[TV] Talk about the last TV you watched, the catchall thread

I only got as far as the first season of Misfits. It was okay, but it just wasn't enough to motivate me to keep watching. As for what I'm hooked on lately...
Death Note
It's an anime that a friend of mine kept pestering me to watch. Funny thing is, I watched the first couple of episodes and then stopped. Then went back to it and obsessively watched another half dozen or so. Now I'm back again and almost up to episode 20. I honestly don't know what it was that had me stopping the last times because it's a damn good show.

My favorite anime. It's great on so many dramatic and psychological levels. I'm impressed that a fiction could have two dynamically opposed characters and have a fanbase that's split down the middle in preferring one over the other. Amazing writing there to accomplish that kind of keying into people's values and feelings.
Been watchin Parks and Recreation like mad. Nick Offerman is friggin' hilarious.

I am loving Young Justice so much. This series is fantastic. It's a great mixture of humor and really dark-serious moments. Stories have weight to them, but heroes are still acting heroically. Really my kind of superhero show.
If you're watching YJ, I think you should also be watching Sirene's Young Justice vlogs:
So much fun to watch because she's always excited about the show and I love it when she rants about the fandom.

Overall I'm loving the first Moffat-headed Doctor Who season, but way to ruin the Weeping Angels.

I think it's a great show. The villains are fascinating, "love to hate" type bad-guys. There are some nice twists on the fairy tales, and the costuming is fantastic.
Anyone see South Park last week? It was hilarious man. Real good satire on the toilet seat argument for sure.
You know what had a really good series ending? Ed Edd n Eddy. The movie tied things up so perfectly, and was probably the best ending for the series. I sometimes cry when I watch it. We miss you Danny Antonucci.
A friend of mine got me into the BBC Sherlock Holmes show with Martin Freeman and Benedict Cumberbatch. Pretty good stuff. Only have two episodes left before I joine everyone else in the wait for season 3
I just finished the first series recently and completely love this show! I'm tempted to buy the series 1 and 2 DVD...
The wait is gonna be a long one.....
Regular Show was pretty funny tonight. A really good "The Wizard" parody. Though...it does make me confused on why video-games in this universe are still eight bit.
in case you forgot, Mad Men is still a masterpiece
Got to see the last two episodes of Sherlock.
WHAT THE HELL HOW DOES THAT EVEN....HOW'D HE.... BUT WE SAW... WHAT THE HELL?!

It's pretty boring to me, and I don't find the "look at how terrible people were in the 60s" jokes to be that amusing.
What?
Looks like were talking about Mad-men. The reason I never got into it is well it seems...obvious. If it were a movie, showing 60s guys being jerks that's fine. But a whole series? I would probably get the satire in the first couple eps, I wouldn't need to see any more.
