Looking for the next TV series to watch in one night...
Discussion
Hi, I'm one of these guys who are extremely impatient and hate watching a series on TV asyou only see one episode and then have to wait a week to watch the next one. It's one of the reason I hate watching TV, but I still enjoy some TV series. I normally buy box sets and slurge from one episode to the next. I've just watched the whole series of Suits, which had a great balance of comedy, drama and wit about it. And now since there is only 1 series of it thats that until this summer (for the USA that is, probably another year for us since its just been aired here) I'm looking for something to fill the gap left in my heart turn my attention to.
So, where should I consentrate my efforts now? I always appreciate humour along with drama, a good storyline always helps too.
I already own most of House, Bones (...well, its the G/F's...honest) and NCIS (...ok, not exactly brilliant script writing, but entertaining non-the-less, plus having David McCallum is a good bonus).
So, what am I missing out on?

Another for cheesy but fun Hawaii Five 0
How about Sons of Anarchy, just started watching these, not exactly comedy (though some good lines, generally involving slightly sick/ twisted humour!)
Others to look at:
True Blood (quite dark but does have a suprising amount of humour)
Mad Men (hubby prefers this more than me)
Mentalist (can be humourous)
Lie to Me " " " "
The Walking Dead (lacks comedy)
We don't get SKY Atlantic but it looks like they are showing some really good series on there, maybe worth checking some out. We would if we weren't already watching half a dozen different shows (well trying to!!)

It's going to be a long night if you try and watch whole series of an american show in one sitting.
If you want something you can watch in one go then each series of The IT crowd or Peep Show can be done in one sitting.
That said Breaking bad is amazing if you haven't seen it before but it will take a few nights.
