Warehouse 13
Dollhouse
NCIS LA
Life
Saving Grace
Simpsons
Modern Family (although I dont know for how much longer as the first episode was pretty poor)
Legend of the Seeker

Fringe
Flash Forward
Burn Notice


Some others that I enjoy but are not on at the moment are

Ghost Whisperer (Sad I know but I just have a thing for Jennifer Love Hewitt)
Rescue Me (god will someone please pick this up and show the last couple of seasons)

There you go - some ideas for you but of course its all subjective, some people like one thing while others hate it.

Re: What Else to Watch?

From the programs you've listed as watching, I think you'd definately like Fringe. It's in its 2nd season and the story arc is progressing nicely.

Re: What Else to Watch?

Given the OP's list I'll avoid NCIS or Bones


Definitely try Fringe if you haven't already. And there is no Lost in there. Is that just because it's not on at the moment or you don't watch it? Because if you don't, you should.
