Title: Television Shows
Post by: MaleMaldives on March 31, 2011, 07:28:56 AM
Anything about TV. Whats your favorite show/series? Whats new that's good? Talk about aspects of current running shows (I would bash Lost if it was still running, but I think the disappoint of that show has passed already).

Death Note is my all time favorite show. Since watching it all other shows now seem worse because they can't live up to my expectation of what Death Note was.

My favorite show currently running now is Modern Family. I have a spanish mother and white father so I can easily relate a third of the jokes.
House is pretty interesting, but I think it is starting to jump the shark.

The Simpsons.

Also, people on IRC know about my recent discovery of this anime named after a cleaning solution. Clorox? Lysol? Bleach? I forgot. But there are musicals too and they're fun.

Still watching back-issues of Scrubs and King of the Hill. Flashpoint is an interesting diversion, as well as NCIS. Of course, I have no idea how old some of these are because we get back-dated stuff :)

UK TV is appauling. Even the news and political shows are so dumbed down now they are pointless. There is the occasional decent documentary but noting really good entertainment-wise for  while so I tend to cherrypick on DVD.

Some decent topical comedy shows, though; Russel Howard's Good News, Mock The Week, Have I Got News For You and the 10 o'clock show.

Best of the UK; Red Dwarf, Yes Minister/Yes Prime Minister, Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, Doctor Who (any year), Mighty Boosh, Father Ted, Black Books, IT Crowd, Blackadder

From the U.S: Battlestar Galactica, Babylon 5, Simpsons, Futurama, Millenium, Scrubs
