I’m not really one for reality TV, but I liked Out of the Wild. There is a season in Venezuela, and one in Alaska. Basically, people are dumped in Venezuela and have to make it to civilization (in Alaska, they had to live for a few months if I remember right). The difference is, there are no tribal councils, no cast members planted to cause drama. These people are really surviving. It was good. I’m digging Lillyhammer as well. Doc Martin is a good BBC series. Man, there are soo many I just can’t come up with them now.
Just got done watching last season of Dexter. It has gotten not-as-good but still entertaining. Currently watching "Sons of Anarchy" (or "Fags" as it's known in our house.) Good silly entertainment. Best movie I've seen lately, and one of the best ever "The Fall," is now on instant play.
The tribal council and voting off stuff was lame on Survivor. But I do like the survivalist type stuff. I started watching The Colony, its okay but there is alot of that "planting" people and supplies stuff since it is in a city.
Bubba Hotep.
Also one of my favorite movies of all time. "I felt my c*ck flutter like a dying pigeon..." Poetry.

Sons of Anarchy is on Netflix? I hadn't looked. I actually like the show. Fags... lol.
I will look for The Fall.
Keep 'em coming, I shouldn't be bored ever now.

If you like The Fall, check to see if the have The Cell by the same director.

So disappointed it only ended up being 3 season at 6 episodes each.
Then watch out for Sherlock. only one season on Netflix. 3 episodes per season but they are an hour and a half long each.
Kingdom (Stephen Fry as a small-town solicitor)
Burn Notice (c'mon, it's got Bruce Campbell)
Oh yeah, I just finished the whole series of Trailer Park Boys last week and started Initial D after someone mentioned it in another thread.
Anyone know where I can watch the Trailer Park Boys movie?

Tried. Couldn't get into it. "J-Lo"s voice makes me want to stick a berkeleying gun in my mouth.
Oh, we also really like most all of Guillermo Del Toro's stuff. Pan's Labyrinth, The Orphanage, and The Devil's Backbone specifically.

The original Fast and Furious is on Netflix. No, not the Vin Diesel version, the Roger Corman version. Actually, there's a big pile of fun older racing movies like Redline 7000 and Hot Rod Gang.
The X-Files is out there. As is Warehouse 13, which can be kind of fun. I just got done working my way through Dollhouse, which has a much better long story arc than you'd think from the first couple of episodes.
Also, for car guys, the World's Fastest Indian.

Poopie, you must be watching Queer as Folk (UK).
NSFW .gif of why Poopie's household name for Sons isn't too far off :p
I have to second Sperlo on Archer and Home Movies. The first season of Ugly Americans is good too.
Haven't seen Eureka suggested in here yet so going to suggest that.
I second the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex suggestion, awesome forward view of how the military and police are starting to hybridize, and a view of technology that's still considered part of the singularity.
If you like anime Last Exile has some of the best music composition of any series I've watched as well as an intriguing story.
Speaking of netflix, I got home and found Senna and The Rum Diary in the mailbox. My wife is going out of town this weekend and bumped 2 of my movies to the top of the list. Verry naice!
I would have been a little salty if it were 2 chick flicks!
Looks like you already did Walking Dead. Just Netflix, or can you do Amazon? You can buy season two on Amazon. Looks like you've already seen it though.
If Initial D works for you (I loved it) might try Trigun. Really good. If you want something a little more off kilter in the animated realm, maybe try Desert Punk- I like it, but it's not for everyone.
When it is available ( not sure) you must get Homeland!!! Awesome show! I will second Dexter, but the most recent seasons lack a little of what made them so cool early on. I hope it gets better. If you can find Shameless that is also a great show. i believe it is based on a UK show of the same name, so maybe it would be better to get that version, but Emmy Rossum is worth the price of admission for the US version.

The universe is on netflix, plenty of interesting watching there
