Good TV Shows

Soulis6 · 10-30-2007, 11:04 PM

I've seen a bunch of threads recently about specific TV shows, so I thought I'd start one big one for all the good and sometimes unknown shows out there.
In no particular order here are some of my favorites:

Still On-Air:

The Office
Dexter
Lost
South Park
Battlestar Galatica
Venture Brothers
Samurai Jack

Cancelled or not airing anymore:

Rome
Arrested Development
Deadwood
Firefly
Band of Brothers
Star Wars: Clone Wars

Anyone have any to add or have any particularly strong opinions towards any of those?

*edit* - added band of brothers, firefly, samurai jack, star wars.

All CSI's
Criminal Minds
Dirty Job's

And thats all I can think of right now :P

But for cancelled,

Over There

Right now I DVR these shows so I can game in prime time, watch shows in day time.
In no order:
Cane
Pushing Daisys *
Journey Man
Heroes
Chuck *
LasVagas
Law & Order CI
Burn Notice *
Psych *
Lost
Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad
Reaper *
Raines

The ones with the * are funny as hell new shows that are very worth the watch. If you missed the 1st episode of them you can go to like NBC.com and watch it so you will understand what is going on and it will be even more funny.

Im gonna have to go with The Office. Hilarious comedy.

Other shows not mentioned here which I do watch...

- The Wire
- Entourage

Burn Notice - Summer run show about a spy who got burned(lost identity). Very awesome for real-life advice about how to lose a tail, how to break and enter and more. Includes Bruce Campbell of Army of Darkness fame.

The Shield - Gritty show about some LA cops. Start this at the beginning. Probably the best drama and the best cop show on TV. Last season starts April. (lol @ CSI's and L&O's)

The Unit - Elite squad of special operations guys. Has great parts on missions and boring parts involving army wives.

Top Gear - Even if you are not that into cars this show good. Best thing to come out of the UK since James Bond. Last episode they raced the Bugatti Veyron against a Eurofighter Typhoon.

No explanation needed for:
South Park, My Name is Earl, Colbert Report, Entourage, Mythbusters

Finished shows:
Rome, Band of Brothers, Firefly

Oh, forgot to add Law and Order and Without a Trace.

LOST, 4400, and Psych are all I really watch. Great shows. Oh and Southpark always rocks.

Battlestar Galactica - Love this show; if I had to choose between women and Battlestar Galactica, I would choose Battlestar Galactica.

Scrubs is another must-see, as are Mythbusters and the Daily Show/Colbert Report.

Stargate: SG1 used to be really good, but it was canceled.

Re-runs of MacGyver and Walker: Texas Ranger may not be good TV, but I've never seen shows so unintentionally funny. Honestly, who hasn't been round-house kicked by Chuck Norris?

Re-runs of Family Guy are great; it's too bad the new ones aren't usually as funny, although there are a few notable exceptions.
