Good TV shows Options

[Pokey]

I just got done watching the first season of Game of Thrones on HBO and absolutely loved the shit out of it. All the hype last year was for the frankly (IMO) disappointing Boardwalk Empire, but Game of Thrones has the potential to become my favorite drama TV show up there with The Wire and The Shield.

Did anyone else watch it or will watch it?

For those that don't know what it is, it's based on a series of books in the fantasy/medieval genre. It's HBO so of course they tell a pretty gritty story. The acting is fantastic with so many strong characters and multiple interweaving plot lines:

And as a side I know I jumped on this band wagon heaps late but I've always started getting into It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia and am absolutely loving it, funniest new comedy I've seen in a few years and definitely one of my favorite American comedies up there with Seinfeld and Arrested Development. Wouldn't quite put it up with my favorite 2 British comedies though being The Thick of It and Peep Show.

And of course loving my Doctor Who also which now unfortunatly is on a mid season break until September.

So what are we all currently watching? What are some of your all time favorite shows?

With reality TV good shows are seeming harder and harder to find. Hero's was the last show I really watched and it seemed to get worse each season.

I really want to see HBO's mini-series "The Pacific" but haven't had a chance to see it yet.
