New TV show to watch

[chris_uk]

OK mywife and I have just watched House from S01E01 up to the latest episodes on TV.

 

I now need another TV show to watch that is as good as House.

 

Any suggestions?

Breaking Bad

Breaking Bad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

House is never missed in our house(s). Do you get the Sherlock Holmes references?

 

I have just started watching Trauma, it makes Casualty look like the woodentops.

I found that when I watched The Shield it made The Bill look like a kids program. If you haven't watched The Shield you really should. Do you find yourself being over sarcastic when you have watched a few episodes of house?!

Another vote for Breaking Bad, really awesomely shot and put together.

 

Fringe is definitely worth a look - best scifi show I've seen in a long while (plus, mmmm, Anna Torv)

Seen season 1 of breaking bad, haven't had the chance to catchup on sesaon 2 yet - did really enjoy it.

 

I've been catching up on Lost recently. Just watched Seasons 1-5 back to back and most of season 6. Just waiting for the last few eps. to appear now

[Soulfish]

+1 for Fringe. Quite enjoy it .

 

Castle and The Mentalist are both quite entertaining. Nathan Fillion is great in Castle

[chris_uk]

Have already watched, Lost, Prison Break, Heroes, Big Bang Theory, How I met (got bored of it), FlashForward, Chuck, Scrubs, Spin City (Michael J Fox, amusing 20 minutes episodes.) The Unit

West Wing - Seasons 1-7.....just awesome

West Wing - Seasons 1-7.....just awesome

 

How could I forget The West Wing - one of my all time favourite TV shows! Went down hill a little in S5/6 but the end of S6 + S7 were great

[SYNACK]

I quite like "The Mentalist" and "Lie to Me" both of which have a similar vibe to House.

[Tcsltd]

My faves are Fringe, Lost, Lie to me, Bones, Greys anatomy and I have been getting into Cold Case recently.

[ahuxham]

Mentalist and Being Human

[Theblacksheep]

+1 fringe.

 

Deadwood & The Wire?

[Domino]

The Wire was pretty damn good.

 

seemed to fizzle out in places then completely tear your head off the next

[sparkeh]

Carnivale - possibly the best series ever made, but cut short in its prime, it will be missed.

Dollhouse is cracking too

[Rydra]

Personally, when I've caught up on latest TV series like Big Bang and House, I go back and watch something old-school.

 

I watched all of Stargate Atlantis last summer, I'm 2/3 of the way into Star Trek Voyager before House/Big Bang restarted up again.

 

If you haven't watched the old one-shot series of Firefly (the tv series that spawned the movie Serenity) Then you really must.

 

The wife recently introduced me to Babylon 5, which i've never ever watched before. I don't see the appeal of it myself yet, though I've been promised Season 2 onwards was much better. What I've seen of the first 3 episodes of S1, is poor acting, even worse Effects and visuals, and diabolical storylines.

Dexter

[Tcsltd]

ohhhh and Band of Brothers Pacific....very good!!!

[Soulfish]

My faves are Fringe, Lost, Lie to me, Bones, Greys anatomy and I have been getting into Cold Case recently.

 

Blah and I forgot Lie to me and Bones! I watch too much American TV

24...! Castle is good too - doesn't really compare to house though.

TrueBlood, Dexter, Bones, Flashforward, NCIS (for the daft story lines, seems like every week osama bin laden is trying to blow up a post box or something!), Stargate Universe ...

Another vote here for True Blood! Loving it!

[webman]

Of that ilk: Bones, Dexter, Fringe, FlashForward, and Leverage. There's also Warehouse 13 which started on Virgin but it feels a bit amateurish.

 

Comedy: Modern Family, 30 Rock

Edited April 29, 2010 by webman
added Leverage to the list.

Sea Patrol is a nice cheesy Oz production. About a patrol boat & the things they do. 4 series worth to watch. Apart from that everything that people have suggested.

 

Ohh and White Collar is quite interesting. Forger/scam artist pairs up with FBI.
