What Should I Be Watching?
So I’m looking for new stuff to watch on TV. I don’t spend a lot of time in front of the set, and I usually watch (1) when I’m running on the elliptical trainer, and (2) just before bedtime. So I’m lookin’ for high quality stuff.
I’ve seen The Wire, Dexter, Weeds, the Sopranos, Treme, White Collar, Covert Affairs, 30 Rock, Leverage, House, Burn Notice (and man, those last two seasons were grim), Damages, Veronica Mars, Bones, Royal Pains, The Mentalist, Lillyhammer . . . hey, maybe I watch more TV than I think I do!
I’ve tried watching True Blood, which is about stupid people, and couldn’t get very far. Walking Dead made me yawn. House of Cards and Boardwalk Empire leave me cold— I recognize the quality of the production, but I don’t really care.
I’m a little burned out on grimdark right now, so only if it’s really good.
Let me know. (And I’m going to be spending the holiday weekend in the mountains, far from any Internet, so I won’t be reading your recommendation till next week.)
