I posted a similar question about a year & a half ago and got some great suggestions. From the suggestions in that thread I watched Supernatural, Workaholics, & SG-1. The shows I listed in the title are other suggestions that were made. I am open to anything though. Thanks in advance!

eta:
Here is the list of shows I've watched with my favorites near the top.

Wire
Sopranos
Fringe
Mad Men
Breaking Bad
Boardwalk Empire
Game of Thrones
Supernatural
Battlestar Gallatica
Walking Dead
Lost
Downton Abbey
Dexter
Homeland
Arrested Development
Modern Family
Parks and Recreation
Pysch
Sons of Anarchy
Stargate SG1
Shield
Its Always Sunny
Workaholics
Californication
Friday Night Lights
Mentalist
East Bound and Down
Six Feet Under
House
Californication
Entourage
How I Met Your Mother
Big Bang Theory
The Tudors
The Office
CSI
Nip/Tuck
Weeds

Making this list is kinda depressing. Maybe I should get out more often.

Gotta recommend Justified, there, Larry.

Though, to be fair, I haven't seen the other ones except a few eps of Bones here and there.

I like Justified...A lot of people really like West Wing. I haven't seen much of it.

Justified. Season 1 is underrated on this board and really picks up steam in the second half, finds its "voice" so to speak.

Deadwood is an all-time great and relatively short series with only three seasons.

The only one that you are asking about that I have watched is Justified and it is awesome. Highly recommended.

Definitely looking like Justified is the winner. Anyone know of a legal way to stream it? It isn't on netflix, Hulu, or Directv OnDemand. I only see it for sale on Amazon. I don't mind buying it if it is worth it, but I prefer free.

West Wing is my favorite series of all time.

Justified and Deadwood rank pretty high as well.

Deadwood, and for me it's not even close. Once you're done with that, Justified.

The first four seasons are as good as television gets. The writing is phenomenal...Great characters, acting, story lines. It falls off a little bit in the 5th season and picks back up in the 6th and finishes strong in the 7th and final season. Anyone i have ever recommended the show to has absolutely loved it and could not get enough.






and of course it has Gus, before he was Gus

West Wing unless you are pretty far right politically, then you might not enjoy it.

West Wing is the best of those options.
