Defiance is showing some potential on Syfy.

I hear that "24" is coming back to life as a limited series.

BBC Sherlock - only 3 episodes so far but they are excellent!
BBC SciFi - surprised nobody mentioned Dr. Who. Also, Torchwood and PrimEvil (sp?).
My kid just started watching the original (1960's) Star Trek.
For older stuff, The Bob Newhart Show is funnier than you think.Shut your eyes and think of somewhere. Somewhere cold and caked with snow.

Checking in on this thread a week on the couch with the worst respiratory flu I've ever had has informed me that my DVR is lacking in talent.
I went to the usual suspects:
Showtime:
Discovered Californication a few months ago and burned through every episode, solid show cant wait till it's back.
Shameless is awesome, I just couldnt re-watch every episode I've seen 3 times over already.
Nurse Jackie has been intriguing, junkie Mrs. Soprano... OK.
House of Lies has been entertaining, especially with how much of a shitshow I know consulting is.
Homeland is the new project for the DVR.
HBO:
True Blood - used to be very entertaining, lots of sex, killing, and a decent storyline. I've heard it gets back on track this year.
Boardwalk - love this show
FX:
League, Sunny, awesome, just not on right now.
Discovery and the rest:
Love Deadliest Catch, and North America but not seeing too much else. Can't stand pawn, storage, or hoarding shows.
That being said, what am I missing out there. Broadcast TV seems to blow. I liked the Office and Community but one of those is dead and the other is on the way out.
Any recs?I still call it The Jake.

Want to drown in rain, depression and dispair? The killing (AMC) just started it's third season.
Hell on Wheel (also AMC) also starts its third season on August 3rd, sadly without Blondie. But I predict the Swede returns from the dead.

A comic book for the screen: Davinci's Demons. Tits, blood, absurd inventions, thin characters, lots of anachronism.

I started a thread about it, but no one seems to be watching it.
Orphan Black. About a chick that sees someone that looks just like her, kill herself at the train station. She assumes the girl's identity, finds out the chick was a cop, finds out they are all clones, finds out one of them is a psycho killer, and finds out they are being watched, and tested on in the middle of the night. That's about as far as I have gotten. The lead girl is pretty hot, and she like to get naked a bit. On BBC America. Watching On Demand at this point.

Saw the opening episode of The Bridge (FX): Monk for intelligent adults. So far, very good.

The Killing Season 3 is on time. That show has some of the best acting I've seen on TV in a long time.

Helps that they toned down the rain and sped up the pace; Peter Sarsgaard is spectacular as Ray.

Liked the opening episode of A low Winter Sun - very dense and complex - we'll have to work for it.

Watched "Orange is the new Black" from the folks that did "Weeds". Give it a B to B-.
Silent....but shredly.

from the foreign rolls:
Peaky Blinders - some quality actors, quality sets, hit/miss script, overproduced soundtrack. The UK people bitch about the accents.
Unsure of what to make of it:
Serangoon Road - Aussie drama. Like many oz things, good on many points, but more than just a bit off.
