Archer

Because it makes me laugh with its terrible, raunchy humor.

Scorpio



I love Archer too because of the raunchy comedy. Ive been so into Dexter lately that I forgot all about Archer. I have seen all the episodes available on Netflix so I am patiently awaiting new ones.

Also, a tv show that should be checked out: Lilyhammer.

It is available on Netflix and is about a mobster from the United States who is in hiding temporarily in Norway. Very funny.

1. Fresh Prince of Belair. It's funny! It's something I used to watch all the time in my younger days. It has some of my favorite actors/actresses in it. And it plays with a lot of satires & real life issues that people really do go through. Although the show is mostly comedy, a lot of the episodes give powerful messages.

Oh & I'm an Aquarian

2. My new favorite show is Scandal! Omg I'm hooked! It's the only tv show that can keep my full undivided attention every single episode. There's never a dull moment! I love the acting talent in it & I love the writer's/director's imagination that comes alive in the episodes. There is something so unrealistically realistic about that show lol

I have several:

American Horror Story: I like them all but Coven is my favorite. It is well written with suspense, mystery, sex, intrigue, paranormal, history, humor -- all the elements.

The Walking Dead: It is has good characterization and has a lot to say about society and survival.

Game of Thrones: It is just a dang good story!

Masters of Sex: It is so fun to observe the capricornish ways, words and actions of Bill Masters. Plus it's a well written story based on truth.

I do like Masters of Sex however Dexter has been winning my attention at the moment.

Black Mirror.

I cannot recommended it enough.

Black Mirror is a British television anthology series created by Charlie Brooker and shows the dark side of life and technology. The series is produced by Zeppotron for Endemol. Regarding the programme's content and structure, Brooker noted, "each episode has a different cast, a different setting, even a different reality. But they're all about the way we live now — and the way we might be living in 10 minutes' time if we're clumsy."[1]

An Endemol press release describes the series as "a hybrid of The Twilight Zone and Tales of the Unexpected which taps into our contemporary unease about our modern world", with the stories having a "techno-paranoia" feel.[2] Channel 4 describes the first episode as "a twisted parable for the Twitter age".

I liked Dexter, up until the final season and the mockery they made of the finale. Great job people.

Can't pick one, for the life of me.

South Park. Socially-conscious, hilarious & intelligent.
Boondocks. See above response.
Portlandia. See above.
Archer
Bob's Burgers
Fresh Prince
Workaholics
Breaking Bad. Extraordinary on all levels and groundbreaking in every relevant aspect of entertainment.
Superjail. Stupid over-the-top animated violence.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force, because it targets ADHD audiences like myself & succeeds with flying colors.
Daria. Nostalgic childhood favorite, dry humor, love it.
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Intervention. Love tuning in while baked, with friends.
Animaniacs
The Soup. Clever.
Family Matters. Nostalgia landmark.
Married With Children. See above.









Ah! I forgot about Portlandia too! Both actors (Fred and Carrie) are hilarious. My favorite is when they switch genders and play boyfriend and girlfriend Lance and I forgot the girlfriends name.

too many shows in different categories to really pick a favorite...


old favorites:
-babylon 5
-the avengers
-father ted
-always sunny
-twin peaks (until they got bob)

current:
-murdoch mysteries
-fringe
-dexter
-falling skies
-criminal minds at the begining but it's jumped the shark several times
-brit crime shows (I like most british shows, except the militaristic/espionage ones)
-many anime and american anme (south park, american dad,...)

plus many other. I'm also addicted to all those faked reality TV antiquarian shows where people pretend they find treasures and sell em for a fortune or repair old shit and sell it for a fortune

popular shows that I don't like:
-breaking bad (overrated)
-Game of thrones (just another HBO excuse for vulgarity and lesbian scenes)
-american horror story (it's just a collection of halloween cliches, and trying too hard to be smart)

My top;

True blood- love raw bad boys and vampires is a plus, my favorite character Erik

Originals; love vampires, witches and werewolfs, the mystical fascinates me a lot.

Dexter- in his own way he's riding the world of evil, even though he's evil himself.

American horror story- Souls in different life times, it's almost like reecatnation, I like witches as well, and a little bit of evil doesn't hurt anyone(on TV).

Spartacus- although no longer giving it I like historical TV shows. I have a fasicination with roman and Greek times.


Ancient aliens- the title explained itself.


Ghost Adventures- Aside from Zak, I like this show because I like paranormal phenomena.

Smart guy- love stewie

There are many more, like Vampire diaries, Scandle, Greys Anatomy(because I wanted to be a doctor and medical science with a fictional story is a plus).

Sun sign- Saggitarius
