I have an odd relationship to TV watching nowadays. I practically never watch using my television, usually only on the laptop. There is no longer a cable hookup to my TV either. And as for what I watch, I much prefer something I can marathon. As far as starting a series now I am now not watching to conclusion, maybe just 1-3 seasons in. There are ongoing shows that I'll watch until the finish (Mad Men, House of Cards barring a terrible drop in quality), but otherwise I'm looking for more variety.
Recently things I've watch included Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia (still pretty funny, but not to the level I remember), Generation Kill (pacing was often slow, a cast of mostly forgettable characters) Alpha House (bad political satire which is made worse by Garry Trudeau, the principal 3 characters are decent with John Goodman being the standout), Yes, Minister (good political satire, very droll...), Battlestar Galactica (almost done with the first season, some confusing loose ends, religious undertones and their significance are odd to judge).

I saw the first two seasons and burned through them quite quickly. Very interesting show. I saw a bit of the third season, but I think my interest dropped off like it has with a lot of other things.

Its a very interesting show. I thought recently that you probably would have worked on it. I saw it on AmazonPrime and marathoned it in just a few days. Haven't seen the second season since it isn't included with the streaming service without additional fee.

Haven't stayed up on that for a while, but it was decent while I watched.

Great show, one of the best I've seen. I have no trouble loathing most of the characters though. Their motivations are easy to understand but hardly sympathetic for me.
And what's interesting, all the characters in House of Cards have something on their conscience - but it doesn't prevent you from liking them. I can't say that I don't like Frank or Claire - because I certainly do. Even if they're bad people. Or maybe I'm bad as well?
