List 2 of your most favourite TV serie's!
Mine would be NCIS and Prisonbreak although Two and A Half Men, Friends and Spin City would be pretty close
:D
-
Tough choice, since there's so many!
I like Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Scrubs the most I guess...
-
House and Heroes.
-
Veronica Mars and Heroes.
No seriously, Veronica Mars is awesome :D
-
Tough choice, since there's so many!
I like Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Scrubs the most I guess...
to bad they dont currently air here in holland but they are quite good yes
i also like lost myself
-
I think Ill cheat a bit.
Best tv-series ever Twin Peaks.
Best comedy series Friends.
Best sci-fi Farscape (Yes I know its filled with puppets but it was great!)
Best action series Alias.
Best currently running series Californication ( By far ).
I am currently following: Heroes,Californication,Dexter,Stargate atlantis,Tell me you love me and a few more I cant remember since they are on a season break :P .
-
I'd have to go with Heroes and Dexter. But, honourable mention to House, Battlestar Galactica and Twin Peaks.
Favourite comedy cartoon shows (u can't really put these in the same category as other shows) would be Futurama and South Park. Family Guy, American Dad and Simpsons in the runner up positions.
-
I utterly love Futurama and Southpark for funny shit. I don't "follow" them as such.
Heroes is my absolute favourite though as it just really fits my interests. I think I'd like to get into watching more series, but going through one/two seasons to get up to date with what's being released now just seems a bit overwhelming. Also, I know from experience that if you see a whole series of almost anything in one huge go, it becomes shit and boring, as you need a break every few episodes...
-
You are wrong :)
I can watch 10 seasons in a row and still want more :D
Did it with stargate sg1 saw first 9 seasons in a month or so :P
I constantly had an episode running on my secondary monitor while lvling ipal :)
-
Best sci-fi Farscape (Yes I know its filled with puppets but it was great!)
even though i never realy followed the serie that much the episodes i did see were abosutely awesome
and i also like futurama hope the new movie they are producing will be good
oh and then there is south park even though ive seen all the episodes of season 5-9 about a dozen times each i still laugh at the jokes in most of em there a couple i dont like for example the one where jimmy constantly has a erect penis is one of my least favorite though i did like the bit where jimmy asked cartman for advice on picking up girls
oh two and a half man are just absolutely awesome to
oh and then there is this older x-men cartoon which is one of the best in terms of voice acting
lets not forget about battlestar galactica (the new one) i quite like that one to why? well i think cause its not like most sci-fi where the actions in 1 episode never comes back and bite there asses in another episode
the best mini serie for me would be Band of Brothers without question
-
I spend too much time watching tv-series when I should be working, and I love WAY too many of them.
And I simply can't choose, so I'll just mention some of my favorite ones: Heroes, Battlestar Galactica, Veronica Mars (it IS awesome!), Dexter, Buffy (hey, it's a nostalgia thing, alright?) aaand so many others but my brain stopped working. :D
And for fear of being laughed at for the duration of 2007 AND 2008 I'm not even going to mention the girly shows I love and adore.
-
Hm, my favorite TV-serie ever must be The Simpsons, cant get enough of it. :P But I also watch alot of others, such as Two and a Half Men, Friends(Old ones, I think O_o), That 70's Show, King of Queens, and of course, Scrubs! Other than that I kinda watch whatevers on the Telly. :P Trying to get every Top Gear episode thats on TV. :D
-
Dexter, Heroes and I enjoy Lost too.
At the moment I'm watching Californication. Much nudity for a series but I just like the actor. It's Muller from x-files and that makes it decent enough. Too early for me to say if it's good or not yet though. I have a hard time sticking to a series and I usually have to watch a season in order to actually even like a series. :)
-
My top 2 favourites would be Heroes and The 4400.
And thank god there's comedy central, I just love all the shows on it. Except 'the vivian vile show', because it's just awfull.
-
Battlestar galactica and Veronica Mars. Finally someone knows Veronica mars and agrees it is really good. Weeds and Lost was good too but I never met with someone who watched Weeds and liked it.
-
To add. I really liked veronica mars picked it up after reading this thread and what do I find out.
It was cancelled....
-
Californication and Family Guy
then again... i have a Comedy Central addication..
-
Whose Line Is It Anyway? = win
-
2 and a half men
Californication
<3
-
One thing that always bothered me about series is that I can't be arsed and tied to TV on XY evening to watch them. Thats why I loved X-files, every episode is a story for it self and mainly unrelated to each other. There is a whole bunch of comedy series that are quite good and I can watch them over and over again: Only fools and horses, Dr. Freiser, Man behaving Badly, Alo alo and so on.
I must agree about Twin Peaks with you guys, it was one of my favs back in days. Its damn good really.
-
thats why sites like http://www.surfthechannel.com/ (http://www.surfthechannel.com/) are good you can watch episodes where you want and when you want to
-
My sig is an homage to Twin Peaks in case anyone missed that :P
-
www.tvokay.com
good site for watching stuff onlinezzz
b/
Im majorly addicted to Spin City atm. Really like it. Aswell as NCIS but i have seen everything now and its get boring after a couple of times.
Bomb.
-
Heroes, 2 1/2 men =WIN
-
To add. I really liked veronica mars picked it up after reading this thread and what do I find out.
It was cancelled....
Yeah, they made 3 seasons and were already planning the 4th one, but they cancelled it and Kirsten Bell (Veronica Mars in the show) is now playing in Heroes >:(
I'm watching too much stuff at the moment: NCIS, Criminal Minds, That 70's Show, Californication and some dutch shows (season breaks for Prison Break, Heroes & Lost at the moment)
One of the best parts from That 70's Show I've seen in a while, made me laugh real hard ;D
-
Hahahah, Win! XD
-
Why does noone mention Golden Girls..
...you damn kids are too young...
-
The best show ever is hands down Scrubs. Cant say i like House since its a copy of Scrubs.....
Second got to be KIngdom Hospital
-
House is a copy of Scrubs? It's completely different. The only thing remotely similar is the fact that they are both in hospitals :)
-
Dexter is made out of win!
I kinda reminds me of Death Note, main character being "evil" and such..
And it can be rather funny xD
-
hmm I should try watching kingdom hospital, its a remake of a danish awardwinning tvseries called "riget" = the kingdom. the nickname for denmarks biggest hospital in copenhagen.
The danish version was very good and quite weird and scary.
-
Lost!
And this 'Dirty Sexy Money' is looking quite enjoyable. GIEB HAWT GIRL FROM TEH OC PLX!
-
Veronica Mars and Heroes.
No seriously, Veronica Mars is awesome :D
./agreed
but tbh Would have to be Family guy and The big bang theory right now.
However to name some close contenders:
Skins S1 and some of S2
Shameless
Reaper
Simpsons ** Sometimes
Lost
and many many more.
-
Lost!
And this 'Dirty Sexy Money' is looking quite enjoyable. GIEB HAWT GIRL FROM TEH OC PLX!
Just saw this and yes I watched this by mistake and it is pretty sweet.
-
"The 4400" is my absolute favorite, second would be "Prison Break". Can't wait for Th 4400 season 5! Give now!
-
but tbh Would have to be Family guy and The big bang theory right now.
The Big Bang Theory is pure win! :D
-
Must admit before i started to watch Prison break and heroes (tnx to Dell <3) i didnt know what is feeling when u really cant w8 to see continue of shows so would say then:
Heroes & Prison Break
SAVE CHEARLEADER , SAVE THE WORLD !
-
Heroes! I just have to say again I LOVE IT. I love claire! <3 But seriously, give new episodes. September 15th ifi m not mistaking :o.
Wish i could bend time and space to see new episodes!
-
i must admit that my favorite Series is "weeds" its clever its funny its true... nuff said...
and also Arrested development
and last but not least! How I met your mother
-
Off centre = win
-
dutch television currently has reruns of a old show called newsradio which is one of the funniest shows i've seen in ages
-
House season 5 episode 4 is the best shit I've seen so far in my life.
-
Just wanted to remind you guys that a new bunch of series started a few weeks ago.
Fringe: pretty good, a weird comedy-ish x-files thingie, but very gory at times.
Sanctuary: pretty fail execution but an ok idea. Amanda Tapping is the main star of the show (Sam Carter from SG1). Sadly she is speaking "british" english now in an american show which seems very annoying when you have seen her speaking american english for 11 years.
Knight Rider: A new version of the old series with David Hasselhoff about a secret agent and his Gadget car with AI.
I know that some people like it, but I find it utterly retarded, the cast is so shit. With a proper director and "ok" actors I guess it could have been good, I think the idea is fun.
-
I totally agree with you there palmar. Knight Rider is total shit, the graphics, the cast, the new 'story', it's all shit.
I should take a look at Fringe though, looks quite entertaining.
I gave up on Prison Break, i'll wait for the end of the season, and download them all at the same time I geuss.
-
I know that we are both casuals, we both have priests and our avatars are a little bit similar. But I am not lolmar! :P
-
I'd have to say Stargate Atlantis. Not because of the quality of the show or the acting or anything, it just gets me sooo hooked!
Flight of the Conchords is the newest addition to my must-see series. BINARY SOLO! ONE ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ONE ONE ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ONE ONE ONE ONE ZERO ZERO ZERO ONE ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ZERO ONE! Sooo much pointless stuff, and soo much fun!
-
Heroes ftw, can't wait to watch S3. (I've yet to found a torrent to the newest episodes, and I dont like watching it on surfthechan, because the quality is shit. :P)
-
Piratebay? There are alot of 720p / 1080p versions on the net from heroes Kergash :p
-
I started downloading the series Friday Night Lights S1 when I was in Australia, quite enjoyed it.
I really liked Heroes S1, S2 was ok, haven't seen S3 yet, but its getting pretty bad reviews from what I have seen.
-
Heroes has become Dota -RDEM (with denying) imho.
But i like dota so... :P
-
Fringe was pretty good, yeah!
I watched Sanctuary, thought it was pretty shit. Turns out the whole show is done on a green screen... like... 99% of it.
One of the girls was cute though... But I watch so much shit already, I couldn't add it to the list.
-
Lol.
I really loved Rome, two seasons was too short... need more.
And I am a complete addict to Law & Order SVU. :)
I also watched the whole of OZ. Imba series.
-
The blonde girl in Sanctuary is Danish!
-
Danish and hot.
Mind you, the one from stargate is pretty hot, too. Too bad that she uses that silly British accent.
-
never been a big fan of series but i do download Entourage every monday :p
-
i have a tv at home. but i just use it when my friends want me to kick their ass on PES 2008 with inter milan.(fuzion is one of them) So no TV series 8)
i watch the Cartoon networks CLone Wars series when i got time. But it's hard to name it as a Tv serie right. You mention longer series.
-
I'd have to say my favourite tv Series is Prison Break closely followed by how i met your mother and NCIS
-
Prison Break...
AHaHAHAHAHAHA
It's finally concluding. This week I think... finally... that hour of my week returned to me... forever more.
Good episode of Fringe this week. Not quite X-Files, but probably the best sci-fi/mystery show since then.
-
I don't have a favourite since they all are different so Ill just mention the ones that I watch whenever they are out.
Heroes
Lost
Prison Break
The legend of the Seeker
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Cronicles
House
Chuck
Roommates
Scrubs
-
Best sifi series ever made (i totaly have to agree with Grax) is Farscape.
-
prison break season 1 = was great.
the rest of the seasons sucks..
watching heroes atm.
-
Legend of the Seeker is a bit meh... It's not brilliant, but the girl is hot :)
-
I 100% agree with Grax.
If your a sifi fan farscape is a must, and the best sifi serie ever made.
(Atleast imo :) )
-

Deja vu?!
-
for me its Space: Above and Beyond as top scifi series... but farscape, Firefly comes close seconds :)
babylon 5 is also a top contender
-
Aaaah, above and beyond... haven't seen that in ages!
-
Just for those fans of prison break who havent heared..its Continuing for a 5TH SEASON!!
-
love House MD at the moment.
nice idea grax, i really should get a 2nd monitor, would makethe leveling grind a piece of cake!
-
Hmm, I just watched the latest season of Prison Break (season 4). And I kind of liked it. Heard bad things about it, so I came in with a negative view on it, but it totally changed.
I'm watching; Heroes, House MD, Lost, Scrubs, Prison Break and a few Anime series atm.
Have to kill the time now, without playing WoW.
-
Well, Prison Break knew it was ending, so they started being a lot more brutal...
It moves a lot faster in S4, so that it can actually end!
Last 2 eps ... airing this week I think?
-
NCIS is awesome
if you like CSI, NCIS will be awesome!
-
just started with gossip girl ( i know i know, girlish stufff ) and its soooo sweet :3 <<xo xo gossip girl... you know u love me>>
-
I myself been watching a whole bunch of TV-Series, of all kinds. What I still enjoy, and love watching is..
- Two and a Half Men, The Simpsons (A bit childish, but awsome), Family Guy, Lost, Prison Break, My name is Earl.. and of course it's more, but that's the ones I usually enjoy watching.
- Jimmy.
-
Well I have to say that my favourite TV series has to be 'Dog the Bounty Hunter'. Yeah its cheesy I know, but like your illustrious leader I spent some time in America from Wyoming to the islands of Hawaii and I had the very great honour of meeting the Chapman family, and what you see on TV only scratches the surface - I've never been able to say that I've met truly good people before, but these are serious good people, so much so that they made me cry.
-
I don't think I've even HEARD of that show... What's it about? :)
-
Its about a guy 'Dog' Chapman and his family who are all bail bondsmen. The cameras follow them in their hunt for people skipping bail or court appearances etc. They're the strangest looking people, he looks like an all in wrestler and his wife looks like a little barbie doll with the BIGGEST boobs I've ever seen! Its must-see TV and I'm totally in love with them.
-
i used to watch Xena - Warrior Princess when I went to Uni. it's on around 1.30 am.
its bad in a pretty good way.
-
You know, I was reading my Guinness Book of Records...
Anyway, Baywatch was the BIGGEST TV SHOW OF ALL TIME. Apparently, at its peak, it had global syndication over 1.1 BILLION viewers. Insane, eh?

-
How is Prison Break the 'best series u've watched so far'... but it's not #1? :P
-
Ye gods, I hope you mean 'season 1, with the other three seasons scrubbed from my mind'.
-
How is Prison Break the 'best series u've watched so far'... but it's not #1? :P
Because it's finished? if it could contiune its #1. and delling how come u can say that mate?
-

-
well I can say ur right, but to an extent its not :)
-
and now you stopped making sense...
fucking idiot
-
sure :'(
-
prison break season 1 was awesome the rest was utter crap.
I agree that flash forward is quite awesome although im still catching up, im only at episode 5
-
the X-files, pure fucking awesomeness!
-
My favourite series:
- Battlestar Galactica 2003
- Firefly
- Futurama
Beside those 3, there are many series I enjoyed like: Dexter, Farscape, Supernatural, How I met your mother, Scrubs, Prison Break and Heroes up the 2nd season both, IT crowd,..
oh and last night i saw "FlashForward" pilot and its great, looking forward to the rest of season.
-
Farscape for the win!
-
prison break season 1 was awesome the rest was utter crap.
I agree that flash forward is quite awesome although im still catching up, im only at episode 5
i totally agree prison break season 1 was awesome, then it just went downhill ohh look you have to break out of another prison LAWL.
also watching flash forward, on about episode 14 atm, its okay nothing special tho
-
- Futurama
Definitely my favourite animated series. Maybe even my favourite series altogether tbh.
-
Doctor Who! I'd expect more of you brits to mention it...
Other series that I follow would be Fringe and Big Bang Theory. I occasionally watch South Park and Family Guy when friends remind me or a word goes around that an episode has been full of win.
-
This new season of Doctor Who has been exceptional so far. We'll see how they resolve this first two-parter :)
-
I hate to wait a whole week to see how an episode ends so I've actually not seen the latest one, waiting for the second part to release so I can watch both of them together! And yea, the new Doctor is doing great.
-
Dude, the new assistant...

If you're into psychiatry, organised crime or just crime stuff in general, I recommend The Sopranos.

-
You guys should all look up 'Treme' (pronounced Treh-may).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treme_(TV_series)
If you loved The Wire, you'll love Treme. I'm almost through the first season and it's just so FUN -- the dialogue, the characters, both as good as The Wire, but it's more FUN.
It also has a few actors from The Wire! (And some from other HBO shows, of course.)
And it's been renewed for a second season! Hooray.
-
Pillars of the Earth is a pretty cool show.
-
(http://freeonlinesmovies.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Breaking-Bad-Online1.jpg)
Superawesome. Semi-loser Joe Average chemistry teacher gets lung cancer and wants to secure some money for his family before dying. Thus, by chance he teams up with a former student of his (drug loser) and starts cooking & selling crystal meth. Then things turn bad. And worse.
Season one is pretty harsh, both violence and cancer wise. Season two has a little too many family issue episodes at the end. Season 3 rocks the boat. Don't bother watching the pointless "season 0 webisodes".
It's awesome because it has both very drastic, harsh scenes combined with sick dark humour. Also, ongoing story, good scripts, good characters and cast.
-
I second that!
-
Yeah..! Give S04 soon imo!
Gotta say that I like the new Sky show called "An Idiot Abroad".
Ricky and Steve sends Karl Pilkington to see the world's seven wonders. He's not travelled and would rather stay at home where things are safe and "not weird". Pretty much humour where the guy doesn't know he's hillarious.
-
Anyone seen Spartacus : blood and sand ?
Its quite awesome if you ask me :P
take a look at it ! :)
I already downloaded and watched whole season 1 and it was actually very very good ! Sex , blood and wine , i just love Rome!
-
Yeah, I saw the show. They apparently got Lucy Lawless to do another season, so she's coming back from the dead to do another ;)
boooooooooooooobs
-
Don't spoil you gimp! I haven't seen Spartacus yet.
I hear it was like Rome... but nowhere near as good. More like 300 with boobs.
Breaking Bad sounds good; will grab for the winter lull.
-
Yeah watched 1st season of Spartacus and must say its pretty good, effects are imba (like from movie 300), as a story is. Shame no 2nd season till 2011.
-
Did anyone mention Smallville? ;o
It's good, watch it! Most seasons are in 720p aswell, more fun.
-
I did mention smallville but its so many pages back. Shame its the last season if there are like more seasons coming up I'd never ever be bored to watch.
Also almost all of the series are in 720p :)
-
If you skip like the 4 first seasons of Smallville it gets good :P As the whole High-School + infected ppl get boring very fast...
-
Spartacus is a cross between The Gladiator, 300 and soft porn :p
GO WATCH YO!
-
So like Alexander although alexander was gay porn...
-
If you skip like the 4 first seasons of Smallville it gets good :P As the whole High-School + infected ppl get boring very fast...
As an old Superman fan...
No.
Smallville rapes Superman lore - do not fucking want.
-
Dang, just watched the first episode of Breaking Bad... it's exceptional! Incredibly well directed. Hope it stays this good :)
-
its pretty awesome I watched all the seasons in a week or so
-
Loved Spartacus! You just need to uhm, not expect anything more then choppy slash serie with loads of good quality boobies.
Recently i found new serie that kinda rocked me out, title is Terriers, it's about 2 private investigators that well do their job. I dont remember if i ever had so many laught's while watching a serie, so strongly recommending. I cant really find words to describe this serie in better way, so just take a glance at official site and you should get a clue how its made :) http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/terriers/
Also The Walking Dead got its premiere recently, good serie, hope for atleast 2-3 season's of good stuff.
-
Oh and btw, Lois Lane in Smallville is hot. ;d
-
She is hot indeed. And her mother in the last episode!!! (In Turkish there is a phrase called 'Anasina bak kizini al demisler', which means (in my word of translating) observe (or see) her mother (if she is beautiful) and then get her daughter (either u marry her, or ask her to be ur gf whatever).

Loled ;D
-
Well the funny thing is that her mother is played by Teri Hatcher who played Lois Lane in "Lois and Clark" a few years back.
EDIT: Im getting too old, when I say a few years I mean 17 years ago :P
-
You mean 'The New Adventures of Superman', don't you? I remember watching that... 17 years ago :P
-
Teri Hatcher was hot!
-
Teri Hatcher was hot!
She is still hot!

and still is!

Damn! 10 pages and no one mentioned "The Wire"?
Has anyone seen it?
I would attempt to explain what it is like, but if anyone knows how cynical Charlie Brooker is, then you'll know it's a big deal when he gives it praise. And oh how he does!
He constantly talked about it in his show screenwipe on BBC3 a few years ago, and since then made a whole episode literally dedicated to it. Here's a part of it where he explains it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tz99jZRqZwA (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tz99jZRqZwA)
I've seen lost, prison break, sopranos, generation kill (made by the same people as the wire), and the wire hands down fucks those series lol.
it is so good it has ruined my tv watching, i cant watch other tv series now because all of them just seem tacky lol (except south park) xD

I was thinking the same! I've downloaded the five seasons after I saw the first EP, but only have watched 10 EP of S1 so far. I can't agree with you more, it is awesome!
-
The wire is one of the best shows ever.
Also, Charlie Brooker is such a big fucking douche. Everything that comes out of his mouth is just so annoying.
-
Yar, The Wire is great. Very hard to watch, though -- the dialogue is so damn difficult to follow.
I think I preferred Six Feet Under -- great drama, but a nice amount of black comedy, too.
-
Oh, and Treme season 2 has started! Season 1 was fantastic. It has a few people from The Wire.
(The black female cop is in 'Body of Proof', too.)
-
I know what you mean delling, it took me like 2-3 episodes to grasp the baltimore ghetto rhetoric but it's definitely worth it!
Yeah Treme is made by the same people as the wire.
they made the wire, then generation kill, then treme - but I haven't properly watched treme yet although i plan to.
As for random cameo appearances from people in the wire... the funniest i've found is this:
