When the X-Files season would come out I could watch them in a day since its my all time favorite show.
Shows like Smallville, Buffy, and Angel normally take me about 3 days or so.
Shows that were short lived ( Tru Calling, The Lone Gunmen, Wonderfalls, Harsh Realm, Dark Angel, Dead Like Me, etc. ) Usually get spread out over a long period of time because I have a soft spot for shows that didn't last long on the air and I try to pace myself and make them last longer.
Half hour shows can usually be watched in a few days but most of the time I take my time since the plots are generally only episode specific and not something that carries over during the entire season.

DVD Talk Legend
Firefly plus Serenity in one sitting. I had to work a double shift (20 hrs), and my buddy let me borrow the set.
That's the only series I've ever watched all through in less than a week. Normally, I netflix my tv shows, so I get through a set in a month or so.

Due to the library's three-day loan on new releases I've watched all of the Sopranos and Deadwood seasons in three days per season and that includes a lot of the extras.
I rented Curb Your Enthusiasm from Netflix and watched them in two days. Then ended up buying them.
Watched a few seasons of the Dick Van Dyke Show in three or four days.

I've finished seasons of OZ in one day. Also 24's (especially season 3, my favorite!) in 2 days.

DVD Talk Special Edition
After watching an episode of Battlestar Galactica on NBC that time they showed it, I figured it was good enough to watch all the way through.
The Pilot Movie was on DVD, and the Best Buy set was out (which doesn't have the pilot, the new set does) so it was either buy two inferior pieces or wait until the "good" set comes out with both.
Well I chose a 3rd option. BitT.
And this was when season 2 was already playing. I buzzed through the pilot, season 1 and season 2 up to "The Final Cut". "The Final Cut" was the first episode I saw on Sci-Fi in its regular time frame. I think I watched them all in a week, which isn't as impressive as the other times on here, but thats my best story.
And I have to say...watching a TV series in that compressed time frame...I kinda liked it. If I had the will power I'd like to watch all TV that way. Although you are devoting 3, 4, 5 days to this one thing, think of the time it frees up during the TV Season.
I'm currently Netflixing "Curb" myself, but not as fast as the previous poster. I'm mixing in some movies, too.
