The ones I come back to time and again are:

1 friends
2 charmed
3 white collar
4 lie to me
5 criminal minds

They're easy watches (for me I appreciate certainly criminal minds may not be for some)

And I've watched them so many times now I know the scripts!

I may watch all the Christmas friends eps tomorrow we'll see
