TV Shows - Nov 21, 2008 09:36
Im looking for some new tv shows to occupy me and to put on my Zune.

So, Kikizo, what tv shows (currently airing) do you watch? Also, what tv shows do you want renewed for another season that so far arent (or have been cancelled)?

Personally I watch:
Heroes
Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles
Sons of Anarchy
and Pushing Daisies

Id love to see The Middleman get a second season, but its looking unlikely. And of course Jericho.

Also, I would sell my soul for Angel to get a 6th televised season (not that comic rubbish) with James Marsters returning as Spike. Sigh, I guess Joss Whedon is too busy making a show with a shitty plot to care about the awesomeness of the possiblilities that were left with the ending of Season 5.

I don't even watch tv anymore.  Television took a sharp dive when they stopped making Seinfeld episodes.  If I'm lucky I'll catch a good documentary or movie.  The other day I watched a documentary on the real gangs of Southside Boston.  The movie The Departed is based on these individuals.  They even had some of these old gang members for inviews.  That's the kind of shit i like to watch.  The man that Jack Nickolson plays is still alive is ranked number 2 in the FBI most wanted list, second only to Osama Bin Laden.  This guy is amazing he fucked everyone including the local police, FBI, the Irish gangs, the mafia.... and he managed to get away. 

Mainstream shows are trash.

Pretty much. The last series that I got into was Burn Notice. Other than that and the occasional Family Guy or South Park all I watch is football(American of course). I would say download some documentaries, like Agent mentioned, but I wouldn't know where to begin to look for them.

Green Wing and Peep Show were the last two series I actually got into.  They're not exactly high budget action dramas though.

Monk is a very interesting show. Dexter has been great (all current seasons come with the netflix streaming service along with Weeds). All seasons of That 70s Show are pretty good cept the last 2. I been playing catchup with Lost recently. The first season of Heroes was cool dunno bout 2 and 3 tho. Fringe is looking to shape up well but Ive only caught the first two episodes.

Check out Hulu.com as they have lots of shows to stream.  

A couple of great canceled shows are Undeclared and Freaks and Geeks. You know the shows from Judd Apatow. Mystery Science Theatre is also a great no longer airing show. However the creators have moved on to Cinimatic Titanic and the very funny Rifftrax.com. On Rifftrax they got some shorts to download that are drm free and about a dollar or less a peice. Basically, if you don't know what theydo, they provide humorous commentary to old films as well as current blockbusters. You either download the mp3 file in which they instruct you how to sync with your dvd or use the free rifftrax player in which you pop in your dvd and just load up the riff trax and it will do the syncing for you. They have some previews on their site to get a better idea.

Yeah, I forgot about that. I also saw a show called Psych that use to come on at the same time, but I only saw a few episodes. The few I did see were good though.

I'm watching The Wire from series one at the moment - have the first 3 series to get through.  Great Cop drama based in Baltimore.

Other than that:
Doctor Who (David Tenant episodes, good sat night TV)
The IT Crowd (new series started last night and was class again!)
The Might Boosh (2nd series is the best by a mile)
I'm Alan Partridge (wish Coogan would do more of this, but not sure where it would go?  He ended it at it's peak)
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Arrested Development
Trailer Park Boys

South Park, Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad obvioulsy!!
