TV series advice

[normal]

Hello. Me and Mrs. Normal like to relax with a TV show after babby has gone to bed. We've watched Dr. Who and The Mentalist. We enjoyed The Mentalist VERY much, but now we've seen all the episodes available for download. We download the new Dr. Who each saturday, but we need a new show to watch every weeknight.

Does anyone know a good series that is a bit cheeky and charming like Dr. Who and The Mentalist is? Or if there are no more cheeky and charming shows out there, any series, and why you like them? Halp!"1!

Dexter.

I absolutely love the Dexter series. Season 4 was just awesome.

I found it a little anarchic and loud but you youngsters should enjoy it.

It's a bunch of old folks in their retirement who have a second childhood. Gentle observation humour.

I feel suicidal just from listening to the opening refrain. I fucking hated that programme. Yes normal. you'd enjoy it very much.

Oh, but some action too! Can I have some action too? Not very much, but a bit of excitement!

Life on Mars was enjoyable. Edge of Darkness is a bona-fide classic. Our Friends in the North was epic.
GBH probably my fave though.

Don't make 'em like that anymore.

Fawlty Towers? John Cleese runs a holiday hotel with his nagging wife, useless Spanish waiter and pretty all suffering Maid (played by Cleese's real wife at the time). British farce meets mid-life crisis mental breakdown.

Why do I feel Normal is taking the piss whatever he posts here?

Stick with Dr Who - send the missus to bed, and knock one off over Amy Pond / Karen Gillan. It's how I spend most of my spare time these days.

Maybe it is my language. Perhaps it sounds a bit piss takey when I translate on the go from Norwegian to English in my head while typing?
