Show Recommendations

[xer0s]

I need something to tie me over until Dexter returns in September. Any suggestions?

[YourGrandpa]

Hoarders... Check it out.

[HM-PuFFNSTuFF]

The Wire if you haven't seen it. 5 seasons of quality.

[phantasmagoria]

Battlestar Galactica

[Transient]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - don't knock it, it's actually a very good show
Firefly - It only went for about a dozen episodes, but it's an awesome show worth watching multiple times
Farscape - quite possibly the best show ever made
Stargate: SG-1 - light-hearted and lots of action

[seremtan]

Fringe is pretty good. Dollhouse was watchable but S2 just finished though i'm sure you can backtrack it. If you really really REALLY have trouble filling the hours you could watch 24 Day 8 24 has jumped every shark in town, but that special blend of wooden characters, stupid dialogue, talking down to the audience (this i get - it *is* Fox after all), torture and the rather old fashioned assumption built into the whole thing that america still rules the world is an irresistable combination

[phantasmagoria]

If you haven't seen the Sopranos, you should.

[Don Carlos]

House - brilliant
East Bound & Down (short but ace)
The Inbetweeners - British and funny
Gavin & Stacey - Welsh and funny


Go go go

[Nightshade]

Sons of Anarchy
Rescue Me
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

[LawL]

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - don't knock it, it's actually a very good show

(no homo)

[bitWISE]

Farscape - quite possibly the best show ever made

I just started my fourth watching of the full series this week.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - don't knock it, it's actually a very good show
Firefly - It only went for about a dozen episodes, but it's an awesome show worth watching multiple times
Stargate: SG-1 - light-hearted and lots of action

buffy might be a little dated now (though the writing still holds up if you skip a few of the filler episodes), firefly is great and the dvd set can probably be found for cheap.
never saw SG-1, but friends watched it religiously.

[Transient]

Oh, Buffy's definitely dated; and it particularly shows in the special effects. But it doesn't matter since the writing is so compelling. Joss Whedon knows his shit.

[EtUL]

Trailer Park Boys for comedy gold and NS accents.

[+JuggerNaut+]

The Shield
Rescue Me
BSG
The Sopranos (who the fuck HASN'T watched it though)

[U4EA]

Has anyone seen John Adams? .. any good? I've got Rome and The Wire lined up after I finish Dexter.

[HM-PuFFNSTuFF]

The Wire is as good as The Sopranos.

[Scourge]

The Sopranos (who the fuck HASN'T watched it though)

Me, I watched one or two episodes and just couldn't get into it.

[AmIdYfReAk]

The Sopranos (who the fuck HASN'T watched it though)

Me, I watched one or two episodes and just couldn't get into it.

Weirdo.

Fag.

[Dark Metal]

That's obvious.

[Scourge]

Weirdo.

[menkent]

Has anyone seen John Adams? .. any good?

i liked it, but it's pretty dry... certainly compared to Rome.
oh, and i've never seen the sopranos.

[LBt1st]

No love for The Big Bang Theory?

-Bean

[MKJ]
