Dead Like Me - oh, the language!!

I'm Israeli, but watch almost exclusively (like most people here, I 
think) American or British TV. 

I can't watch anymore shows like Law and Order, Strong Medicine and 
such. I find them sensationalist, manipulative and insincere - and 
inflated with self importance <apologies to the fans>. 

I've become a huge Joss Whedon (Buffy/Angel) fan recently, and mostly 
watch and rewatch my Buffy and Angel DVDs. I've watched Firefly and 
loved it, by the way - highly recommended.

I prefer watching tv series to movies, so have tried several - I got 
somewhat addicted to Alias, but got tired of it at some point. The 
storyline is just too preposterous and I've never been able to take 
conspiracy theories seriously anyway. 
 
I've tried Dead Like Me and liked it - but not enough to continue 
watching. I don't have a problem with the language, though. 
In fact, the shows I like the most tend to be HBO. Six Feet Under is 
amazing and I'm waiting for the Video library to get season 3. Another 
strong language favorite of mine is Queer as Folk (not much sexual 
innuendo there - all very explicit!). 

I'm not sure it's produced any more - but did anybody else find the 
Chris Isaac Show surprisingly good? 

I've tried Babylon 5 but couldn't go beyond the '50s-looking sets and 
wooden acting. I've even tried to skip to season 2 and it was better - 
the sets look like they're from the '70s. Should I persevere (move to 
season 3)?
