Walking Dead (AMC)
Breaking Bad (A&E)
It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia (FX)
Archer (FX)
Wilbur (FX)
Workaholics (Comedy Central)
Party Down (Showtime)
East Bound And Down (HBO)
Curb Your Enthusiasm (HBO)

I put the original station in ( ) so that if you can't find them on DVD, perhaps you could find the "Webisodes".

Newer episodes of Bones seem to be shot like a soap, I just don't dig it anymore  :( Haven't watched any of the new season of House yet but it looks much more promising.
Sons is epic-awesome! The finale to last season just perfect. Almost every other show on FX is fantastic as well. Justified, Rescue Me, Archer, and Always Sunny are all great.

Gotta' add Dexter, it is so dark and the narrative is so excellent. It's not a comedy but it's got great comic relief that makes me nearly suffocate from laughing 1 or 2 times an episode.
Community isn't a show for everyone, but I like it. It's basically a sit-com that follows half a dozen people in a study group at a community college. IMO you've got to start at the pilot if you ever want to understand the humor and enjoy the show, before I got into it I tried watching a latest episode and I just thought it was lame.

Actually none of those are any good.... but they are on TV.


Well I spent some time pondering this and came to the conclusion that you'd have to go a several years to find anything worth watching.

There's 13 seasons of Dallas to watch before the new Dallas show airs next summer on TNT.   There's no one more evil than J.R. Ewing.
