Have you guys been looking for new TV shows to watch, but nothing on television is to your liking? The other day I was thinking about the TV shows I used to absolutely love, but unfortunately have ended. There seems to be quite the difference in TV shows recently.
I don't really know what it is but TV shows on now seem to be based in the Regency era... or is that just me? I want to share with you some of the TV shows that I used to watch. These aren't going to be super old TV shows, but they are no longer on television. I recommend checking these shows out if you are unfamiliar with any of them!
1. Monk (2002-2009)
"Monk" is a detective show about a man, Adrian Monk, played by Tony Shalhoub, with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Throughout the show, Monk's disorder causes him to get himself into either funny or dangerous situations. It also, however, allows him to solve cases by noticing the slightest of details that would be impossible for anyone else to find.
2. Psych (2006-2014)
What could be better than watching two idiots pretend to be detectives? Shawn Spencer, a crime consultant, tricks everyone into thinking he is psychic by using his "heightened observational skills." His friend, Burton Guster, provides him with help and acts as his partner on every case.
3. Alias (2001-2006)
"Alias" is a show about a young woman, Sydney Bristow, who works for a covert branch of the CIA. Sydney gets sent all over the world, having to use various disguises to retrieve whatever her boss, Sloan, asks her to. Secrets come out and Sydney has to make difficult decisions to protect the friends and family she has left.
4. The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius (2002-2006)
"Jimmy Neutron" is a classic. Honestly, if you haven't watched "Jimmy Neutron" you are a disgrace. Not only was this an amazing children's TV show, but you can re-watch it as an adult and it's still super entertaining.

He then has to use his scientific mind to save his town and sometimes, the world.

6. The Twilight Zone (1959-964)
"The Twilight Zone" is a television series unlike any other. Each episode could be a different genre, a different story, with different characters, Each episode was meant to have a certain message for viewers, and most episodes included an unexpected and shocking twist.
7. Buffy (1997-2003)

12. Pushing Daises (2007-2009)

There are a couple honorable mentions I want to put in as well. These shows are ones that I either didn't put on the list because I liked them but didn't love them, or they are too clique. My honorable mentions are "Friends," "House," "Castle," and "Firefly."I hope this list provides you with some new great shows to watch!
