I've never watched Seinfield. For some reason, it was never that big in the UK.

The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
Breaking Bad is solid.
Lost is long over and I never watched a single episode until after it was over, but I watched all of the seasons in about 4 weeks after I started. I liked it a lot.
Yeah I really want to see Curb Your Enthusiasm but I've never had HBO and I don't know anyone who has it and I certainly can't afford to buy it

I have just finished watching the premiere season of Game of Thrones.
So Good!
HBO medieval themed show. Just like many other HBO shows (Sopranos, Boardwalk Empire etc), Game of Thrones doesn't pull any punches with its violence, language, sex etc.
I can't wait for season two next year.
I finished watching it a few weeks ago, and loved it. I went out and bought the book the next day and can happily inform you its better than the series - although the series did follow very very closely with the book.
I can't wait for the next series
For fans of British humour I recommend:
Green Wing
Black Books
Father Ted
Misfits
The Inbetweeners
Outnumbered
I don't really watch a lot of dramas, any other series I get into tends to be US scifi type stuff like Buffy, American Gothic, Carnivale and Supernatural. However, I finally started watching the Deadwood boxset I was bought for Christmas and it is amazing!! If you have a bit of a thing for the Wild West, like I do, then you will LOVE it!
I am not listening.
I must live some time, no?
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Father Ted = TOPŹ!!!!!!!
I LOVE Father Ted! I just finished watching the entire series on DVD a week or so ago, actually. For me, the series was solely worth watching for Father Dougal aloneThere are so many good quotes...
Ted: "Well, I called the doctor. He's definitely dead. The not breathing was a good sign, but the stopped heart gave it away."
Dougal: "Are you sure, Ted? That happened to my uncle once....his heart stopped beating for a whole week and he survived!"
Ted: "Really?"
Dougal: "Emm.....no. Now that I think about it, he died. Sorry."
Rent it, or you can probably find it to download somewhere. Well worth it. It's one of my favorites.
And is it weird with how much I love Curb, that I've never seen Seinfeld?
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
You take that back.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
Agreed, Dougal is comedy gold...although in the episode where the Bishop comes to visit, Father Jack takes the biscuit!
Which episode with the Bishop? My personal favorite is the one after the football game, and a certain forfeit Ted has to accomplish, with photo documentation...
or are you referring to the episode with the quotes "That would be an ecumenical matter..." and "Sorry about that, Bishop Brennan. Will it still be a class 2 relic after they, you know...remove it?"
Ahahaaa!! Both come to think of it! Infact I was thinking of a combination of the dare and the phrases that Jack was coached to say
Hmm, never did watch Father Ted when it was on. Saw one or two eps round a mate's house, but I need to watch more eps, methinks.
Oh, and for more classic British comedy, another show I like to think of as a masterpiece in surrealism: Snuff Box. Only one series made, as it was put on so late at the time of broadcast, but it was brilliant. Nothing short of being fucking bizzare genius. I watched some Monty Python afterwards, but everything I've seen so far hasn't quite matched the brilliance of Snuff Box yet. Recommended to anyone who's a fan of black humour or just fucking weird-arsed comedy.
Also off your list Lisa is Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. That show just gets better with age. Quotable and funny as fuck! "You just can't stand it, can you Dag? You just can't stand it that this time...I got the girl!"
And what everybody should be watching in 4 days? The second half of Doctor Who: Series 6, of course! Anyone who's not interested, I've got 3 words for ya:
Let's.
Kill.
Hitler.
With an awesome title like that, how could you not want to watch this show?!?

Unfortunatly not, candy. I'll look for it on youtube later.

And regarding Father Ted: it's not so much that i never got into it as that I didn't have much of a chance to: I never truly caught it when it was on. I'm sure i'd enjoy it though if i started watching it: I greatly enjoyed Black Books and The IT Crowd, after all!

You know, I heard that was a good show? Do you really recommend me checking it out, though? Are you sure it'll be my thing?Hmm, never did watch Father Ted when it was on. Saw one or two eps round a mate's house, but I need to watch more eps, methinks.

I found my way back here again!!
Not long till new WHO!!!!
So I'm a little bit late on the game responding to this, but ... yay! I'm glad you're watching Deadwood. I seem to recall something about Lovejoy and me telling you about Deadwood like three years ago.
A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.
There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
Yeah, I'm finally watching the 2nd season of Deadwood myself, Hannah. (Well, when I'm not watching Doctor Who or Supernatural, the latter of which I've just started to check out. As a fan of monsters and cliches when they're done with a slight knowing wink to the audience, this is right up my street!) Still weird to think of Lovejoy swearing so fucking much all the fucking time, then I watch the show and Ian McShane just dominates the role so well I just forget about it.

I tried to watch Lovejoy after I watched Deadwood and I couldn't get into it after watching Ian McShane as Swearingen. It was too weird. Deadwood is one of my all time favorite series.
