Love Big Bang Theory at the moment, Sheldon just gets better!
Doctor who is great too

mostly though we've been watching Prison Break on DVD, we missed it on telly and a mate lent me the first season... I was sceptical but really got into it and in about 2 months we've on the third season!

oh and the World Cup too!

There is nothing Hopeless about being addicted to Supernatural, it has become the Buffy/Angel replacement that i needed. The dynamic between Sam and Dean is awesome, i really buy into the them being brothers.
Its a shame this series is nearly over and there will only be one more after it.

Dean:It's like we got a contract on us. You think it's 'cause we're so awesome? I think it's 'cause it's we're so awesome.

Maybe I've missed these in all these posts, but I'm surprised three of my favorite series of all time (all British) don't appear more often:

1. The Prisoner (original version) (one of the best things ever done on TV in any country)

2. "The Singing Detective" (Maybe the best TV show ever produced, period)

3. "I, Claudius" (One of the best acted series of all time)

I quite enjoy watching Mock the Week and Have I Got news for You, these sort of comedy programmes are some of my favourite.

He did make the right decision when he left, but MTW's become a very chummy show where the guests don't get a look-in. It's like the regulars are trying to over compensate for Frankie's absence.

my favourite T.V series is The Office The Daily Show .I love when people are sarcastic and can keep a straight face and everything. I think it's hillarious. And I love the Daily Show, because it is about politics, but in an interesting sort of way.
 
Since I live in the middle of Europe and don't BBC/ITV etc these are older series I have on DVD; good for a nice evening in with a bottle of wine and some nibbles!!

Blackadder
Angel
Babylon 5
Crusade
Andromeda
Star Trek (original series)
Deep Space Nine
Mutant X
Bones
Murder Rooms
Adam Adamant
Special Branch
Strange Report
Yes Minister/Prime Minister
Blackadder
Murder One
