You have pretty eclectic tastes. I feel I can recommend anything. I haven't seen most of the stuff on your list. I'm adding your list to my To Do list. But I lost interest in "Person of Interest" in just a couple of episodes. I stopped watching The Walking Dead during the second season because i thought it was going to slowly. I only watched one episode of the Following, it was too gruesome. I really like Arrow.
I fell in love with The Good Wife this year and went and watched all 4 seasons. Give it a shot. I didn't think I'd like it either but it has great characters- both heroes and villains. Rich stories and back stories and handsome and beautiful actors and actresses. Drama, comedy, suspense, mystery, romance.... I really can't recommend it highly enough.
If you liked Downton Abbey you gotta check out "Call the Midwife". I like it a little better because it has no villains, life itself provides all the adversity necessary. There is also a new Masterpiece Theatre called "Bletchly Circle" which is great, too. (these are British but post WWII)
If you have read Ken Follett, two of his books were made into mini series. World Without End and Pillars of the Earth. I think they can only be recommended if you loved the books because all by themselves I don't think they are that great. End of the dark ages in England.
I'm almost through the first season of Californication and the second season of House of lies. Both of those are short, 30 minute, sexy little serialized dramas. I've watched a few seasons of Dexter but I'm taking a break. I've watched one season of the Wire, and one season of Modern Family - I plan on getting back to them. Then i want to start Boardwalk Empire.
Some of these are available online at CouchTuner.
