Each day we will pick one submitted poll at random to post on the site.
Ray Donovan (not really the show itself, I watch it because Ray is kind of an interesting character and that's the main reason I enjoy watching the show), The Newsroom (I didn't like S1, but S2 is quite good!) and Web Therapy. Breaking Bad joined the list last Sunday.
I wish we could choose two alternatives: Under the Dome has since its series premiere taken the prize of my all-time favorite series. But I also enjoy Devious Maids, something about it is just hilarious and... well, devious. I selected UTD, but I wish I could choose DM as well.
I'm missing True Blood and Teen Wolf on that list. It seems all of the listed are not SciFy/Fantasy Shows. Even then my pick would not be one of those ist Strike Back. I really love that show, it is different and smth very refreshing on the screen. action, bromance, sex and a good written plot!
I dropped UTD and Ray after 3 episodes, new season of Teen Wolf and True Blood disappointed me, Graceland is good, but there are things that started to annoy me, so I have to choose Siberia.
Definitely Switched at Birth. And also The Fosters. With Castle, Bones, HIMYM, and Mike & Molly on hiatus (and now Bunheads cancelled D:), both shows give me a reason to look forward to Mondays during the summer.
I find the absence of Covert Affairs, The Killing, Dexter and, especially, True Blood to be very intriguing. My summer shows this year have been: Dexter, True Blood, The Newsroom, The Killing, Under the Dome, Suits and Covert Affairs. It is hard for me to singe out one because I am attracted to different things in all of them and some are longer on their runs than the other so I am more attached to them. I would have voted for Dexter had it been here, but since it is not, my vote goes to Suits, which is a tremendously underrated show. I think the acting, writing and dialogue is fantastic and it has amazing relationships and characters all around that really glue you in.
I absolutely adore Suits to death, but to be honest I find the Louis Litt character to be tremendously overrated (both on the show itself and on the fandom). For me, he is easily the weaker part of the show, I can never find myself rooting for him. Even in 3x02 when Mike turned him down to get back with Harvey and everyone felt sorry for him I just couldn't care, the guy is too much of a cariature for me. This is just my opinion obviously, and I am clear a minority, but I just find it curious that so many people like him so much. (Donna I am right with you there... she is amazing in every scene she is at, I adore her!)
It is the first show that comes to my mind when I think about summer TV (not to say it is my favorite, but it is definitely a summer staple), weird not to see it here
True Blood (very good season but like everybody said... weird finale !). Then, I will go for The Killing and Devious Maids (did not like the first episodes but since the third, it is a good guilty pleasure). Finally, Under The Dome which is quite entertaining but also disappointing !
I have to catch up Dexter, Breaking Bad & The Bridge !
I don't watch many summer shows; aside from Futurama I watched Falling Skies and Under the Dome, but those were/are midly entertaining. Even if this isn't Futurama's best season it often makes me laugh, so that's why I chose it-
I've been trying to recall what episode he was in that turned it around for me,for i too didn't like his character in Suits.. All i remember is he was talking to Donna,and for a second there was a glimpse to another side of Lewis,that's when it happen..
I wish Mike never told Rachel his secret.I don't see any chemistry between them what so ever..
Love Covert Affairs,its a great summer show,just wish Annie and Auggie didn't become an item.The Killing finally had a good season and storyline. Longmire,not sure if i would consider it a summer show but its another show i'm loving.Oh,and Burn Notice has been good too.
Yeah of the 14 shows I have watched this summer (Continuum, Breaking Bad, Sinbad, Primeval: New World, Burn Notice, Under the Dome, Teen Wolf, Falling Skies, True Blood, Longmire, Futurama, Warehouse 13, Defiance, Being Human(UK version)), only 1 of them is in this poll.
Breaking Bad has certainly been my most anticipated.
I enjoy the spin they have put on Annie and August and I like their dynamics pretty much. My only problem was how they got together - it was too fast after Annie being completely in love with Simon to the point of even considering running away with him, to her having a fling with Eyal and then end up in love with Auggie in a very short time span. I think a spark was always there, sure, but they moved it too fast imo. But it doesn't particularly bug me. As for Longmire, I have never watched it!
Well, whatever episode it was, I think it only worked for you, I am still on the other side. As for Rachel/Mike I am really happy with their relationship. I think it has been very well balanced, fun, and with real issues/ complications, not just made up for the sake of having troubles. IMO, the chemistry is all there, but that is a very subjective thing. I think they had the necessary build up and time before it and that it happened right when it should have.
My top 2 options both fall under Other. Without a doubt, Breaking Bad is the best show of the summer. But if you want to go with a show that started earlier in the summer, then Burn Notice is the easy winner. So: Breaking Bad > Burn Notice > Anything Else
Agreed!That is my biggest pet peeve with the show,they all have her liking,or in a relationship with someone.And yes,it was ridiculous having her and Auggie so involved so close after Simon. And what about how Auggie reacted when his girlfriend left him.I thought he was about to kill himself he was so overwrought.It didn't take him that long to find renewed interest in Annie....
Breaking Bad (literally my favorite show of all time) and I really really enjoyed The Killing this season. I've watched a couple others too but nothing as obsessively.
Yeah totally agree about Auggie as well and I really think they could have waited another season to get them together. Some shows seem to go one season too far to get them together (Castle, Bones), but CA did it too soon IMO. Anyway, as I've said, I think it is being very well done so far despite the suddenness of it all, so no major complaints!
If I have the time I may check it out thanks ;) There are just way too many shows, it's hard!
I can't choose just one! Suits, The Newsroom, Rookie Blue... Other good summer shows: PLL, True Blood & Saving Hope. I really need to catch up on Dexter asap!
I Had it on mine as "Other", but either the poll creator forgot that it is on, doesn't watch it, and/or technically this is the first and only summer it has been on, since they were kind enough not to let us wait till fall for the new and final season, which is when it 'should' have been on.
Teen Wolf by a lot. Then Burn Notice and Graceland. I've also enjoyed Warehouse 13, Perception, Primeval: New World, Defiance, and most of Under the Dome. I think Necessary Roughness has been better this season too with the jump to the new job.
I haven't been watching much TV (yet) this summer. The only "can't miss" series for me is Major Crimes. I am really surprised how much Raydor and Rusty have captured my heart. What a tough situation.
I loved Suits, but it really stresses me out. There is TOO much drama for me and I can only take it in small doses.
Under the Dome has definitely captured my interest, but I have only seen 1 complete show so far. I plan on watching more during the post summer / pre fall TV season..
Well Teen Wolf obviously but I voted Pretty Little Liars since it's my favourite of the ones up there. I also like Fosters, Twisted and Under the Dome.
Teen Wolf!! Closely followed by The Fosters, Switched at Birth and Pretty Little Liars. I also love Saving Hope and The Listener on CTV. I'm still trying to decide about Under the Dome.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.

ReplyDeleteRay Donovan (not really the show itself, I watch it because Ray is kind of an interesting character and that's the main reason I enjoy watching the show), The Newsroom (I didn't like S1, but S2 is quite good!) and Web Therapy. Breaking Bad joined the list last Sunday.
ReplyDeleteTough choices. I'd have to say my top 3 favourite new shows are Graceland, The Bridge and King and Maxwell
ReplyDeleteorphan black
ReplyDeleteWhodunnit
ReplyDeleteWhere the hell is True Blood?!
ReplyDeleteThe submitter must've forgotten it.
ReplyDeleteI wish we could choose two alternatives: Under the Dome has since its series premiere taken the prize of my all-time favorite series. But I also enjoy Devious Maids, something about it is just hilarious and... well, devious. I selected UTD, but I wish I could choose DM as well.
ReplyDeleteThere is only one answer to this, Breaking Bad.
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad is the best summer show (or simply just the best show).
ReplyDeleteOther shows I liked this summer is True Blood, the Killing, The Newsroom and Graceland.
Dear Sally, you can't name 14 shows and not name the biggest event of the whole summer.
ReplyDeleteI'm missing True Blood and Teen Wolf on that list. It seems all of the listed are not SciFy/Fantasy Shows. Even then my pick would not be one of those ist Strike Back.
ReplyDeleteI really love that show, it is different and smth very refreshing on the screen.
action, bromance, sex and a good written plot!
Under the Dome
ReplyDeleteMaybe Sally submitted the poll before the show's return.
ReplyDeleteBreaking Bad. Thanks for adding it ;]
ReplyDeleteWhose Line Is It Anyway
ReplyDeleteOrphan Black started in March and ended on June 1st.
ReplyDeleteI dropped UTD and Ray after 3 episodes, new season of Teen Wolf and True Blood disappointed me, Graceland is good, but there are things that started to annoy me, so I have to choose Siberia.
ReplyDeleteTeen Wolf!!
ReplyDeletePerhaps and sometimes with these polls the shows listed are the ones the submitter is interested in rather than a complete list.
ReplyDeleteThat would be my second choice, wish this season had more episodes.
ReplyDeleteTeen Wolf!
ReplyDeleteReturning show: Breaking Bad
ReplyDeleteNew show: Devious Maids
Indeed. That's a shame.

ReplyDeleteThe Newsroom for sure... followed by Under The Dome (if they keep up with the mini dome arc)

The Bridge
The White Queen
Under the Dome
Other: Longmire!

Necessary Roughness has been great this season! Also The Newsroom! And Camp!
