Arrested Development

My Name is Earl

I've been buying DVDs off the web, they are getting pretty cheap (but it is amusing to see the logos from the TV stations sometimes on the real cheapies ;) )

I'm watching the various seasons of House atm, I love it.

try some of the Top Gear DVDs

Long Way Round / Long Way Down - Ewan Macgregor's motorbiking around the world, a good watch.

Also been watching Criminal Minds, I quite like the new Law and Order UK. Battlestar Galactica is no more... :( For sci-fi I enjoyed recently watching Firefly (a Joss Whedon show). It's actually pretty amusing, just need to take it in the spirit it was intended. One episode with Christina Hendricks as the captain's wife is brilliant - I nearly cried laughing.

warehouse 13

Don't know if it's been mentioned before but Skins is an awesome show.. I've only seen seasons 1 & 2 (characters changed after that) and was slightly addicted..

The Wire.

Think of all the high tech, expensive stuff in CSI - then go the opposite. policing while the state is broke.

Big on character development, it could take a few episodes to get into.

Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip is a bloody excellent show.

Its based around a Saturday Night Live type sketch show, following the behind the scenes of making the show. Gets right into how advertising works, who runs the networks etc etc. I love it.

Only ran for 1 series, which is a damn shame but expected given that the show lacks the amount of murder and/or sex scenes required for any show in the States to be successful these days.
