Ride your bike.
not really feasible at 11 at night, smart arse 😉
The Office?
sopranos
The Wire - but be prepared for it to ruin every other TV drama you watch.

cheers guys, will give sopranos a go i think.
George and Mildred
Terry and June
Chorlton and the wheelies
Babestasion
Trailer Park Boys? 1st series takes a bit of perserverence, then it's the funniest thing ever made. I want to be Ricky, though.
Life on Mars - one of the very few decent series made in the last few years. the first episode is a bit slow but persevere

Battlestar Galactica,
Band of Brothers
The Wire - ****in brilliant

Fringe
Life on mars - brilliant, and with a brilliant ending. Ashes to Ashes is rubbish but has a fit bird in it to keep you entertained
The Wire - Best TV I have ever seen
Lost and 24 - perfectly watchable and plenty of it
Doc Martin - pretty funny
My next Boxset will be the shield
Outrageous Fortune
top tip: buy boxed sets for peanuts used on amazon. burn them. sell them again.

NCIS: Los Angeles - again not sure why but I'm hooked - a different thing to NCIS

Luther on Iplayer before the finale next week.
How about some comedy? Spaced, Father Ted, Black Books, IT crowd, 15 storeys high?
Or some anime, Noein is amazing, or Cowboy Bebop, Ninja Scrolls......
Bit subjective this.
just watch family guy !
Curb your enthusiasm! Best comedy in YEARS.
All the UK stuff like Black Books, Father Ted etc. has been repeated to DEATH.
For some reason I'm typing like the Beastie BOYS.
Depends if you've actually seen the repeats though, and I'm pretty certain 15 storeys hasn't ever been repeated.
You're right on Curb your enthusiasm though, very good.
What do you like? Give us something to go on. Comedy? Sci-fi? Drama?
trailor park boys +1
I have the boxset.

Luther is very good. It seems over stylised at first, but you stop noticing that and get drawn in. I like the way it cuts out a lot of the cop-drama staples, most of what you'd see in a morse/frost type detective drama is despensed with in a few minutes, the rest of each story sits in a place after the credits would have rolled in a normal show.
The Wire is superb but you need to have the time to give to it, and you'll squander it if you don't. Its very good in its own right but its also good in a way that renders a lot of other tv drama redundant.
Old episodes of taggart are good for a laugh, just because they are so slipshod, some of the laziest TV making making you'll ever witness. Why shoot a scene in multiple takes and multiple angles when you can just cram everyone into one shot, usually talking to the side or back of each others heads. Sometimes they cram the cast so close together the look like they're going to kiss. That and clangers like car chases where both the chaser and the chasee are driving the same make, model and colour of vehicle make it strangely compulsive viewing.
Early Doors. Brill 😀
Mighty Boosh, IT Crowd - good recommendations.
The BBC2 drama that was just called Cops was very good. Looking After JoJo.
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia or Modern Family for laughs. Luther is dull & predictable despite the dude from The Wire gracing it.
Green Wing!
Most Epic TV Series ever regarded by many
The Wire
Twin Peaks
Awesome comedys:
Trailer Park Boys
Eastbound and Down
Twisted Humour
