I enjoy watching Law & Order: SVU, Chicago PD, CSI, and Parenthood. It's unfortunate that Hostages will not be returning for a second season. I can't wait until May 5th: the return of Jack Bauer- 24! :)

I have enjoyed Chicago Fire, now I see breaking some of the actors from that to create the new series Chicago PD, looks good.
Not in the UK but seen clips on the computer.
24 Best thing on the telly ever !!
can't wait for the new series
I regularly watch Grimm and am looking forward to the new season of Game of Thrones, but my current favourite is Breaking bad which we're watching for the 2nd time! And loving it!
Mod
Did you know that in the TV Series 'Castle' the following authors are his poker playing buddies...........Stephen J Cannell
James Patterson
Michael Connolly
Dennis Lehane
Personally I do not like 'Castle'
Never got into it. I am a huge Grimm fan. I also like Person of Interest a lot. This year I've gotten into Blacklist also. I tried Hannibal but just can't get involved. TV is over pretty weak I think but there are a few bright spots.
We sort of posted at the same time Irene. I "sort of" liked castle when it started as I like Nathan Fillion. He's got great comic timing on his lines and can also do drama. But I burned out on the show. I to liked the poker game part but the relationship thing between castle and the detective just got old.
Mod
Also really enjoy Person Of Interest, Hawaii Five O.
My wife also likes Criminal Minds, Chicago Fire, Blue Bloods and Rookie Blue.
Sherlock, Mad Men, MI5 is my current Top 3.

I have never watched Castle, nor have I read any of
's books.
Yeah, I tried the first book with the Castle name on it. That was the last I tried. Too bad.
Once Upon a TimeWhite Collar
Murdoch Mysteries
Criminal Minds
Castle
Sherlock (BBC)
Elementary
Those are my favourites at the moment, and I recommend them all wholeheartedly :) They aren't in any particular order though, just the order in which I thought of them.
Can web series count as well as TV series? Just curious.Am a fan of Big Bang Theory, Once Upon A Time, Little Couple, D.N. Angel, Ouran High School Host Club, Vision of Escaflowne, Sailor Moon, Card Captors , Specatucular Spiderman, and that's it on TV series.
Web series I like is Geek & Sundry's Caper at http:www.geekandsundry.com , Fear Clinic from Fearnet (you can see the whole series on youtube), and the Dead hour which you can watch at http://www.thedeadhour.com

A fellow Ouran fan <3 Who's your favourite Host, though?... Kyoya is my favourite lol
Am a fan of haruhi and the character vic mignogia voiced @Kerry.
Watched the whole 1st season of 'True Detective' (HBO) a couple of weeks ago. What a great series. Hope there is more to come.
Mod
24 !!!!!!
24 !!!!!!
Another series that I forget to mention that is action packed, gripping, great story.
Strike Back
and looking forward to
X111
looks good
and
Chicago PD (not here yet)
I'm getting interested in S.H.I.E.L.D. now. At first it was only mildly interesting but I think it's gotten better. (This is especially true since the events in Captain America Winter Soldier.)I keep hoping NBC will put something on after Grimm I like. Grimm is my favorite program on right now but I found their version on Dracula silly and didn't like it at all. I can't really get interested in Hannibal. I tried. I get what they're going for but it just feels to me like dragging the story out.
Anyway, love Grimm wish they'd follow it with something better.
I also can't wait for the return of Jack Bauer from 24. It is going to be off the hook. One month remaining! :)
Fear Clinic was a pretty good miniseries I enjoyed from Fearnet and the movie comes out this October! I'm excited for it.
Current Favorites:Big Bang Theory
The Mentalist
Elementary
NCIS
NCIS Los Angeles
Person of Interest
Intelligence
Castle
Warehouse 13
....where's Grimm??? You missed Grimm????

Janet, my husband and I both liked the second season of The Following better than the first.

Yes to watching 24. This is our first time watching the show week to week rather than binging.

Sue, my husband and I were so mad that Intelligence got cancelled. That was probably our favorite new show last season. It was so full of action we couldn't understand people not watching and liking it.

I'm watching 24 as well. I'm with Kathryn, this is the first time me and my wife are watching it week to week. We also binged on the previous seasons.
Mod
Oh, that gives me some hope then! Hoping it will be aired as a boxset soon.
Mod
Oh good. Glad you and Kathryn are watching too!

I know what you mean Kathryn. I think a lot of it has to do with the time or slot when it is scheduled to be shown. For us, it was on a Friday night from 10:00P.M.-11:00P.M. Not always a convenient time to watch. But my husband and I loved watching it.

The first episode was on right after both NCIS and NCIS LA (both good shows) and it did great, then they moved the rest to Mondays at 10p and it was all downhill from there. I wished that instead of canceling a good show, they would try to move it to another time slot and see if it does better. Oh well, seems to happen every year with a handful of good shows.

I have watched the first three episodes of Intelligence and I am finding it difficult to get in to. The main characters just do not work for me. Sorry Kathryn, will not lose any tears over its cancellation.What does hurt in the decision not to pick up series 8 of Supernatural by uk TV.

It's okay, James. I guess lots of others couldn't get into it, either. I'm getting over it now with my summer shows coming back.

Just ordered the Blu-Ray Complete Fourth and Final Season of Nikita, for my husband for fathers Day. Will be delivered today.

Enjoying the new 24, to watch The Viking, Intelligence, X111, Games Of Thrones, Band Of Brothers, Breaking Bad, Chicago P.D (all on my computer)
On planner, falling behind on The Following(not sure of second series), Arrow(6-7 episodes behind), Criminal Minds, The Americans, Ice Road Truckers.
Up to date and watched all of The Blacklist, Blue Bloods, Chicago Fire
I am absolutely glued to 24. I'm planning of getting the books in the near future! :)
I have to start season two of Orange is the New Black
Never heard of 24? I am going to see if it is shown in Toronto.
Mod
Cannot believe it Sue.
It ran for nine years 2001 to 2010 and one of the most watched programmes, sold all over the world.
This series is a one off returned series of 12 episodes, it takes place in London.
24 changed how ALL series looked, with the spit screens, action packed, gripping and tense, major characters being killed off, just brilliant.
Try to watch the previous nine series first, then the new one, it will make more sense then.

Never heard of Jack Bauer, Sue?

I love that show, also. I quite often picture Castle and Beckett as characters in the books I read because they are so likable.
