TV shows you really need to NetFlix

I watch more TV than you. I always say this but i feel like beleaguring the point. Your TV watching is nothing compared to mine. I am the king of the couch. I am the master of the remote control. I am the supreme cyclops of TV, so listen up because I have some shows you need to go watch.

What you will notice is that I left off many popular shows because they are too easy and really the base common denominator.  CSI...well that is an awesome show, so i dont have to tell you to watch and ignore CSI: NY, Miami or NCIS or NCIS LA or NCIS: Russia.  Law and order is only good if you're a frustrated lawyer.  I also left off some of my personal mindless favorites like White Collar or Fast Lane because I know those shows suck but they entertain me.  Other things you will notice is that F/X is a great network for TV.  I could have added Damages or Riches on there if they would have just lasted a bit longer.  F/X does a great job rolling out shows that other networks overlook or wont show.  so peruse the list, go to netflix and start watching.  you wont be disappointed unless you think Big Momma's house is a good movie!


F/X:
The Shield
Sons of Anarchy
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Justified
Archer
Rescue ME (up to season 5)

HBO:
The Wire
ROME
(I intentionally left out Sopranos and True blood because those shows arent good.  They were ok and have survived on the mass appeal of people who didnt know about the other shows on this list.  Eastbound and Down is also off because it is not that funny and dont even get me started on Curb your Enthusiasm... You also already know that Entourage is awesome...for the most part!)

SHOWTIME:
Californication
Dexter
Weeds
(sorry L Word and Tudors...i havent watched you.  Nurse Jackie was good for 2 episodes, and whatever that nonsense is with William H Macy, I will pass on it.)

STARZ:
Spartacus

USA:
Monk
Psych (season 1-2)
Burn Notice (season 1-3)

BBC:
Luther
Sherlock
Coupling

Cartoon Network:
Cowboy Bebop
