Default Netflix - TV on DVD - what do you recommend?

...oh my goodness...I am having such fun! My friend told me about how well Netflix has worked for her so I had to try it...it's going to save me a lot of money on the TV on DVDs because I had been buying them. Now I can try them and if I really really like them and will watch them repeatedly (like M*A*S*H) then it will be worth it to buy them. I hadn't realized Netflix would have these TV on DVD seasons...and such a variety!

My queue is becoming quite long...however there are so many TV shows I didn't even know existed or do not know what they are about (it does give you a summary)...but what are your favorites?

Mine are:

M*A*S*H (my number 1 TV show)
Hogan's Heroes (although I did get tired of it)
Home Improvement
EUReKA (just bought recently)
SOAP (just finished watching the first season on Netflix)

What are your favorites...maybe that I might like to watch but hadn't tried?

I don't care for blood, guts, gore...not too hot on medical shows (although I am going to see what Doogie Howser MD was all about)...

I used to love watching:
Night Court (remember Judge Harry?)
Gilligan's Island
Candid Camera
Moonlighting
Dallas

I like to laugh....what do you suggest?

Big Bang Theory is one my favorite current shows... I can't wait for Drop Dead Diva to come out on DVD... it's still in first season right now. Another one that I've become fan of is Mad Men... I think Nikki is the one that got me hooked on that show... not a comedy, but entertaining...

I'd have to think... I'm just not clicking with other sitcoms that I used to/am watching... Scrubs, The Office, 30 Rock, 10 simple rules, Yes Dear, Just Shoot me, King of Queens...

My two all-time favorite comedies are Everybody Loves Raymond and FRIENDS.

LOST is the best show on tv ever and 24 is a close second

I recommended both LOST and 24 to my parents right after they got netflix and for about a month solid, all they were ever doing when I called was watching one of them lol.

If you like Brit TV & humor, you'll like The IT Crowd (IT as in information technology) It is SOO funny! I wish they'd show the current season on a channel we get!
