Recommend a Television Series for Jem to Watch in Bed

[tomskerous]

The box set of 'Absolutely' is well worth the time and money. Pete Baikie has finally grown into his face, thankfully.

Other than that...
Coupling
The Prisoner
A Bit of Fry and Laurie
Charlie and Lola

[Rick]

Hippies or Spaced? basically anything with Simon Pegg

[gr8gonzo]

Ooo, The Prisoner!  I bought that box set for my Father-in-Law a couple of Christmasas ago.  Think I need to borrow it.

i agree with ChrisX. I'm quite enjoying heroes, though i feel that the plot jumped off a cliff a while back.

House is awesome..

I would personally recommend "Dexter"
Absolutely brilliant show..

However don't watch it with the kids...it's about a serial killer who's also a blood splatter analyst for the LAPD...

Sounds random, it is, but also one of the best shows i've ever seen!

Agree about Dexter one of my faves but he works for the Miami Metro police department not LA

I thought that the 3rd series of Dexter had lost it a bit but then I mainlined the most recent 3 episodes and have to say that it's back up to speed again.

Must see:

Mad Men - Advertising agency in the 60s, beautifully filmed and a real contrast to the jump cut MTV stylings of most modern series'

Friday Night Lights - You don't have to get American football ( I sure don't). Jut enjoy one of the best ensemble dramas around.

Must Must See:

True Blood - Horrifyingly addictive and the closest I've seen to porn on TV. I've bought (and read) 8 books off the back of this series, never mind the 3 albums I had to get from itunes. Vampires are now seriously cool.

And Black Books because a) Dylan Moran is ... well, Dylan Moran and b) Bill Bailey just IS.

Currently I'm enjoying:

House
Heroes
Grey's Anatomy
The Shield
Prison Break
Dexter
How I Met Your Mother
The Sarah Connor Chronicles
CSI & CSI NY
NCIS
My Own Worst Enemy (Christian Slater plays a secret agent who's had a 2nd personality implanted in his brain that he doesn't know about till things start going wrong)

I've been watching the new Knight Rider too but I can't for the life of me think why :roll:

[Melmo]

My top shows:

Battlestar Galactica (remake)
Buffy
Hancock's Half Hour
Alias series 1,2,3 (4 and 5 are CRAP)
Futurama

Not a top show but you can get Tru Calling cheap and it's good fun in a Quantum Leap kind of way

Hear hears for:
Lost
Coupling
Black Books
The Prisoner
Dexter
The Sarah Connor Chronicles goes through patches of being good...the s1 finale was awesome

A boo for Heroes. After a good first season, they do to themselves what a recent South Park episode showed Lucas and Spielberg doing to Indy.

My Own Worst Enemy (Christian Slater plays a secret agent who's had a 2nd personality implanted in his brain that he doesn't know about till things start going wrong)
 

Don't get too into it, it just got cancelled.

A series that I have on DVD and thoroughly enjoy is Saxondale which is just brilliantly observed and has the progtastic Focus on the theme music and is great when you just want something funny but light to watch.
