    Has anyone else watched Survivors? It's a remake of a BBC show in the 1970s and ran for two seasons until it was cancelled last year. Great show, deals with survivors of a post-apocalyptic Britain after more than 90% of the population had been wiped out by a virus.

    Sci-Fi:
    Doctor Who

    Comedy:
    The Mighty Boosh
    Garth Marenghi's Darkplace
    Look Around You

    None of those comedies are still running, but they are hilarious.

    I need subtitles for their programming! I actually have two BBCs in my direct tv package and enjoy them very much. They even show consecutive reruns of the Xfiles at normal hours.
    Anyhoo, skins and dr. who, maybe the greatest time traveller since Marty mcfly, are my faves to watch. Just bloody awesome mates.

    Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see Black Books or Spaced listed. My other choices are already listed by others.

    I'll second Misfits. Awesome show, clever and not afraid to push the boundaries. I'll also add my voice to the chorus of voices in support of Top Gear.

    My wife and I watched Series 1 over the past few nights.

    Awesome show. There is some great laughs in it, too, without taking away from the 'serious' nature of the show. Nathan is freaking hilarious.
