Just completed all the seasons of Dexter. Awesome series! Loved 1st season the most. Felt like slamming the writers for the finale of season 6!!!

Big bang theory has been having cheap jokes this season. I watch it only for Penny and Sheldon

On cheap jokes, I think HIMYM is also going down the drain except for Barney being the saving grace.

I would highly recommend Modern Family for now. Strictly no-nonsense jokes, no background laughter and awesome acting by the team has won hearts!

Onto Season 8 of 24 now and getting started with Seinfeld

Recently started watching Big Bang Theory. Its nice

Also, I keep watching a lot of repeats of Two and Half Men as I dont seem to get enough of it.

Been thinking of watching Dexter but, havent been able to due to lack of time. Will catch up to it soon.

My other favorite serial these days is "Kuch Tho Log Kahenge"

The new season of Big Bang Theory is an absolute laugh-riot!

Even more so, if you've been following the show, because the characters come into their own and you get to know them better as the show progresses. Sheldon Cooper is a class apart!

Season 1 & 2 were aired on Start World. Its currently Season 3 in the US; which means Star World will air it in a few months in India. I don't wait till the channel telecasts though

Any one watches 'Chidiya Ghar' on SAB TV?

'Gadda Prasad' is an awesome character. Nice show after long time on SAB TV.

Chidiya Ghar - YouTube

I watched How I met your mother till season 5... Season 6 wasn't interesting to me.
Two and a half men was hilarious as long as it had charlie sheen.

I'm hooked to Big bang theory , supernatural and dexter .. all amazing brilliant shows!
I love the lightheartedness of big bang theory!

Two and half men highlight is Alan. When Chalie Sheen was there, it was really good. Even after Chalie Sheen, Ashton Kutcher is nice. However, Alan's role became boring. He lost his subtle cheapness that he showed while Charlie was there. Now in Season 9, he shows he is outright cheap.

Big Bang theory is great. Love each and every season so far.

I am making full use of the TATAsky HD plus. Love the trio of Jeremy, May and Richard on top gear. Thanks to BBC. Haven't been able to see the Indian show yet but would love to have an India show by them. BBC also has turbo channel which is great. Just put it on anytime. Autocar by Hormazd is cool too. Then there's star world having great comic series like modern family (miss it terrible), top chef, etc. try them.

Star world. Unfortunately, season is off these days. Will have to wait for new season to be aired. It's awesome though.

mjumrani · 26th January 2012, 18:15

Right now I am following The Big Bang Theory, Supernatural, House, Dexter, Bones (which is getting a bit boring now), Two and a Half Men, and How I Met Your Mother.

Now waiting for the new seasons of Spartacus, Game of Thrones, Tog Gear, Terra Nova.

Out of all these I am most hooked to all except How I Met Your Mother, Bones, and Terra Nova.

It is not aired here in India. I watch it online.

I also love the series Titus. It was just aired for 3 seasons and it was one of the best series with dark humor. Apart from this Rowan Atkinson's BlackAdder is an excellent series with dark humor.

I also like Whose Line is it anyway. I only loved the episodes where Drew Carey was the host. The UK version was nonsense and did not like it one bit

If you have a tata sky then go to channel 218 to watch the world's biggest comedy channel, comedy central!

Yes, comedy central is now in india and you can catch shows like south park, saturday night live, kumars at no. 42, goodness gracious me, and a host of others.

Last month a kid at home was watching Shinchan on hungama tv and I just watched one episode with the kid. Loved it. These days I don't miss any of the episodes on weekends. Its hilarious.
