The Wire is my favourite, particularly series 1,3 and 4.

One of few tv shows that doesn't treat an audience as if their stupid, really good dialogue between characters. Gritty realism with no room for sentiment.

Honourable mentions:

Sopranos

Breaking Bad

Sons of Anarchy (yet to complete)

X-Files (the first tv show I became hooked on as a teenager)

I also found Fringe, 24, Prison Break and House fun to watch, though they weren't particularly layered nor intricate and episodes were a little 'samey' at times.

Sopranos-15 years old and still awesome

The Wire-very well written.

The Shield-One of the best cop shows I've seen.

Deadwood-A badass western show that could be measured in swear words per minute

Breaking Bad-Best thing I've watched in a while. And like the product in the show, it's addictive.

Adventure Time-yes it's a cartoon but it's not really for kids.

I've only ever watched the Sopranos all the way through. I normally give up after a few episodes.

Other programmes I've enjoyed and want to watch all the way through are

Modern Family

Deadwood

Broadwalk Empire

The one I'm really enjoying at the moment though is Duck Dynasty but I don't think that'll be winning any Grammys.
