I would suggest something that isn't "crackfic written by 13 year old girls who watch Dr Who", aka Torchwood.

There is a new season of Burn Notice.  Three episodes out.  The Killing is the latest series from AMC, who brought us Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Rubicon and The Walking Dead, all worth watching if you haven't seen them yet.

Hey, I love me some Torchwood. K?

I also don't care how gay John Barrowman is, I want to have his babies. Ever heard him sing?  :aaa:

already seen Burn Notice. I'll check some of the other suggestions though, even though I didn't like Breaking Bad that much (it was great, actually, but it just really gets me down for some reason).

I gave up on Breaking Bad after getting about 2/3 of the way through the first season.

Does it get any less completely awful after that? People sure do seem to like it.

There's good news tonight.  And bad news.  First, the bad news: there is no good news.  Now, the good news: you don't have to listen to the bad news.

No it gets worse and worse. And then it gets worse :)

Have you watched NCIS at all?

I can't help it, I have an addiction [when I have access to a television]. :(

If you are ever up for a Comedy...check out Get Him To The Greek. I just about literally Laughed during the ENTIRE movie.

Caught Torchwood last night.  Liked it.  Decent intro/recap for new viewers, which they kinda had to do, considering not just new network, but whole new country.  Creepy effects (going right for the gross-out, on occasion).

If Luna was a furry, she'd sex humans and scream "BEASTIALITY!" at the top of her lungs at inopportune times.

I like the Luna one. She is a good one.

I second the Barrowman and Harkness love.  I haven't seen any Torchwood though; seen Captain Jack on Doctor Who.

It's just that ... it was a lot of recap/intro and not much actual happenings except for people not dying. Which we already knew about from the teasers.

O but I just checked this season will have 10 weekly episodes, okay I thought it was going to be another really short run like Dr Who. Meh well I guess they can afford to waste an episode on recap and intro bullshit.

Whoa, new torchwood!

If you need something to watch, there's a new season of Futurama airing also.

Triple Zero

ok i'll keep that in mind, haven't watched new Futuramas in ages, so I guess I'm already a few seasons behind :)

(btw just checking you are aware that there's been a new run of 7 Dr Who eps from 23 april to 4th june right? they're much better than the previous run. also, scheduled to continue in September with an ep called Let's kill Hitler :lol:)

Yeah, I knew that, but only because I check regularly.

It's hard keeping track of TV shows when you rarely actually watch TV.
