Just coming to the end of the third series of Mad Men, which has proved to be very enjoyable viewing. Slightly surprised that so few people have mentioned it.

The only one I've got in mind to watch in future is The Pacific.

You gotta watch the Shield, its awesome man !
 
Entourage (Amazing, Jeremy Piven plays Ari Gold so well, prob one of my fav actors now)
Breaking Bad (Def worth a watch)
24 (Jack is the best but series are getting a bit weak now)
Californication (Amazing)
How I Met you mother (The first few series were funny but it's gotten old now, Barny still has his awesome moments though)
Dexter (Best show ever!)
The O.C (Season 1 and 2 are awesome)
Prison Break (season 1)
Flash Forward (started of good, went a little slow, now it has picked right back up. I really hope it doesn't fall over like lost did)

Need to watch: The Wire (i watched 2 episodes but it bored me, but my mate said it takes a few to get into it!)

The question is, what TV shows have you actually seen

Too many to list.

Judging by the other posts in this thread however, I'm assuming you are talking primarily 'box set' type shows. Ignoring all the usual obvious choices that get churned out, I'll suggest:

Murder One:
Legal drama, some very strong acting performances and maybe even some familiar faces.

This Life:
Quite simply the best comedy drama I've ever seen. I watched it again in 2007 and it was just as funny and relevant as it was when it originally aired, the writers capture that 'natural' humour perfectly, the type of conversations people actually have. In some ways it clicked with me even more when I was the age of the characters involved, in fact Egg is my hero, ditching his job to sit around all day in his pants writing a novel while chatting about Alan Hansen's face and listening to Oasis. Just noticed you can get Season 1+2 box set for under £18 at Tesco, great deal for anyone who finds subtle, everyday observational humour funny while in the midst of actual dramatic plotline that isn't just some contrived story to setup all the gags.

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles
Doesn't really carry the same gravitas as the above, but I found it an enjoyable ride. The sort of thing that should appeal to people who like the Terminator lore, but aren't obsessive about it. It doesn't reach the heights of the movies but there are a few very compelling moments and it does even throw up a few interesting questions about morality and suchlike, plus the underlying tension of never being 100% sure who you can trust on a given subject.

Waiting to watch Grey's Anatomy (latest UK series), The Pacific and currently watching 24.

Going to trial Warehouse 13 and Castle this week (Virgin I think).

I miss The Unit and Sarah Connor Chronicles :(

I'm enjoying watching it very much. Storylines are mainly interesting and compelling. Visually it's very nice to watch and as you mention, the female cast tends to be fairly easy on the eye too.
