Currently making my way through Star Trek: Voyager for like the 10th time, also keeping up with Game of Thrones, Arrow, The Big Bang Theory. Once Voyager is over, I'm likely going to start up Babylon 5 again as I really love that show. Also looking forward to the new season of Falling Skies in June and I need to catch up on The Walking Dead

I have a sort of cycle of TV shows (80%+ Sci-Fi) that I go through - StarGate is always the interesting one as there are 17 Seasons between SG-1, Atlantis and Universe. Takes me a good 6 months to burn through that...

I'm watching Stargate again myself! Greatly underestimated series - really good sense of humour alongside above average writing and production values.

Just made it to series 10 so there's about 150 hours of my life I'm never getting back, on to Stargate Atlantis next!

Here's a recommendation for you - the first series of Orange is the New Black was great! I'm eagerly awaiting the next series due soon I think.

Breaking Bad is about the only thing that's ever sounded appealing to me on the Sky platform, which I don't have as I can't bear the thought of giving money to the Murdochs.
I watch detective series like Line of Duty, but am particularly addicted to foreign language ones like Wallander, The Killing, The Bridge and Spiral. Inspector Montalbano was crap, but I still watched it for the scenery.
Enjoyed Orphan Black and am currently watching Suits (though it feels a slightly guilty pleasure).
Going back a while: Star Trek NG, Farscape, Lexx and, back to detective series: the one that started the trend for deliberately wobbly camerawork... NYPD Blue. The Shield was a real landmark: a brilliantly gritty series.

I also want to go through Orange Is The New Black as that has been recommended to me.

Previously, I've watched (some more than once... others more than a dozen times :|)
Star Trek: Enterprise
Star Trek: The Next Generation
Star Trek: Deep Space 9
Chuck
Community
Battlestar Galactica (not the original)
Defiance
Eureka
Firefly (shame it was cancelled :()
Friends
Homeland
How I Met Your Mother
My Wife And Kids
Red Dwarf
Suits
Two And A Half Men
Under The Dome

... I have a reasonable library...

At the moment:

Grimm
GoT
Arrow
Marvel: Agents of SHIELD
The Tomorrow People
Bones
Big Bang Theory
Elementary
Warehouse 13
Brooklyn 99

I've recorded some episodes of Intelligence, but haven't had time to watch them yet.

I tried Believe, but the "annoyingly cute kid with powers" got on my nerves too much.

Also, although it's finished it's run now, a big mention for Bluestone 42.

I hardly watch any TV, at the moment NCIS, Law & Order, Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D* and Big Bang Theory are pretty much it.




*And for the record, that piece of shit Marvel Fazer on ebay isn't mine.  :b

I would have agreed with you, if the last three episodes hadn't been, frankly, totally naff.

SPOILERS AHEAD FOR SERIES 3 OF SHERLOCK IF YOU DIDN'T WATCH THEM WHEN THEY WERE ON...




The producers obviously couldn't figure out how to get Sherlock back from the dead, so they gave us a whole load of flim-flam and no actual explanation.

The wedding stuff was boring and embarrassing and frankly silly (would someone *really* not notice they've been stabbed in the back?)

And would *ANY* sensible blackmailer not have some form of "Dead Man's Handle" setup in place such that, if someone killed them, all their information would be released?

All deeply disappointing :(

Agree, the writing this season just wasnt quite as good as the earlier ones. I think a lot of that "alternate death" stuff was a homage to the hardcore sherlock fans who have been talking like that on forums etc. keeps them guessing. Unfortunately, for joe public like us, it was just a bit alienating.
