I've watched the following in this order:

The Sheild, season 1, 2, 3
24, season 1, 2, 3
Alias, season 1, 2, (about to rent season 3)

So far, suprisingly, I think The Sheild has been the most entertaining for me, while 24 is a close second, it just had a few things that bugged me enough to slot it to #2, which I won't get into so I don't have to write spoiler in the title.

my question is, what do I rent after Alias? /images/graemlins/confused.gif

p.s. I haven't seen the most recent seasons of any of the above, as I haven't come across them on DVD, so please note "spoiler, <show>/<season>" if you are gonna get into it. Yes, I am one of those pricks at a party who absolutely freaks out when someone spoils a movie/show.

People seem to think The Wire is good. I have it coming from Netflix soon. Band of Brothers is short but excellent. Sopranos is always a good option.

I've seen every episode of the wire and the sopranos. I should have mentioned. The Wire is really good, and Sopranos... obviously.

I enjoyed the few episodes of BoB that I saw, particularly the finale of a season (unsure which).

Awesome, I was thinking of posting a "what TV shows should I netflix and rip" thread, but now I don't have to. I can just bump yours.

Sopranos is pretty addictive to most people. People seem to like 6 feet under as well, I thought it was allright but couldnt really get into it.

You guys have terrible tastes in TV shows. Geez. Sitcoms are 80's early 90's. This is 00's.

Fox should pay me for all the spamming I do on this board about Arrested Development. I can't wait until Oct. 11 when the second season comes out. Fing brilliant show.

I love Six Feet Under, I normally get a dvd in the mail from netflix and watch the 2 or 3 episodes on that disc the day I get it. After I'm done with SFU, I will start watching The Sopranos which I have never seen.

I'll second the nomination for Arrested Development, it's the best show on television right now.

Others to check out:

The Office
Freaks and Geeks
Dead Like Me
Six Feet Under

Absolutely the best show on the air today is NIP/tUCK...Season 2 came out today and Season 3 starts in 3 weeks.

The only show that comes close to this is THE SHIELD

Try the first 3 episodes and tell me you arent hooked.

I tried really, really hard to like Arrested Development. TiVoed every episode. Started and stopped 3/4 of the way through the first season when I finally gave up.

Life's too short to watch something you don't really enjoy, but everyone says you should.
