The lady fucking that Hispanic drug dealer competitor (that wanted to beat her ass) in the alley was a little unbelievable though. :unsure:
My favorite American shows:
CSI
CSI: Miami
The Shield
The Sopranos
Battlestar Galactica
Lost
Invasion
Threshold
Medium
Real Time With Bill Maher
Surface
Monk
The Dead Zone
Nip/Tuck
House
The Wire
Weeds
Stargate SG-1
Stargate Atlantis
60 Minutes
and more...
Bones and Ghost Whisperer suck. Ghost Whisperer is a more family oriented severe Medium rip-off. I never like Jennifer Love Hewitt.
My favorite British shows
Extras
Dr. Who

I think the show risks going down the Scrubs route of absurdity but we'll see, I like the fact that none of the main characters seem to suffer from any morals. Even the lead seems pretty heartless getting the college kids to deal for her...

Sadly I don't watch Scrubs or any sitcoms anymore. :(
I hope Weeds doesn't go there. The show is highly different. It's like Desperate Housewives....on weed. :lookaroun
Many shows like The Shield are in the moral toilet nowadays. It gives it more shock value.
In The Shield, Anthony Anderson shoots a tied up/mouth taped 14 year-old girl dead if front 2 dirty cops (main characters btw) with those cops guns, tells the cops that are under his boot that if they say anything that their precinct will get a call advising where to locate a burnt up 14 year-old girl(that will have those cops cards laying next to her), and also tells them, "The next time I tell you to suck my dick I want you to say...'Do you want your balls licked too'". :O

Haven't watched The Shield since series one, I loved that series but just haven't gotten around to watching anymore. I think it was probably the moral ambivalence of the characters in that as well that I liked, that's probably a reason I don't get on with CSI.
What was that show with each episode split between different viewpoints of its central characters (policeman, lawyer, poltician, etc)? I liked that as well, was shown around the same time on Channel 5 for us Uk'ians.

Re: A Message To All Britons
So, the mini-series of Battlestar Galactica ... I watched a three hour long (omfg, it was tedious) episode, is that the mini-series merged for easier downloading? I think it must be.
Glad to hear it gets better, I'm going to stick with it 'cos Mulder said it's quality.
Btw, I'm going to see Serenity on Thursday :happy:

Yup, right now we are midway through the second season.
Re: A Message To All Britons
Thanks.
I had noticed that the second series is underway, which is good because by the time I've gotten around to watching all of the eps in the 1st series, the second one will be finished.
I hate waiting a whole week for the next one - Lost is killing me.
