Am nearly mortally wounded by the near-certain termination of TSCC (and whatever remains of Agent Ellison) and am so disgusted that I find it difficult to recommend anything, lest it get immediately cancelled and I'll be to blame.
However, on that note.........I'm going to pitch Supernatural to you *dodges tomatoes* Admittedly there's a pretty big ick factor (especially with the first season stand alones) but the on-going story arc is so powerful, the artistic values so high, the acting, directing, and effects so awesome that in the end I conquered my squeamishness and am now hooked. There's even lots of humor, not quite as black as Dexter's, but much appreciated all the same.
Someone up above rec'd Mad Men and I heartily agree - some people say it takes time to warm up to it, but I've been in love since the beginning. Weirdly intriguing.
So that's it. Except now, more than ever, LOST. A show that never dumbs down and just keeps getting better, year after year.
