Good call on Action by the way Drizzle...although it went downhill fast after the lead actress left.

I like Jay Mohr enough, but Action was atrocious.
Had Profit queued up for a few years now and need to get around to watching it.
As far as recent shows go, Happy Town is incredible.
think ABC is burning off the rest of the first, and only, season this summer.
Obviously Firefly, Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared..

a dramatic groundhog day like abc miniseries with taye diggs playing a cop who gets framed for murder, im pretty sure they never aired the whole thing which is why im curious as to how truth saw it all on tv

the prisoner is an amazing show and imo only rivaled by F&G and The Profit out of all named so far, but i purposefully avoided it since it's from 1968 and i'm not sure how the whole seasons thing worked back then in the UK. plus i was aiming for more modern shows
it's highly recommended regardless. you in particular would likely love the shit out of it

The show was pretty
but it was still really enjoyable/intriguing. The lack of closure made it all the more
only thing I hated was this little dickhead who sucked at acting.

yeah, I remember that. But, why cast him when all the other actors are stellar (yes, Luke Perry). Not like it gives it anymore authenticity because he's actually awesome at surfing.
