Game of thrones: Cause it's fucking amazing on so many levels. Character development is 360 where you end up loving characters you started out hating and vice versa. The plot is twisted and manipulative keeping you on the edge of your seat. The atmosphere covers aspects of socio and economical turmoil that are underlying yet very informative factors of a story line etc. Original Dr. Who...I am talking about the stuff from back in the 70's. In many episodes it is very cheesy and the story lines may be cookie cut. But I give the earlier episodes kudos based on the fact that it transforms itself into a very awesome story. The Wire: no question, one of the best shows I've seen, just because it gives you insight on how a city deal with widespread poverty, crime, and violence. Twin Peaks: Another show that needs no introduction. Several years ago I was hit with a nasty cold that left me out of work for 3 horrible days. Twin peaks kept my mind at ease and allowed me to recovery. Great show!
