Dramas, eh..?
24, Six Feet Under, House, ER and Monk all come highly recommended from me.
I've tried 24, House and ER but they're just not me. Six Feet Under is one that've that been trying to see for awhile from the beginning so it's good you reminded me. Never heard of Monk but i'll give it a try. What channel is it on?
Some drama recommendations...
The Sopranos
NYPD Blue
Deadwood
Sports Night
The West Wing
Band Of Brothers
Freaks And Geeks
Auf Wiedersehen, Pet
Sports Night and Freaks abd Geeks look interesting but will be hard to see in the UK. Maybe i could catch Auf Wiedersehen, Pet from the start somewhere.
Monk is on the USA Network in the US.
Another recommendation - Gilmore Girls. Don't let the title or premise fool you, it's superb.
Also try Boston Legal if you like, or want to try out, legal shows.
I've never heard of either show. I'll look out for them to give them a try. Cheers for your recommendations.
Ah, the brilliant Charlie Brooker's Screenwipe is present!
Have you been wathcing the show long? I don't really agree with his enthusiastic reviews of some shows, but it's the way he does it that's so interesting and I love his reports on television, especially the last episode.
Yeah, his presentation is simultaneously hilarious and informative.
I only started watching when the current series started - but I've since downloaded and watched all of the past episodes too!
Where did you download the episodes from? I haven't seen the first series.
