Spec me some TV shows

Goose · 11 May 2009 at 20:03

I pretty much gave up on British TV many years ago and took to watching mostly US stuff (particularly HBO).

I seem to have run dry and i'm open to any suggestions on new stuff.

The list of shows i've already finished or am up-to-date with are as follows;

The Sopranos
Deadwood
The Wire
Heroes
24
Lost
The Unit
Generation Kill
CSI

And probably more that i've forgotten.

Spec away!

I think he does the part just fine.

Anyway, OP; you need to watch DEXTER.

It's far better than a lot of the stuff in this thread.

Dexter is indeed fantastic, although S3 is a bit of a letdown.

Sash · 11 May 2009 at 21:20

House & Numb3rs

N00bie · 11 May 2009 at 21:24

Dexter season 1 and 2 not watched three yet

Hen_Dawg · 11 May 2009 at 21:30

Weeds. Very well made, good acting and hilarious.
And the mum is a proper MILF

Chuck and Battlestar Galactica are the obvious ones.

Also try Burn Notice. It's not as well known as the heavy hitters such as Lost and Heroes, but it's a lot of fun.

I thought S3 was great, Miguel is a real character.

theres a new programme called 'lie to me', its only been advertised on sky one recently, looks pretty good

oli collett · 11 May 2009 at 22:42

The Corner. Short but worth a watch

Sonea Fifer · 11 May 2009 at 22:54

My suggestion would be House MD - they're up to 5 seasons now and it's worth watching right from the start.

I bought season one from Flea Bay for £4.00 and got hooked
