You watch CSI and talk about how Battlestar sucks? :p

A CS friend of mine and I just talked about Numb3rs today over lunch and 
how much we have a love/hate relationship with that show (love the fact 
that "real" academic topics like complexity theory come up in the show, 
but hate the fact that the hero of the show is a glorified statistician 
who always has a perfect solution for any problem).

I'm almost ashamed (as a self-proclaimed geek) to admit that I've never 
watched a single episode of Babylon 5.

> * I have completed the star treks 

Who hasn't on this list?  (well, actually I've never watched any of the 
episodes of Enterprise, but the original series, TNG, DS9 and most of 
Voyager I've seen).

> where should I directy my attention next? 

Hmm, not sure if it'd be your cup of tea or not (particularly if you're 
not a fan of "cliffhanger-style" shows like Lost), but both myself and 
most of my friends in the department that I've talked to are avid fans 
of the show "Heroes".

> Shows like Lost don't attract me. And I don't like sit-coms either.

Unfortunately that rules out about 90% of the stuff on TV nowadays.  :(
