I'm running out of shows to download and watch. I really hate summer TV. Can you guys give some suggestions.

Here are some that I'm done with or at least until new episodes come out.

I'm on 3rd Season of Six Feet Under and am underwhelmed.

Watched Swamp People season one and now starting season two. Not that great.

Others that I have watched to completion:
Deadwood-Loved it
Rome-Loved it
Babylon 5-Loved it
The Wire-Loved it
The Shield-Loved it
Breaking bad-Loved it
United States of Tara- Didn't finish and didn't like it.
Battlestar Gallactica-Liked it
Dr. Who-Liked it
Whale Wars-Funniest Show on TV, those hippies are idiots. I have laughed harder at this show than any show I've ever watched.
Weeds-Was good for the first few years then I dumped it.
True Blood-Like it.
Entourage-Liked it.
Big Love-Liked it.
Dexter-Loved it.
Game of Thrones-Loved it.
Band of Brothers-Awesome.
Pacific-Very good.
The Walking Dead-Excellent.
The Killing-Good but a bit slow.

I think that's about it.

Is that a comedy? I've heard of it but never watched it.

Oops forgot the Sopranos and Lost. I really liked both of them. I haven't watched Arrested Development. Good call there, I've heard it's good.

Watch Arrested Development, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and get started on Modern Family. You won't be disappointed.

Just started Arrested Development on Netflix. I'd recommend it. Easy to get into.

OK, I'll start off with Arrested Development and see how it goes. I'll try the others suggested too.

Thanks.

I agreed with most of your ratings, but Six Feet Under is my favorite show, just above Babylon 5. I hope you soldier through it and reflect back on it as a whole. The finale is worth seeing.

Men of a Certain Age is pretty good but you will appreciate it more if you are over 40.

I loved Detroit 187 but it got canceled after just one season. I thought it was almost as good as NYPD Blue. They filmed it all in Detroit so it appeared more realistic and grittier than most cops shows.

Didn't see Spartacus on your list. That is def one to watch. Unless you don't like either violence or nudity or sex in every scene(sometimes all 3 in the same scene).

That's my kind of TV show.
