Breaking Bad
Twin Peaks
A lot of Battlestar Galactica, until the end was spoiled for me right around a slow point in the series, so I just threw in the towel on that one
Oh, and Portlandia, as each season gets released on Netflix.
Other than the occasional show like this that I binge on (which admittedly absorbs me for days/weeks), I pretty much only watch The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, and SNL - even though the latter is more ritualistic for me, since it's just something I've always watched, regardless of it's ups and downs.
I know these don't count, but I'm only bringing it up because of the statement made by dead-battery in the original post. I'm sure it wasn't a 100% honest assessment of his feelings, but it clearly reflects how a lot of people seem to view entertainment. I like the new set up that we have for shows now. I don't get dragged in to just lazily sitting around a watching whatever is on. I choose exactly what I will watch, watch it, and move on.
