I may or may not be in the middle of a Grey's Anatomy marathon. :)
I binged that show too haha. I couldn't believe how fast I watched like 8 seasons haha.

I love medical shows. I'm watching House now... in season 5.
Oh god I'm going crazy with it. I know a lot of people liked it but I never realized the goodness that is Grey's Anatomy. :rofl1: It's like a soap opera. I'm starting to think they should all live in one big polygamous family.

I'm rewatching Breaking Bad (again). God I love this show.
I've re-watched that series twice now. Well, sort of kind of. Not like ALL 5 seasons in a row. But sometimes I want to watch one episode and then I go all back into that "OMG WELL NOW I HAVE TO WATCH THE NEXT ONE. I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THIS!" mode :rofl1: and end up watching like 4-5 eps in a row... that I totally didn't plan on watching... It's just such a great show, I can't get enough.

I never thought I'd like GRey's. Thought it wasn't my kind of show. Wrong!! The first few seasons were a lot better than recent eps tho. :(

I can't remember (am too lazy to go thru thread) if you watched Nip/Tuck or not? But we seem to like the same shows... Nip was another one I just happened to click on one day not thinking I would like it. I became obsessed. Of course the first 4 seasons were amazing, and the last 3 were a bit odd, ok really odd, but still SO worth watching. It's almost a weird combo of Breaking Bad and Grey's Anatomy rolled into one. And Christian Troy <3

I haven't been able to watch it the past few days, but I'm fully planning to binge watch again tomorrow haha.

And same here! I watched all the House episodes a couple of months ago... that was bad lol
So glad someone else watched House! I haven't really found anyone else who is into it. I love Wilson and House's bromance. <3 And just love Dr. House's character in general. I'm slowing my pace down a lot because I don't want it to end. I'm at the end of season 7 now.

I watched all of Grey's that was on Netflix and I'm not sure I want to keep following it on regular TV. I agree, it should have ended a few seasons ago. Ended with the crash, maybe?

I've seen a few episodes of Nip/Tuck but it was really odd to me :p.

I've seen mostly all the House episodes...there was a certain point, maybe when Cutty got the baby? Or did she leave? I stopped watching. I loved House. It got dragged out too.

Have you watched Weeds? I loved Weeds too. Addictive. You'd probably like Weeds if you liked Breaking Bad and Nip/Tuck :p.

Caught up with Downton Abbey and we're watching Breaking Bad now. I don't love it though, it's good but doesn't live up to the hype for me, but it's something to do.

Does anyone watch Continuum? It's one of the couple shows with Suits and Doctor Who that I couldn't stop watching. Just really hoping it gets renewed.

I watched it right from the start, and was completely hooked for 4 or 5 seasons. I really didn't enjoy the last few seasons though and never watched them consistently.

Chicago Hope was my favorite medical show ever, but stupid Hulu only has the first 3 seasons, and it is never getting released on DVD. I want to watch the rest of it again!

I'm currently trying to get into Doctor Who, because a few friends who know my tastes well keep telling me I'll like it. But ugh. It is not happening yet. 2 episodes of fart jokes isn't my thing. Please tell me it gets better?

BostonBanker, I never got into Doctor Who. There were a few episodes I enjoyed but that's it. I watched all of Eccleston, some of Tennant and some of Smith. It just didn't happen for me.

I just finished the season with the House/Cuddy relationship and I kind of liked it. I thought it was a bit out of character, but overall, I enjoyed season 7. But they did tend to start focusing less on the medical stories as the seasons progressed, and more on the personal lives. The beginning of Season 6 might have been my favorite when House went to rehab/psych ward. Thought those were great episodes into the mind of House a little bit.

I watched one episode of Dr. Who and just... didn't get it. But maybe I need to give it more of a chance.

I have yet to watch Chicago Hope! I'd probably like it though.

Lol so funny. Yeah some episodes of Nip Tuck were SUPER odd but the early seasons were great IMO. Some of the writing was superb in the 1st and 2nd seasons. So many deep episodes I loved, I don't know how much you watched of those seasons, but when Christian talked about what happened to him as a child to Sean, when he found out he was gonna have a baby, and then Sean's lover committing suicide SO MANY deep eps but I thought they were great. And then you get like the weird eps where Sean is having sex with a doll in a state of depression drunkenness :p

I watched the first 2 seasons of Weeds and got a little bored, but I kind of do want to finish it.

All I remember was someone's son going into prison and having uh...one hell of a time. :p Maybe I will try it though, it does sound like the kind of drama I like.

I just finished all the Eccleston ones. I like it better than I did at first, but I'm definitely not "into" it as much as I hoped. I got into shows like Lost and Firefly by the end of the first episode.

I am thinking I need to watch Torchwood though. I like that character the best on Doctor Who.
