What's your favorite current crime show?

[charlie and algernon]

[HopeHoops]

1. The Local News.

At least it is real.

[Bryan]

2. The original Law & Order

The CSIs are overproduced and underwritten, and on lighter shows like NCIS, Monk, and Bones the crime stories are just a pretext for the characters to interact.

[charlie and algernon]

5. I haven't watched the original Law and Order since Jerry Orbach died

I really like Vincent D'Onofrio and Jeff Goldblum on CI. I'll also watch a marathon of SVU.

[mikeytherat]

31. CSI: Weehawken

mikey_the_rat

[elocs]

68. I've watched episode after episode of L& O on Netflix streaming videos.

I particularly like the L&O CI with D'Onofrio and have watched the early seasons of that as well as SVU (I'm on the 5th season now).

[kentauros]

3. Even though I don't watch it anymore,

Monk will always be my favorite. There's nothing else out there like it! :D

[Bucky]

4. Mad Men - altho so far the only crime has been assault with a John Deere

But you can tell they've been building up to this moment since season 1

[SteppingRazor]

45. Well, there's also identify theft.

Right, Mr. "Draper"?

[Deep13]

6. Lie to Me nt

[Broken_Hero]

7. CSI Vegas, I'm almost caught up on them

I've seen seasons 1-8, but only a couple of season 9...I'm missing season 7 and 9 out of my dvd set, but I'm getting 9 until it gets near 30$ or less, over 60$ for season 9 and it isn't worth that much, hell no dvd set is worth that much.

[lizziegrace]

8. Criminal Minds n/t

[IcyPeas]

43. +1 Criminal Minds is great!

[GCP]

9. Inspector Lewis Mysteries

On PBS.

[flvegan]

10. NCIS (the original, not the new one in LA)

Jury is still WAY out on the new one. Not too sure about it.

As for the original, last night's episode didn't disappoint, though it could have used much more Abbey.

[charlie and algernon]

13. haven't seen the LA one yet, when is it on?

and yes, we can ALWAYS have more Abby!

[flvegan]

16. I have much lust for her. MUCH lust.

IRL, she's a real sweetheart and a whole 'nother level of hot.

The LA show was on directly after the original, Tuesday at 9pm. No idea if that's going to be where it's parked all season.

[charlie and algernon]

17. she's damn hot

Looked her up on Wikipedia and found out she's also a singer on a couple rock bands. That makes her MORE hot.


now that Warehouse 13 is done for the season, I'll have to check out the new NCIS. Wiki also says Abby will make some appearances on that one as well.

[TreasonousBastard]

34. I remember her from guest spots on "Special Unit 2" where...

she played the liar-in-chief cleaning up the PR messes.

She was blonde then, and there was just something about her that took over the screen when she was on.

[ZombieHorde]

54. Nice picture. nt

[Inchworm]

11. Life

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

27. +1

[Cass]

12. Castle...

I watch it to ogle Nathan Fillion.

[pinniped]

14. I watch First 48 on A&E TV.

.

[rucky]

37. great show! n/t

[Crabby Appleton]

15. Other : C-SPAN

[bigwillq]

18. CSI: Miami (nt)

[Frank Cannon]

83. YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!

[frogmarch]

19. Forensic Files, The New Detectives and

similar true crime shows, followed by Monk and Psych for amusement. :-)

[pokerfan]

20. Numb3rs

http://numb3rs.wolfram.com/601/">The Math Behind Numb3rs Website

[NMDemDist2]

62. +1 n/t

[pokerfan]

67. Tonight is the season premiere of Numb3rs

[Va Lefty]

21. Solved on the ID channel

[tabbycat31]

22. the closer

[emilyg]

23. NCSI and Criminal Minds

[Jamastiene]

63. Those are my favorites too. Well, NCIS and Criminal Minds. n/t

[SeattleGirl]

24. Criminal Minds n/t

[Lindsey]

25. I normally don't watch anything but cable shows because I find

most of the writing/plots on regular T.V. really poor. However, I went on a road trip recently w/a good friend and was flipping channels late one night at the motel and was blown away by "Criminal Minds". They were having a marathon so I watched about 5 shows in a row and was up almost all night! I couldn't quit watching. Now I'm hooked.

[MissHoneychurch]

26. I like that show a lot n/t

[Lethe]

28. all lawyer, cop, and doctor shows are shit

they have been rehashing the same ol plots since 1991.

read a fucking book or something.

[datasuspect]

61. 10 roger on that shit

mindless FUCKING shit-drivel.

my friend INSISTS on watching 8 hours of that shit a day and it unnerves me to no end.

[stray cat]

86. Like a harlequin?

[dembotoz]

29. warehouse 13 in a wierd sort of way is a crime show

and my fav

[Rabrrrrrr]

30. American Idol. Oh, wait, you said "crime" not "criminal". Sorry.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

32. The Closer, the night her niece made pot brownies was funny.

[ZombieHorde]

33. Dexter of course. nt

[Deep13]

36. Of course. nt

[gizmonic]

38. Definitely!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I have a lot of catching up -- have only seen seasons 1 and 2. Just got Season 3 on DVD.

[Lucy Goosey]

72. The best by far. nt

[Bertha Venation]

35. The Closer

[gizmonic]

39. Other: CSI Topeka

:evilgrin:
:hide:

[MissMillie]

40. C-SPAN

:silly:

[Mojambo]

41. I can't stand crime procedurals like CSI and L&O

But I do watch Monk.

[elleng]

65. I love 'procedurals,' was my favorite law school course!

and can't stand monk!

[OffWithTheirHeads]

42. Burn notice

[Shell Beau]

44. I like SVU.

[ceile]

46. The Closer

But I do watch all the L&Os, Monk and Psych. Psych is currently the funniest show on tv, IMO.

[SteppingRazor]

47. I like Monk and Psych. CSI makes me want to punch something...

especially the Miami version. When people ask me what it's like living in South Florida, I often say, "It's almost, but not quite, entirely unlike CSI: Miami."

[Justyce]

48. Criminal Minds. I love that show...

[WildEyedLiberal]

49. SVU - but the season premiere sucked balls

Seriously, what a huge misfire. I hate the new ADA and that asshole new "detective." It's a formulaic show, and it was popular because the formula WORKS. They need to stop screwing with it.

[bookworm65t]

50. Locked Up Abroad on NatGeo

this may not count since the narrator's story doesn't always involve crime, but it is fascinating nonetheless.

[NJmaverick]

51. I voted NCIS but it was really a tie with Psych

[Initech]

52. Gotta go with Psych and Monk.

[demmiblue]

53. Castle & Warehouse 13

On hulu: The Pretender and Monk

[KT2000]

55. Without a Trace

is good but I guess that has been canceled.

[From The Ashes]

56. I watch that too...

call me a geek (or weirdo) but I have the biggest crush on Jack...


Hellllllllo nurse!

[KT2000]

59. Me too!

During interrogation, when he zeroes in on a suspect with those eyes - Yikes!

Did you know he is from Australia? Can't even hear even a slight accent.

[Iris]

57. Saving Grace

[txwhitedove]

58. The Closer.

[madeline_con]

60. You didn't list Criminal Minds!?

What is wrong with you?

[Blue_In_AK]

64. Cold Case.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

66. I like Law and Order: Criminal Intent

The plots are ridiculous, but D'Onofrio and Goldblum are just fun to watch.

[EndersDame]

69. Eureka! it stars a cop!

[Are_grits_groceries]

70. Criminal Minds.

They get the real sickos.

[rvablue]

71. Can't believe I'm the first to suggest "The Wire"

maybe it doesn't fit into the technical definition of crime show.

I've only seen Season One and I look forward to the others.

[JonLP24]

75. It's not a "current" crime show

All 5 seasons are great but it's you're right about the crime show part. It focuses much more then that. I think Season 4 that focuses on the public school system is especially powerful and sad as well.

[merh]

73. Flash Forward, Bones, Cold Case, NCIS (I adore Mark Harmon)

Law & Order, SVU (though Leno has hurt NBC - this show took a hit because they moved it up an hour).

Thank heaven for the online viewing, I have been able to keep up with favorites that conflicted with other programs I wanted to watch.

:)

[Liberal_in_LA]

85. Loving Flash foward, didn't think of it as a 'crime show' but I guess it is

[merh]

87. Sure it is, the central character is an FBI agent trying to solve

one hell of a crime. :hi:

[JonLP24]

74. How do you leave out the First 48 a real crime show?

The most interesting thing about many of the cases is the cops can't charge anything if the ones that are accused remains silent.

[Zavulon]

76. The Mentalist (NT)

[elocs]

78. If I had to name just one show it would be "The Mentalist" also.

It is just lighter and less serious and for me, more entertaining.

[Zavulon]

79. That's why it's my choice.

Criminal Minds is a great show, but it's also cost me some sleep a few times.

[elocs]

81. I enjoy that one also, but it is a bit intense. n/t

[Xipe Totec]

77. The Bush-Cheney fuck you all, we got ours, show! n/t

[Hayabusa]

80. Original Law & Order

No doubt about it, although Psych is also pretty good.

[RobbinsdaleDem]

82. Cold Case.

[annonymous]

84. I like The Closer, Monk, NCIS and CSI.
