You can stream Slings and Arrows from Netflix, or so my friend KT told me. Awesome show!

Ooh, have not seen that one, either! I'm not a big tv watcher until I go on a marathon binge.

[sperrywink]

Totally awesome show! Each season is only 6 episodes, so totally marathonable, and it is all about the happenings at a Shakespeare festival. Each season centers on a certain play and the happenings at the theater are reflected in that.

Besides you can't beat Paul Gross, Martha Burns, Mark McKinney, and Don McKeller!

*adds it* I'll watch the first ep and see what I think of it. :)

[sperrywink]

You won't be sorry! *g*

Middleman! IDK if it's Netflixable, but if it is, do it!

Also, AtLA. Of course.

Doctor Who! I love it! I already wrote THREE stories for it! :P

I think not all of it is on Netflix yet, but it's coming!

[monanotlisa]

Middleman is also WONDERFUL. Wendy Watson! Noser! ♥

They are made of LOVE!

Ooo! I'm going to second this rec, actually! That's an amazing series!

[mizubyte]

I haven't seen any of the shows you mentioned. Hm...

I will recommend Being Human as awesome, and I also have an addiction to Burn Notice and Criminal Minds

[were_duck]

I +1 this suggestion! S&A is one of my very favorite shows ever full stop. I think the first ep is the weakest--it gets on its feet in ep 2 and stays there through all 18 eps of the show.

Being Human isn't streaming, but I added it to my DVD queue. \o/

[green]

YAY! I definitely want to watch it when I get the time.

[green]

Yeah, I started watching the first episode and I was a little lost and bored. But I'll give it another try for sure!

[isis]

Please do - this is my favorite show ever. It doesn't really get going until ep 2.

I just voted for Arrested Development so I can live vicariously through your marathoning. Won't get to watch it for a good, long time. :(

[green]

Aww. I will watch it for you, bb! :D?

[sillymom]

We're watching The Wire episode by episode. Treme, which was made by the same people, was even better, I think--we watched that first.

[green]

Thank you, bb! I've not seen any of the Wire and I know it comes highly recced. *adds it*

:D

Let's see how that works out. x) Good luck quitting smoking! :D
