What's your favorite TV series? Old/new/whatever. Maybe not even your fav, but just some that you thoroughly enjoyed.

herei'llgofirst.

Currently watching Mad Men. Loving it! Into season 2, it's been really good so far. 50s culture was awesome.

Aside from that I was a serious fan of The Sopranos and LOST. I'm kind of a nerd and own all of the X-Files series. Fringe was good but I got pretty disinterested into season two. I somehow got way too into Desperate Housewives (Guilty pleasure, shut up). I've watched all of Bones on Netflix - super good, would recommend. Veeery anxiously awaiting Doctor Who to start back up, aaaand Futurama is always a good watch.

And you? WHATCHOO LIKE 2 WATCH?

Oh and once I'm done with Mad Men I'll be picking up Community because Donald Glover is my black lover.

Growing up it was X-Files. Dana Scully was hawt! Now I would say its Workaholics, that shit cracks me up.

Shannacore
08-25-2011, 12:50 PM
I've never even heard of Workaholics, what is it?

Yeah X-Files was stellar. As with most TV Series, the first seasons were the best. After like, season 5 or 6 it gets pretty 'meh'. I have that silly "I WANT TO BELIEVE" poster that Mulder owns hanging up in my apartment~ ~

Oh snap, how did I forget Arrested Development? Big, big fan of that one as well.

You'd think since I live in Albuquerque I'd be a Breaking Bad fan, I somehow have not kept up with it past season one though. Maybe someday ~

Just started madmen too, me and my sexy girl roommate watch it together and I always end up really turned on cuz she usually doesn't wear pants when we watch it. I guess I got off topic there a bit.
Also spaced is a great brit show by Simon peg if u haven't seen it, only 2 short seasons tho.

Other than that many shows are great from HBO: Deadwood, Rome, The coming of Winter, etc.

Also, game of thrones was pretty awesome, they pretty much ripped the first season straight off the pages of the book. Looking forward to season two. I am 100 pages from finishing the fourth book. So looking forward to 'A dance With Dragons' just bought it yesterday.

Very nice. I'm just about 3/4 of the way through book one. Its crazy how similar the show was. Can't decide if I want to read ahead, the pacing of the show was so good. I'll probably break down and read ahead.

I have a big TV with all of the channels that I think I actually use about once a month. I don't have time. When you work in the game industry you just don't get a bunch of free time on the weekdays. And I kinda prefer watching movies anyway if I'm going to watch anything.

Have you watched any of the "Supernatural" series? They are entertaining. It has jumped the shark as of late. The last two seasons have been sub par compared to the one prior...course once you defeat Satan and the arch-angel Micheal, what's next?

Also, the Serenity series is pretty good too IMO.

Season 3 of Breaking Bad puts every non-comedy show I've seen to shame.

I had a hard time finishing the first episode of mad men, let alone the next 3. Couldn't handle any more than that.\

Anyone still following Supernatural? I dropped it somewhere in Season 6, but I heard it got better by the end of the season. Thinking I should start it up again.

The IT Crowd and The Mighty Boosh are good, but Mighty Boosh can be pretty hit or miss, I love Richard Ayoade, and he appears in both series. Flight Of The Conchords, Scrubs, HIMYM, Futurama. There's more shows I could name in Comedy but I won't. I'm currently making my way through a 2005 Comedy Central series called "Stella" which is pretty random but Hilarious.

Of course there's also the standards; LOST, Firefly, Game of Thrones. But I'm also watching The Killing, and the new BBC "Sherlock". And on top of that lots of Anime, currently making our way through FMA: Brotherhood, which is awesome.

I really enjoyed Firefly as well as Serenity... mostly I liked Serenity since I enjoy watching Summer Glau <3 Unfortunately she's been in some recent stinkers such as Dollhouse and SCC.

I also miss BSG, SG1, and SGU.

Currently I am enjoying:


Walking Dead
Boardwalk Empire
Fringe

Also, I can't wait until Game of Thrones comes back :/
Finally, a recent guilty pleasure of mine has been Harry's Law. I've liked Kathy Bates since Misery and The Waterboy, so I checked this show out and got hooked.
