One of the few shows that I watch religiously is Supernatural (pun intended for any of you who got it). The initial commercials portrayed the show as a dark horror, and while it is, it also manages some really good comedy. When it needs to be 'horror,' the lighting goes down, the music mimics the mood, and even then there are random comments that make you laugh, and right after that some demon eviscerates an innocent person. One episode was even done documentary-style, kind of a Ghosthunters thing, and it was pulled off very well.
Another thing I like about the show is that they do their homework. I have the rather obscure hobby of liking to learn about diabology and demonolgy, and so know when there making stuff up and when they actually have some literary basis for doing what their doing, which I really like.
