Did you start with the first episode?

I think it is one of the best shows on TV at the moment.

Yup, just watched the first episode last night.
I'll stick with it so.

I am glad. It takes a little bit to get going, but you will find it odd how much you will end up liking a Serial Killer...

Give it a few more episodes and let me know what you think.

Now someone told me the same for the show Mad Men, but honestly I couldn't get past episode 3 of that show.

Some of them already game. There's a podcast on Wizard's site of them playing D&D, pretty sure that's not the only thing they are into.

That I own on dvd...

House
Full Metal Alchemist (brotherhood and original)



Course ever since Netflix I stopped buying DVD's

I watch a lot of TV, its kinda my past time really.

Supernatural (Not a guilty pleasure, I love this show. The background to it and when they make fun of themselves)
Bones
Castle
Community
Dexter
Eureka
House
How I Met Your Mother
Justified
Rescue Me
Rules of Engagement
Sanctuary
Shameless (Showtime Remake, so good)
Sons of Anarchy
The Glades
The Walking Dead
True Blood
Warehouse 13
Weeds

New Stuff I am watching would be:
A Game of Thrones
Farscape (I know, not new but I am just now getting into it)
Prison Break (Again, not new. But getting into it now)

Avatar: The Last Airbender - A kid's show, but still a damn good series. Too bad the movie was terrible. It was the movie, in fact, that got me watching the cartoon...so I guess it wasn't a *complete* waste of an afternoon.

Star Trek: DS9 - I'm a huge trek fan, but that's my favorite of the lot. Great characters, great stories, great ending. Every time I finish watching a "Ferengi episode" I'm always in a better mood than when I started.

Star Trek Voyager - It gets a lot of hate, but it makes for great background noise. (I don't list TNG because I've seen every episode like 420395 times and there are only a few that I'll sit down and watch these days).

Batman Beyond - Watched it religiously as a kid, and it still holds up.

Boston Legal - Two words are all you need: "Denny Crane"

American Chopper - There was a stretch there where I think I watched the entire series all the way through on TV. Don't ask me why...I just couldn't stop. Guess it goes into the guilty pleasure category.

Yay! Another Trekkie lol.

I didn't count any of the Treks on my list, as I've not watched any in years and years. I watched all TOS, all TNG, most of DS9 and some of Voyager. Not seen a single episode of Enterprise.

Still love the fluff of the Trek Universe. Don't have my Encyclopedia any more, but I can see my Klingon Dictionary on the shelf from here, haha!!

You fight for our right to watch Supernatural and enjoy it without it having to be a guilty pleasure!!!!

Agreed, I friggin love Dexter. Its such a good show. Though personally, Id say that Breaking Bad gives it a run for its money. I always was curious about MadMen and I know no one that watches it. So Im kindda hoping they replay the whole season or 2 however many they have, so I can catch it

I am do embarrassed to say this....but Jersey Shore

Yeah,I attribute much of the success of "reality shows" to peoples vouyeristic tendencies ...hell,I myself get a huge kick out of the shows featuring Gordan Ramsey (screaming British Chefs FTW).
But when it comes to shows like Jersey Shore and such,I pass...if I want to see hot drunk chicks fight and fuss...I go down to the bar.

definitely, although what always makes me laugh is that Gordon Ramsay isnt like that AT ALL, he is the nicest bloke you have ever met, but its his character so he does it (and does it well i might add).
If i didnt have exams right now, i would be down the bar doing the same thing (uni FTW )

The DVD set is too expensive right now, but I love MASH and Hogan's Heros.

A DVD set that I own is Archer, greatest cartoon ever.

Hell yeah.

The thing is, working for a guy like that is (to me at least) working for a guy like that and all of the stuff you'd learn is completely worth getting screamed at.
