Okay, I'm just very curious (and maybe a bit of a survey). What are your favorite shows? This applies for both ongoing and either cancelled or finished. I want to know who's a fellow geek in BP! Animes do count. Oner I remember atm (won't include ones I watched and though they sucked, favorites only)...
US/UK: How I Met Your Mother Happy Endings Parks and Rec Breaking Bad Party Down Freaks and Geeks Undeclared Archer Arrested Development Community (not that last season though) Sherlock Luther DOCTOR WHO!! Misfits (S1 was good, rest meh) Heroes (see above)
Anime: Eden of the East Durarara FMA: Brotherhood Bakemonogatari

My wife and I would always yearn for August each year cos that's when House MD DVD would be released. Too bad, it is now drawn to an end.

I LOVE TV SHOWS The Walking Dead - a world of zombies where you fear the living and kill the dead Dexter - sadly they will finish the series next season. I highly suggest you watch this How I Met Your Mother - my favorite comedy. My favorite character Lily Survivor - my favorite reality tv show. 26 seasons in and I still love watching it. American Horror Story - weirdly one of my favs. Breaking Bad - makes me wanna be a drug dealer Parks and Rec - I have a crush on Ann and April The office - sweet love story between Jim and Pam...funny obnoxious comedy...love the pranks Heroes - WHY THEFUCK they cancelled this show Prison break - epic thriller. I'm always on the edge of my seat. I'm pretty sure I feel off my seat at least once Once Upon A Time - a new twist on all your favorite bedtime stories. Lost - how can I forget about this one. 184 episodes and every one of it is very much worth it Big Bang theory - your typical nerdy comedy...hilarious quirks by the characters. Suits - this one girl in there is HOOT watch it and ull know who I'm talking about 30 rock - Tina fey's comedy styling turns me on Upcoming: S.H.I.E.L.D. - upcoming show that takes on avengers Anime: Bleach Death NOte I highly suggest watching any shows on my list P.S. if you wanna talk about any shows hit me up....also I want to watch Game of Thrones but just unsure anyone wanna try to convince me? AAA what did u think of the casting of the mother in How I Met Your Mother? Personally she seems too lily-ish and does not look like Ted's type. On the other hand, Ted goes for any girl who is willing to marry him

How did you tag? Yeah, I'm a fan of her. Reminds me of Annie Clark. I'm not a fan of the season though. But I've read some things about Season 9 (spoilers though) that might redeem that underwhelming S8.
8 seasons and the first time you show the titular character is through the eyes of an extra in the form of train ticket lady. Bravo writers, bravo. I might be just nitpicking but I really found it to be lazy writing. I would've preferred it if her first appearance showed off more color, more impact other than blatantly showing her face and having her do NOTHING at all.
PS glad you love Parks as well, one of my favorite comedies right now

PS glad you love Parks as well, one of my favorite comedies right now I love the comedies with a little bit of heart if you know what I mean...more like a day in their life with just stupidity and comedy. Like, Barney and Robin's struggles to meet each other and be together. Also, bringing the Mother this late seems like their way of the start of season 9 which should wraps everything together. I mean it is their last season. Also, parks and rec I like Ron and the role they gave him as the Ideal Manly Man

My girl loves Prison Break, and seeing posted 2 out of 2 makes me want to give it a shot now.
@jo3yboi P&R is consistently funny and one of the few comedies that take character developemnt seriously and I love that. Just looking back at S1 so much has changed. Goofy Andy is still Goofy Andy but he's so much more driven now. That arc about him wanting to be a cop was great. And then government hating Ron meeting Xena the Warrior Princess is a nice development as well. Every season has a huge story arc with resolution. And somehow they manage to sneak in recurring gags like Duke Silver(is that the name?) and hatin on Jerry.
And then it takes 9 seasons of HIMYM to make Ted get over Robin! Seriously. I know they can't be compared that way but Im just disappointed that HIMYM sometimes wastes episodes that could've be used on character progression. I love the show and probably why I hate it when it does that.
Surprised no one has mentioned Lost.
