TV Shows Need a new TV show - recommendations?

Hey everyone,

I'm after some new TV to watch, hoping for some suggestions. My favourite recent TV shows have been (in approx. descending order of preference):

How I Met Your Mother
Flight of the Conchords
The Office (US)
Fringe
Heroes
Lost
House

I've tried and not really liked:

24
Dexter
Battlestar

Any recommendations? I'm particularly in the mood for some comedy, really.

Cheers!
AH

 

Have a look at Chuck. Season 2 has just finished in america.

It is brilliant and very funny, especially if you are slightly geeky (there are a lot of computer/game references etc!)

 

NCIS...if you can get it

 

Life.
I watched both two series in two days.

 

big bang theory!

 

NCIS is by far my favourite TV programme go get it.

Also +1 for Chuck, i never fancied S1 from the ads but the wife has been watching it and its quite good.

 

Haha, I knew I'd missed a couple - already a big fan of Chuck and the Big Bang Theory, so I'm optimistic about the rest of the recommendations! I'll take a look at NCIS and Life. Cheers!

 

If your in the mood for Comedy, look up 'The Inbetweeners' - if your looking for something to buy you can sample a few episodes on 4od beforehand

 

Yep, seen that too - BUS ******S!

 

... I think you know what's behind those stars. Don't censor me bit-tech!

 

Damages is excellent. Or you could re-watch (I've got to assume you've seen it already because if not WHY!!!!???) Band of Brothers. Or grab Peep Show, which I just started re-watching and had forgotten the utter genius hilarity of.

 

try Arrested Development for some different comedy.

 

QFT

Plus Reaper if it comes back.

 

Southpark. All of it, in one sitting.

 

I'm also looking for something new, just watched all of Battlestar in pretty much one go, and now I'm sad as it's all over... All i'm kinda feeling at the moment is getting copies of Star Trek (Voy, TNG and DS9 not TOS or Phase II)

Currently getting season 2 of chuck and reaper has come to a dead end for some stupid reason. Same with big bang theory... need moar geeky stuff...

at this rate I'm just gonna have to abuse the interpipes with lots and lots of SG1

 

lie to me. good show just came on over here.
Chuck is pretty good this season (i think we are half way through)

 

Heyy, a Kiwi - I'm moving out there for a year in October. What's Christchurch like?!

 

Burn notice and In Plain Sight are pretty good (they air on USA)

Royal Pains (only one episode out so far) was also quite good.

CSI: Las Vegas and CSI: NY (I avoid CSI: Miami like the plague)

If you look at NCIS, make sure it is the original one, not the new "NCIS: Los Angeles" that they are rolling out this fall.

Two and a Half Men is always good for a laugh as well.

My $0.02

 

Best city in NZ. (am an aucklander, but spend a lot of time in the south.) ready for the cold? even in summer it can get quite cold at night.

oh yeah, burn notice is quite good as well. i use to watch Eureka when i got a chance back when it was airing. Generation kill, by HBO.

 

Something old - Doctor Who, The Prisoner, The Twilight Zone.
All better than 99% of anything on now.
