The fly episode was very poetic. It was very deep.

That said I didn't like it much either.

It was just painful for me.

And I also cannot stand Skyler.

But other than that, such a fantastic show.

I use to love Seinfeld, but now I love Curb Your Enthusiasm. Yes, there are groans from people, but it is a far better show, extremely well written and acted. It's an acquired taste though.

As far as my all time favourites go:

Mad Men
The Sopranos
Dexter
Entourage
The Office (UK)
Extras

And others.

If it will, it won't be for a while anyway. Ten have never given Dexter preference.

I am totally addicted to Firefly, unfortunately it is one of those I keep putting in the DVD player...

As discussed on Facebook... Your right, this series is damn awesome!

Community (this is my current favourite show...love it!)

OMG.. How awesome is Community.. Started off slowish but has really become something worth watching week to week.
Sunny in Philadelphia started out really really awesome, but all of a sudden it seemed to take a really bad turn, they all yell at each other all the time and they don't seem to be the same as when they started the series.

I really like Merlin.. :oops:

Ohhh and last one...
Men behaving badly and Blackbooks (I think that is the name of it)... I always thought that one was underrated.
