Berk Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 I second Twin Peaks. It's set in a beautiful environment with lots of mountains and forests, watching it is soothing, most people in it are warm and kind, almost too perfect, love the coffee jokes. It's pretty absurdistic and sometimes goofy as well, that's what makes it one of the best shows out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kokoon Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 i'm a few episodes from end of The Wire myself... it's really one of the best series i've seen. so far, my favorite series is Sopranos, then second place is a tie between Deadwood and The Wire. Twin Peaks comes a close third. so, definitely check out Sopranos, Deadwood and Twin Peaks. Sopranos is simply perfect. every single season, every single episode, pure perfection. every episode is like a good movie. Deadwood is also fantastic. such a shame they cancelled it, i just can't wrap my head around the fact that somebody pulled the plug on such a great tv show. Twin Peaks is a real classic, deserves all the praise. Some episodes in the second season drag a bit for me, that's why i still haven't finished it yet. if you want comedy, Trailer Park Boys is really special, i love it. might need a few episodes to get into though. oh, and arrested development is shit. yep, it's shit. don't watch it, it'll hurt your brain.

Guest Rambo Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 just started watching series 5 of 24 last night. I love the way Jack just quietly knocks someone unconscious by punching them in the mouth and then steals a helicopter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Yeah Trailer Park Boys. And for more insane canadians, Kenny vs Spenny. Dexter, the first season was really good, then it started to get a bit hit-and-miss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mr Salads Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Sopranos is the answer. Im not going to get into the whole Wire vs Sopranos debate, but in my opinion Sopranos is still superior. I dont know if I could say the same thing. I think the sopranos is a way more deeply flawed show that doesnt know what to do with loose ends. Bunch of dead end story lines that drop you off in the middle of nowhere. That got very frustrating and very old, quick. Sorry but I just cant endorse it with the same enthusiasm. I am slightly intrigued by the praise battlestar galactica has received. Wouldnt mind venturing into that territory at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awepittance Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 Breaking Bad has been my semi replacement for the Wire its the only modern show i can say has gone to similar heights Rubin, Babar and Benedict say watch it so go do it! its written and created by the guy who imo wrote some of the best X-files episodes he also wrote some odd movies that weren't really executed all that well by partially competent directors. he wrote that movie Hancock he also wrote this odd one called Home Fries that i actually really enjoyed with Luke Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thehauntingsoul Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Yeah Trailer Park Boys. And for more insane canadians, Kenny vs Spenny. Dexter, the first season was really good, then it started to get a bit hit-and-miss this. Kenny vs Spenny is fucking hilarious and fantastically entertaining all the way through. They have wrapped up 5 seasons so far and it just gets more extreme and more hilarious as time goes by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Robbie: the reason Trailer Park Boys works so well is cause it's so very true to life. And definitely recommend Entourage again...fucking great.

Guest zaphod Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 sopranos, seriously. it finished incredibly strong; some of the best writing on a television show was in that last season. unlike the wire, i actually go back and watch episodes of the sopranos. the writing is stronger, the show is simply more entertaining and relatable than the wire ever was.
