I watch a lot of tv shows, I am just trying to find something I didnt see before.
I am thinking about Doctor Who/Battlestar Galactica/ or Oz. These are a few shows I've heard a lot of buzz about but dont know which one to get into. Any recommendations?

    Oz was the prison show on HBO right? That was pretty cool.

    Oz was super awesome as was Battlestar Galactica. Six Feet Under was also a great show, and I maintain that it had the best series finale I've ever seen on any show.

    Spartacus was really amazing too, I only saw the first season but I think I watched the whole thing in like 2 days, I was obsessed :lol: It's like a mixture of Gladiator and 300, if you are into those movies.

    From your list I've seen two of the three, so I can recommend both Oz and Battlestar.

    I've only seen the first two seasons. Has the show maintained the level of quality it established early on?

    I think it has, the 4th season just started and I thought the 3rd season was great. Definitely worth checking out in my opinion.

    Six Feet Under has to be one of my TOP favorites.
    Of the shows that are on now.... Parenthood and Modern Family are great.
