dignity is overrated
I really want to see that Mad Men thing after Charlie Brooker basically did PR for it.
If you had time to go to the BBC shop then I'd recomend a few quality BBC classics series such as:
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
Smiley's People
The Edge of Darkness
A Very British Coup
House of Cards
State of Play
All excellent gripping stuff!
But if you haven't got time for that get the Wire - it's just as good as thiese if not better.

Hardly getting over it.
I'm a bit worried about watching season 5. It's almost as if I'm scared that if I watch it and don't like it, it'll take the gloss from seasons 1-4 for me.

You can get the entire West Wing Series for £50 in HMV.
Case closed.

I've just brought the first couple of seasons of Entourage after hearing great things about it from some friends of mine.

Oh of course AD. It's one of those shows that's made to be greedily gobbled up in lengthy DVD watching sessions.

Just go into HMV and take your pick - they've got almost every major TV series of the last 20 years in box set format at about 1/3-1/2 normal price...
So we're heading off into the wilds for the next couple of weeks - no TV, internet, phone etc. We always take a laptop to watch films on. We wanted to take the Sopranos boxset (as we recently watched the first 2 chapters and enjoyed it) but my brother in law has them..Last year we watched all 3 seasons of Black Books.
Anyway, we'll be in the airport tomorrow and I could buy something there - what's good? (Apart from Lost or 24 - I tried both and didn't like them). Is Heroes really any good - gaijinboy reckons it sounds shit? Or any other suggestions?
i say peep show. but if you like black books then you might like the it crowd or father ted, same writer

I watched the entire of West Wing for the first time from beginning to end over the last couple of months and was surprised that I really got quite into it, it's well worth giving it a go.

Buffy and Angel box sets are quite cheap too, if you want to go the 'good fantasy' TV route.

Maybe I like the misery
