Good show not on Sunday night

A big complaint of mine, as well as lots of other people, is that almost all of the good TV shows are on Sunday night.

This is a thread to maybe give people some options for the other nights of the week.

I'll start off with Louie on FX Thursday nights.

What are everyone else's favorite shows not on Sunday?

Let's see:

Strikeback on Cinemax - Friday nights
Fringe on Fox - Friday nights
Wilfred on FX - Thursday nights
Castle on ABC - Monday nights
Futurama on Comedy Central - Wednesday nights

and that's just off the top of my head. give me about 10 minutes and i could come up with another ten.

Re: Good show not on Sunday night

When you say..."Good show" I assume you mean consistently good episodes week after week?

Nikita - Friday nights on The CW

Person of Interest - Thursdays on CBS

Grimm - Fridays on NBC

The Vampire Diaries - Thursdays on The CW

Southland -- Mondays on TNT

And as Deftones said...Strike Back -- Fridays on Cinemax

Friday: Magic City and Boss on STARZ.

F/X has a history of putting their top dramas on Tuesday. Not to mention the best comedy on TV: The League on Thursdays during football season.

Right now? Nothing, I don't watch anything except on Sundays.

When the Fall season starts things will change, a lot.

Re: Good show not on Sunday night

The Sunday problem is a big one for me too, and I think it does hurt the networks that load up their Sunday schedules with their best shows. I know I am less likely to try out a new show on Sunday than any other night.

Anyway, my favorite non-Sunday shows are:

Southland (Tuesdays)
Fringe (Fridays)
