- CreatorMark FrostDavid LynchStarsKyle MacLachlanMichael OntkeanMädchen AmickAn idiosyncratic FBI agent investigates the murder of a young woman in the even more idiosyncratic town of Twin Peaks.A master piece that all you younger people probably missed. Its a wierd and wonderful ride through the wicked mind of Lynch. The vibe, music and acteurs makes this one a straight 10....;)
........and dont make the mistake and watch the movie "fire walk with me´" first.......its not even close to beeing as strong as the serie and it kinda spoils the serie....... - CreatorMitchell HurwitzStarsJason BatemanMichael CeraPortia de RossiLevel-headed son Michael Bluth takes over family affairs after his father is imprisoned. But the rest of his spoiled, dysfunctional family are making his job unbearable.A wicked ride with this f... up family, its very VERY unrealistic but it doesnt really matter.....kookoookitschuuuu....;)
And that its returning after a 7 year break is frekking wonderful news....2013 people, the family returns;) - CreatorJ. Michael StraczynskiStarsMira FurlanRichard BiggsStephen FurstIn the mid 23rd century, the Earth Alliance space station Babylon 5, located in neutral territory, is a major focal point for political intrigue, racial tensions and various wars over the course of five years.A fantastic sci-fi show, its very hard to find a show that has a script that follows through the hole show like this. It can be abit wierd and B at first glance because of the old graphics, but when G´kar and Londo gets it to your head u will be stuck with this epic show......
Allso, dont forget that there are 7 movies to watch beside the serie, and do please google the order to watch them because otherwise it doesnt really make any sence. And there is allso a spin of too, but its not as good....but totally watchable;) - StarsScott GrimesDamian LewisRon LivingstonThe story of Easy Company of the U.S. Army 101st Airborne Division and their mission in World War II Europe, from Operation Overlord to V-J Day.Watched this show just recently because I was sure I wouldnt like it, but man was I wrong. Its very strong, well played/directed and its allmost impossible not to watch it all in one day.....
- CreatorGlen A. LarsonRonald D. MooreStarsEdward James OlmosMary McDonnellJamie BamberWhen an old enemy, the Cylons, resurface and obliterate the 12 colonies, the crew of the aged Galactica protect a small civilian fleet - the last of humanity - as they journey toward the fabled 13th colony, Earth.Pure PURE magic, damn I love this serie. Cant really explain why I love it so much. The darkness, the sound, the caracters?? This is a mile stone when it comes to sci-fi and TV in general.....
There are a few movies involved in this serie that you have to watch and several web-isodes that makes alot of sence..... - CreatorVince GilliganStarsBryan CranstonAaron PaulAnna GunnA chemistry teacher diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer turns to manufacturing and selling methamphetamine with a former student in order to secure his family's future.Even though its from a lame arse/no swearing/blablabla-channel (wierd american rules, land of free....hehe) it still works. Its still a rough one and the acting is top notch by the leading role. This show will be talked about for a long long time......
- CreatorTom KapinosStarsDavid DuchovnyNatascha McElhoneEvan HandlerA writer tries to juggle his career, his relationship with his daughter and his ex-girlfriend, as well as his appetite for beautiful women.Admit it, we all wanna be him. Ride around in a *beep* porsche, pick up extremly cool women in the drug store, have friends like the ronkles, hang out with crazy people and still be the craziest of the bunch, have a cool and smart daughter and a beautiful girl by ones side.........;) But the last 2 seasons isnt a strong as the first ones.....
- CreatorLarry DavidStarsLarry DavidCheryl HinesJeff GarlinLarry David stars as an over-the-top version of himself in this comedy series that shows how seemingly trivial details of day-to-day life can precipitate a catastrophic chain of events.If you are weak hearted and you cant stand George (Seinfeld), you probably shouldnt watch this show. Its built on the same "real life, embarressing stuff" as the one mentioned but it takes it down a notch and makes it abit more realistic....
- CreatorJames Manos Jr.StarsMichael C. HallJennifer CarpenterDavid ZayasHe's smart. He's lovable. He's Dexter Morgan, America's favorite serial killer, who spends his days solving crimes and nights committing them.A very good show on all sides, though all the seasons arnt as strong. Good acteurs with one exception, the actress who plays Dexters sister.......
- CreatorJulian FellowesStarsHugh BonnevillePhyllis LoganElizabeth McGovernA chronicle of the lives of the British aristocratic Crawley family and their servants in the early twentieth century.This is what the brittish are really good at, making these down to earth shows that realies on conversation, beautiful scenerie and top notch acting.
- CreatorRockne S. O'BannonStarsBen BrowderClaudia BlackAnthony SimcoeThrown into a distant part of the universe, an Earth astronaut finds himself part of a fugitive alien starship crew.If you can make it, and please do, to around episod 15, first season, you will be treated to a fantastic journey. We all get pissed of at the Crydon caracter in the beginning (over-american caracter surrounded by aussie and britt acteurs) but in the end one will get Crydon;) Fantastic Sci-fi from down under;) Dont forget to end the saga with the Peace Keepers War.......
- StarsJohn CleesePrunella ScalesAndrew SachsHotel owner Basil Fawlty's incompetence, short fuse, and arrogance form a combination that ensures accidents and trouble are never far away.John Cleese, the brittish way, Baaaaasil!!!.......need I say more?;) We Swedes prefer and really love the brittish humour, and this is the peak...the mile stone.......Extremly funny, stressful at times...;=)
- CreatorJoss WhedonStarsNathan FillionGina TorresAlan TudykFive hundred years in the future, a renegade crew aboard a small spacecraft tries to survive as they travel the unknown parts of the galaxy and evade warring factions as well as authority agents out to get them.Dunno what I did the first time I watched this gem, didnt really like it at all. So it took me awhile before I watched it again and damn this is good stuff, fantastic group of caracters in this really tight and funny sci-fi.......
Make sure that you watch this serie in the right order(google it) since the *beep* channel Fox did put them out there in really wierd way. The episod to start this one with is Serenity not The bank job. Allso after you are dune I think you should end this epic serie with the movie Serenity, same name as the pilot but its something else;) - CreatorDavid BenioffD.B. WeissStarsEmilia ClarkePeter DinklageKit HaringtonNine noble families fight for control over the lands of Westeros, while an ancient enemy returns after being dormant for millennia.A mastondont in modern television, see for yourself;)
- CreatorMichele AbbottIlene ChaikenKathy GreenbergStarsJennifer BealsLeisha HaileyLaurel HollomanFollows the lives and loves of a small, close-knit group of lesbian women living in Los Angeles as well as the friends and family members that either support or loathe them.I really hate when people uses words like chick flicks/shows, theres nuthing of the sort. A great drama show about women and their relationships.....
- CreatorLarry GelbartStarsAlan AldaWayne RogersLoretta SwitThe staff of an Army hospital in the Korean War find that laughter is the best way to deal with their situation.A classic must see, hawk eye is the man......;)
- CreatorMatthew WeinerStarsJon HammElisabeth MossVincent KartheiserA drama about one of New York's most prestigious ad agencies at the beginning of the 1960s, focusing on one of the firm's most mysterious but extremely talented ad executives, Donald Draper.Alot about this show is great but for me the interiours and clothes takes it over the edge and makes it into a modern classic....
- CreatorRyan MurphyStarsDylan WalshJulian McMahonJoely RichardsonTwo plastic surgeons--one a dedicated family man and one an unscrupulous playboy--strive to maintain their business whilst having to work their way through numerous hardships ranging from personal to clients with criminal connections.a over the top drama. But it doesnt really matter, because its all lifted up by great acting and extremly wierd stuff goin on every episod....
- CreatorLiz BrixiusEvan DunskyLinda WallemStarsEdie FalcoMerritt WeverPaul SchulzeA drug-addicted nurse struggles to find a balance between the demands of her frenetic job at a New York City hospital and an array of personal dramas.Who doesnt love this messed up wife living her 3-4 different lives, surrounded by funny and warm caracters.....and pills;)
- CreatorGreg DanielsRicky GervaisStephen MerchantStarsSteve CarellJenna FischerJohn KrasinskiA mockumentary on a group of typical office workers, where the workday consists of ego clashes, inappropriate behavior, tedium and romance.Its of course the brittish one that I want on the list, its so much better then the american one. Dunno why I couldnt get the right one on here........Gervais is the master of.......everything and nuthing;)
- CreatorTom FontanaStarsErnie HudsonJ.K. SimmonsLee TergesenA series chronicling the daily activities of an unusual prison facility and its criminal inhabitants.Wanna shower with Adabesi and drop the soap?? Hehe, didnt think so.

- StarsRoy MarsdenMartin JarvisJohn Franklyn-RobbinsMajor Dalgliesh investigates mysterious deaths at Toynton Grange, a home for the disabled, where his former teacher, Father Baddeley, who invited him there, resides.Inspector Dagliesh and the brittsh way of making crime drama at its peak......very enjoyable on a Sunday snuggeled up on the couch.....;)
- StarsElspeth BallantyneBarbara JungwirthBetty BobbittThe lives of the staff and inmates of a women's prison.You probably thinking "whatta f....", but if you get into this show and get to know the top dog and the other caracters you will probably love this really loooooooong serie from down under.....
But remember, this one is huge and will take alot of your time...... - CreatorLarry DavidJerry SeinfeldStarsJerry SeinfeldJulia Louis-DreyfusMichael RichardsThe continuing misadventures of neurotic New York City stand-up comedian Jerry Seinfeld and his equally neurotic New York City friends.Its Seinfeld, George, Kramer and Eleine damnit.........enough...

- CreatorKurt SutterStarsCharlie HunnamKatey SagalMark Boone JuniorA biker struggles to balance being a father and being involved in an outlaw motorcycle club.This is a damn tuff one. Sometimes a very violent show, but its shown in a very realistic way without lame arse special effects.....I might be the only one but I dont really enjoy the fella playing the lead role. Not a good acteur in my eyes.......but the rest is fantastic....
- CreatorDavid ChaseStarsJames GandolfiniLorraine BraccoEdie FalcoNew Jersey mob boss Tony Soprano deals with personal and professional issues in his home and business life that affect his mental state, leading him to seek professional psychiatric counseling.Tony Soprano, whiskey, cigarrs, gun fights, shrinks, strip clubs........The Sopranos.......and italien food.....
- CreatorRick BermanMichael PillerStarsAvery BrooksRene AuberjonoisCirroc LoftonIn the vicinity of the liberated planet of Bajor, the Federation space station Deep Space Nine guards the opening of a stable wormhole to the far side of the galaxy.This list has no order/ranking, except here.....The Star Trek shows are in order/ranking.....my ranking order;) They are all very VERY good in their own way but the one standing out is DS9 for me. So many good caracters in this serie, situated on a space station in a very action filled area of the galaxy. Quark/Rom/Odo/Dax/Sisco/Obrian/Dukat/Garek/Brunt..FCA!!......and many more caracters makes this an epic tale in space. i have seen this one way to many times for it to be normal, so one can say Im addicted to this one......for real.....;)
- CreatorRick BermanBrannon BragaStarsScott BakulaJohn BillingsleyJolene BlalockA century before Captain Kirk's five-year mission, Jonathan Archer captains the United Earth ship Enterprise during the early years of Starfleet, leading up to the Earth-Romulan War and the formation of the Federation.Really never understood why this one is often put at the bottom of the Star Treks. Maybe its because its diffrent and set in a early era of the star trek saga. What I really love about Enterprise is that its very well connected thrue the hole show......and that it has the best caracter EVER in all the Star Treks...Dr. Phlox....;) (skip the last episod though)
- CreatorGene RoddenberryStarsPatrick StewartBrent SpinerJonathan FrakesSet almost 100 years after Captain Kirk's 5-year mission, a new generation of Starfleet officers sets off in the U.S.S. Enterprise-D on its own mission to go where no one has gone before.This is a tie between STTNG and Voyager, but I got to start with one of them. After a pretty poor first season this saga gets goin. Alot of diffrent caracters, and alot "standing by it self" episodes. The humour is one thing that really stands out in this serie, really funny dry homour, love it!!............btw people, Im a trekkie and I dont like Klingons;)
- CreatorRick BermanMichael PillerJeri TaylorStarsKate MulgrewRobert BeltranRoxann DawsonPulled to the far side of the galaxy, where the Federation is seventy-five years away at maximum warp speed, a Starfleet ship must cooperate with Maquis rebels to find a way home.A great drama about the lost crew of two ships that are forced together to make the long long jouney home. Alot of caracters and allso here its the doctor that stands out......and ofcource Captain Janeway;) ( 7 of 9 isnt to hard on the eyes either;)
