Well if you find yourself liking Weeds, I'd recommend Six Feet Under and Dexter.

Six Feet Under is about a disfunctional family who happen to run a funeral parlour.

Dexter is about a serial killer (one of the family in 6 feet under is Dexter).

Both dark humour, and like Weeds, plenty of swearing and partial nudity.

I do like the West Wing. Although I'm sure its a comedy not a drama 

Although it could also be a documentary on how the White House is actually run. Hard to tell

I thought the west wing was about a hospital. Shows how much tv I watch. I like political satire and would look into this one as well.

Damn, unfortunately they don't ship internationally. On the other hand I'm already spending way too much on TV series anyway... 

And yes, the US version of "The Office" IS fantastic, I absolutely love it. Last week's news about NBC firing each and everyone of the more than 100 crew members because of the author strike nearly brought tears to my eyes.

We like weeds. What a brilliant show. A little slow to start to get into the characters but after 3 episodes it's getting interesting. Too bad the show runs under 30 minutes. It should of been longer.

Ok watched the first ten episodes on Season 1 and I am hooked. Got to go out now and buy season 2. What a great story line. And also eearily close to real life in So Cal. Typical valley mentality and behaviour from the wives. I used to live in that mess a few years back and have no regrets getting out of there. Well I am off to pick up the next Season.

Later,

Glad you're enjoying it.

Season 3 finished yesterday. Interesting end to the season. Apparently they have ordered a season 4 which is good.

The new version of Jekyll from the BBC is very good. Only 6 episodes, but really good. Great modern version of the classic story. Oh and it has Michelle (Bionic Woman) Ryan

Just picked up season 2 of Weeds for 12.99 Thanks to Walmart for matching the price on Circuit City's flyer. Even Best Buy would not honor the price match. When we were checking out I picked up a box of brownie mix to be funny. Told the clerk you can't make brownies without the Weed. He was rolling and my wife turned beet red. All the way home my wife is telling me how I scored some Weed. Looking forward to watching Season 2. Hope it is as good as the first season.
