I'm just curious to see what people think of tv shows in general

1) Family Guy [ i know almost everyone likes this show]
2) Entourage
3) Courage The Cowardly Dog
4) Weeds
5) Law & Order: SVU
6) Scrubs
7) ER

I am sure there are other topics in here based on the same theme, but thats ok... here are some of my faves... in no particular order.

Picket Fences
Greys Anatomy
Roswell
Ally McBeal (some of the seasons anyway)
House
Chicago Hope


In regards to the ones you mentioned...
1) Family Guy [ i know almost everyone likes this show] - never really watched it, and never really liked what i did see
2) Entourage - never heard of it
3) Courage The Cowardly Dog - never heard of it
4) Weeds - only watched a couple of episodes... didn't really like it
5) Law & Order: SVU - yeah i like this show
6) Scrubs - never liked it when it first came out, but have watched a few reruns on tv recently and i don't mind it
7) ER - only watched this occasionally, but do like what i have seen.

IMO I ,like
Supernatural
Battlestar Gallactica new ones not old
ROME
Heroes is very good right now

Best TV show ever is a tough one. I have to say that the first season of Lost was probably one of the best first seasons I have ever seen. The reason I say first season is because the 2nd and 3rd while still very entertaining is simply nowhere near the quality and nowhere near the level of mystery and suspense that the first season had. Well ill try and make a small quick list of what I feel was the best.

FIrst Season of Lost
Entire run of Deadwood
Original Twilight Zone w/ Rod Serling
The X-Files (First 7 Seasons)
Miami Vice
The Simpsons

and my last one is a real guilty pleasure......Eureka on Sci-Fi. Just love this show!!

Anyways that is my list and I think you have to be my age, around 35-40, to really appreciate alot of what I put down for instance if you werent around to actually see Miami Vice when it first aired you have no idea how huge of an impact that series had on televsion and incidentally on the people that watched it. Miami Vice really set the stage for the kind of television shows we have today. And who can forget how powerful the Twilight Zone was growing up. I loved that show and even have the entire series on DVD that I watch from time to time. The others I think are self explainatory with X-Files, Simpsons, an even Deadwood, the best western series ever made IMO. Simpsons is the longest running show on TV and X-Files was just another cutting edge show. Like I said tho I dont think any of those can compete with what Lost brought to thetable in its first season. I was utterly blown away by season 1 of Lost unlike I had ever been by a TV show before.Again that is just speaking for season 1 and not for 2 and 3 as the last 2 seasons of Lost are certainly nowhere close to being on a best of all time list.

1. the simpsons
2. family guy
3. scurbs
4. lost was ok in the first two seasons

Seinfeld

mini series shouldnt count as they were not tv shows ,also most of what is mentioned is from the last 10 years,good to see married with children up there,however the greatest tv cop show has and always will be hill street blues. the best hospital show,St. Elsewhere. and how could you go wrong with fantasy island .am I showing my age yet?

TV isn't any more what it used to be in the 90's, *sigh*

I think the best show ever is Twin Peaks
It was like nothing that had been done before, the plot was original and fascinating, the characters and the world were real in spite of their weirdness

Babylon 5
Space opera with interesting and well held-together characters, a solid plot and the *drama*

X-Files [seasons 1-4]
In the beginning it was new and fresh and the mystery worked, but then they gave to much away and didn't know to stop when they were still winning. Although the tension between Mulder and Scully worked all the way until the end, something that other series have tried to copy, but so far none have succeeded.

Farscape
The characters, the world, the keen sense of the discusting state of humankind, yay =]

OZ
This is so f**king real it hurts. Although personally what I love about this, is Beecher's and Keller's love story.

Buffy/Angel
Have their moments, the dialogue at it's best is uniquely hilarious and besides, Spike is like the greatest character ever :P

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Supernatural:
Yeah..
[LJ icon by lostmemento]

And my guilty pleasure is The Tribe XD I watch it for the clothes..

What I really don't understand, is Lost. I tried, but it is so _boring_! They try to be all mysterious and what-a-not, but it just seems forced.

I like the old school stuff -
Combat! (Here's a real aXXo challenge!)
The Gallant Men
Mission Impossible
The Saint
Get Smart!

1. Stargate atlantis / SG-1
2. Heroes
3. South Park

Not much, but i only watch the best of the best :P

For me its Buffy. I cannot fault the show, many others can but I can't.
South Park: That show never ceases to make me say "Can they really do this!?"
Bones: Such a good show, edge of your seat stuff for me

South Park (Dont believe me? have a look at "La Petite tourette" )
Simpsons (Old love and all )
Family Guy (Lost my love with the double-work american-dad piece o shit, but there are laughts, so I watch it with music on)
THE WIRE (First one to mention this masterpiece? Did you like Sopranos? The Wire is better!!!!)
Battlestar Gallactica
Trailer Park Boys ( Forget the movie, it like Jay'n'silentbob. *Spinoffshit)
Eureka


More to come :)
