May 28, 200619 yr Veronica Mars is your answer. It's a detective show about a girl who tries to uncover such mysteries as who drugged and raped her, murdered her best friend or blew up a bus full of her class mates. The first two seasons have big, complex, season-long mysteries as well as smaller ones. Practically nobody watches the show but it's just so great that a third season has been greenlighted. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veronica_Mars
May 28, 200619 yr Listen to Baley. Also The Killing Casablanca Big Sleep The Maltese Falcon And just to annoy Baley I'm going to suggest "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
May 28, 200619 yr The Lion in Winter. Man, that's a classic. One minute, 1,283 classic films. I have a feeling someone has a list somewhere. Hmmmm? baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs
May 29, 200619 yr Firefly. Pure and simple. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
May 29, 200619 yr Battlestar Galactica. DVDs or reruns. I'm going to dust-off my old X-Files DVDs and make some popcorn. Edited May 29, 200619 yr by astr0creep http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
May 29, 200619 yr Battlestar Galactica. DVDs or reruns. I'm going to dust-off my old X-Files DVDs and make some popcorn. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That and Millennium. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.

What was that other show Chris Carter produced, about a man who enters a game that is used like a penal colony or somesuch? It lasted only for a very short time. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
May 29, 200619 yr They only made about three pilot episodes ... the first soldier they sent into the combat simulation took it over, and the show was about the guy they had chosen to send in after him (there were a few others sent in and never heard from again). Can't remember the name of it, though I think it was an internet release ... certainly I saw it on the intertron. OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT

May 29, 200619 yr the new BG is really good....it has enough sci-fi for geeks and enough soap opera for everyone else (but not too much). the Season 1 DVD is available as is Season 2.0. Season 2.5 has not yet been released (last time I checked) but should be released soon. I may even upgrade my cable so I can watch the new ones as they come out in the fall. I also picked up the boxed set of the old series....WOW, that brought back memories.
May 30, 200619 yr Veronica Mars is fantastic. Together with Battlestar Galactica it's currently the best show on TV (although season 5 of 24 sure gave them a run for the money). So those two would be my recommendation. The reason no one watches VM is that it's on UPN and that it's not really compatible with any of their other shows. Or people in the US has real crappy taste. Anothe reason is that the show concept on paper sounds really corny. I mean, high school detective? But it actually works. The writing and acting is absolutely fantastic. And for the record I'm a 29 year old male that doesn't like walks in the woods. So to answer the original question, VM and BSG are strong recommendations. Oh, also The Shield and The Wire.

June 26, 200619 yr Author I finished Veronica Mars a couple of weeks back, and I agree, great acting and very well written. I will check out battlestar galactica. What are wire and shield about? Any other recommendations?
July 4, 200619 yr Author Battlestar Galactica was a ****ing awesome series. Now I desperately need another recommendation.
