TV Shows

Bobalicious93

With it being the summer and all, I'm finding myself go through a lot of TV boxsets, and I need some suggestions on shows to watch.

So what TV shows do you watch regularly or watch on boxset?

I've just finished:

Battlestar Galactica Seasons 1+2
Band of Brothers
Dexter Seasons 1+2

Currently in the middle of Battlestar Galactica Season 3.

I've been thinking about moving on to Lost next, despite it seeming like a steaming pile of monkey crap without even having watched it. I should catch up on 24 aswell, I missed Seasons 3,4 and 7.

I watched all of Neon Genesis Evangelion last week.

That was pretty amazing.

The only TV show I kept up with was Heroes. Lost interest in Prison Break and Lost and the rest.

Saw a good one on actual TV the other day - something island. Kind of like a horror flick, in TV show form. Refreshing.

I have absolutely NOTHING to watch, I hate it.

I'm re wtching DVDs over and over again.

Lost I think is worth sticking with, season 1,2,4 and 5 are really good. 3 sucked balls though.


EDIT: I just noticed Father Ted has not been mentioned in this thread. I am editing it into this early post to put it as high as possible in the thread, where it deserves to be.

YES. Good God, yes.

David Mitchell is The One.
WHAT. A. MAN.

I've watched the boxset about 20million times, and I STILL laugh.

I adore Peep Show. I love going to one of my Dublin friends' houses and staying up all night watching and rewatching the DVDs. Beautiful.

Last few episodes where a bit too weird tbh.

Movies apparently make up for it though.

I downloaded them in one big lump so I may as well watch them

Jez imo. The episode where he was on jury duty was a classic.
Nancy's hotter and I can't choose between Johnson and Superhans.

Brilliant and all as Peep Show is there's only 5 series so far with 6 episodes in each so it won't take up a lot off your time. It can't be beaten for comedy though.

Definitely Mark. Oh God.
Also, Superhans.

I'm not really manly enough to answer the hotness question (being female...) but I'm I'd probably have to go with Big Suze, from an appreciative side of things.

season 8 was the last ever one if that's the one you're talking about and watched it online. it ends with

jd looking at a kind of video thing about his future we think and also him moving closer to kim and sam

and you also find out the janitors name..

Pygmalion

Scrubs isn't over forever, they've apparently planned to make new seasons, but without JD, he'll be in the first 6 episodes of a new one as a kind of transition and then as far as I know they'll start following new members of the hospital as main characters.

Oh and since there'll inevitably be a load of "OMG NO WAI YOU'RE BULL****TING": link!

Scrubs IS JD and what he does...you can't have one without the other.

Zach Braff likened it to Frasier as a spinoff of Cheers, so I think it'll be totally different. It's going to be the interns being taught by Turk and Dr Cox in a school environment, with occasional appearances from others or something.

I'm completely addicted to How I Met Your Mother and Flight of the Conchords (and, my guilty pleasure, The Big Bang Theory), I must have seen each episode around 20 times... I'm trying to find something new to watch, something pretty similar. A friend recommended The Inbetweeners, any good?

I quite like the inbteweeners. It's quite a brainless kind of comedy tbh but good for a giggle. There's a few cracking quotes too
