I agree about Stargate. But Doctor Who? I liked the original series, but I assume you mean this show?

I saw one show from season 1 and its pretty bad, IMO. Cheap and silly. Maybe I'd watch it if there was nothing else on.

The new Doctor Who episodes are great - admittedly it didn't really pick up until season 2 though.

'Ghost in the shell: stand alone complex' is an excellent sci-fi series.

[Zoid]

Indeed. Not as good as the movie though. But still enjoyable. I also liked 'Serial Experiments Lain' and 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' if we're talking anime.

Napoleon

Napoleon was a historical miniseries which explored the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. In 2002, it was the most expensive television miniseries in Europe, costing $46,330,000 to produce. The miniseries covered Napoleon's military successes and failures, including the Battles of Eylau, Austerlitz, Waterloo and the retreat from Russia. It also delved into Napoleon's personal life: his marriage to and divorce from Josephine de Beauharnais, his marriage to Marie Louise, the Duchess of Parma and daughter of Francis II, and his affairs with Eleanore Denuelle and Marie Walewska.

The show aired on the Arts and Entertainment (A&E) channel in the United States. A three-disc DVD (full screen) recording, under the A&E label and with A&E extra features, is sold in the United States. In Canada, there is a four-disc DVD (fullscreen) recording, under the REMSTAR label and without the A&E extra features, in both English and French editions.

I've been watching "You rang milord" (a britcom).

[DrSpike]

That was a funny show - I guess it's a bit dated now though.

After two eps, the new USA Network show, Burn Notice, is very promising.

BBC's Life On Mars is excellent (waiting for 2nd season in the US; I believe it's already on in the UK).

The Fox series, House, is awesome, and has completed 3 full seasons. Hugh Laurie is an excellent actor.

[Kassiopeia]

How did I forget House? Agh! I'm going to have to give Burn Notice a look, since it's got Bruce Campbell guest starring.

BTW, you can watch full TV shows on this site. Its not full screen, far from it. But it gives you a good idea of the different TV shows.

'Foyle's War' is an amazing show

n early World War II Britain, as British soldiers and pilots valiantly resist the German forces on land and in the air, their kinsmen at home face head-on the effects of the awful war that has engulfed their nation. Food rationing, black-outs, German bombing raids, all these and more are daily reminders that no one is to be spared.

For Detective Chief Superintendent Christopher Foyle of the Hastings police department, a man who served his country in World War I and then rose through the ranks of the police force to his current position, sitting on the sidelines during this war is frustrating. Requesting more direct involvement but continually rebuffed by his superior officer, DCS Foyle is further frustrated by a shortage of manpower that impedes his powers of policing.

As Foyle quickly learns, however, the role he plays is in no way a small one, for the war has certainly not brought a cessation of crime. If anything, it has intensified the heinous nature of domestic crime when carried out against innocent people already suffering, sacrificing, and struggling to persevere in such a brutal time.

Each episode of Foyle's War, created by Anthony Horowitz (Midsomer Murders), blends real-life war stories with tales of treachery and suspense. Whether investigating sabotage, looting, stolen food or fuel supplies, police brutality of conscientious objectors, treason, or murder, Foyle and his colleagues must wage their own personal war amidst the tumult of a larger one. But more than a period whodunnit, Foyle's War is redolent with rich human drama subtly revealed through the lives of these main characters who make up the heart of the series. Steadfast and loyal to each other, they strive to uphold the values for which they and their countrymen - their loved ones - are fighting and dying.

How can you abandon 24 at the end of season 4 while it's universally known that season 5 it's the best thing ever

Agreed with DrSpike that it didn't start to 'click' until Season/Series 2 -- the current Doctor is much better than the one in Season/Series 1.
