I’m running out of good TV shows to check out. I need some of T-Nation’s recommendations. Especially good recommendations would be lesser known shows from Canada and the UK.
Some of my favorites are as follows…
Trailer Park Boys
BSG
Weeds
Curb
The Wire
Office
Tudors
Dexter
etc…
Supernatural
Smallville
Lost
the Wire
CSI (all except New York)
House (best show on tv in my opinion)
Family Guy
24
These are all on dvd so I may be missing out on something showing right now.
I have watched Dexter (the first season) and thought it was decent…even though I think the actress who plays his sister does that character too awkward and clueless.

I’m only on disk one of Dexter, but my friend and I were both saying today how we don’t like his sister at all. She seems like she’s gasping for air or swallowing when she talking. Like she’s always about to cry. Definitely the weak link so far.

By the end of the season, I figured they chose her on purpose for that reason…because who else could be that close to their sibling yet so clueless to who/what her brother really is?
I still don’t like her though…and I think the black guy’s character is too damn flat. There is no back-story to him. He is like “generic-black-cop”.

he gets more of a story second season, well not much but you get some back drop. I think second season is better also.

You might like season two of Dexter then because Doakes (however you spell the big black cop’s name) is the main focus of the season. It’s pretty epic actually.

When it comes out, I’ll get it then. Maybe they will kill his sister off too.
Don’t tell me if they do/don’t. That’s the main reason I would get it.

Isn’t Season 2 about to come out on DVD? I need to hurry up and finish Season 1.
Second half of this season’s South Park was kinda weak, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that House will maintain (but, seriously, casting director…Kumar?!? And Amber was a shit character, too.)…
FWIW, I think Dexter’s sister came off better in season 2. I think she got a little more of a personality the second time around.
