    Wondering what new TV shows I should get into. Preferably ones that are out on DVD or I can download. Some shows that I love are-

    LOST
    Entourage
    Mad Men
    Sopranos
    Seinfeld

    Thought you geeks might point me in the right direction.

    Breaking Bad.

    IMO, the best show on TV right now.

    Are you going to offer to buy someone lunch if they come over and change the channel on TV for you like you did the on the basketball hoop?

    "Come over, dig a hole for me, put the pole in and fill hole with cement and I'll buy you lunch!"

    LMAO! And you call us nerds. :biglaugh::biglaugh:

    Arrested Development.


    Then watch Curb Your Enthusiasm.

    For dramatic shows, I'll agree with Breaking Bad.

    Definitely Arrested Development. Flight of the Conchords. Twin Peaks, for an old one thrown in there Have to agree with Wook on WKRP. I just finished season 3 of weeds. First two are pretty good. Getting started on the 4th, getting a little over the top.

    One of the most underrated TV shows:

    Freaks and Geeks

    Superbad was the rated-R version of this show.

    Oh yeah! One of my favorites. I watch it on DVD about once a year.

    Almost forgot--

    Dexter and Californication are both good, too.

    And you used to call yourself Hispanic...

    So I hear that the NBA is switching over to Ignite in a couple of years. That is going to suck for you.

    Alias (the first two seasons are awesome -- at some point it jumps the shark)

    Starblazers if you want some old cheesy anime from back in the day

    I still need to get around to watching this. Literally every person I've talked to about it says it's amazing.
