Dexter is the best show on Television,how can you beat a show that's about a serial Killer who kills other serial killers?Second to it is V.The show always keeps you guessing,and also the characters are awesome!

Dude... I didn't even know Snoop was a girl until half that particular season was over. lol... And yea... she's terrifying because it's so real and possible that someone as innocent looking as what seems to be 13 year old boy is as hard as she is. She's freaking ruthless in the show. You don't see her until later though.

Yea, the whole show is pretty much based in reality as far as events, even names in some cases, like Avon Barksdale, etc... their roles, everything. It's a really good series.

Dexter is a no brainer if you like crime/CSI type shows but with an awesome twist.

Breaking Bad has VERY good acting and very good screenplay, directing, script, everything. I can't find a single thing wrong with Breaking Bad except that the latest season (3) is far slower than the previous two... but it's still done right in context. If you want to see a series that isn't shabbily put together, Breaking Bad is the ticket. Plus it's about drugs and the DEA... FUNNNNNNNN...

Anyone else here particularly familiar with HBO's Dream On? I've just been getting into it lately, and it's pretty hilarious stuff. Whoever edited that show's officially a genius in my books.
