    [TV] Looking for a new Edgy series to watch.

    Recently just finished Sons of Anarchy.

    Iv seen

    NipTuck
    Rescue Me
    The Shield
    The Closer
    Breaking Bad
    BSG The remade Series
    All of Stargate
    Torchwood [ not interested into the Doctor.]

    Looking for something else to keep me busy while i mine on EvE.

    I herd Weeds is like Breaking bad a little, and im wondering about Dexter. Any advice on these or a series similar to these.

    If all else fails i might watch Eureka since i watched a bit of it in the past and enjoyed it.

    Lost, Fringe, Modern Family, Californication, The Walking Dead.

    Also have a look at The River, which have just aired. It looks promising.

    Twin Peaks
    Luck (new show, only 2 episodes so far, but it's looking really good)
    Freaks and Geeks
    The West Wing
    Farscape
    Carnivale

    Dexter is a must watch imo. I've only just started watching it, but my gosh, I'm addicted
    The Walking Dead, possibly one of the best tv series airing atm. Returns to TV tomorrow in US.
    True Blood, I know it's all vampires, but nothing like Twilight plus if you want eye candy..
    Heroes - but they've stopped making more series, so ends on a cliffhanger you will never know.

    I 2nd everything on this list. Esp. The Wire. If you enjoyed The Shield I think you will like The Wire. It moves at a bit of a slower pace, but is simply amazing. Features alot of characters in that moral grey area like The Shield.

    Good series. I just wish HBO would not have axed it like they did. That series and Deadwood were so deserving of more!

    The other people in this thread have already listed a bunch of nerdy stuff that i like but here are 2 gems:

    I haven't actually seen Game of Thrones or Sons of Anarchy yet. Think I'm gonna do it though, they seem nice, especially GoT

    Terra nova - Somewhat family oriented, but a good sci-fi drama
    Grimm - pretty awesome

    Game of Thrones and Spartacus

    Same here. The outline for the third series looks absolutely amazing, shame it was not meant to be.

    And OT: try Alcatraz. It's a new series, 5 episodes so far, but so far it's quite interesting.

    Weeds is a pretty good show. I've actually watched all episodes through a few times now. It's nothing absolutely amazing but it's at least worth a watch. And to be fair, the episodes are short so it does go by quick even on the off chance you don't like it.

    Game of thrones
    Heroes
    Supernatural
    Chuck
    Dexter
    House
    Californication
    and ofc Star Trek + TNG

    I love Monday nights on the SyFy channel - Being Human and Lost Girl are my fav shows atm.

    Good thread, I was also looking for TV shows like Game of Thrones/Sherlock (Shows Similar in terms of quality not necessarily genre)
    For Comedy I'd recommend Archer, Arrested Development, IT crowd and Black Adder
