Your Favourite TV series/programmes

Thanks, I've already watched Chuck. It's relatively fun, but not up to the top 10 I picked out...

I used to love The Young Ones, with Rik Mayal, Adrian Edmunson etc

It looks so dated now though.

It was good, but I preferred Bottom with just Rik Mayal and Adrian Edmondson

You should, it's a great show, some fantastic characters.

Dexter S04 excellent! John Lithgow is v good!

I recognised him in the first episode, that character's a long way from Dick in 3rd Rock from the Sun (another of my faves)!

no particular order:

californication
breaking bad
white collar
leverage
dexter
entourage
weeds
the wire
hustle
burn notice
how i met your mother
the shield
the office (us)
gilmore girls (im straight i swear!)

im in a village - near limassol

i can get english tv via torrents, so if 'er indoors wants something i can usualy find it.

but at the moment its far to hot to sit and watch the goggle box

It's interesting to see some of the lists include literally NO US TV shows! Some of their programs definitely match/surpass the "best of British" so you're missing out if you're dismissing shows from the other side of the pond!

 

[foz]

Classics but goodies:

Dads Army
Only Fools and Horses
Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister
Porridge and Going Straight
The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin
Blackadder
Seinfeld

They don't make them like they used to!
I'm a big fan of the old british stuff but more so the films. I love all the old ealing comedies and a big fan of Will Hay, Norman Wisdom, Carry on.
