Best current TV shows
« on: July 11, 2012, 01:05:24 PM »
I watch mostly sports & rarely any network TV. But I'm into a bunch of cable shows.  Here is how I rate them:

1) Breaking Bad
2) Dexter
3) Mad Men
4) Sons of Anarchy

I know a few of you are big fans of "Justified". I haven't caught up yet & think I would enjoy it.

Yes, I also watch the Big Bang Theory and Top Gear (American). I forgot about those ones. Probably because their season is over and won't start back up till September. I also like Justified.

I have an antennae and no cable for my TV, so I get all of 13 channels  :rofl:  I've watching the Olympic Trials and Big Bang Theory lately. 

If I had cable I would watch The Deadliest Catch, Mythbusters, True Blood, and probably any number of awesome shows.  As it is, I stream all sorts of things through Amazon Prime when I have time.  I'm more of a reader than a TV watcher though.
