1. Arrested Development 2. The Shield 3. Breaking Bad 4. Peep Show 5. Workaholics maybe not really my definitive top 5 but these came to mind first.
Pushing Daisies. Someone needs to make a movie to wrap up the story. Trailer Park Boys. I heard/read a new season is in pre production. Stromberg. German version of the Office. the Mighty Boosh. "I'm old Greg." Some gems are the old New Zealand tv shows. Like Moon TV, which produced faux docu-dramas like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGetQ-c8_zM And Police 10/7, which is like Cops, but with less beatings and chases. Captured some of the most memorable scenes in NZ television history: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA5zh6QNj2c My favourite tv show is Back Of The Y Masterpiece Television. Similar in some ways to the comedy style of the Young Ones, if they did sketches. But it's shit. Probably the worst tv show ever made. This is an especially homo-suggestive shit filled sketch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38734cah8Mw
i like watching 48hrs and Dateline for the murder mysteries TV shows no longer on Deadwood Law and Order Criminal Intent Det.Goren The Wire Strangers with candy X Files
Seinfeld, The Daily Show, Colbert Report, Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman, Jeopardy Why doesn't anyone watch Seinfeld anymore? Sure, they're all reruns but that shit never gets old. Best show of all time
Breaking bad, arrested development, the office until Mike left. Maybe a season after. Now it's so bad...
