I loved The Shield, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Rome. I'm also a huge NCIS fan.

For me, my favorite is without a doubt "The League of Gentlemen".  Granted, technically the first season started in 1999, but the majority of it was in the early 2000's.

Other favorites:
The Office (both versions)
Look Around You (Thanks ants.  Thants.)
Breaking Bad (still going strong)
The Walking Dead (go AMC!)
South Park (probably as good as it ever has been)
Curb Your Enthusiasm
Six Feet Under
Carnivale
Psychoville
Green Wing
Peep Show

and something that I can't get enough of:  all of the BAD auditioners from most of the reality competition shows (American Idol, America's Got Talent, Last Comic Standing, Dance-type shows, etc...).  I only watch the early audition rounds for the bad ones, and once the good performers take over, I switch off!

Man Vs. Food- I know, I know, it's stupid, but at least it's interesting.
Monster Jam on SPEED- one of the two good shows on SPEED
Pass Time- the other good show on SPEED, it's also interesting to see the cars on there
Mythbusters- no explanation needed
Dirty Jobs- same as Mythbusters

Probably the best show for me to come out of that decade was Psych, a funny comedy and crime show on USA.  Strange, why are all the creative and better writers working for that channel?

Gilmore Girls is a brilliantly done show.  The final season could've ended better but I read there's talks of a reunion tv-movie.  So if it happens, it should end it well.

"The Wire" - all round best TV show I've seen in the last decade. Excellent.

"Deadliest Warrior" - Probably my most favourite programme that anyone ever thought would be a good idea. It's so damned ridiculous. But still great.

"Sons of Anarchy" - Made me want to be a biker.

"The Morgana Show" - Hilarious.

That and loadsa documentaries and that.
