Recommend me a tv series to watch (new or old)

An Idiot Abroad is a fun show, but I imagine it would be tough to appreciate without prior knowledge of Karl Pilkington.

I can't get enough of that trio. Merchant, Gervais, Pilkington. The one thing I haven't seen/heard all of is their podcast/animation stuff.

Terriers

Why FX, why?!

Listen to the podcast before you watch the animations. It's way more fun using your imagination.

Hey bro, DVD Quality is just as good as Blu Ray.

Stop watching 27-inch black and white TVs, bro. :D
I notice you're still paying $400 a year to watch NFL Sunday Ticket on your damn PS3 on that TV, so I understand.

PALOOZA!

Tellin' ya..

[Palooza]

Sorry, Lefty, didn't see you finished GoT.

I haven't seen Terriers, so I can't speak on that. One season seems like it would be totally unfulfilling, but that's on you. Same boat on Jericho and BSG. Never seen either, no interest in either. I've seen the Portlandia skit about Battlestar Galatica and how addictive it is, so if that's your cup of tea I'd put it in your queue.

If you're trying to blow through as many shows as possible, I'd say stick with the newer shows like Homeland or Boss.

However, if you want GoT-quality television, I'd go with Boardwalk Empire. Only 26 episodes to catch up on and you can move on to some of the aforementioned shows quickly or something else awesome like Sons of Anarchy (even though season 3 is TRASH up until the finale).

I am about to start Justified, which I'd recommend based solely on everything I've heard on the internetz about its awesomeness.

Cliff Notes -
Boardwalk Empire.

Maybe i should have said I've already seen all of Boardwalk already.

That's good, I'm glad you're ahead of the game. Go with Sons of Anarchy. Tons of action, tons of drama, tons of badassery. But, like I said, the 3rd season is pretty awful. After you get through that you can go with a quick series like Homeland or Boss.

[Houston]

I've started using Palooza's short series first method, works wonders.

I never had any interest in this show but since you say its so good i'll watch it.

That's what Breaking Bad and the Wire were like for me.

[BrntO4Life]

Watch Terriers, Palooza. One season, so it's easily digestable and the storyline stands alone. It gets the closure it needs and then the series is done.

[Youk]

I do like the short series first method, but I just hate reaching the end of a show so quickly and having to wait so long for more. Just did it with homeland, and I'm used to watching all of The Wire. Instead of just watching the next season, now I have to wait. Fucking blows man!
