    Hi All, it's been a while... figured I'd kick off my return with a favorite TV show post.

    The obvious:
    • The Walking Dead (Zombies are irresistible, y'know?)
    • Breaking Bad (Fuck Weeds)
    • Person of Interest (Jesus and Big Brother team up for a bunch of awesome)

    The Canadian underdog:
    • Todd and the Book of Pure Evil

    If you're in Canada (I know we're few) watch.spacecast.com has all of it, as does the Comedy Network. Otherwise, I think you know how to find it.

    What are some of your favourites? Bonus points for shit I haven't heard of.
    Torx; I know you'll be posting Ancient Aliens.

    Is Bering Sea Gold a treasure hunting show? If so, I'm down.

    I watch old TV series, so I'm the wrong person to ask:

    Dark Shadows (1966-1971)
    Futurama
    The Walking Dead (irresistible indeed!)
    Greg The Bunny

    Breaking Bad is good too, though I'm not caught up.

    I'm also a big fan of Food network shows, lol. Alton Brown's Good Eats and Andrew Zimmern's Bizarre Foods are my favorites.

    Hmmm... House (though mostly just out of habit I think, it hasn't been that great lately), Game of Thrones (super awesome), Big Bang Theory, True Blood, Amazing Race, Hell's Kitchen... I started watching Grimm but I'm a bit behind in it, not sure what I think of it yet.

    FOX NEWS!

    OK, seriously . . .
    I was considering watching Grimm, would have to catch up.
    Anyone like Justified? Was wondering about that one, too, but I'm not big on cop shows.

    Breaking Bad is awesome, maybe the best show ever.
    Mad Men, but it's wearing thin and they borked it for a whole year.
    HBO: Luck, Game of Thrones, True Blood (on the other hand, HBO comedy, both stand-up and sitcom, has sucked lately)
    I liked the Spartacus: Gods of the Arena set but when I went back to watch the first set, Blood and Sand, it got boring quickly.
    SNL-- still a big fan but it's not as good as it was mid-decade.
    Conan
    Daily Show
    The Colbert Show

    Older:
    Seinfeld-- I acquired the entire series and am halfway thru S3.
    Star Trek: Enterprise; missed it when it was on, and like the idea of the origins of Star Fleet theme, plus Jolene Blaylock is awesome in that klingy Vulcan uniform.
    A Town Called Eureka-- this is still on but I only discovered it recently and am slowly catching up.

    Breaking Bad was alright. I just finished the series- kind of a predictable show, but still pretty good I guess.

    My 2 favorites are tied between The Sopranos and The Wire. Watched the entire series of both and thought they were very well done, although I was disappointed with the ending to The Sopranos. I also enjoy Gangland, I Almost Got Away With It, Locked Up Abroad, and Top Gear.
    I don't have anything I'm watching now. I'll have to find another crime drama show. :\

    Yes. Gold dredging. The shear amount these guys pull out of the sea in a single day is amazing. Though, their mining season is extremely short.

    And he's a stalky one too. Strong as an ox! Thus far, the guys are kicking the snot out of the women (it's the guys against the gals this season). Where the heck do they find these folks?

    Right now I'm hooked on Workaholics.

    I never thought I'd enjoy The Walking Dead, although it went from a post-apocalyptic zombie show in season 1 to a drama with Christian undertones in season 2. I hope it picks up again.
