I’m waiting for season 3 of Lost and season 3 of Veronica Mars to come to Netflix. The next thing coming to us is the first 3 seasons of Footballer’s Wives, but then what? Help me people, what TV show should I catch up on next?

Note, I can’t watch intense medical dramas and still fall asleep at night… So what do you recommend?

Jessica, I love Prime Suspect, but I haven’t heard of the others. Going on my list!

Robin, I’ve been thinking about starting on Buffy — there’s about a million seasons to watch. But Homicide sounds like something I might not be able to sleep after… !

I second the Buffy rec…also Battlestar Galactica (I didn’t think I’d like it, but now I’m a junkie) and Scrubs.

I’m new to your blog, so I admit to knowing very little about you. But if you don’t watch “24″ you’ll definitely want to get into that!

Oh, and Firefly.

I get nightmares really easily, but not from Homicide. There’s a lot of internal drama going on in the series. It’s not nearly as graphic as CSI. It’s more about getting in peoples’ heads (psychologically.)

Felicity!!! Or if that is too many seasons or whatever then what about Nip/Tuck? Seasons 1 and 2 are especially good. Or Once and Again? That was only two seasons, I think. Don’t ask me about current stuff. We watch crap on the Science Channel, causing me to dream about string theory and the 11th dimension *yawn*

Scrubs is definitely one to see!

If you’re into Monty Pythonesque humour, there’s always Little Britain, but it’s not something to watch with the kiddies. ;)

I’m a huge fan of House and Grey’s Anatomy too, but I don’t know if they’d go on your top 10 list…
