So I've been moving away from watching movies as of late in lieu of watching TV series, because I like seeing a plot lines develop over a longer format... it gives events more gravity in my opinion.
Anyways, please share some good series to watch.
Things I've seen in their entirety:
Game of Thrones (Longtime lover of the books. The writing, cinematography, costumes, drama, and tits make it the best show currently on TV)
The Wire (Best 'realistic' show I've seen. Incredible depth and writing. Season 4 stands out as best season of any TV show)
Breaking Bad (To the point, engaging, and intense. I'm awaiting season 5.5 with baited breath!)
Deadwood (Lost a bit of momentum for me in season 3, but great huge cast and the filthyest language I've ever heard)
Sherlock (Great modern take on Sir A.C.D's work. Season 2 episodes 1 and 3 are mind-numbingly brilliant)
Firefly (Fun, silly, unique setting. Haven't seen Serenity yet)
Boardwalk Empire (Wonderful costumes and period accuracy.. seasons go a little long though)
Vikings (Very promising first season! Metal as FUCK)
Up next for me:
Rome
Finishing the new Arrested Development season
Tell me what is good! I've got the following shows in purgatory and am still deciding about whether or not to get into them:
Walking Dead, Mad Men, Dexter, Sopranos, Six feet Under, Oz, Doctor Who, Cowboy Bebop.

Oh ok. Yeah I only say that cus a friend of mine only saw that one episode and said "it's too much like The Office" so I had to explain to her that that was only one episode.

It's a scifi show set in modern day Sweden in a parallel universe where people have life-like androids (hubots). Of course the hubots start having human feelings and want to have civil rights.
The Finnish public broadcast company Yle's Swedish channel (Yle Fem) aired it almost immediately after its original airing in Sweden. It is out on DVD, but I think the one I have only has Finnish, Swedish, Danish and Norwegian subtitles. According to Wikipedia it aired in Australia too.

Did you see the celebrity-deathmatch-like animation one? It was awesome.

Not sure what you mean. You mean the christmas episode?
X-Thor wrote:Yes! The stop-motion animation there is just like the one used in Celebrity Deathmatch, so I just call it that... Probably not a very good idea, though.

Yeah that was hilarious! I don't know what celebrity deathmatch is though

Claymation fighting show that MTV did around the turn of the century. I think it debuted at halftime of the Super Bowl one year and turned into a full series after that. Fun times.

Also another fav in that category is Ancient Aliens. They are just all so interesting!
