To recommend some shows that probably wouldn't get recommended otherwise, here are some short ones that were Too Good To Last as TV tropes says. My So Called Life, honestly it's one of the best TV dramas I've ever seen. Popular, this show was a great parody for its time, I'm not sure how it may have aged, but it was pretty funny during its run. A longer series I'd recommend would be Roswell, the first season is pretty nice Sci-Fi. Towards the end it starts to get a bit dodgy and eventually canceled to make room for Smallville.
Community. Show started on NBC and it is hilarious, stars the guy who used to host Talk Soup way back when.dj Facchiano said:I just finished watching season 5 of Dexter and now have nothing to watchsooooooooo I was hoping you fine gentlemen from the lands of escapistmagazine.com would be able to share your T.V wisdom with me. My favorite series have been prison break, dexter, and battle star galatica. I'm not a big fan of anime. THANK YOU GENTLEMEN.
Plus, I recently found the entire first season for $15 dollars at Best Buy. Not sure if that sale is still on, but it'd probably be one of the best investments you make.
I finished Season five in two days. I only stopped for eight hours of sleep and to go to a three hour class.0p3rati0n said:

My vote goes for The Shield. I'd also recommend The Sopranos, 24, The X Files, and the short but sweet BoomTown.
Oh, and if memory serves me, The Twilight Zone from the 80s wasn't too bad either.

The Wire. Probably the most well-written show I've ever seen. Sometimes it feels like you're watching a documentary instead of a scripted show. It's brilliant.
But whatever you do, DO NOT watch The Walking Dead. Just because it's got zombies, it's extremely overrated. The first 3 episodes were okay I guess. But then it gets really lame. Also, the acting is pretty weak, and they randomly kill off characters when there's nothing better to do (probably because AMC doesn't have the budget for a large cast). It was just a massive disappointment in the end.
Also, I was wondering why tosh.0 was still on the air, but I guess people apparently like it. That confuses the hell out of me. How is it any different than just watching random shit on youtube. Daniel Tosh is not funny.

Try Primeval or Castle. Both I love immensely!
Primeval is about anomalies in time in which prehistoric-futuristic come to the present and people must try and control/contain them. Hangs in the Sci-Fi genre and very good series.
Castle is about a writer who partners with a female detective to get inspiration for his books.
Did I mention Castle is
I should also mention Band of Brothers, sad and moving mini-series about Easy Company of the 101st Airbourne in WW2.

How is it that no one has mentioned Sons of Anarchy yet?! It is one of my alltime favorite shows and has some of the best writing I've seen. Watch it Now!
