My top 5 (all mentioned previously, save for number 5):

Six Feet Under
Breaking Bad
The Wire
Dexter
Twin Peaks (Season 1)

HH to

Game of Thrones
Weeds (Seasons 1 and 2, only. It quickly became garbage after)
Walking Dead

I agree on Law&Order. I miss it too. SVU is still pretty good, though.

My mom loves The Good Wife (no insult intended lol)...from the times that I've sat down with her and watched it actually looks very interesting but I just don't have the time to start yet another series...especially when I've got Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones on the docket.

I should watch it at some point.

Shows I've watched and are watching ... These are my favorites

1) Sopranos - set the bar that may never be reached again
2) The Wire - may have the best characters I have ever seen in a series (Omar, Bubbles, McNulty,Bunk, Avon, and the list goes on)
3) Dexter - love the concept and first couple seasons. Worried its started to jump the shark this season but so far still relevant
4) Game of Thronesv- So many layers to this show and back history. Literally can't wait until season 3 begins
5) Mad Men - Don Draper is a bad ass pimp. Slow at times but great writing on the show
6) Sons of Anarchy - no bullshit kind of show. Gets to the point and doesn't drag on. Just finished season 3 and looking forward to catching up
7) Lost - 1st season may be the best season I may have ever watched. Season 4 finale was unbelievable to me.
8) Rome - kinda bummed it only lasted 2 seasons

On my must watch list

Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Spartacus, Homeland, and Boardwalk Empire

Also see a lot of Lost fans on here. Read an article On Grantland yesterday about how the show was written and how it barely came together. Here is the link http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/...l-origins-lost worth a read!

Good call on the short lived Firefly, PD. It was a very enjoyable season. Serenity was fitting follow up film as well.

I recently wrapped up watching the reboot Doctor Who. Though if were to suggest before watching, skip to season five (2010). It features the 11th (and most recent) version of the Doctor and his timeline does well as a stand alone. Once hooked, then return to season one (through four + specials) a go. I prefer the 10th Doctor (2-4) to the 9th (1) though.

Dexter, Game of Thrones and Walking Dead round up my current/recent top five. As Dexter and Walking Dead finish up, I will give both Homeland and Arrow a shot.

Firefly. Man. Nothing bad to say about that show, other than it was too short. Incredible mix of genres. Deadwood is my favorite repeat series but Firefly is a close second.

Is adult film considered drama if we put it on mute and eliminate cheesy background music?

Seriously,

Homeland, Breaking Bad - both terrific.

Gonna have to check out The Wire, with everyone raving about it, sounds like the next series to soak in.

We should throw the top sixteen shows into brackets and crown a champ.
