tv thread

now i have my life back and some free time on my hands, i can catch up on all the greeeeeeeat tv i've no doubt been missing out on for the last x months years. anyone have any recommendations? any good new shows coming out in the US this autumn i should have a look at? there's been a lost-sized h*** in my tv viewing habits for the last few years and i need something to fill it...

the last few things i watched were the chicago code (liked it but it got cancelled ) and i've just watched seasons 1-3 of spiral (aka engrenages, a french cop drama thing which is completely excellent).

excellent show. Daleks are one of the most frightening things i've ever seen on television. Exterminate:

parks and rec is a blatant rip off of the office. If you just want to tune into the new episodes, it will still be funny, and much better than the early stuff.

Parks and Recreation is much more formulaic than My Name is Earl. Earl was a totally unique and innovative show while Parks and Recreation is just The Office with parks and recreation.

Ok. I respect your opinion. At least you're not saying that two and a half men with Ashton kutcher is good!

Parks and Recreation is a thousand times better than My Name is Earl, which was formulaic, over the top garbage.

imoz.

I refuse to watch that show. They kicked off My Name is Earl for that trash.

If you're going to watch Parks and Recreation from the beginning, keep in mind that the first season isn't very good, and that it the characters and story lines really get interesting in season two.

i do watch the office (which has gone off the boil the last few seasons, imo) and i have seen the wire (which is great).

haven't seen either community or parks & recreation so i am gonna check those out. think i saw an ep of trailer park boys once and hated/did not get it :/
