I'm going Firefly. They could just continue to explore other worlds.

I will give honorable mention to Futurama.

So even if it has ended, we'd forget that and continue getting episodes as if it was in its prime for forever?

Would be between South Park, Breaking Bad, or Top Gear for me

Breaking Bad/Walking Dead crossover. So many stories to be told.

I agree with your selection of South Park. There is no storyline to maintain from episode to episode. There is always something going on in the world to parody. The show simply doesn't get old.

Curb Your Enthusiasm would be a close second.

Yes. Actors never age, either. It's basically just one show in it's prime for as long as you live.

Good question there.... I really don't know

If I could get three shows, Breaking Bad, South Park, and Top Gear are my 3

It would have to be something like Seinfeld where they could keep up with the times. Lost would eventually run out of stuff to write.

I say Seinfeld.

This is interesting.

Since it could be ongoing + reruns, I think South Park is my obvious answer. No worries about actors outgrowing their characters along with the added benefit of political/social commentary for the rest of the show, which South Park is great at.

My 2nd choice is difficult. I'm a huge Park and Rec fan, so seeing Leslie Knope become POTUS one day would be intriguing. And I love watching re-runs of PnR, so that's good with me.

Firefly never got to do it's thing, so I would love to see it explored. I'm a sci-fi fan, so BSG and TNG could also be in the mix.

Good topic IMO.

Doctor Who. A guaranteed new direction every few years with constantly changing characters.

Plus, a shite ton of already aired material to play with.
