No TV show at the moment. I just finished Darker Than Black, which was pretty good, but I need to find something else to watch.
I just finished reading Foundation and then leaped over the fantasy side of the fence to A Song of Ice and Fire
I have been playing more Skyrim but I'm about to find something else to leap into. I want to finish Dragon Age Origins and The Witcher 2 but I'm scared I'll run into a fantasy overload, so I'll probably dive into something else. Maybe play through Mass Effect again... but then, I don't really want to overload myself on Bioware games either. Arkham City? Well, after a Christmas break of playing open-world games, I should probably play something linear.
In other words, I'm in a transitional period on all of those things, if one can actually be in a transitional period of media consumption.
TV: American Dad, Bob's Burgers, Archer and occasionally The Big Bang Theory. Most of the newest episodes show up on demand so I'll watch them while eating breakfast.
I just finished read Dune a few days ago, and it's really good. Definitely deserves the title "Science Fiction's Supreme Masterpiece."
Game:
I'm currently playing Ni no Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch, I'm about 10 hrs in, and they are still introducing new things. This game is really great, and on top of that, it can take up to 80 hrs to get all trophies.
Oh, and just to clarify, I like really long games, so 80 hrs is not a bad thing in my book.

80 hrs is great... except when you have to deal with school as well. Why couldn't this game have come out before Christmas ;___;

Have you watched Breaking Bad? It's pretty easy to recommend man.
So I've heard.
Have you watched The Wire? It's pretty good too, man, but not in the same way as Breaking. While Breaking is more of a thriller with really awesome dialogue, The Wire is more like a book. Real dense and has high expectations from the viewer, with some sick authenticity that no other show has.
Bob's Burgers / German Quickly, The Edwardians, The School Among the Ruins, A Clash of Kings / Sleeping Dogs, Mark of the Ninja, The Last Remnant (I'll probably abandon this one), and XCOM: Enemy Unknown
@gillagorilla: IRL but if people are interested in an online book club, I'm all for it. There is a goodreads giant bomb group but it didn't really go anywhere.
Currently watching old sherlock holmes, switching to doctor who or tutors next.
book, "Wild Fire" by nelson demille, secert american group want to use nuke on themselves, so government will nuke all of middle east. ok so far
game, Saints row 2. never played it before and got it on psn plus for free and its great, and does seem longer than third. don't know what I'm going to play next but may try and get hands on XCOM
I watch maybe an episode or two of Buffy the Vampire Slayer per week. I'm at the beginning of the fifth season right now. That's a great show.
I spend by far the majority of my free time reading Steven Erikson's Malazan Book of the Fallen series. I'm on the fourth book of ten right now, and they are just fantastic. I started reading them as sort of a time-killer between George R.R. Martin's book releases, but in many ways I'm finding that I like these books more than A Song of Ice and Fire, and they have the benefit of being a complete series, which is nice. As fast as I can read them, there's another one waiting right on through the end.
And as far as video games go, well, the game I play most is Drop 7 on my iPod Touch. The last non-portable game I spent a significant amount of time with was XCOM: Enemy Unknown, but it's been a little while.
TV: Waiting for Game of Thrones and Walking Dead to start again. Otherwise I just watch reruns off whatever old shows I love to watch Book: Don't read... barely even read for university to be honest. Game: FIFA 13, but waiting to get a part time job so I can buy Far Cry 3 and other games I missed out last year.
TV: Really excited for TWD to resume. I saw a preview on AMC and it's looking really awesome. Other than that It's Always Sunny on Netflix as well as re-watching the old Pokemon episodes.
Book: I haven't had the time or peace and quiet to read anything other than manga unfortunately.
Game: Pokemon Emerald and GTA IV online with homies.
TV: Warehouse 13 Season 3, as it (finally) came to UK netflix. Now I just have to wait for Season 4 to arrive here (in about 2 years time....yay) Also, Game of Thrones S1 and TWD S2. Farscape is always getting a watch as well, though I need to bring myself to save up the cash for the blu-ray boxset
Book: A Song of Ice and Fire: A Clash of Kings. Trying to power my way through it, as I have the rest of the books there (up to A Feast for Crows in anycase, still need to get the latest 2) but it took me weeks to get through the first book so I might just take a whole day and read as much as I can of Clash
Game: Dragon Age 2, now at 800 odd hours and 17 playthroughs. Okay, yeah, I REALLY like the game. Even though I have a bunch of new releases I need to play. Also Crusader Kings 2. With that Game of Thrones Mod, I've happily played 50 hours or so, so far. Plan to sink a bunch more in this week.
TV: The Walking Dead (Game finally convinced me to give the show and comics a shot)
Book: A feast for Crows (It is so slow compared to previous entries and I left off for a while) but a bunch of comics I ordered online arrived yesterday so I'm also reading all the Death of the Family issues I got as well.
Game: Finishing up Assassins Creed 3 (Disliked it initially and Connor initially but have grown to love it definitely one of my favorite in the series) then moving on to Far Cry 3 or Dishonored both of which I'm an hour into or maybe Halo 4, it's sitting here too.
TV: Bob's Burgers; The Mindy Project; King of the Nerds; Shark Tank; Real Time with Bill Maher; and countless anime.
Book: Prince of Thorns; I need to start the Sword & Laser pick, Bridge of Birds; and my copy of The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Hystoria came in yesterday.
Game: Persona 4 Golden; Ni no Kuni; thinking of starting either The Cave or DmC tonight.
