Review Request: current TV shows. by Zsenitan 05/04/2009, 10:52am PDT
I'm looking for a show that will fulfill the following criteria:

* Currently running
* Has several (3+) back seasons
* Not too creepy/sadistic
* Not too weepy/girly
* Large enough fanbase that it can be procured online
* Genre is irrelevant
* So is country of origin
* Isn't House/Lost/The Office

Ideally I'd like a paranoid, yet hysterical, sci-fi series featuring characters who are clearly unlikeable yet are constantly making out and wearing revealing clothing. Cheesiness is irrelevant: Airwolf in space with bigger tits, or Yes Minister on Airwolf in space with bigger tits, or maybe Rupaul And Mr. T's "The Gay Team" is about what I'm looking for. The WS would rather have a detail-rich crime drama featuring dirty cops and/or doctors, like if House and The Wire had terrible children. I know nothing about the kind of TV that doesn't require subtitles and the mind of a child.
