Any TV Show To Recommend

[Eejit]

Hm, always had a bit of interest in checking out The West Wing... but, I'm not that politically savvy.

You will be. You will be.

That's okay. Being Swedish I'm pretty shite at how things work in America and I still enjoyed the show greatly. It teaches you a lot, too.

EDIT: As Eejit so sneakily ninja'd me.

 

[Bar.Calhoun]

this bar calhoun guy is a ****ing idiot and needs banning immediately. thats my favourite tv show

Just because the actor is a "sexfrick", I should be banned?
It's a fact, not my opinion!

Is there a show that is "like" 24?

 

[Lucid]

Huh, I'll check it out then.
I love me some Martin Sheen.

No but there's a spin-off in the works called "48".

[Harryz]

If your looking for a police/detective storyline, I think your best bet is Dexter or The Wire.

Insano won this thread when he suggested The Wire.

Also, Chuck is a lot of fun.

 

[Eejit]

Sparta lost this thread when he rated The Wire over The West Wing.

I liked Jericho, but it's cancelled now:hmph:

Watch 24, Michelle Forbes is there, fun to see the actress how voices Mossman

 

[Barnz]

Also, Chuck is a lot of fun.

More like "oh hey, we love and play call of duty" every day. They need to stop lame ads.

She's in a few eps of Battlestar Galactica, too.

Oh, yes. Brilliant show, fantastic scripts, great direction- and the acting, oh my word it was downright astonishing! I mean the acting, my god, every single one of those brilliant actors were perfect for their roles! I mean honestly, could they have picked any two people more perfect for the lead roles?

No, you lost the thread when you rated anything over The Wire.

Not that I have anything against The West Wing, but the standard criteria for review television shows amongst television according to Variety is the following:

Is the TV show in question as good as The Wire?

If Yes: Nothing's better than The Wire, so that's a lie.
If No: Well that slots it in with every other show that isn't The Wire, so nothing new there.

This is fact. Here is my source.

Also, 30 Rock is hilarious and I've only ever seen a handful of episodes of The West Wing. Seems like a good show.

 

[AJ Rimmer]

Question: Does The Wire contain the character of Toby Ziegler? No? Then it isn't as good as the West Wing, thank you.
