Good TV Shows? - Page 3

Deadwood and Carnivale were good too. Pretty much any HBO original series except John from Cincinnati is good.

my Fav:
Entourage, The Office (US), Weeds, Californication, Nip/Tuck

"There are two kinds of people in the world: those who love The Wire and those who haven't seen it. Yet."

SERIOUSLY THE WIRE IS THE BOMB!!!!!!!

Planet Earth
Blue Planet
Heroes
24
Lost
Dexter
Battlestar Galactica
PRICE IS RIGHT

The Shield is a well written story that should be watched from season 1 to 6 since its not your average crappy show wich no sequence (House etc) or randomly written as it advances pushing season after season (lost heroes).

So if you want to watch The Shield definitely watch it all, it improves and the best is the last season but it would suck if you dont watch it from the beginning.

baal, house advances =o its not at the same pace though

def agree about needing to see 1-6 otherwise u just wont understand shit probably

What season is when they blow up the Russian guy ? I think its the end of some season cuz they stopped running it on tv after that and it sucked cuz I was really hooked on it

Dexter
Battlestar Galactica
Supernatural

Fresh Prince
Survivor
Sandford and Son
CSI

friends

Not enough love for Heroes in this thread.
It's such an amazing show, it's insane.

Also the Sopranos is so key.

dexter 100%.

download band of brothers hbo miniseries about world war 2. it is absolutely amazing and one of my favorite tv/movie/etc ever.

Go watch some oldies.

Married with children
The new statesman / Bottom (or anything with Rik Mayall for that matter)

yeah i saw all the bands of brothers, theres a second miniseries coming out too which a friend of mine is starring in =D

How I Met Your Mother

must-watch

I think all the good ones have been named. Here's my list:

Dramas/Action:
1. Dexter-- I think I might even be owed some gratitude for introducing this to quite a few people.
2. House .. so much leveling going on constantly, most clever show on TV.
3. Lost..Don't ever watch it on TV, buy the whole series otherwise it'll drive you nuts with the cliffhangers at the end of every episode
4. 24 (how can you hate Jack Bauer?) -- Same thing as Lost though, you can't watch it on TV, you have to get the entire series.

Comedies:
1. CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM -- THERE IS NOT A SHOW EVER CREATED FUNNIER THAN THIS CRAP!! If you haven't seen it, there's 6 seasons and 10 episodes a season ... go get it, quick.
2. Entourage ... looks like HBO has decided they are going to make it their cornerstone since the Sopranos has completed, meaning we have lots of seasons to look forward to : )
3. The Office..duh

Can't be categorized:
Californication ... This could fit in as a drama, a comedy, a tragedy, dark humor .. i dunno how to describe it but the show is genius, David Duchovny plays such a G in it, looking very forward to season 2.

Weeds .. I used to watch this show w/ my girlfriend, it's gotten pretty lame, however, has grown on me a bit just because I've followed the characters and whatnot for like 2 seasons, plus I used to slang weight -- I'd have to say it's not very realistic in the sense of a show about drug dealing...at least from my experiences. Show that I think is the best representation of suburban drug dealing would have to be ................... i cant even think of one cuz none of them have really nailed it. The movie Alpha Dog came close just because there are so many retarded drug dealers and that movie definitely outlined one. Oh yeah, the movie Layer Cake. Most realistic movie with a background in drug dealing. Nothing else comes close.

LOL I remember in a scene in Dexter where Lila just goes up to some random kid on the street and buys roofies off of him ... there's no way that crap ever happens IRL. GL ever even finding roofies, if I had a lot of money, I would bet agaisnt anyone's ability to find them.

"THE A TEAM"!!!

but its not a "story" its just a series of episodes, kinda like CSI.. it advances to give some sense of continuity however it doesnt have any but a very weak story besides the episodes, which are actually decent at first then they get awfully repetitive, again kinda like CSI it started strong and interesting, then it got repetitive to finally evolve into retarded where they found a micro fiber 35km away that only shoes made in an italian island have... and all that shit to figure out the death one 1 random hobo... house evolved into that quite fast too.

The Shield is definitely above that kind of tv show.

Also;

Terminator: the Sarah Connor Chronicles

Quite amusing.

LEAUGE OF GENTLEMENT!! Very good english comedy much better than little britain or any of that.
