<p>I'm from Korea and I will be attending NYU next year. Before college starts, I'd like to learn more about the American culture. Can you recommend several good American TV shows that I can benefit from? Thank you very much!</p>
<p>Watch House. It kicks butt. [Tuesday nights at 9(?) on Fox]</p>
<p>jeopardy, madtv (but not the new episodes), robot chicken, little people big world, jon and kate plus 8, project runway, wife swap, super nanny, american idol, the naked brothers band, grey's anatomy, family guy, hannah montana, spongebob squarepants, arthur, are you smarter than a fifth grader, law and order svu... and many more.</p>
<p>I'm really into Pushing Daisies (or I was before the writers' strike) but it's not that popular.</p>
<p>Sex and the City takes place in New York so that might interest you.</p>
<p>The Office(US), The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Heroes, King of Queens, Scrubs, and if your really want some insight into American culture, Flavor of Love.</p>
<p>Scrubs, House, The Daily Show.</p>
<p>Oh, and also Scrubs, House and The Daily Show.</p>
<p>And there's one more show... what was it called... oh yeah, Scrubs.</p>

<p>i was reading the thread thinking to myself "i can't believe no one has recommended lost!", and then i get to the bottom, and there it is! rockermcr, you are now cool. watch lost! that show is awesome! but so you don't get really confused, i suggest you go to blockbuster and rent seasons 1-3 and watch those before the new season starts.</p>
<p>No, no. I was cool before Lost. In fact, I was cool before television.</p>
<p>real world, laguna beach, top chef, america's next top model, american idol, project runway, the office, scrubs. these are the shows i hear people talk about the most often so i guess it could help you better relate to people here in small talk etc.</p>
<p>THE COLBERT REPORT!</p>
<p>... The Office, Project Runway, Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty</p>
<p>P.S. @Mike41691: The Flavor of Love??! You've got to be kidding...</p>
<p>Pysch, Heroes and House are the way to go</p>
