I use to always be a movie guy, but over the last 5 years or so, I much prefer Television shows.
I am always getting hooked on a new series. There is so many quality shows out there.
I recently have been watching:
Its Always Sunny
Homeland
Game of Thrones

And I been loving all 3. I know there are a bunch more out there, and I have quite a few favorites myself.
Can you share some of your favorite shows?

For mine, I would say "The Wire" that one will always be tough to beat for me, just so many diverse characters and they are all played so well.

    I really like arrested development, six feet under, breaking bad, and southland is pretty good.And you are correct, The Wire is the best series ever in my opinion.

    Completely agree. One of the best series ever made.
    Breaking Bad. Best show on TV
    We just watched all 4 seasons earlier this year. I can't believe we waited so long!! Definitely ranks in my top 3 of all time. Such a fantastic show. The new season can't get here fast enough, IMO.

    Also loving Game of Thrones right now.

    Next Food Network Star
    Best Thing I Ever Ate
    Top Shot
    Parks and Rec>>>Ron fucking Swanson!!!
    The Office>>Think it's taken a step back up this season
    Robot Chicken>>>when it's funny there's no better nerd-ish stoner show, just started getting back into it
    How I Met Your Mother>>>Ted's kinduva bitch, but Marshall and Barney are pretty funny most of the time.
    Tosh.0
    Faceoff>>>cool movie makeup competition
    The Ultimate Fighter Live
    Seinfeld>>>simply put, the greatest show ever!!! Never seen a bad episode and I've seen them all about 50x each

    Friday Night Lights was tremendous. Great acting and story lines. I was sad to see it end. It's not just about football.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Top Gear is so wonderful! I'm so happy there's a new season. I like Richard Hammond's Crash Course, too.

    I watch mostly sitcoms. I like to be distracted by shiny and pretty when I get home from a long day at work. My faves are:

    Parks and Recreation
    Big Bang Theory
    2 Broke Girls
    How I Met Your Mother

    My guilty pleasure:
    Hoarders :D
