete with the aforementioned.

Who said it was the 90s Flash?? I don't even know if there was a 90s Flash show lol Don't care enough to look into it. I am watching the 2010 Flash. If you read the end of my post I did say the only
NEWER shows I'm watching is Ninja Turtles,
The Flash and Ash vs Evil Dead lol
The 2010s Flash is pretty good, too.
Black Mirror is on the list, if I haven't already added it. Shame that Netflix took down seasons one and two because they both had some real gems.
Better Call Saul
Westworld
Game of Thrones
The Walking Dead

The Exorcist show isn't very good, but it's so silly I take it as a guilty pleasure of sorts.
I don't really watch TV series but there is one I love: True Detective (season 1). I have to watch Twin Peaks again.

Game of Thrones, Westworld, Better Call Saul are 3 of my favorite shows! Westworld was by far the best new show of last year. Since you enjoy BCS, I'm assuming you've seen Breaking Bad?
Walking Dead has its ups and downs but Ive lost hope after a horrid 7a
True Detective S1, Fargo S1, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Black Sails, and Game Of Thrones.
Homeland's first four seasons were great. It's barely watchable now.
Quote from: Alionic on Mar 08, 2017, 06:18:17 AMHomeland's first four seasons were great. It's barely watchable now.
That's my big issue with a lot of American shows, they start out great but then they just keep dragging them on and on and on until they turn to crap.
They're apparently writing Homeland with an end in sight now, next year's season will be the last. Completely agreed though, American networks need to have more integrity in how they plan the long-term future of their shows.
There's a financial incentive, too - if a series goes stale, it spoils its long-term profitability. People are less likely to watch repeats or syndication, less likely to buy DVDs/Blurays, less likely to stay subscribed, and less likely to buy associated merchandise. It also damages the network's brand.
Homeland's a particularly good example of this effect, because it's gone from being one of the best shows on TV - namedropped by President Obama - through to losing its purpose but maintaining quality, then in the last year or two to, as Alionic says, being barely watchable.

I hope they end it sooner rather than later. One of the plot points in season 6 depicts

Alex Jones working for the CIA
in the most ham-fisted away imaginable. They've abandoned the cat-and-mouse games between the CIA and terrorists that made the first four seasons so great in favor of hyper-partisan commentary. It's no wonder why so many people switched over to The Americans on FX instead.

Line of Duty - don't know how I managed to miss this one. Praise be to Netflix!
I wanted to like Altered Carbon (I really rate Purefoy) but it was (in my view) bollocks. I think the lead is a charisma vacuum - I don't care about him or what he does, hence, I don't care about the show.
It looked nice though, but I only got an ep and a half into it before I gave up.
My favourite tv shows are:
Arrow
DC Legend's of Tomorrow
Mountain Monsters
Stranger Things
Star Wars Rebels
... I don't watch much tv, but I'm probably forgetting something
Farscape
Stargate
Red Dwarf
the orville, I quite liked that this year.
Star wars clone wars (I tried to get into rebels but most of the main cast outside kanan and hero annoy me usually).
Star trek because of course
theres a bunch of others and tons on my to watch list but thats all I can think up at the moment.
My favourite tv series is probably Batman from 1966 as I have the blu-ray set and watched every episode.
Boris Karloff's Thriller
Sons of Anarchy
Breaking Bad
The Strain
Vikings
The Andy Griffith Show
Gunsmoke
MASH
Law And Order - the original show
Dragnet

Many, many more, and always growing.

This was broadcast on Friday nights (back in the day :D) I used to get soooo scared watching this...but I was too afraid to turn it off. So it was like it had control of the TV. Way scarier than Twilight Zone IMO.

Hannibal was fantastic. But season 3 just felt rushed. I know it was necessary though, but God what a great show it was overall.
S3's Finale made up for it for me.
Still amazes me even now how well it captured the idea of us, like Will Graham seeing the grotesque so artistically. Eat the rude.
Anyone remember "Tour of Duty" - it was around in the late 80s - basically "Platoon" but on TV. It was ace... trivia, it featured a pre-Batman Kevin Conroy.
Lately been enjoying Better Call Saul a lot, almost as good as Breaking Bad.

It's so nice to have Mike back. But they need to hurry up and connect it to breaking bad. Some of the characters like Saul, and Gus (in particular) are starting to show their age. As much as I love the show, I hope they wrap it up with season 4, or at least season 5. Lest they should risk the show getting stale like the walking dead. I don't want to see that happen to any show in the "Badverse" as I'll call it.
I think they can get another season out of Better Call Saul. I'd imagine this upcoming season is where we finally see Saul sever ties with Kim. I hope the finale ends with that knock on the door from Walt and Jesse, followed by his kidnapping. :D

Funny, I picked up the first series of that on DVD a few years back... Thinking about it, I'm not sure I ever watched it.
Vince Gilligan has said the show could eventually run parallel to Breaking Bad, and even go beyond it. I haven't watched since mid season two, though.
That's so bizarre to me, I thought Breaking Bad in part was so phenomenal because whether Walter got caught or died due to cancer, you knew the whole thing was a ticking time bomb- that this story had an endpoint and the tension was always heightened because of that.
It's not to say you can't do something different with the same creative team in another series, but I've never been keen on those that don't end.
Better Call Saul doesn't have that same feeling in regard to anyone being caught, but they introduced characters like Jimmy's brother, a love interest, and a few other interesting characters whom we know do not appear in Breaking Bad so it's sort of a ticking time bomb until we see what happens to them. How Jimmy ruins his relationships with them or how some of these characters most likely die.

There's the conundrum. Eventually (and I'd argue already) Saul is going to look noticeably older than he did back when Walter first met him. To have him and other characters who have noticeably aged running parallel to breaking bad would be weird. Mike is the only one who seems to be holding his ground against father time.
I'd be all for a post Walter storyline. Seeing saul get back with Kim, or most likely wind up getting arrested and making it on the inside by offering his legal counsel to the other inmates would be a good way to end that.

I remember I loved it at the time - I don't know if it would hold up today, though. If you get round to watching it, let me know.
Better Call Saul is phenomenal and even better than Breaking Bad.
Crazy talk.
I got about two and a half seasons into Breaking Bad. Didn't really get what all the fuss was about - it was good, but hardly the best thing I've ever seen. Although I'll admit I was just starting to get a little more into it when my TV recorder died and I lost the rest of the show :laugh:
^ You missed soooo much awesome stuff! The middle is just insane.
Speaking of, started rewatching Season 1 on Sunday, forgot how humane Walt was and how stupid Jesse was.
"Why should I buy two plastic tubs when I got a full bathtub?" *Floor disintegrates* :laugh:
Breaking Bad is a bit like 90s Trek in that it doesn't get great until Season 3. You still have slog through dull at best Skyler subplots, but Walt/Saul/Mike/Gus are all amazing.
You do have to stick with it. It's only when Walt truly changes into Hisenberg, that things really take off. I'll admit it's not the greatest show in the history of mankind (which it's made out to be often times) but it's a good one. Cranston did a darn find job of making Walt and all the stuff he did seem legit.
I couldn't stand it when I first saw it, but I hung in there and it paid off. Even though it's not something I'd watch every year, I can honestly say it's definitely a ride worth taking.
My favorite.
Ironically, first place I ever saw Cranston;
They need to wrap up Saul in a season or two, and would be great if they actually went into the future territory that they have been teasing with black and white scenes (Jesse cameo?).
Jesse in the main timeline, fine. But hard no on Jesse in the future b&w timeline. Having Jesse in the future means he's in some sort of trouble, and that would undermine his ending in BrBa.
Best use of the future timeline would be "Gene" creeping on Kim and trying to win her back after all of his shit that will almost certainly drive her away (since we know he's in Omaha and she's originally from that area).
Also it would contradict the fact that Jesse drove off like a madman and ended up in the Need for Speed movie.

Agrees..when I first started the series I thought whats all the fuss about? It got so good with so many unexpected twists. I was sorry it ended.
Still waiting for David Milch to get the last installment of "Deadwood" he mentioned in the commentary/feature he talked about that would tie up the "Trixie / Star/Swearengen story.
BrBa is ace from episode one, one of television's best series ever.
But BCS is better!
Seeing Jimmy, excuse me, Saul for the first episode he debuted in Season 2 was so greasy and hilarious. He may be my second favorite character besides Gustavo Fring.
Just a reminder that Rome is badass:
Any love for Miami Vice? Been planning to rewatch some episodes.
One of my all-time favourite shows.
I'll be the first to admit some of the episodes were complete shite, but when it was good, it was absolutely bloody amazing.
Sharp Objects on HBO has been fantastic. It's very slow but the acting and cinematography are fantastic. Sometimes the editing can be a bit jarring though especially this last episode towards the last few minutes.
Yellowstone on Paramount Network is getting better for sure. Some of the main characters are not as fun to watch (Kelly Reilly's character is getting ridiculous) but Costner and Wes Bentley are doing great week. Luke Grimes and Kelly Asbille are impressing me. I love Taylor Sheridan and I'm glad it was renewed for season 2.
Caught the first 3 episodes of Castle Rock on Hulu and I am very intrigued. Nothing has happened that has blown me away yet but I love the nods to other King works and the acting is great. Andre Holland and Terry O'Quinn are doing great work. Sissy Spacek's character is a bit jarring, sometimes she has dementia and sometimes she's just an old lady who forgets a thing or two. Not sure what's going on there.
This year I cut off a ton of shows that I just wasn't getting into anymore. Preacher and Legion lost me completely and I feel much better watching TV that I truly enjoy and don't feel like it's a chore to get through each week.
Preacher has been great this season, IMO.
Nothing it's done has made me think it isn't well made or well acted. I just lost interest. Love Dominic Cooper though.
Preacher is one of my favorite comics ever. The first season was enjoyable but the second season lost my interest. They were promising a road trip like season but actually sat in a dirty apartment for 9 episodes. It is just too different from the comic.

It is a number one of mine and Don Johnson's character is still the coolest one of any characters ever. Too bad Universal Studios botched the job with Blu Ray material and provided it this way to US and European publishers.
Number two of my favourite TV Shows is taken by Robin of Sherwood (1984-1986) broadcasted in US as Robin Hood.

Yeah, DJ was a boss in that show. Even in the slightly silly plot arc where he gets amnesia and actually becomes a drug dealer, his performance as a villain was so freaking awesome he completely sold it to me.
Was the from the season that had aliens in it? ;D BTW, I've not seen a lot of Vice, but I own the first season on DVD.
Lol it started with the final episode of that season and continued over the first few of the last. As dumb as it is on paper, it turned out to be really well done.
That one with the alien (played by James Brown!) would be what I was referring to when I said "I'll be the first to admit some of the episodes were complete shite" :P

Watching Narcos and El Chapo lately...I usually don't watch crime shows but damn these 2 are well acted and filmed....very addictive shows.
Watching Fauda with my wife, and we both love it. One of the best series I've ever seen. Very intense.

BoJack Horseman, just ended season 4. It felt a bit messy compared to the first three but still delivered some clever ideas imo. I enjoyed the more light-hearted approach this time. Can't wait to watch season 5.
Not sure I'd call it light-hearted, but the episodes exploring Beatrice Horseman's earlier life are some of the show's absolute best points in my opinion. Time's Arrow in particular is heartbreaking.
I agree! Was really interesting to see the effects of different kinds of abuse, not just the physical kind. And I mean light-hearted as in comparison to season 3, which was darker, at least how I remember it. Not sure when I'll get by to watching season 5 though, I tend to binge the entire season in one sitting when I start :D
Batman TAS.
I would add Chernobyl from recent stuff as well.
Scrubs and My name is Earl
So many great ones in the past, but my current favorites are God Friended Me and Seal Team.
Well I can tell you all what is my LEAST favourite TV series.
Buffy?
Mad Men is really surprising me.
Some good writing on this show.
Dark's superb.
Boardwalk Empire did not disappoint. I was a big fan of the Walking Dead, but i lost interest come season 9. Right now my favorite shows are the Outer Limits and SG-1.
Stephen King's The Outsider was fantastic, until the shaky last episode. Still a high recommendation though.
I'm enjoying The Dark Crystal: Age of resistance. I'm a fan of Jim Henson's original film and use of puppets.

I've been watching the first two seasons of True Detective.
Season 1 was excellent, as per the reviews. Not really much I can add to what's already been said.
But the big surprise for me was season 2. I expected it to be naff given how much criticism it got, but I wound up loving it. There's no denying it's not on the same level as the first, and it did take perhaps a bit too long to get going, but the final few episodes were absolutely fantastic and I f**king loved the ending.
I'm excited for season 3 but it's not on Sky yet.
Frasier. I've been wanting to watch it again. One of the best Sitcoms IMO

Space: Above and Beyond was really underrated imo. If only it had found its audience, it could've been up there with The X-Files (incidentally, two of The X-Files writers, Glen Morgan and James Wong, created it).
Currently watching Dark, and what a f**king show ! I'am 3 episodes in and I'm addicted :o

S3 and s4 kind of a letdown so far. Its like a different set of writers tackles it. I feel like John stalled out. Only on epi1 of S4
I thought season 2 was by far the best. Season 1 suffered a bit from the fact I didn't think the stuff going on with the main characters wast anything like as interesting as the stuff going on around them. 3 and for 4 were good but like I said, the ending (without spoiling it) was a real let-down.

did the show get a premature end? 3 looks like it kind of went off the rails with a change in executive producer. Joe Blake, Tagoshi and Good John Smith just didn't seem to fit well in how they were dealt with. It was like they were trimming characters and rushing to do it. As for the actual end scenes, I would have preferred John Smith (Inspecto Kido also) come to his senses since we were teased for so long. He actually did I suppose, he just never took a step to do it until that last moment when he pulled that trigger. When he said "I don't know how." when Helen was grilling him about stopping everything, that was powerful to me. I think Smith needed to die clearly, but I think he knew if he pulled that trigger it was what would stop it. He knew he didn't have the courage or whatever to call it all off, but he had a man behind him that would. Helen was my favorite character by far. As for the people coming from other worlds, that was odd. Why would they all of the sudden be pouring in. Men, women and children alike? It didn't make sense unless the anomaly was somehow pulling people through. I guess my head canon is that everyone that was wronged from the moment the Nazis and Japanese started their murderous rampages in the 1930s was being brought back from the afterlife to get another chance at life. I know that isn't the theme of the portals, but they didn't really give much idea of what was happening so whatever. Its a good bad ending I suppose. I wish we had another season of development at least.

I get the impression there was a message in the ending, the show just did absolutely nothing to tell you what it was.
It felt more like a cliffhanger setup for a subsequent season than a conclusion to the show. It didn't wrap anything up. It didn't even end with an interesting question. It just threw a total curve ball at you and then stopped.
It's a shame because, as you say, there was some fantastic stuff in the final season. But when I found out partway through watching it that season 4 was going to be the last, I immediately started worrying the end was going to be bullshit, and it was.
I'm on season 4 of Vikings after needing a binge fix once I finished The Man in the High Castle. There is quite a bit of character depth. It's great overall. I have a few quibbles with how a character was "released" but whatever.

X-Files, 24 and the Walking Dead for me, at least as far as non animated series' go. Unfortunately, as is often the case, they all went on too long and suffered a drop off in quality as a result, although I'm still enjoying TWD a lot more than many seem to be. The Two Fathers/One Son two parter was the ending of the X-Files in my head canon, the show (especially the Mythology stuff) took a steep drop off after that. At its best though, no other show has gotten me as pumped as that did.

Yes, even the finale, which I thought was phenomenal.
You seem to like polarizing endings, ala Battlestar Galactica / LOST. 🤔 I'm not saying it's bad thing, btw. Actually, I like them too. :laugh:

Aye! and I still have a hard time interpreting that ending, but it is genuinely creepy and somewhat sad... :-X
Spoiler
Despite Cooper's efforts to change the past and save Laura, the horrors are still there haunting her when she's Carrie. She cannot be happy, regardless of the alternate universe in which she is living. :-[
I think you are very much on the money there.
Spoiler
Laura was created as this force of goodness, as seen in Part 8 - and I know some people interpret her scream and the house (of evil) going dark as her vanquishing that evil - but to me, I see the horrific opposite. I see Judy and her presence in the house... that terrible, terrifying f**king house... winning in that moment. Trapping Cooper and Laura (or Richard and Carrie, if you will) in this new pocket reality where Laura was supposed to finally triumph over that evil that had haunted her for so long but was ultimately still unable to do so.

Exactly, especially about
Spoiler
the house. This cursed place is like a tulpa, something like a sentient negative thought endowed with a will of its own, either that or even Judy herself!
Actually IIRC, this place tricked Sarah Palmer's mind with nightmarish visions. Also, maybe Judy was that moth-like frog who possessed her as a child. Now she's in that house lurking to possess Carrie too.

It's easily up there with the very best (
The Wire, Deadwood etc). Last Episode is probably my single favourite TV piece of all time tho (unanimated that is).
Oh and?

I'm interested, what's your favorite season you guys ?

I vaguely remember a drop in quality after the Syndicate got torched by those Rebel Aliens around Mid Season 6 (?).
And since the show takes some time to reach quality peak it's either 4 or 5 for me I think. That's definitely where the mythology episodes are best imo.
Aaaaaand since 'Home' is in 4, I say 4 it is. ;D

I think the first 2 seasons were exceptional as episodic events. That said the story arc really kicked in (for me) from season 3 onwards.
I can't put a definitive `fav season' on it to be honest.
Ok ! It was very hard to chose one, and it was almost a tie with 4 and 5 also. I also noticed the "lighter" tone of some episodes really became more frequent from season 3 onward.

That two parter was awesome, and is basically my stopping off point for the series. They lost their way with the mythology after that, and

On the fence about watching this one again, I'm worried it won't have the same effect after knowing all of the reveals. Epic show though!

I still recommend you do, emotional rollercoaster brought on high levels of intensity by top notch acting and incredible music. Trust me, that never gets old.

Spoiler
Still got to watch:
Fargo Season 2, Season 3, Season 4,
True Detective Season 1, Raised By Wolves, The Wire.
True Detective S1 and The Wire are absolute fire, I strongly recommend it.
The Last Dance - just watched it again for the second time. Goddamn Michael Jordan is a mentality juggernaut. With that being said I fell in love with the whole Bulls team from this era, what a team of elite athletes.
The Staircase - So captivating. For those who have never seen it, it's a real life murder investigation spanning years.
Your Honor - recent binge for me. Questionable character motivations and inconsistencies aside, Bryan Cranston is fire and it's shot like a David Fincher series, which brings me on to....
Mindhunter - a proper slow burn but it really draws you in. Brilliantly cast and acted.
Camp Cretaceous - I'm astonished this was as sharp as it was. The I.P is totally my thing but I would usually pass up on an animated "kids" show, but this has been largely very good for the three seasons. The teens are likeable and dinosaurs are perpetually cool.
The Exorcist - Again, a bit like the entry above, I was surprised how good this was and season 2 rocked. Gives me hope Alien will translate well and ultimately, on a personal level, reinforces my opinion TV is the way to go.
Farscape - in the running for best sci-fi show.
Black Summer, f**king intense
Does it count if it was a series that did not air on TV, but was streaming?
If so my favorite right now is Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous.
Altered Carbon
Sense8
The Man in the High Castle
Penny Dreadful
Black Sails
Banshee
Game of Thrones in spite of itself
Ash vs Evil Dead
Hannibal
The Terror
Operation Aliens
Pretty much every DC and Marvel 90's animated series.
Life on Mars (the original British one, not seen the American remake)
"I think we need to explore whether this attempted murder was a hate crime."
"What, as opposed to one of those I-really-really-like-you sort of murders?"
"He's got fingers in more pies than a leper on a cookery course."
"You're not the one who is going to have to knit himself a new arsehole after 25 years of aggressive male love in prison!"
"Anything happens to this motor, I'll come round your houses and stamp on all your toys!"
"If it was to do with football, he'd have serious injuries."
"He's dead. That's quite serious."
"Drugs, eh? What's the point? They make you forget, make you talk funny, make you see things that aren't there... My old grandma got all that for free when she had a stroke."
"Now - yesterday's shooting. The dealers are all so scared we're more likely to get Helen Keller to talk. The Paki in a coma's about as lively as Liberace's dick when he's looking at a naked woman. All in all this investigation's going at the speed of a spastic in a magnet factory."

Quote from: Omegamorph on Sep 05, 2022, 02:42:01 AMStar Trek '66
I always liked Star Trek. Not hardcore enough to call myself a "Trekkie", I haven't seen every single episode of all the different Trek TV series and I certainly don't walk around in a Federation uniform to work. But I always found the premise of Trek appealing. The show at its best is not about aliens with funny foreheads or Shatner's over-acting, but how the series reflect our contemporary world and its issues.
Sure, some of the episodes from TOS looking at it today is rather dated in concept and execution and clearly a product of its time. There is no getting around the fact that dreadful episodes like "Spock's Brain" and "Turnabout Intruder" are just plain bad, period. Even so, the series as whole with its uneven quality never fails to entertain me. And its best episodes like "Balance of Terror", "Space Seed", "Amok Time" and "City on the Edge of Forever" or "The Trouble with Tribbles" is timelessly entertaining and wonderful to watch to this day.
Just gonna dump a bunch of my favorite TV shows old and new:

General consensus seems to be the third season was a return to form after the derided second.
But what do I know, the second season is my personal favourite :laugh:

I actually liked the second season quite a lot. Vince Vaughn got some criticism, but I thought he was fine.
The second season had it's moments but was overall a big mess.
The second season felt very different, but thats not always a bad thing.
I welcome the return to form in the third one.
The second season took a bit too long to get going, but once it did, as I said, it wound up being comfortably my favourite of the three.
