Twin Peaks? No
Rocky and Bullwinkle? Yes
Any of the old Warner Brothers/Hanna-Barbera cartoons would be fine with me.
I really liked “The Unit” and “Flashpoint” is also really good.
Excellent choice!
I vote for Babylon 5, also. Watch it from the beginning for the story arc.
Another interesting show...
TopGear...
People initially think it is a guy show and in a way it is because it is focused on the automobile, however the show is much more than that, great cinematography, really funny stories and situations.
Typical British humor in many regards but truly a joy to watch especially if you have HDTV.
I believe it is the most watch show in this history of TV now, suprassing even Mash.
Second that! I need to get ‘John Adams’ out and watch it again now that ‘Lost’ is over, LOL.
I also love “The Last of the Summer Wine”.
No mention yet of AMC’s great’s??
Breaking Bad
and
Mad Men
Quality televion. Get the DVD’s. Watch them.
Oh my - I missed the part about watching it with a 16 year old daughter.
Skip Dexter.
Yikes.
Missed this “I’m looking for something that doesn’t insult my spiritual or political (Christian Conservative) beliefs”
Skip Dollhouse then, though it does bring up a lot of moral questions (not typical Q’s). Not sure if Jericho would insult your beliefs.
Do you have some issue with cherry pie?
Royal Pains on Fox begins soon. It is funny and something of a spoof of the high and mighty and corrupt New Yorkers (including those that can’t be named).
Also, pretty soon on TNT I think the Closer will resume before too long. It is a transplanted Atlanta female chief detective in LA.
I don’t think either is political
Another great one from Masterpiece Theater UK is
The Last Enemy
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/lastenemy/index.html
La Femme Nikita
Firefly
Millennium
later
“King of the Hill”. The most conservative show in years, and the first five seasons had some of the best comedy writing I’ve seen in ages.
Rocky and Bullwinkle was a wonderful show.
Jag-it’s the forerunner to NCIS. It’s sometimes cheesy, but has a good, solid American hero.
Firefly- Just one season, but fun.
Monk- Never watched it, but my wife really liked it.
There were eight 2-hour movies that follow the career of Hornblower from mid-shipman to commander.
Think of it as a tame Master and Commander times eight.

Yes you were right - forgot Fawlty towers ;-P
