What do you consider to be the modern classics of TV (in the last few years)? Have there been any programmes that will last the test of time?

What makes something a classic?

You see, I did the same for the first few episodes, then caught one by accident and was hooked.

It's a mix of The Sweeney, Twin Peaks and something new. Completely different and worth watching.

I never watched Life On Mars, maybe I should have. I just saw police drama and forgot all about it from then on. I cant stand the excessive amounts of detective/police shows we have on TV.

Life on Mars is another. So well written, it left a hole impossible to fill when it finished.

Battlestar Galactica.

Its something quite rare for the sci-fi genre. Most sci-fi tends to be quite vacuous in that it lets settings and the action carry it along. BSG has depth of plot/characters that you're lucky to find in any genre nevermind sci-fi. And most importantly in doing that havent sacrificed the shows 'sci-fi'ness to achieve it.
