Best TV series on Cable

[Heisenberg]

I just started watching Homeland. Wow Amazing! i have seen 14 episodes in 2 days.

Prepare yourself because it jumps the shark hard towards the end of season 2.

Do you still enjoy watching it? Or has it gone too far for you? I still really like the show, but a lot of people i have spoken with feel its gone too far.

George Romero says Hi.

I believe Breaking Bad is almost flawless.

It's insanely entertaining at its high points but it's also ridiculously convoluted.

Why are their only dramas and South Park listed and some of those dramas are over? Of the ones listed, Mad Men is appointment TV for me. But Big Bang Theory has renewed my interest in sit-coms and Family Guy is better than South Park. I also just recently caught up on Guys with Kids over the Christmas break.

I'd be pretty much done with it if my fiance wasn't so intent on watching it.

I think it went from a highly compelling spy thriller to a laughably ridiculous drama that is way too over-the-top for the world it created in season 1.

My interest in the show is pretty much non existent at this point.

There is no way you can say that with a straight face.

Yet, I did...

I think South Park jumped the shark once BASEketball came out. Trey Parker and Matt Stone have been mailing it in for years, especially now after Book of Mormon (Monumentally hilarious). To be fair, I don't watch a ton of Family Guy anymore either, which really is an amalgamation of the Simpsons and South Park.

By the way...Apparently the guy who played Elder Cunningham in Book of Mormon (Also played the keyboard player in The Rocker with Emma Stone and Rainn Wilson) is in 1600 Penn. That alone will make me give it a chance.

The Wire Season 4 may be the best season of television in the history of cable television.

And as someone who watches both, South Park is better than Family Guy. Family Guy jokes are getting either too long, or too stupid. American Dad passed Family Guy a long time ago. That's where the comedy is.

A friend and I were talking about this just the another night. We both agree season 4 is truly awesome television.

Well,
I picked from the best of the Cable shows IMO. Family Guy isn't a cable show. It's a network TV show.

I'm cool with that...That said, I think a lot of quality entertainment was missed (i.e. Rescue Me, The Shield, Daily Show, etc.). Plus the only reason Fox brought back The Family guy is because the ratings it got on Adult Swim (Cartoon Network). but C'est la Vie...

Familky Guy has 3 great season (S1-S3), 1 good season (S4) and a bunch of crap after (everything after). South Park maintained a high level much longer even if now they just parody current events. And it goes without saying that The Simpsons in its prime (the 90s) was better than either have ever been.

For me currently it's:

1. Game of Thrones
2. American Horror Story
3. Breaking Bad
4. The Walking Dead
