I will say I was pleasantly surprised by Falling Skies. It wasn't paradigm shifting, but it ended up being a lot better than I anticipated.
The Good Wife is another I didn't expect to be very good and it turned out to be borderline excellent.
Surprisingly enough, Robin Hood on BBC was pretty damned campy at times, but did a good enough job, I wanted to see how it ended. That and it threw enough haymakers in there it just kept me hooked.
Arrow is better than I anticipated. Save the Nolan trilogy, it's better than anything DC has put out in a decade or so.
