I quite enjoyed Galadriel's prologue for The Fellowship of the Ring.

since all of us saw his big baby blues and chiseled jaw step out of the shadows for the first time. are we even watching the same show?

And then a time agent!

People may say 'but—he wasn't Frodo's love interest.' Bullshit, I say. The way Sam and Frodo looked into each others eyes at the end of Fellowship was the most passionate expression of unrequited love I've ever seen. Sam and Frodo were so in love with each other they finished each other's Lembases.

Just mentioned this one in the Utopia comment above. LOL

The God Complex is also very creepy...up until the resolution. Until then, it nails creepy atmosphere to a tee.

Penny Dreadful. Definitely Penny Dreadful. Scared the hell out of me, but I kept coming back for more.

I couldn't watch the first season of Supernatural at night because the flaming mother on the ceiling freaked me out too much.

Weird Summer series? I give you this unsettling plausible Dystopia...

American Horror Story

I invite you to not listen to the haters, who cannot appreciate story arcs that don't come to safe, predictable conclusions. The intrigue, the suspense, and the drama of that show doesn't wane in later years, as they make their way towards the end. Every show has its weak points, but don't you think it's hilarious how…

Battlestar Galactica

Misfits.

The Young Justice incarnation of DC's Lobo.

Heroes. All of them. Don't know why they are bringing this train wreck back from the dead but wish they would just leave it alone.

BSG was unique in a lot of respects. For one, it didn't just nod in the direction of the way US politics and culture was going in the wake of 9/11 - it bloody well rode it good and proper and didn't call it back in the morning. From the miniseries - the bit I always refer people to is the radio conversation Roslin…

Works with reboots too. Take Battlestar Galactica: both shows had the same basic premise of space humans running away from the robots who'd nearly wiped them out, but they each took that idea in vastly different directions.

For you, perhaps. I had to open all my curtains and turn on all my lights.

I was going to go with The Mist but knew that would already be taken with 431 replies. So Absentia, which is a great little piece of indie horror. The ending is a loss of everyone when you aren't exactly expecting everyone to die. BONUS: passes the Bechdel test in spades.
