I have watched so far (past 8 years or so):
Sex and the City Sopranos Six Feet Under Weeds Mi5 Sherlock Holmes (new one) Dr. Who (new hone) BattleStar Galactica (sp?) Game of Thrones (just finished season 2, waiting for 3rd one to be released for streaming) Desperate Housewives (1st season only - didn't like the others/lost interest) Lost (didn't watch the last season or two and for what I have heard it is better this way) Dexter Criminal Minds Law and Order (Loved criminal intent) House of Cards Walking Dead Ugly Betty Glee (liked first few episodes and then lost interest) True Blood Heroes All the CSI (not a fan of Miami or NY, but watched for lack of better stuff - loved Las Vegas in the beginning) Monk (not towards the end because it became repetitive) Downton Abbey White Collar Damages Vampire Diaries (liked it in the beginning) JUST watched Firefly and Serenity over the holidays and I AM IN LOVE!!! ONe of the best series I have ever watched and I am amazed my husband never told me about it all these years (well, he introduced me to Dr. Who and the like)!!! So, what I like is: Good sci fi (hate monsters and creepy stuff - e.g. Alien), usually drama or with a funny twist. Smart comedy (detest American Pie type of comedy) Policial/criminal investigation - not a fan of "lawyer shows." Series with a focus on bad guys (Dexter for example). So, any suggestions? |

Damn! Do you have a job? How do you find time to watch so much TV?! I'm jealous.
Maybe you can watch Scandal? |

God no. It is not something I would like at all.... And yes, we do watch lots of tv from time to time. We go through "spurs," in which we do a marathon on some tv serie or series. Usually during the winter, oddly enough. |

| Warehouse 13 - no question. Very good sci-fi/fantasy-ish and funny. |

| Also re: WH 13 - weekly procedural investigation with overall yearly arc a la Buffy. And did I mention funny? |

| Survivors - not the reality tv show, the BRitish series. Like walking dead but no zombies. Just a flu that kills 99% of people. |

Don't know if it's available on Netflix and Amazon but I suggest checking out:
Torchwood (has Captain Jack from Dr. Who) which was shown on BBCA. If you liked Dr. Who, you will probably like Torchwood Orphan Black -- currently on BBCA, where a woman realizes that she looks like just a police officer who jumped in front of a train. In fact, there seem to be clones of her all over the world. The Returned -- French series currently on Sundance where people mysteriously return from the dead in a small town but they're not zombies. They just show up at their family's door and nobody knows what is happening. Creepy in an atmospheric way, not a blood and guts way. |
