English TV series discussion

Re: Please suggest an english TV series

If you like comedy drama ... WEEDS :hap2:
total tp damn addictive

Garth Marenghi's Darkplace - oldish british show with only 6 episodes but outrageously hilareous for all the wrong reasons

For horror Fans there is .... Dead Set - miniseries of 5-6 episodes

Drama in the Ad world - Mad Men

MONK :D

The terminator sets have also been taken down.

And why should you hate fox?
My younger brother, who watches it, told me the 2nd season had gotten so boring in the middle that he simply wanted to stop watching it. And he told me you were thinking of leaving it too.

Because I WANT to..

Yeah i remember telling you the same, But the last 2-3 eps were mind blowing..I would rate the last ep as the best episode ever aired on television..You can only watch it with you heart to understand and enjoy the end moments..

Im going to watch it again in a few minutes..:)

then you should expand your horizons a little bit more my friend :)

try arrested development and curb your enthusiasm and see if your list gets shaken up a bit ;)

Those two and shows like The Office offer a very specific style of humor that not all people would like. Especially Curb is basically just an asshole getting into fights with random people, and apparently most of the stuff in it is improvisational. I don't think you can compare a show like Scrubs with any of those considering how different they are in style. Hardly any show stays good for more than 3 seasons and at least Scrubs is still watchable.

PRobably it was taken for granted that everyone loved F.R.I.E.N.D.S.. :D Even now I watch the reruns of Friends on Zee Cafe. As a matter of fact, it is on air right now. Every Sunday, 2.30pm to 4pm there are 5 episodes of Friends aired back to back in random order. :D

Re: Please suggest an english TV series

Terminator's season 2 is such a let down, half way through the season they suddenly add in these ridiculously confusing scenarios to which they don't even give a proper ending.They juggled up the storyline completely leaving me scratching my head with confusion.

I'm glad its over.
 
Re: Please suggest an english TV series

Guys...any arrested development fans in here...gosh i LOVE that show, no idea why Fox pulled the plug on it...

Some of the other one's that I have seen are:

Law / Drama

The Practice -Serious Law

Boston Legal - Drama/Comedy Law, James Spader is brilliant

Comedy :

Friends

Seinfeld

Everybody Loves Raymond

That 70's show

2.5 Men

How I Met Your Mother - NPH simply rockzz this show

Big Bang Theory - Nerdy humour

The Office - Steve Carrel, need i say more?

Its always sunny in Philadelphia -

Arrested Development

Pls suggest some other good shows on these line's, TIA!!!
 
Re: Please suggest an english TV series

^ Arrested Development is mentioned a few pages ago , it was awesome

I am currently downloading The IT Crowd and Coupling , both have 9 rating on IMdB
 
Re: Please suggest an english TV series

^^
Damn, are you serious ? :o

That guy is equivalent to Joe from FRIENDS, may be his contribution is more than that :P
 
Re: Please suggest an english TV series

Just did some searches, NPH & David Burtka are a couple ;)

Back to the topic, came here to suggest Boston Legal. Simply love the endings with Shatner and Spader on their balcony & their night overs. Should watch the show.

For the comedy slot, would like to put in the names of According to Jim & My Wife and Kids along with the other shows already mentioned. Ofcourse both these shows are nowhere near HIMYM, TBBT, Friends, Sienfield etc, but used to watch them on TV, watch Jim even now.

Prison Break hasn't been discussed a lot,atleast in the past few days. The 1st season has to be one of the best i have ever watched. The show is a must watch.

Also take a look at Legend of the Seeker, a fun and nice watch.

Re: Please suggest an english TV series

Just saw the last 2 eps of Terminator The Sarah Connor Chronicles and awwwww... too bad it's not coming back. I'd just watched an episode or 2 for Summer Glau after I'd seen Serenity and got hooked to the serial...
