Farscape

• 19 March 1999 – 21 March 2003
• 4 Seasons 88 Episodes + 1 Miniseries / long movie (Farscape: Peacekeeper Wars)
• Farscape features a diverse ensemble of characters who are initially escaping from corrupt authorities in the form of a militaristic organisation called the Peacekeepers. The protagonists live inside a large bio-mechanical ship called Moya, which is a living entity. In the first episode, they are joined by the main character, John Crichton (Ben Browder), a modern-day American astronaut who accidentally flew into the entrance of a wormhole near Earth during an experimental space flight. On the same day, another stranger is picked up by Moya: a stranded Peacekeeper named Aeryn Sun (Claudia Black). Despite his best intentions, John does make a few major enemies; the primary of these is known as Scorpius. There are a few stand-alone plots, but the show gradually unfolds progressive arcs beginning with their recapture by the Peacekeepers, followed by John’s search to find another wormhole back to Earth, and an eventual arms race for weaponized wormhole technology. Secondary arcs explore the way in which the characters change due to their influences and adventures together, most notably John over his obsession with wormhole technology, his relationship with Aeryn and the neural clone of Scorpius that haunts him in his brain.

• 14 Episodes
• Five hundred years in the future, a renegade crew aboard a small spacecraft tries to survive as they travel the unknown parts of the galaxy and evade warring factions as well as authority agents out to get them.

Almost Human

• November 17, 2013 – March 3, 2014
• 1 Season 13 Episodes
• In 2048, the uncontrollable evolution of science and technology has caused crime rates to rise an astounding 400%. To combat this, the overwhelmed police force has implemented a new policy: every human police officer is paired with a lifelike combat-model android.
  
  John Kennex (Karl Urban), a troubled detective, has a reason to hate these new robot partners. Almost two years previously, Kennex and his squad were raiding the hideout of a violent gang known as the Insyndicate, but ended up being ambushed and outgunned. Kennex tried to save his badly injured partner, but the accompanying logic-based android officer abandoned them both because the wounded man's chances of survival were low and it wouldn't have been "logical" to save him. An explosion then took off Kennex's leg and killed his partner.
  
  After waking up from a 17-month coma, Kennex has to deal with a cybernetic prosthetic leg and huge gaps in his memory, which he tries to recover through visits to a black market memory-recovery doctor called a Recollectionist, in the city slums. Besides trying to remember as much as he can about the raid and the Insyndicate, he is also coming to terms with being abandoned by his girlfriend Anna.
  
  Kennex is then recalled to the force by Captain Sandra Maldonado (Lili Taylor), and partnered with a standard-issue MX-43 android, which he soon throws from a moving vehicle, when it threatens to report his unusual behavior. He is assigned a replacement android, an older DRN model originally decommissioned for police work and about to be transferred to the Space Station.[2] Created to be as close to human as possible, the DRN androids have trouble dealing with some of their own emotional responses, which was the reason they were replaced by the logic-based MX units. Kennex's unit, known as Dorian (Michael Ealy), immediately proves himself unique, with a clear dislike of being referred to as a "synthetic", and a dry, friendly sarcasm-oriented wit. Key to the story arc is the growth and development of Kennex and Dorian's relationship.

From Dusk Till Dawn! I want season two to come out already because ten episodes of the Gecko Brothers shooting people (and snake people) up just isn't enough )x
For all those interested, you can catch it on Netflix or the El Rey channel

1. Psych
2. Psych
3. Psych
4. Psych
5. Psych

But final season was kind of a disappointment.

There's a lot of series that I watch and enjoy, but there are no series that I love nearly as much as Psych.

6. Brooklyn 99
7. Brooklyn 99
8. Brooklyn 99
9. Brooklyn 99

It's my current favorite series. It's so hilarious. I am on the edge of my seat, waiting for season 2.

10. Modern Family
11. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (still haven't managed to watch the latest season)
12. Parks and Rec
13. Scrubs (excluding season 9... haha)
14. Better Off Ted
15 30 Rock
16. Enlisted

Yeah, I tend to like my comedy shows. Like, a lot.

17. The Blacklist
18. Criminal Minds (particularly when Mandy Patinkin was still on it)
19. Life

I also watch a lot of procedurals, but these are just my current favorites. They're in no particular order, but they were the ones to immediately come to mind when making this list.

20. White Collar
21. Suits

For these last two, I really, really enjoyed their earlier seasons (1-3 for WC, 1-2 for Suits), but my interest fizzled out. I might pick up the series again, but it won't be for a while.

  This is the only motor vehicle show I legitimately watch on my own, not just because my Dad happens to have it on TV when I come upstairs. I also legit enjoy the show, mostly the specials and the really random funny episodes.

Bob's Burgers

• 09 January 2011 — Present
• 4 Seasons 67 Episodes
• The show centers on the Belcher family, who run a hamburger restaurant on Ocean Avenue in an unnamed seaside community (informally known as "Seymour's Bay" among the show's writing staff).[8] Series creator Loren Bouchard commented in a 2012 interview that the show's location was an indeterminate Northeastern United States shore town.[9] Entertainment writers have later described the show as being set in New Jersey, citing the season three episode "It Snakes a Village".[10] The restaurant is located in a two floor building sandwiched between a funeral home and a building where tenants come and go on a regular basis, and the Belcher family lives in the apartment directly above the restaurant. Bob's Burgers is a struggling restaurant situated on a commercial street that relies heavily on traffic from the local amusement park, Wonder Wharf, which is located on a pier at the end of Ocean Avenue and owned by Calvin Fischoeder, an eccentric millionaire who also owns many buildings in the town, including the one where Bob's Burgers and the Belchers' home is located.
  
  Success is not easy, as Bob must compete with several other eateries for business. His biggest rival is Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria, the owner of which Bob particularly dislikes. Bob's restaurant also has seen its fair share of bad luck. For example, in the show's open, Bob's Burgers falls victim to a fire, an infestation of vermin, and a utility pole that falls over and crashes into the building. In spite of all this, Bob does have a loyal but small group of regular customers including Mort, the owner of the funeral home, and Teddy Francisco, the local handyman.
