When I watch television I don't want to waste my time on crap.
I would like some help with what to watch.
Give me your favorite tv series....ever.
My all time favorite is Homicide- Life on the streets.
The worst of times..they don't phase me,
even if I look and act really crazy.

    I LOVED Homicide. Definitely up there for me as one of the greats.

    If you dug that, you might like the Shield too.

    Oh god, the Sopranos. Another beloved...just beauty.

    And speaking of HBO, I can't recommend Six Feet Under enough.

    I also can't imagine trying to catch up on so many seasons, whether binging or not. I tried my best to do it with Breaking Bad but just couldn't.

    I started watching The Newsroom last week on demand. I binge watched and am now on episode 5 season two. Fantastic show and probably one of my all-time favorites already.

    If you can get your hands on them, start from the beginning. it's great. Real events are used in the storylines so it's very easy to get caught up in the show.

    I don't think it is. But there's an app called showbox that I used. Use aptoide to download it. I don't think it's in the android market. Also, if you have hbo, u can use the hbo to go app.

    This is what to look for when searching the showbox app.

    I greatly enjoyed Chris Carter's Millennium (despite its...awkward...ending, lol). My other top shows are Deadwood and Hannibal, for what it's worth, lol.
    Millennium was 3 "standard-length" seasons, while the other two are "short seasons" (3 for Deadwood, 2 so far for Hannibal).
    Despite its grim subject matter, Hannibal is the most artistic show I've seen in quite some time.

    If you like quirky comedies, scrubs is one of my favorite sitcoms.

    Such a good show! It really is underrated and often overlooked amongst the "hospital dramas" like ER & House, but it was one of the first to tackle things that actually happen in the health care business.

    The Newsroom was fantastic.

    Other brilliant ones - House, Suits, Oz, Blackadder (if you can get it), Ally McBeal (maybe not if you're a guy though?)

    House of Cards, Orange is the New Black, Marco Polo, Breaking Bad, Grey's Anatomy. All on netflix. Curb Your Enthusiasm is definitely a good one. Better Call Saul is coming soon - that oughta be good.
    I am also personally a big fan of Blue Bloods.

    Well, it's not a drama. It's 100% comedy. There are some bummer moments during the series. But make no mistake, it is a comedy and I don't think it can/should be compared to house.

    Btw, The first 5 or 6 seasons of House MD are excellent as well.

    Oh yeah, True Detective is a must-watch.
    Boardwalk Empire seems pretty awesome too. I've only managed to see a couple episodes, but even that was great. Looking forward to watching the whole series.
