    [TV] What's next?

    Me being a fan of DEXTER, NCIS, NCISLos Angelesand House, am looking for a new interesting show to watch.
    Are there any serials which you think are worth watching? (Canceled or still running)

    If possible, please give me a Trailer vid with your suggestion.

    Thanks alot

    Following Dexter, you could easily go with the other great Showtime shows.
    Homeland, Weeds, The Big C, Californication, Shameless US version, Secret Diary of a Call Girl
    HBO Shows are also good and somewhat along the same vein as Showtime shows.
    True Blood, Big Love.... that's all I can really watched from HBO.

    Umm... Shows like NCIS, do you like NCIS because of the detectives or the .... CSI type stuff? Labwork and such. If labwork the CSI series.
    If detective, go with the other USA shows!
    Law and Order SVU/CI are both good. Monk. Those are the detective shows I watched on USA.
    Other USA shows I really enjoyed are:
    Covert Affairs, White Collar, Psych, Royal Pains, Necessary Roughness, In Plain Sight, Fairly Legal

    Also, Castle. It's amazing.

    Umm... I don't really know what else to suggest, because I'm not sure on your tastes exactly. I could always post up my favorite shows, if you want.

    Breaking Bad (from AMC) is the first show that comes to mind after seeing that mix of shows. (I'd assume you want one with a couple seasons to catch up on.)

    Castle's a great detective show with very quirky murders that might strike your fancy.

    You should definitely check out my list.
    There are several that are just comedies and not action. But most the things I listed have some action in them and are comedy.

    Weeds, Californication, Sons of Anarchy.

    The West Wing, The Wire, and the Shield for cancelled shows for sure.

    Supernatural, supernatural and supernatural you wont regret watching it because it is the most badass show and there is high risk of getting addicted to it. Currently running on 7th season.

    It has action, comedy and very exiting plot that keeps you interested all the time

    Supernatural is a pretty good series. I've recently started watching Fringe and Breaking Bad and both have seemed pretty good so far.

    True Blood is simply amazing! 100% worth watching.
    I would also recommend The Sopranos, Game of Thrones, and Generation Kill.
