Recommend me some TV shows
Ideally the show I'm looking for contains most of these attributes:
(1) draws me in within the first 5 minutes of the first episode (I have a low attention span).
(2) mentally stimulating
(3) good sense of humor (eg. Arrested Development is good, How I Met Your Mother and The Office are extremely fucking lame and I hate anyone who enjoys those shows)
A good example of what I'm talking about is House of Lies. It's both smart and hilarious. Suits is also good (mainly b/c of Harvey, the main character is kind of a faggot although I admire his intelligence).
Here are my opinions on other shows that I've watched or attempted to watch:
* Dexter - first season was incredible. 2nd and 3rd were good. I got bored once he got married
* Burn Notice - good although I stopped watching it a while ago
* Sherlock - decent
* Game of Thrones, watched 4 episodes but couldn't get into it
* Mad Men - watched 1.5 episodes and couldn't get into it
* White Collar - I hate that old guy and don't give a fuck about his relationship with his fat wife
* Breaking Bad - wasted 30 mins before saying "fuck this" (should've seen it coming though b/c I didn't find the premise even remotely interesting)
* Californication - gave it like 20 minutes I think
* Workaholics - stupid and not funny
* Seinfeld - Classic
Also I don't watch anime anymore but my high school self enjoyed the hell out of Death Note and Elfen Lied.
Ok given what I just said, recommend me some shows. Actually you can go ahead and recommend me movies too. Non-fiction is ok too.

Agree with ai215. Maybe try watching the Kardashians or something.....?
I always recommend The Wire to people, but since you did not like Sherlock, GofT, or MM I guess you would hate it, too. Even though it is the best thing ever put on television.......
You might like The Family Guy or The Cleveland Show.

While I'm glad to see you enjoy Seinfeld, I have to say, if you dont find the Office hilarious, you're hopeless.
