I think this would be a great starting point for new posters.

If we are talking in terms of new posters, A League of Their Own is essential for this board

The Wire too, but for different reasons. That should be required viewing as a college freshman.

Nope.

I've certainly seen clips and parts of it. But, I've never sat and watched it.


I'll take your advice

I had the same thought a few months ago. It's OK, but way over-hyped on this board in my opinion. Great first season that they never came close to matching.

Okay. NOW I'm confused. Is this essential list one that I can rely upon, or not.

Perhaps, The Godfather is a dud, too.

ETA..the MOVIE...not the Poster
