Sherlock. The British version where both Sherlock and Holmes are men (I've heard there is another version where Holmes is a woman)

Have you ever watched Archer? Just think, James Bond in cartoon, if James Bond and all his cohorts are really screwed up. (not unusually fast dialog but I'm just recommending it because if you like DCUM you'll like this.

Finally, The Front Page, a black and white 40s film with Cary Grant and Rosalyn Russell, was written with 2/3 more dialog than your average script. Really fast, very funny, and served as a basis for the 80s (?) show Moonlighting with Cybil Sheppard. This last paragraph is all off memory so I may have my spelling/dates a little off but you get the idea.

Farscape and Firefly. I think both are on Amazon Prime. They're both sci-fi based, but good storylines and great dialogue.

Justified is on Amazon prime. The Americans I watch with just one eye. Sons of anarchy is often recommended here but it's too violent for me.

Even if you're not a sci-fi person (I really, really am not), give Battlestar Galactica a try for a few episodes. It's really very good. DH talked me into watching it with him, and we've now watched the entire series probably 3-4 times on DVD.

Also - The Americans (premiered last year) is very good. The next season starts in late February, so you have time to catch up before then!

True Detective on HBO (currently midway through the first season) is really good so far.

And, Rome (HBO), if you've not seen that.


Crap, that was supposed to be American HORROR Story, sorry!

For new shows I like Alpha House on Amazon, True Detective on HBO and Brooklyn 99. Old shows I can't get enough of Big Bang Theory and all of the Star Trek series, the latter of which are all available through amazon prime.
