We recently watched the Twin Peaks 1st show, but Rose found it tedious and dated. Oh well for now. Not familiar with Lillyhammer, but it's in our Netflix que. Sopranos, of course. I recognize those scenes in NJ. I forgot to mention Sleepy Hollow. I went there for my 8th grade class trip. We walked around the cemetery and the historical museum. Battlestar Galactica was the bomb! You have to watch it. I think Ice watched the whole thing in 3 days. Check out Farscape while you're at it. Great fun! And the all-too-brief Firefly. Lexx got more funding as it progressed, but started out as too hokey (as sci-fi goes) and we never watched it to completion. Recently watched all of Deep Space Nine, and TNG, and Enterprise before that. I think of T-Pol whenever I meditate by candlelight at night. We also thoroughly enjoyed Rescue Me as a very entertaining drama. Nothing deep there, but well-written. Not familiar with Good Samaritans, but Orange[ is the New Black is also a favorite. True Blood was too 'teenage' for me.

All I can say is Twin Peaks might grow on you if you can give it a a dozen hours. It does have this campy, melodramatic soap opera flare w/ a most peculiar cast of characters w/ absurd idiosyncrasies in a small town life, but steers far off course from just a simple whodunnit mystery (into a world where archetypal dream visions, synchronicity, occultism, demonic possession, and extra-dimensional realms abound. It's far out

Reminds me of this clip from Portlandia about Battlestar Galactica, titled "One More Episode" I will watch the pilot tonight.
~ Here are a few other resources I thought of:
Netflix original programming: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_original_programs_distributed_by_Netflix
HBO's : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programs_broadcast_by_HBO
Showtime http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programs_broadcast_by_Showtime
I found Meadowlands quite good, though canceled abruptly after first season unfortunately. Absolutely adored the show Huff - do check that out if you haven't heard of it, one of the best shows that apparently nobody really ever watched, only lived for two seasons.
and Dead Like Me was quite entertaining as well, though you may find it a little teenage as well.
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.
