I only watch about 5 or 6 shows on a regular basis. I was wanting to try out some new shows. Does anyone have any recommendations for shows that are good, but I haven't had to have watched for 3 or 4 years to understand? I heard the Shield was good, but would I have to have watched it the entire time to "get it".
So, does anyone have any recommendations for my Tivo?

Except for Seinfeld, Law and Order, and the news, same here. I almost want to buy some TV on DVD. But what's actually worth owning?

I rent series, or download them on occasion...but the last thing I recall watching was the first season of the new Dr. Who...and even that I couldn't follow (and I was trying to catch them all for Pro...heh).

Scrubs is on all the time. Same with Family Guy, Seinfeld, and Futurama. If I want to watch it, it'll be on 3 or 4 channels in a day. I do own 4400 on DVD, but I can't get into any other show as much to own it.

Some have already been mentioned, but...
The Black Donnellys
Scrubs
Heroes (people either love it or hate it)
Prison Break
ATHF
Arrested Development - I cannot recommend AD enough. Brilliant show that was cancelled too soon.
 Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

Speaking of Heroes, the show resumes with new episodes next Monday, April 23.
Wonder if they'll make action figures of Heroes characters?

Rising Stars was better when it was called "Watchmen".

I've said it before but this is a show you really need to watch from the very beginning. I just got my brother hooked on it and he also loves it. Its one of the few shows that I have to watch every couple days.
