Like the movie thread but for a good or bad TV show you've recently seen.
I don't watch TV at home, but over the last couple weeks I've seen the past season of Weeds, except for the season finale at a friends house.
And this week I caught the two episodes of MI-5/Spooks here in the US.
Weeds seems to have an It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, where the characters aren't always good people but they're interesting.
And MI-5 seems like 24 without a central character so anyone can die, which makes me happy and sad, 'cause I thought of that idea after or around the second season of 24.

I like Leverage a lot, but they have really short seasons. I also discovered recently that Hulu has the complete series of both the new The Outer Limits and Sliders. While Sliders completely fell apart around the third season, The Outer Limits had pretty good quality through all seven seasons.

The first few seasons of Spooks were the best - it's gotten a bit over the top lately.

I don't watch much TV as our current apartment only has cable in one room. However, I do have DVD sets for Home Improvement, CSI (original), Sledge Hammer, Enterprise, Phineas and Ferb, and (most recently watched) Darkwing Duck, at least the first set.

If you have cable (AMC) or the ability to get ahold of episodes online, The Walking Dead comes with the Bez seal of approval. Previous shows to gain this seal include: 30 Rock, Fringe Season 1, Mad Men Seasons 1 and 2.

I've heard good things about The Walking Dead, plan on getting it on Amazon View on Demand and get the season pass when it isn't so hard to justify the expense.

Huge fan of Bones, Castle, Fringe (along from the X Files and War of the Worlds - my entire sci fi tolerance line-up) and NCIS at the moment - apart from that I'm waiting for the BBC to pick up Rubicon and Sky Atlantic to kick off with Broadwalk Empire, Treme et al. Apart from that and comedy panel shows such as Have I Got News For You and QI - I pretty much focus on box sets - The West Wing, CSI Mothership, Band of Brothers and the holy tv grail that is The Wire.

Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated and Adventure Time are pure awesome. Recommend to everyone as proof cartoons for kids can still be good lately. Generator Rex and Ben 10: Ultimate Alien are much less awesome (especially Ben 10), but I still enjoy watching them. I like the concepts of each more than the actual characters. I've also been catching Men in Black: The Series, which just started re-airing. I haven't seen the show since I was a kid. I think it holds up reasonably well. And we did just have The Venture Bros.' season finale, so that won't be there to catch for a while. There are other shows I keep up with on DVD, but you'll have to check the Tai List for those.

I'm a big fan of the Walking Dead comics, sadly the TV show hasn't made its way to our shores yet. I have high hopes though.
Finished watching Battlestar Galactica with my mum and my brother last night, was very disappointed with the preachy ending. What a crap way to finish a series.

The Walking Dead is one of those rare shows that make you glad someone invented television. It almost makes up for Dancing With The Stars.

Wait...it's reairing!? WHERE IS MEN IN BLACK: THE SERIES AIRING?! |
