A crime drama mixed with healthy doses of the surreal, this series is about FBI Agent Dale Cooper, who travels to the small logging town of Twin Peaks to solve the murder of seemingly innocent high schooler Laura Palmer. Almost nothing is as it seems, however, and the show's sometimes eerie visuals, oddball characters and wild dream sequences drive the point home.

9. Perception
Dr. Daniel Pierce is a brilliant, eccentric neuroscience professor with a deep knowledge of human behavior and of the way the brain processes information. He's also a paranoid schizophrenic who struggles with hallucinations. But Daniel considers his condition a gift, the way the hallucinations sometimes allow him to see patterns and make connections that his mind has otherwise not yet formed. With that gift, Daniel helps his former student, FBI agent Kate Moretti, as a consultant on certain cases. He's happiest when given an intricate puzzle to solve or a message to decode, and for that Kate is more than willing to look past his disease. Helping keep Daniel on task is his teaching assistant and roommate, Max Lewicki, who provides for Daniel's domestic demands, and Natalie Vincent, Daniel's best friend, one-time romantic partner and definite intellectual equal.

Dr. Temperance Brennan, a forensic anthropologist who works at the Jeffersonian Institution and also writes books, has an impressive ability to read clues from victims' bones.

Brennan often finds herself teamed with Special Agent Seeley Booth, a former Army sniper, who mistrusts science and scientists when it comes to solving crimes but who has developed respect for Brennan, both professionally and personally.
