I've got a 10 hour plane ride next week, and I'll be hanging round at the airport a lot. Any recommendations for an engaging but not too taxing drama?

Please nothing cliché or tacky eg suits, CSI etc

Xena could be really good for this if you're into action-flavored drama. It's got fun fights, can be cheesy in the best way, and has really great relationships that feel lived-in, especially as the show goes on. Some episodes are real tear-jerkers and others are super lighthearted.
