what to watch now??

tabatha

can anyone recommend any show to watch now that heros is over? i am lost for something good to watch now!

Hobbes

Painkiller Jane is basically Heroes from another angle.

qwertplaywert

if ye aint seen it allready, i strongly reccomend renting out 24 season 1 from extravision and locking yourself in a room with a dvd player/tv for a day or two
also, try renting battlestar galactica, and arrested development

Raphael

How I met your mother is quite good, s'my other addiction. In fact one might even go so far as to say that it's Legen - wait for it - dary.

im...LOST

I'm lovin' Prison Break and Lost at the moment.

An Heroes of course.

someone else told me to watch 24 so i think that will be my next move! have already watched all of lost, prison break and all the csi's oh and bones (got to love it!).

thanks for all the advice guys.

can i also ask, has anyone ever seen a show called medium? it looks quite good and is part based on a real person.

Hobbes

If it is just shows in general. Dexter. By far the best this year.

Orion

Dexter is brilliant. Are they making a second series?

Also I'd recommend House MD - Hugh Laurie is brilliant in it.
And The Sopranos if you haven't watched it before.

Overheal

I stole 2 seasons of Prison Break from a french guy in my apt building of the local net - got through a couple episodes; it doesnt seem too bad.

24 is good stuff though: I think my favorite was Season 2. When season 6 hits DVD i'll hit that up too though.

BSG is good but season 3.5 is where it starts to dip.

If you're looking for a best fit replacement for your Heroes gap - I reccomend 24: All that suspense and intrigue (though none of the humour)

just looking at wikipedia for this show and it looks great. a friend has it for me so i am going to start watching this now also! thanks for all the great advice guys.

bruce wayne

season 2 of Dexter due to be shown in September (state side)

zefer

Totally agree, has to be Dexter, fantastic stuff

Agamemnon

I'm watching Dexter too, great stuff. To keep the Heroes buzz going, I've been watching ads for the NISSAN VERSA.

qwertplaywert

try out the 90s cartoon ''Batman:The Animated Series'', i feel it and Heroes share alot of similaritys

Overheal

.....................................................what similarites?

Though the series is pretty good. Fond memories.

ixoy

If you want another show about people developing powers, for some greater (unknown) reason, then there's "The 4400" to catch.

Gaijin

Would really recommend Firefly if you haven't seen it.

Still my favorite above Heroes :eek: I know what I said!

Cabaal

Eureka - http://www.tv.com/eureka/show/58448/summary.html?q=&tag=search_results;title;1

Starts in 4 days in the states, certainly worth a watch, it was known as A Town Called Eureka when Sky One aired it,


Stargate Atlantis Season 4 starts on the 28/09/2007 also

Andy-Pandy

You havnt said if you have seen Battle Star Galactica, if not stick it to the top of your list. It rocks, the only downside is that friends are going to start wondering why they dont see you so much anymore and what the hell does frack me.

lol, lock urself in a room for 2 days, to watch 24

tabatha

i watched the first episode of dexter last night. omg!! he is mad!!! mabye a bit to violent but riveting all the same, thanks guys.....only 12 episodes of this then its onto 24! happy days!

ps, keep the suggestions coming thanks

Mark Hamill

I'd suggest Supernatural to anyone who hasn't watched it yet. The banter between the two main characters is great and the storylines are usually very good.

gandalf

Yep just watched the first two episodes of Dexter as well and its very good (in a sick sort of way).

Getting my hands on the other 10 eps now

LordBlonde

Dexter is definitely the best thing on at the moment. I saw the first 2 episodes of season 2 today and so far it's looking as good as the first season.

Now I have to wait until September to see the rest though...:(

User45701

first 2 eh? EDIT: there they are.

i didnt know they where out i heard about the first 2 being out early last year as well and last year 4 weeds where out early 2. is this people risking there jobs just to put a pre-air on the net, someone i know insists its marketing tactics to get early feedback from dedicated online forums

L31mr0d

doesn't really need to be said, but another nod for Dexter. Also, Jericho is a decent watch if you haven't already seen it.

I'm also presently rewatching the X-Files. I'm also giving American Dad a shot, after dismissing it at first i'm starting to really get into it.

Oh, and watch fonejacker on E4 tonight. Funniest show i've seen in a long time

LordBlonde

I've been watching Burn Notice since it started as well. I was nearly turned off it by one of the worst Oirish accents from the I've ever heard from the female IRA gunrunner. :rolleyes: But thankfully they made their excuses and got rid of it by the second episode. She's still annoying though.

But luckily they make up for this by having Bruce Campbell in it!

qwertplaywert

ive started getting the x-files dvds,the first few seasons are frakking A

dexter is properbly the best new show of this year after heroes, well worth a watch
