Hey you guys, anyone recently discovered a new tv series that is worth trying? I esp like those high quality HBO series. Here's what I've seen so far (and can in most cases highly recommend):

HBO
The Sopranos
The Wire
Entourage
True Blood
Six Feet Under
Boardwalk Empire
Game Of Thrones
How To Make It In America
Eastbound And Down

non HBO
Mad Men
Breaking Bad (actually this one I dont like)
Sons Of Anarchy
The Shield
The Big C
Battlestar Galactica
We're not in this alone.

I'm watching Boardwalk Empire. It's based on a true story of Atlantic City's top chief Nucky Johnson during the Prohibition era in the 1920s and 1930s. I highly recommend if you like 20th century history or just mafia type movies.

I'm not really into tv series, so it's the only I watch these day but I'm planning to start Sons of Anarchy sometime soon.

Zoltan, thanks heaps man! I have already watched Boardwalk Empire, see my list. And Sons Of Anarchy also, it is great. But if you are not into tv series I would recommend something elso to go on with instead of Sons Of Anarchy. The Sopranos and Mad Man are Must Sees, make sure to check them out also!!!

I heard only good things about The Walking Dead. It is Frank Darabond from The Shawshank Redemption directing, right? As this is the greatest movie of all time the series should be awesome....

Yeah, everyone who liked the movie 300 would love Spartacus. Too bad Andy Whitfield died in September, hope his replacement for Season 2 can compete with his performance.

Have you seen the prequel "Spartacus - Gods of the arena" as well? It is awesome too.
