Best Current TV shows

This is probably the best show on television currently. Bryan Cranston gives it 100% in every scene and he's never off his mark. Great chemistry between him and his co-star Aaron Paul - their Emmy wins are much deserved.

Timothy Olyphant has such great screen presence and Walton Goggins continues to blow me away. The writing and characters on this show are great.

If you've watched The Shield, you already know Shawn Ryan is a genius. He's done it again - The Chicago Code is the best thing on broadcast television. Superb writing with strong characters and a great cast. I'm especially impressed by Delroy Lindo's acting. Chicago is a pretty beautiful place too and gives it a unique feel.

You might think that being a zombie show means this is all about action, but it's not. They focus on the characters and it's really good stuff.

This dude travels around attempting legendary food challenges from local restaurants, like eating a six pound burrito in 25 minutes or something crazy like that. Most of the times he wins or at least comes close. Amazingly, he is not dead yet.

My favorite comedy on television. The kid actors are kinda hit and miss, but the adults are great.

Very strong reboot of the classic series with a great cast, some truly amazing stunt work and fight scenes, beautiful Hawaii scenery, and of course that theme song...

The series finale already aired on Direct TV but the final season is just starting on NBC. Truly an amazing series with great actors all around. You don't even have to like football to enjoy this show.

From the same man behind Friday Night Lights (Jason Katims) comes the drama Parenthood. I decided to check this out cause several FNL stars like Minka Kelly and the excellent Michael B. Jordan have recurring roles. I'm glad I did. All-around great cast and the situations are real/heavy/emotional.

Fun espionage show - I love the voiceover narration giving spy tips. I'm sure most of the tips are made up, but they sound cool at least. Even though the main character is played by Jeffrey Donovan, the real star of the series (for me at least) is Bruce Campbell.

A genuinely funny show with very clever writing. I'm not really into the whole "shipping" thing so I don't think I'll ever get extremely invested like many others are. But it's a consistently entertaining hour of television.

An HBO comedy series from the genius behind Seinfeld (Larry David). The cool thing about this show is that there's no strict script to follow and the actors are encouraged to improvise their lines, so it often leads to funny things.

Never thought I'd watch a show about a serial killer and root for him, but Michael C. Hall is THAT damn good. The villains are usually fantastic too (especially John Lithgow in Season 4) but the rest of the cast is kinda sub-par.

This show is pretty much a geeks dream. What I love most about it is the incredible amount of recognizable guest stars - the casting department really does a great job.
