- yep. stayed funny. -- nm - Diva May 9, 10:55
My memory may be failing but I think you could make arguments for Chuck, My Name is Earl, even Friends -- nm - oblique May 9, 10:31 2
- Earl is another great choice. - Mel Profit May 9, 10:32
- I was a huge fan of chuck, but I felt it was going on a bit too long at one point ... -- nm - Beryllium May 9, 10:32
The Wire -- nm - Beaker May 9, 10:23 1
- Yup. Though I'd watch another season or three. :-) -- nm - Krusty May 9, 10:44
true detective -- nm - CQ May 9, 10:22 1
- I can't wait for the next go 'round of this. -- nm - Diva May 9, 10:25
Sopranos, Buffy, Fringe -- nm - mud May 9, 10:21
Seinfeld was another correct answer to last board. -- nm - David May 9, 10:19
Breaking Bad. nm -- nm - groiny, crying May 9, 10:18 4
- Seriously. How does a show get *better* like that. Freaky. -- nm - Mop (205 lbs) May 9, 10:26 2
  - well, I think when you know you are going 5 seasons, it is easier to pace it to make it so. - groiny, crying May 9, 10:27 1
    - Babylon 5 *could* have had this, but then it got ruined. -- nm - Beryllium May 9, 10:30
- Yeah, that works. If you ignore the split fifth season thing, at least. -- nm - Beryllium May 9, 10:21
