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

God. You really need some Prozac.
I don't deny I need a life, never have ... sadly, I think you're going through some personal shit where your meds aren't working or you're not taking them.

I'm on an :acid: only diet.

Sometimes shows just don't jive with some people, it's all good, different strokes for different folks.

I wasn't believing the Party Down hype, but after the 5th episode I really starting digging it, glad I stayed with it, great show.

Now on to Breaking Bad.....

I'm on the 3rd episode, and it's ok and everything, but does it get better? Usually I give a series to the 4th or 5th episode to keep watching. Right now, I think it's good, but I'm really not digging as much as most viewers. I'm going to give it a few more episodes.

Good god your lucky to have no experience Breaking Bad yet. Stick with it no matter what. Shit is on point.

Episode 4 is actually the pivotal point IMO for Breaking Bad.

That whole Krazy-8 storyline sucked, "Should we or should we not kill the drug dealer tied up in the basement who's already taken us out to the desert to try and kill us once" saga was boring, but episode 4 with the whole bathtub mishap and the entrance of Tuco in episode 6, the show goes on an upward trend that still hasn't ended at the end of Season 4.

I've seen the first three episodes of Terriers and I really am enjoying what I am seeing. You should check this out when you get the chance, Lefty.

How is Sons of Anarchy going?

Keep going with Breaking Bad. It is the greatest show ever and each season is better than the last.

I'm into season 2 on Battlestar Galactica. Its pretty good so far.

 

[Leftwich]

Just finished Sons of Anarchy. Very great show and I'm glad I gave it a chance.

Going with what mgoblue said and I'm gonna start battlestar galactica.

 

[mgoblue2290]

Battlestar Galactica is pretty damn good. I'm about halfway through the last season now and I've got no idea how this show is going to finish.

Watched most of the pilot and the colonel guy who is balding is the voice of Bailey in Mass Effect.

 

[wingsfan77]

Just got "Game Of Thrones" season 1 on blu-ray for my birthday, starting that sometime today or tomorrow.

Also watched the first season of "Workaholics" and just downloaded season 2, really funny show.

The BBC adaption of Sherlock is only 6 episodes long and is fucking fantastic.

I thought so.

 

[Berowsk]

Check out Homeland. Amazing 1st season.

 

[Palooza]

Also check out BBC's "Luther"

LOL some of you have no patience.

"I watched the first 4 episodes of the Wire and it was boring so I stopped."

This is like saying, "I read the first chapter of The Great Gatsby and it was pointless and boring so I stopped."

You have to give a good show at least 3-6 episodes to develop before judging it. If you can't do that, then I don't know why you are even wasting your time trying out new shows.

Very rarely does a show other than a sitcom start off with great storylines right away.

My favorite recommendations if you haven't seen them yet:

The Wire
Game of Thrones
Breaking Bad
Dexter
Homeland

As far as comedies go:

It's Always Sunny (the most recent season finale was one of the funniest things I've ever seen)
Eastbound & Down
Workaholics

Has anyone here seen Deadwood? It's gotten good reviews but I haven't heard anyone talk about it really.

I read the entire book and it was pointless and boring, wish I would've stopped after the first chapter.

So didn't they just do what you said?

The Wire's pacing killed it for me. I know its a visual novel, and takes its time, but I don't want to watch a show that is paced like a book. If I did, I would just read a book.

if you can't sit through the Wire, you have no room to speak in television discussions. I'm just saying. What REALLY do you have to do with your time? Just watch the damn show.

I have fallen asleep twice while watching it. Just not my type of show I guess.

No surprise, obviously the book went right over your head.

Lol @ one of the best books of all time being pointless and boring.

Houston, you're just smarter than everyone else.
