The Wire. If you didn't watch it from the beginning, it was very hard to pick up midstream, but it's some of the best written and acted television there's ever been. I heard it described as moving at the pace of a novel instead of a TV show, and I think that's fairly accurate. And it's told from the point of view of the good guys and bad guys simulatiously.
How I Met Your Mother constantly entertains me, albeit in a mindless way.
And my secret guilty pleasures are "Deadliest Catch" on TLC about Alaskan King Crab fishermen, "Flip This House" on A&E about residential real estate developers (actually useful for my job, if you can believe it) and "Holmes on Homes" on TLC where a repair contractor basically comes in to fix all the mistakes made by other contractors and shows little patience for incompetence. As a rule I hate reality TV, but these are the exceptions.
