  • ElD, I don't remember if Arrested Development made your list or not, but it is certainly worth watching and wife-friendly

      No doubt. I wouldn't put it in my top tier and didn't recommend it to ElD because of that and it's not wife friendly at all.

      I do think Johnny should finish it because he got through the first 4 seasons and it's pretty good from there on out.

      • Another comedy that's worth watching, esp as a fantasy footballer is The League. Same writing team as Seinfeld so might not be your cup of tea, but it's pretty damn funny. Not sure how much more they have left in the tank though.

        And of course, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia and Workaholics are great, but really crass.

          Mad Men seems pretty realistic.

            I have watched Season 1 so far and it is fantastic.

              +1 on these two shows..especially Sunny in Philly.

                  • Hey Steve... I know you were a big fan of Leverage... have you been watching The Librarians? They had a good bit on this week about how Otters were evil creatures that must be stopped before they took over the world.

                    • I don't know which US channel it will appear on, but Wolf Hall is crazy good. It's a period drama set during the break between England and the Catholic Church over Henry VIII's desire for a marriage annulment. It's currently airing on BBC iPlayer if you know how to get around the international block.

                      The lead actor is a guy called Mark Rylance. He's been acting in theater for like 35 years, and hardly done any TV or film work. He's won Tony and Oliver awards. He is fucking amazing ... one of those actors who just effortless says everything that needs to be said without uttering a word. I recognise his face from somewhere, but looking at his filmography etc, I can't place it.

                      Damian Lewis plays Henry VIII.

                      I think it's a one off 6 episode mini-series, but damn it's good.

                      • It's heading into its 4th season, but we just started watching Episodes on Showtime, and it's absolutely hysterical. Probably my favorite comedy series on the air right now. The plotline is about a British couple who are TV producers, and get convinced to do an American version of their award winning TV show. The network, however, doesn't want the show to be too "British" and then forces out the series' star, an elderly Brit, in favor of Matt LeBlanc, who plays himself playing the show's star. Hilarity ensues.

                        • First 2 episodes of Better Call Saul were really good. I wasn't sure how it would go, but it has a very Breaking Bad feel ... they have made sure to retain a lot of the feel and structure of BB.
