Meanwhile, SO TELEVISION, Y'ALL.
I've tried asking a few likely people privately, but no one seems in today, with the exception of Very Useful An. I am trying to get a feel from people of what to try next. Do you lot have any recommendations of shows that are good because they have great characters/characterization? Where this is a primary virtue of the show? For example, I enjoy Star Trek and Star Gate, but I would not call them character-driven or good for the same reasons Avatar is. Katy LOVED the show Avatar (not either of the movies), but we've polished it off and need new bloooood.

In Battlestar Galactica (new one, yo), the only thing they do really truly well, in terms of writing, is character, and there's some great ones in there. Also includes Xena: Warrior Princess in some of the episodes, so that's nice.
Sorry for all my American TV tastes :P
