1.Arrested Development - A-
This show is hilarious. One of my favorite comedies.
2. Band of Brothers - N/A
I've never seen an episode.
3. CSI - N/A
I've seen maybe a handful of episodes, but I wasn't impressed. It was dull.

Haven't seen enough of AD to make a judgment.
Band of Brothers is exactly as the hype would suggest. A story that anyone, anywhere will appreciate. 9/10
Never seen an episode of CSI.

Arrested Development is one of the great comedy series. It took a while for me to grow into it. Amazing performances across the board, and they are brilliant at the running gag. 9/10
Band of Brothers is amazing. It looks great, it feels authentic and the characters are very compelling. 10/10
I hold CSI mostly responsible for creating the new wave of procedurals that plague our networks. They are now darker, over-important, and try way to hard to be "cool". This show is junk. First, it really stretches the limits of what forensics can do, almost to the point of science fiction, but its wooden characters and dialogue certainly dont help things either.
3/10

Arrested Development was smart and funny - loved it (is it still on? thought it got cancelled)
Band of Brothers - loved the set of TV movies - Is that an ongoing series now?
CSI I liked it at first, but I like the real counterparts that are on Discovery and so on.

I forgot to mention that I've ran into a few of the remaining Easy Company at gun shows, American Legions, VFWs and Veteran's Parades. The actors definitely portrayed these individuals very well.

I've heard a lot of vet stories while in rehab and the hospital - Most impressive was the man who swam to the beach of a Japanese occupied island for recon - I'm not sure if he was OSS or not but he was highly decorated. He was guest of Honor at a Veterans Day dinner this past year.

True Blood nope.
Veronica Mars Loved the cast dynamic. Was very disappointed when it was canceled. B
The Walking Dead I don't watch this with any real consistency but I do find myself getting sucked in when the roomies are watching....and then kind of groaning at the end of it. B- ish
Arrested Development I like what I've seen. B for now
Band of Brothers One of my favorite miniseries of all time. A
CSI nope.

Deadwood: You know, I always thought it was kind of over-rated. The production values were amazing and there was some amazing dialog and acting, but the storylines just never seemed to go anywhere. I once heard the show eloquently described as "writers masterbating onto the page and actors licking the writer's cum off of said page" and I can't say I disagree.
B-
Firefly: I feel like I've spent more time then I should trying to explain why I don't think this show is all that great and why Joss Whedon's writing annoys me.
C-
House: You know... I feel like giving the highest score of the three to this show is some sort of offense against the T.V. gods, but of the three shows it is easily the one I got the most enjoyment out of throughout its run. Ever episode followed a pretty routine formula and it definitely jumped the shark in the back half, but the prickly House character was consistently entertaining and I also enjoyed watching the doctors babble off medical jargon at one another.
B+

Deadwood
Never seen it.
Firefly
I still really like it, but I've cooled on it a bit since the last time I watched it. It was canceled well before it should have been; while that's a slight against Fox, unfortunately it also works against the show because it makes it feel very incomplete.
B
House
No dice. Just not a fan.

Haven't seen Deadwood.
Firefly is still amazing.
House lost me after the fourth or fifth season.

Deadwood - Only watched 1 episode.
Firefly - Too clever for its own good, and massively overrated.
House - I liked it, but saw its flaws, mostly in its pretentious psychoanalyzing. The character of House was pretty awesome though.
