Tv show recommendation
Just finished Battlestar Galactica (which was incredible apart from the finale) and looking for another TV show to help me pass my time at night. Fairly open to genre but must be at least 2 seasons old (prefer if it has finsied).
Currently considering The Wire, Dead Like Me or Sopranos.
Thanks in advance.

24 will keep you occupied for a while.
watch "Heroes"
or maybe "Hemlock Grove" they deff keep me clicking next x.x <3
Definitely Sopranos
Breaking Bad
Arrested Development
Dexter
Hannibal (only one season so far but still good)
Game of Thrones
The X Files
BBC Sherlock
Parks and Recreation
American Horror Story
Supernatural (I literally always suggest this in these kinds of threads)
Arrow <~ only one season since it just premiered last October but a great retelling of the Green Arrow
Primeval (British series though, not American)
Criminal Minds
Nikita (CW)
Vampire Diaries(CW)
Futurama
Lol I watch alot of CW...
[quote=2005chuy]Based on AD try Community and Parks & Rec
Based on Seinfeld you could try Everybody Loves Raymond, That 70s Show, and The King of Queens.[/quote]
Love Community, apart from the last season, could not watch past the 2nd episode. Parks & Rec actually is very high on my list of shows to watch.
Enjoyed most of That 70s Show, but absolutely hated Raymond and Kings of Queens. Thanks anyways mate
Sherlock (It has exactly 2 seasons! AND OMG THE WAIT FOR THE NEXT SEASON LIKE HOW ABOUT NO)
I heard Supernatural's good.
I've also heard Buffy's good.
I actually watch like 3 on-going T.V shows... DW, Sherlock and Detective Conan (which is an anime).
@dimo I think roswell was one of the best shows on tv myself
I have the box set 1-3 and the 4th on my pc i just wish it would have been longer (there may be a remake of this show within the next few years i hear)
Sex and the City (6 seasons, 2 movies)
Based on AD try Community and Parks & Rec
Based on Seinfeld you could try Everybody Loves Raymond, That 70s Show, and The King of Queens.
Edit: Ugh I can't believe I forgot. You should also try Louie, it's probably my favorite tv comedy of all time. A little biased though because I'm a huge Louis CK fan.
Most suggestions I have seen.
I think I might have to put Mad Men, The Wire and Sopranos in a hat a draw one out randomly.
@dimo: If you want some comedy or something to casually watch, try the series Drawn together or Robot chicken on project free tv (Just google that. It's a tv show episode database with working links. Works for any tv shows you can imagine.)
edit:
On the go - Quick shows for quick dinners:
(22mins/ep) Drawn together : A reality TV show making fun of stereotypical characters of other TV shows. Its animated.
(10mins or 20mins/ep) Robot chicken: Hilarious multi-parody 3 seconds to 2 minute skits made using claymation or action figures.
(60mins/ep) BBC's Sherlock holmes : Great mystery tv series on sherlock holmes. Wouldn't say it rivals the movie but it comes pretty close.
The Inbetweeners...original UK version..US version was poop. an Phoneshop is absolutely amazingly funny
Dollhouse, Firefly, TSCC
@Fade2BlacK:
Mad Men looks amazing, definitely adding to the list, the rest i've seen
@Ness:
Have seen all but latest season
@EpikSnow: Have seen the British office and all of Dr Who (absolutely love Dr Who).
@2005chuy:
Sorry, should have added a list of shows I have enjoyed:
Pushing Daisies
X Files
Freaks and Geeks
Arrested Development
Suits
Doctor Who
Misfits
Seinfeld
Mash
Breaking Bad
Wonder Years
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (7 seasons)
Angel (Buffy spinoff, 5 seasons, cancelled but plot line finished)
Dollhouse (2 seasons, cancelled but plot line finishes pretty much)
The X-files (9 seasons, 2 movies)
Either the Sopranos or The Wire.
I'd honestly start off with Sopranos and then The Wire.
But then I like both probably just me though.
The Wire was good. It'd help to know what you've seen/liked already.
@DarkClaw:
Have seen friends, no desire what so ever to start the BBT
@Lynerus:
Seen all of SG1, not sure if I can watch a teen drama sci-fi, but will at leas have a quick look at Roswell
The office. a lot of dry humor but it is definitely a fun show to watch. Sopranos is pretty good. I introduced it to all of my housemates and they finished 2 seasons in a week. Doctor who is a pretty thought provoking show (If you havent watched it, start with season 6's episode "Blink" by far a great episode).
But then again, these are just recommendations. People usually don't watch shows that other people suggests (idk why, maybe a psychology thing).
Community.
Best three dramas going on right now imo
Mad Men
Breaking Bad
Game of Thrones
Arrested Development for comedy
Never seen it, but I've heard great things about House of Cards
[quote=DarkClaw]The Big Bang Theory
Friends (if you haven't watched it already)[/quote]
I agree with the second one
But the first one is terrible.
Stargate SG-1
Roswell
Charmed
Them are my top 3!
