Recommend a TV Drama Series?

Hi. I wanna start watching a TV drama series and would like to see if anyone's got recommendations. I don't really care about the genre as long as the story is good. Here are some I've seen in the past and my ratings of them so you have a better idea of my taste.

Battlestar Galactica - 9.5

Firefly - 8.5

Californication - 8.5

Entourage - 8.5

Dollhouse - 8

Heroes - 8

Skins - 8

Arrested Development - 7.5

Farscape - 7

Anything similar to Battlestar Galactica would be awesome. Thanks =)

Update:

Thanks everyone. That's a lot of great recommendations. I found many TV series in there that I didn't know of and am interested in checking out. =)

    Well, it seems that you love sci-fi series a lot, so i recommend you Stargate SG-1, and also Stargate Atlantis.

    I personally give both of them 8.5, and another sci-fi series that is interesting is Eureka even though it isn't similar to BSG. It's more like sci-fi-in-a-small-town-that-only-few-people-know-about-it series.

    So, i would recommend:

    NCIS - 9

    Castle - 8.5

    Stargate SG-1 - 8.5

    Stargate Atlantis - 8.5

    Eureka - 8

    Veronica Mars - 8

    The Big Bang Theory - 8

    In Plain Sight - 8

    Fringe - 7.5

    I strongly recommend you Castle. The star is Nathan Fillion! And it's funny series with a wicked cool detective :D

    and also NCIS. If you are searching both funny and serious plot, you can count on this show.

    hope you find what you like! :D

    Source(s): I watched many series myself :)

    I would suggest Breaking Bad. 10:00 pm est. on AMC. It's a drama with a kind of dark humor undertone. Not Sci Fi like BG, but I enjoyed it. It's in the early middle of it's 3rd season right now. I would like to say that Arrested Development is a comedy, not a drama.
