- CreatorHart HansonStarsEmily DeschanelDavid BoreanazMichaela ConlinF.B.I. Special Agent Seeley Booth teams up with the Jeffersonian's top anthropologist, Dr. Temperance Brennan, to investigate cases where all that's left of the victims are their bones.From the chemistry between the leads to the story-lines, everything clicks!
- CreatorDavid GreenwaltJoss WhedonStarsDavid BoreanazCharisma CarpenterAlexis DenisofThe vampire Angel, cursed with a soul, moves to Los Angeles and aids people with supernatural-related problems while questing for his own redemption.Is, was and will be the best series ever for me!
- CreatorChris CarterStarsDavid DuchovnyGillian AndersonMitch PileggiTwo F.B.I. Agents, Fox Mulder the believer and Dana Scully the skeptic, investigate the strange and unexplained, while hidden forces work to impede their efforts.It was on shaky grounds after Mulder left...well, somewhat left...but the first six-seven seasons were the best ever.
- CreatorEric KripkeStarsJared PadaleckiJensen AcklesJim BeaverTwo brothers follow their father's footsteps as hunters, fighting evil supernatural beings of many kinds, including monsters, demons, and gods that roam the earth.What could have beat the rising of the devil and apocalypse? Well, ask these guys! Absolutely amazing show!
- CreatorJ.J. AbramsJeffrey LieberDamon LindelofStarsJorge GarciaJosh HollowayYunjin KimThe survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together in order to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island.The end implied that it was all a collective shared dreamlike experience or whatever, but up until that moment, this one kicked all others' @$$!
- CreatorCarter BaysCraig ThomasStarsJosh RadnorJason SegelCobie SmuldersA father recounts to his children - through a series of flashbacks - the journey he and his four best friends took leading up to him meeting their mother.Friends got boring after a while, but this one never gives you a reason to invoke the Lemon Law.
- CreatorAndrew W. MarloweStarsNathan FillionStana KaticSusan SullivanWhen a psychopath commits murders based on novelist Castle's books, Detective Beckett seeks his help to solve the case. He decides to work with her and uses his experiences as research for his novels.Nathan Fillion gets his much deserved break, and a chance to go all out with his charm. Can't imagine anyone else playing Castle. Nice stories and a unique concept. Good entertainment.
- CreatorTom KapinosStarsDavid DuchovnyNatascha McElhoneEvan HandlerA writer tries to juggle his career, his relationship with his daughter and his ex-girlfriend, as well as his appetite for beautiful women.A perfect role for DD and a welcome sight after the X-files. Hank Moody is to male sex what Fight Club is to male aggression, IMHO.
- CreatorDavid ChaseStarsJames GandolfiniLorraine BraccoEdie FalcoNew Jersey mob boss Tony Soprano deals with personal and professional issues in his home and business life that affect his mental state, leading him to seek professional psychiatric counseling.The ending was left a cliffhanger, but i, for one, applauded it!!
- CreatorFrank DarabontStarsAndrew LincolnNorman ReedusMelissa McBrideSheriff Deputy Rick Grimes wakes up from a coma to learn the world is in ruins and must lead a group of survivors to stay alive.Awesome hi-tech gore with a decent storyline. Vampires and Zombies have been so overdone in all media, but something like this series gives it the much needed rejuvenation.
- CreatorJoss WhedonStarsNathan FillionGina TorresAlan TudykFive hundred years in the future, a renegade crew aboard a small spacecraft tries to survive as they travel the unknown parts of the galaxy and evade warring factions as well as authority agents out to get them.If only it had been give its due by the execs...
- CreatorDavid HemingsonStarsBradley CooperNicholas BrendonJohn Francis DaleyA bad-boy chef runs wild in his New York City eatery.This one had great potential, but the black-coat corporates ruined its chances....just like Firefly.
- CreatorGary Scott ThompsonStarsJosh DuhamelJames CaanJames LesureWelcome to the Montecito Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, where you can do anything you want, but Ed Deline and his crack surveillance team will be watching. Just remember: what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.Smart, funny, sexy and laden with loads of entertainment, it never had a dull moment!
- CreatorRyan MurphyStarsDylan WalshJulian McMahonJoely RichardsonTwo plastic surgeons--one a dedicated family man and one an unscrupulous playboy--strive to maintain their business whilst having to work their way through numerous hardships ranging from personal to clients with criminal connections.
- CreatorAlan BallStarsAnna PaquinStephen MoyerSam TrammellTelepathic waitress Sookie Stackhouse encounters a strange new supernatural world when she meets the mysterious Bill Compton, a southern Louisiana gentleman and vampire.Awesome story-lines and a great cast. Although the love part is a bit overdone, everything else about it is cool.
- CreatorRon KoslowTrevor MunsonStarsAlex O'LoughlinSophia MylesJason DohringAn immortal vampire and private investigator struggles to exist after he was bitten 60 years ago by his vampire bride. He is also internally tormented as he falls in love with one he should not.I am still scratching my head as to why this one was canceled after just one season.
- CreatorSteven S. DeKnightStarsAndy WhitfieldLucy LawlessManu BennettThe life of Spartacus, the gladiator who lead a rebellion against the Romans. From his time as an ally of the Romans, to his betrayal and becoming a gladiator, to the rebellion he leads and its ultimate outcome.Clearly inspired by 300 in every way but stands upright in its own right. Loved the season finale; no melodrama, no cliffhangers, just pure simple mayhem!
- CreatorDavid ShoreStarsHugh LaurieOmar EppsRobert Sean LeonardUsing a crack team of doctors and his wits, an antisocial maverick doctor specializing in diagnostic medicine does whatever it takes to solve puzzling cases that come his way.
- CreatorJoss WhedonStarsSarah Michelle GellarNicholas BrendonAlyson HanniganA young woman, destined to slay vampires, demons and other infernal creatures, deals with her life fighting evil, with the help of her friends.Takes a backseat to Angel, but still displays some of Joss Whedon's best work.
- CreatorGarry MarshallStarsRon HowardHenry WinklerMarion RossThe Cunningham family live through the 1950s with help and guidance from lovable and almost superhuman greaser Fonzie.All thanks to the Fonz!
- CreatorSteven LevitanStarsTony ShalhoubNeil Patrick HarrisEddie McClintockA neurotic book editor is paired with an eccentric writer.I, for one, liked this one.
- CreatorCarol BlackNeal MarlensStarsFred SavageDan LauriaAlley MillsKevin Arnold recalls growing up during the late 60s and early 70s; the turbulent social times make the transition from child to adult unusually interesting.
- StarsMitsunobu KanekoToshiyuki TsuchiyamaKôichi ChibaA young boy aids in the fight against a terrorist organization as the sole controller of a prototype giant robot.My childhood favorite.
- CreatorJoe GlaubergGarry MarshallDale McRavenStarsRobin WilliamsPam DawberRalph JamesA wacky alien comes to Earth to study its residents and the life of the human woman he boards with is never the same.
- CreatorDavid BenioffD.B. WeissStarsEmilia ClarkePeter DinklageKit HaringtonNine noble families fight for control over the lands of Westeros, while an ancient enemy returns after being dormant for millennia.Very well made, with great story, great actors and great sets. But if you have read the books it is based on, the number of major deviations from the books can be frustrating.
