The Americans (2013)
Centers on Russian deep-cover spies operating in the United States in the 1980s.
So far I like that the timeline deals with factual events in the 80's. This was a great era to set the show in as America was gripped with cold war paranoia and anti-Russian politics. The show centers on the two Russian agents and so far seems to be rather balanced with the ideologies. I like a good spy show and having the political and personal relationship conflicts between the two agents adds to the tension.

Follows teams of cops and psychiatric professionals who make up the Psych Crimes and Crisis unit.
Update - Season Two ~ Bah, so aside from the 'we can replace one blonde actress with another random actress, Detective Aidan Black manages to turn into a complete ass by season two. I guess the show was too emotional and needed to 'butch up' for season two. Well, you officially lost my interest :P
Dr. Jason Cole is a highly respected neurosurgeon who has it all - a lucrative career, confident charm, and the gift of compassion. But he also has a deep, dark secret. One morning, when he wakes up disoriented in a wrecked hotel room amidst several near-naked women he's never seen before, he knows one thing: it's happening again.
Basically a modern version of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde". Might be interesting.
Canceled after only airing two episodes! Gah, and networks wonder why people are watching less network tv.

What I tend to watch...
This is listed by what I give priority to watching. Every thing else I sort of watch on and off.
Revenge (2011)
Season one was pure revenge filled enjoyment. Season two is far more of a soap opera but I'm hooked now and make an effort to never miss an episode.

Sherlock (2010)
If there were any complaints about this show is that it has sort of ruined any other Arthur Conan Doyle adaptation. I would prefer if this isn't me being a snob but just another over zealous fan.
I do think that series three is going to be rather hard to pull off and might end my fan boy delusions.

Game of Thrones (2011)
I wait for the full season to come out on DVD then watch then rent the series. I hate cliff-hanger episodes.
jaytoast's rating:
Love the show, hate the season end cliff hangers!!! Why when we typically never know if a show is even going to be aired for another season?
This is one of the few shows filmed in Portland, OR where 'spotting locations I know' isn't a distraction but an extra enjoyment.

I watch some pretty dark and depressing films so, this an American Horror Story sort of take a back seat to whatever is in my film queue.

DVD - Streaming
ReGenesis (2004)
Streaming on Hulu
I have no idea how I found this tv show but I fell in love with the first episode. One worth re-watching IMO.
ReGenesis is the highly-acclaimed procedural drama about NorBAC, the North American Biotechnology Advisory Committee. Headed by the brilliant but unpredictable biologist Dr. David Sandstrom and CIA Executive Director Caroline Morrison, they are the first responders to bio-terror attacks, rapid epidemic outbreaks and potential mass killers that are all around us, but virtually unseen.

I really enjoyed the first three seasons but I don't think I'll make the effort to watch season five.

Six Feet Under (2001)

Missing (2012)
I actually liked this show and it was up for several awards. So, in the proud tradition of dumping any show with potential ABC canceled the show... something they are well known for doing.

Hunted (2012)
There are still rumors that this might return as a US export but that has typically been the kiss of death on any UK produced tv show.

Lost Intrest
True Blood (2008)
The sexy supernatural thriller sort of hit a peak with me by season three. I just simply stopped caring about any of the characters.
jaytoast's rating:
I think I lost interest around season four, just too depressing and whinny. "I went to Hell" "I lost my soul" "I'm demonic"... bla bla bla...
jaytoast's rating:
Meh, there really isn't anything new to this show. Which surprised me considering all the high praise. I found it to be another boring British Aristocracy tv show. If it weren't for Maggie Smith I doubt I would have watch more then two episodes.
jaytoast's rating:
Arrow (2012)
Pure entertainment trash. Which is fine but I would rather watch reruns of old tv shows.

Trying to figure out the best way to sort what I am watching, what I have watched, and what I might watch.
