Perhaps someone here can say more about it
These are the series I have already lined up on Netflix:
Breaking Bad
Mad Men
Lost
Boardwalk Empire
X-Files
Sopranos
I'll also tack on some recommendations I see in this thread and I have stacks and stacks of books that need reading as well.
I mostly watch old Film Noir movies at veetle.com. They also have a good war movies channel but with a limited playlist.
Veetle uses P2P file sharing technology in case that bothers you.
Give Lie to Me an episode or two on Netflix. Imagine a consultant that literally can tell if you are lying or not. Not only is it an interesting show but you learn a ton about non verbal communication.
Burn Notice, Elementary, Person of Interest, Major Crimes were previously suggested and I concur. I also second White Collar, Leverage and The Mentalist, Game of Thrones and Leverage.
As with any drama, it is always best to start at the beginning. Most of these are on Netflix and seeing them commercial free is a blessing.
Cheers,
