I've seen some of the original Doctor Whos, but not the new stuff...so I hope that wasn't the one you were counting on me seeing.

Wow this show is not as well watched as I thought. It's just cause almost everyone I know is watching it. Ranging from 18 to 58. So I figured it must be pretty popular.

Actually it was. I figured it's sci-fi and it's British so you must watch it.

I can really recommend it. It's great stuff. That is if you like shows about thousand year old aliens who look like young men flying around in blue police boxes that are really bigger on the inside and fighting aliens who ride around in metal salt shakers on wheels.

I felt the same way.

Play time for more hints. I'm assuming you haven't seen any of the remaining three shows so let's try something else. Somewhere in my last few posts I've actually named one of the remaining series.

Happy hunting!

Correct! I'm surprised it wasn't guessed earlier. It was quite a popular show and ran for 9 seasons. It's also been my favorite show for the longest period of time so far. From my 13th till my 19th.

Only two more to go. One of which I already mentioned the title somewhere in my previous posts!

(00.00) 1. The Big Bang Theory (TimovieMan)
(00.22) 2. The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest (UPtimist)
(01.23) 3.
(02.21) 4.
(02.51) 5. Alias (UPtimist)
(03.15) 6. Doctor Who (Lucien21)
(03.45) 7. The Adventures of Tintin (TimovieMan)
(04.46) 8. John Adams (UPtimist)
(05.40) 9. Wycliffe (UPtimist)
(06.13) 10. House M.D. (SweetDalilah)
(06.42) 11. Waking the Dead (Lucien21)
(07.13) 12. ReGenesis (Lucien21)

That's the one! It was a short lived crime drama about a young female FBI agent with a troubled past hunting down serial killers. It was created by Tim Minear who also wrote for Firefly and the lead role was played by Rachel Nichols who also starred in the final season of Alias. It was very, very dark especially for a network show (ep1 started with an FBI agent cutting her own face off) which is probably why it got cancelled. I was so pissed at Fox at the time since I was completely hooked on the show. They didn't even release it on DVD! (though it can be watched on youtube)

Nope, I think you missed a hint somewhere. The series has a female main character.

The only one I know is
Spoiler:
Anna Pihl


Though I kinda hope it's not that, because I might not have time to do the next one quite yet if I win (though I'm not sure yet, and I do have a list ready)

And that makes Lucien21 the winner of this quiz. He has the same amount of points as UPtimist but one more correct guess which outranks the number of points. So go ahead Lucien21. Surprise us with another amazing quiz. And don't take your sweet time. I need my TV-theme fill.

For those who don't know Irene Huss here's the trailer for the complete first season(no subtitles sorry)
