What's good and out there? I'll watch anything from the past 10 years or so, ideally with a few seasons already under its belt.

I'm a fan of:

The Mentalist
NCIS
Jag
Mythbusters
Family Guy
Simpsons
American Dad
Futurama
Sliders
Doctor Who
Game of Thrones
QI (really good, probably unknown to most here: comedy/quiz show hosted by Stephen Fry)

Anything that's like these that is really, really good that you'd care to recommend?

if you like QI, try Never mind the Buzzcocks, Would I lie to you, and Mock the Week
for an American TV show try Lie to Me, kind of like the mentalist.

oh yeah and Top Gear (UK obviously) if you haven't watched it, what I like about it is you don't have to car about cars to enjoy it.
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Breaking Bad
Dexter
Suits, just started watching that show - seems alright
True Blood - if you're into the vampire stuff
Sherlock, 3 90 minute episodes - very well done
Black Books

If you like QI, have you heard of Never Mind the Buzzcocks (british pop quiz comedy show): Season 17 to 22? have the best host / team captains

Can't really think of anything else

edit; oh yea! if you like Sci Fi, Watch Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, The Next Generation and TOS!

Skins (UK) is a really good show. it's more of a drama than all of your picks, but everyone who I've recommended it to thus far has loved it.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

Megas XLR was an awesome cartoon, but only 2 seasons about a fat guy and his skinny sidekick who discover a giant robot from the future.

Always sunny in philidelphia is extremely funny, just random crazy events with a group of friends at the bar they own.

Arrested Development. 3 seasons of very clever humor about a real estate developer's son who tries to control his insane family.

The Wire, right now.

My only regret about it is that it has made it so much harder to watch every other television show, particularly cop shows.

If you like Doctor Who, you'll probably like:
- Due South
- Stargate SG-1

And if you like Due South, you'll probably like:
- Slings & Arrows
- Psych

EDIT: I will add that I have yet to find any TV shows that I love as much as Due South and SG1. They are amazing and don't take themselves too seriously.

I'm addicted to breaking bad at the moment. Addicted. I just started watching it a couple weeks ago from season 1 and i'm just about in season 4 now. Burn through like 4-5 episodes a night sometimes after I get home from work @_@
If you watch Godzilla backwards it's about a benevolent lizard who helps rebuild a city and then moonwalks into the ocean.

It's really well done, sad that this new season will probably be the last

This is an awesome show, one series that I just finished up is Sons of Anarchy which is one of the best series I've ever seen

Psych! Great show, the mentalist totally rips it off and is inferior in every capacity. I can't say enough good things about this show, watch it.
Also Justified was, imo, very good. Especially the first season, its like a modern western with Timothy Olyphant. Check it out if you still want something after you watch psych

Dunno if you'll like it but my favorite show of ALL TIME is actually Home Movies, used to be on adult swim. Its sorta dry humor, but its damn funny.
