Who doesn’t love watching TV? Nobody (okay, maybe somebody). I thought I’d make a short list of my favorites right now. Here they are:

10. House

I don’t know why I get sucked in into the same disturbingly similar plot line (Someone gets sick. Awesome techno-electronic bass drum beat. House makes several faulty diagnoses. House looks blankly into nothingness. Comes up with a brilliant idea and saves the day.) But for all it’s repetitiveness, the drama is still very real. Thumbs up for exploiting a well-worn plot line.

edit: apparently the drum beat is from a group called Massive Attack.

9. Community

This might seem an odd choice, but the show is really really funny. Maybe because I’m still in a school after so many years. I especially like the extra scene during the end credits. ‘Donde, esta, la biblioteca’

8. The Office

Awkward situations. Awkward boss who finds a way to make everything said about him sound like a compliment. That’s what she said!

7. Lost

A lot of people love this show and it’s almost over. However, I didn’t give it a top spot because I’m weary of J.J. Abrams (wait till you see #1) just getting ‘lost’ in his own mythology. I still hate him for the final season of Alias.

6. Chuck

Well, well, well. Renewed for a 4th season. What can I say? :) The storyline might not be topnotch. But that Australian/Polish chick is just mesmerizing. Reason enough to watch in my book.

5. Modern Family

This show is hilarious. Very creative writers with well-crafted punchlines. Great cast too.

4. Stargate Universe (SGU)

Oh Brad Wright, you had me at ‘SG1′. Now, with more money to burn and better graphics too, this is just sci-fi heaven.

3. FlashForward

Cancelled! I know. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Oh well. Moving on.

2. V

The aliens are coming and they are HOOOT. Besides the pretty aliens, the show is action-packed, fast-paced, and has enough mystery to keep me interested.

1. Fringe

Where do I begin? This show is just plain awesome. J.J. Abrams, you fixed the complex plot issues from Lost & Alias and you give us this amazing show that’s not that hard to follow (a lot of episodes stand on their own), but has such a deep mythology to keep the avid fans glued. I expect great things from this show :) .

There’s a lot of other great shows out there, but I had to pick 10. Any TV Series suggestions? Violent Reactions?

    Wow, I only watch 2 out of your 10 (House and Chuck). Got a bit bored with House lately. Will check the others :D

    2? :D I guess you’re watching something else that’s also good. Care to suggest? Although I daresay, I hardly have enough time to watch all of my Top 10 anymore.

    is fringe really that good? I have copy of their seasons but haven’t gave time to watch it maybe because it doesn’t seem so appealing.

    Really really really good! It’s getting better with every episode. Okay, maybe 1st season is a little slow to develop (and extremely upsetting in the stomach), but after that… awesome!

    yeah House may have this same plot every episode but i dont know i still like House over Grey’s anatomy. maybe because of hugh laurie’s appeal and his character.
