I am trying to decide on which of these shows I should start watching. I know they are all good, but which one do you think I should start on.
Boardwalk Empire, Dexter, or 24

The only one I've seen episodes of is Dexter. And I liked it a lot, so I would recommend that one.

Dexter, just started the new season... still love the show.

Boardwalk Empire.
Even though I also like Dexter (haven't watched the newest season though).

Both. Picking one is damn near impossible and both are addicting. Dexter starts off faster though if you dont like wading in slowly.

If you want pure entertainment without too much intellectual challenge, watch 24 (5 seasons at least). It is brilliantly done and very addictive. I powered through all 8 seasons on netflix in like 6 months and thoroughly enjoyed myself.
The best of the shows you listed is Boardwalk Empire. It is really a masterpiece on par with the very best of serialized cable TV shows. It is as good as any theatrical release movie of recent years. Powerful and creative.
Dexter is novel and interesting for a while, but ultimately the writers get pretty lazy and fill the script up with too much bullshite. It's good, but third on your list.

Do not watch walker Texas ranger I mean 24.

I've never seen Dexter but heard good things except I've also heard it starts to fall off after a while. I love Boardwalk although I haven't had time to keep up with the current season, but the first season got me hooked pretty quickly. Seen 24 a few times and it does nothing for me

Boardwalk Empire has 3 seasons and all three are solid.
Dex has 6 or 7 seasons and some are better than others.
it really depends on how much time you want to devote to watching tv. i tend to watch shows 2-3 episodes at a time, especially around the holidays. they get addictive.
i would watch both. just watch dex when you have more time, whether its now or at a different time of year.

Dexter 1-4 are must see and should be first on your list.
Then move on to BWE, only a few seasons.
Then watch 24 because hell, it's just enjoyable yet time consuming.
After all of this, you could watch Dexter 5-the end if you'd like.

I like Dexter, 24, and Californication

Depends on your tastes
In general, BW is in another stratosphere that dexter at its absolute best could never come close to reaching.
The first season of 24 is good, second is exceptional for network tv. The rest suck

I so need to watch Dexter. So many people I know have recommended it. Since I have nothing but time on my hands (and the wife doesn't work either), we like to watch good shows. We went through around 7 seasons of Weeds in a week or two, same with The Tudors, Walking Dead...When my DVR is running at 60-70% capacity rather than having to delete stuff each week so I don't miss any tapings, it's time for a new show. Boardwal Empire is something I really, really wanted to like (love Steve Buscemi), but couldn't force myself to like it. I love Magic City though. Dexter is one of those shows that is on our list to watch. Have never heard anyone say they don't like it.

My wife just got me all 5 seasons of Chuck. Now THAT is some good TV.
