Never seen BREAKING BAD but after watching WEEDS for two seasons (which wore out its novelty by season three for me) I doubt I'd be up for another family in the drug business.
I thought ORPHAN BLACK was one of the best shows in recent years. So imaginative and quirky. And that actress is bloody fantastic!
JUSTIFIED would have been the next one. I thought it suffered from a weak season last year and hope this one is better. SCANDAL is pure fun. It never makes sense but it keeps you interested.
I want to thank you and Todd Mason for bringing ORPHAN BLACK to my attention. I really liked it and I'm counting the days to April 19 when ORPHAN BLACK returns.

I would have BREAKING BAD and JUSTIFIED at the top of my list.
Well, two of mine are on there. Jackie likes SCANDAL too. I don't watch it.

Breaking Bad and Justified are at the top of my list. Also enjoyed Orphan Black, Ray Donovan and Dexter.

Definitely ORPHAN BLACK. And while I know not everyone liked it, I also enjoyed THE AMERICANS.
Darn, I forgot that one, Al. That's what happens when shows have runs early in the year and then go away. I am adding that right now.
I haven't seen ANY of these. I'm even more behind on TV than I am on reading.
Probably "the following" was my favorite new show for 2013. I also liked Almost human. I haven't seen any of these others here.
Really liked History Channel's THE VIKINGS.

Loved BREAKING BAD and now hooked on MASTERS OF SEX.
And a farewell to TREME, which was low-key but enjoyable for ambience.
Need to catch the last season.
