Top TV Dramas

Jetworks · 09-03-2010, 06:02 PM

I thought this would be a pretty cool thread with the new fall season coming up. The one drama I'm definitely going to give a shot is "Blue Bloods", though I don't have high hopes given its Friday slot. "Terriers" looks like it might be worth a shot as well.

My all-time list:

Battlestar Galactica
Magnum P.I.
The Shield (unrealistic, but fun)
Rescue Me (a bit more realistic, lotsa fun)
E.R. (first 9 seasons)
Lost
24 (first 3 seasons)
Homicide: Life on the Street
The X-Files

Had potential but canceled:

Life (solid writing, acting, plus Sarah Shahi [I][U]and[/U][/I] Christina Hendricks!)
Invasion
American Gothic (Gary Cole was really good in this)

I definitely intend to add "Dexter" at some point. There really seems to be a dearth of quality dramas on TV, IMHO. I know there are some that I didn't name (Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy), but I can't think of many more, especially on regular broadcast TV.
