I was thinking the other day (always a bad thing) about how it seems that lately TV has been getting smarter and smarter. I think, if this trend keeps up, TV will finally be better then film. alot of new shows are well written with Character and diolouge driven plots.

sure they still are making crap like C.S.I. and According to Jim and the reality crap (I watch some of them but still think the most of them are crap) , but alot of shows are getting better and better.

Here is a list of shows i think are really good and really smart. some have been canceled but were within the past few years and are still available on DVD. this list in ne particular order. and because i don't have cable i can only list shows from the broadcast TV I have.

 

Law and Order: SVU (NBC)

Law and Order (NBC)

Law and Order:CI (NBC)

Arrested Development (FOX)

Lost (ABC)

Alias (ABC)

The Office (NBC)

History Detectives (PBS) [this is the only news/reality show i think is actually smart]

My Name is Earl (NBC)

House (FOX)

Medium (NBC)

How I Met Your Mother (CBS)

Bones (FOX)

NCIS (CBS)

Numbers (CBS)

Re: Smart TV
I like The Office and My Name is Earl. I can't stand to watch crime or cop shows except for The Shield.
