Does anyone watch Game of Thrones? Or Spartacus?
How could you rate them?

What is your favorite tv series (old or new doesn't matter)?
Maybe you could give me idea what to watch...:):):):)


P.S. In english please!!! :D:D:D
Thanks

RedGoblin

Game of Thrones!!oh yeah! but only the first season is out.. so waiting for the next.. and the books are even better.

Try Broadwalk empire, sons of anarchy and Weeds. all of em good!
Boston legal is one of the series that is over but then it is really good!

Enjoy!

3rd Rock-didnt get around it much but not bad
2 and a Half men-some episode are excellent some are eh
Dharma and Greg
Will and Grace--doubt you be able to download it LOL
Hellcats

Sportsnight

oh and here are
some series that you might enjoy
OC (orange county)
90210 - new series not the old one
Human Target- as good as james bond

dynamo1131

House and CSI is good

Good to hear that there are English sitcoms available in KSA.

Dont they kind of censor television as the content may not be appropriate as per Saudi broadcasting rules ... or watever . :rolleyes:

BAA_BAAintheDunes

everyything is censored. So censored that you kind of miss the point of the movie show or whatever.   I thought the user will download whatever he likes.  All these are not broadcasted lol specifically Will and Grace :)

IT Guy

well, look at the bright side, at least the same can be watched on the net. I have a huge dump of Sitcoms and movies on my drive... hope I can bring it over there .. or again do customs check a portable drive :/

If you think Glee is a good show, stop reading this post RIGHT NOW....go climb up a high building and jump off!

-Spartacus is awesome but old,
so is -Prison Break
-Game of Thrones is too slow (i fall asleep in the middle of the episode)
everyone left out -True Blood which is the best show these days.
-Californication is EIPC
-Weeds is good but the newest season isnt looking as good as
their older seasons.
-United States of Tara - i love that show mainly cuz its made about a family from my hometown (OverlandPark Kansas! WOOHOO!)
-DEXTER - Possibly the best series ever written

If reality shows is your thing:
-The real L word is awesome
-Jersey Shore (new season looks great!)

in Sitcoms:
-two and a half men,
-how i met your monther
-the office (waiting for the new season)

all these shows are like 18 rated so dont bother if that kindda stuff bothers you!

if you cant get these shows on your tv (like from showtime or orbit) there are many video stores who sell these on DVD.

Thanks guys... ill be checking all these stuff...looking forward for more suggestions..thanks..

Do you guys know any spy/ secret agent tv series?

@RedGoblin: yeah..ive watched Game of Thrones, its pretty interesting.. looking forward to the next season.ive seen Boston Legal and i find it informative and funny at the same time

@borntobemild: lol @ your first statement. i watched the first season of glee and its seems to be fine but the second season turned out to be bad even charice pempengco was there.

ive watched spartacus. its pretty awesome! it's part of the history that's why its really cool...looking forward for season 2 but unfortunately, spartacus will be replaced by another character in season 2.So there could a big difference from the first season.

must watch SEINFELD, highly recommended!

Maya Maya

my fav is Grey's anatomy

and u have 2 watch "that 70's show" its kinda old but crazy funny
first season is kinda boring but the rest is stupid funny haha!

Mudman

If it's quality over quantity:

"Sherlock" from the BBC is 3 x 90 mins of pure gold.
"Life on Mars" and "Ashes to Ashes" prove yet again that the BBC can do it right when they pull their finger out.

"Angry Boys" is an excellent comedy series from Australia, so that almost makes it British ;)

IT Guy

Try 'The Big Bang Theory'

I've watched season one (as if there is season 2 yet :0 ) of Game of Thrones. I would say it's quite good, nah excellent. Casting is really suited to the characters. Plot is really fine. I'd say ion a scale of 1 to 5 as 5 as the highest I'll give the show 4.

NJEXPAT

The Sopranos
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Entourage
Nip Tuck
The Walking Dead
Misfits

I completely forgot the Jersey Shore (my beloved State)!! and The Office too

seeker of truth

Does anyone knows "INBETWEENERS"?

Hey guys! I have new tv series to recommend.
See the new series "TOUCH"! It's simply amazing. The series is about a father fighting for the custody of his son and depicts not only western culture but also the eastern culture and even the arab world... The story circles around the world! Check it out! :)
it is worth watching

2. Burn Notice

And a new series, Grim, I am quite enjoying.  It's on Wednesday nights at 8PM.
