Check out my blog category "Pilot Marathon" from part 1 to part 9.

This should give you some ideas.

Most of what has been suggested are fairly new TV shows.
Given your avatar and tag line - would you be interested in older, maybe even B&W TV shows?
I could mention several that I enjoy, but for now I'll limit myself to one:
M Squad starring Lee Marvin. Audio and video quality leaves something to be desired (in a few episodes a lot to be desired, actually), but content-wise it's really very good.

Wow, thanks alot guys! Alot of great suggestions! Really appreciated. :)
I think i'll get me some of them in the new year sales here!  :-[

And GSyren, i do like older tv-shows, and B&W.
"Murder She Wrote" is one of my fav's. (not that its b&w or anything)
but a bit 'older'.  So i will look up 'M Squad' see what its about!

Thanks again all :)

If you can find them, Science Fiction Theater, Thriller, Alfred Hitchcock Presents and Alfred Hitchcock Hour.  

Didn't mention Twilight Zone because many already have them.  Others are a little more obscure.

Some good drama and police shows from earlier TV era.  And really like the old black and white.  For dramas (police etc) it adds a bit of flavor to them.

Another really good one and one that I am looking for is "12 O'Clock High".  It is said to be on Netflix so think I will watch there for a bit to get the feeling again.  Got a subscription to it for Christmas so will be checking a lot of old ones out to see if i want to buy them or not

I do like a lot of the earlier TV series although some of them haven't traveled time very well <G>

Thomas,

A good place to look for older TV Shows is Timeless Video.
You can usually find some episodes of these shows on Youtube if you want to see what they're like.
And if you see anything you like, you can of course buy these DVDs through most R1 dealers, like Amazon.
I have got several of their releases. If you've read Ed McBains books then you'll probably like 87th Precinct with Robert Lansing as Detective Steve Carella.
