I still plan on checking that one out at some point...I feel like it's something I would dig based on everything I've heard about it


Started watching on Netflix about 2 months ago. A couple of episodes into season 3, it reminds me a lot of Lost. I like it

The OC getting more love than I thought it would. My gf at the time made me watch it with her, but after we broke up, I watched it through the end. First 2 seasons were good stuff. I just can't support the last 2 seasons. Felt like a CW show towards the end.


I thought the 4th season was a strong comeback once they stopped the cage fighting nonsense. Season 3 was just an abomination.

I also liked the first season or two of Gossip Girl. Josh Schwartz knows how to push my TV buttons

Season 3 was the worst, but season 4 had that out of body experience Christmas episode with Taylor and Ryan falling off the ladder.

That's right. lol

Forgot about that. I was a big Taylor Townsend fan, but that shite was pretty dumb. I also can't forgive them for what they did to Summer. Boozy, party girl to lame hippy.

god this is tough. im 21.

jeopardy - i love trivia. this show is timeless. only show that i series record.

arrested development - it's just awesome. quote it all the time. it's a part of me.

scrubs - same. absolutely love this shite. big time in my friends circle too.

boy meets world - brings back every thing that is right in the world for me. the number of times i have actually thought of BMW when people have talked about what is going on in their life is absurd.

SBTB - it just feels right for me. seen the entire run 3 times and it's just enjoyable. i love screech. i really do.

chappelle's show - THE most quoted show in my group of friends and probably in our entire age group. you drop a chappelle's line at any time and anywhere and people will join in. it's beautiful.

Fresh Prince - just a wonderful show in all facets. guaranteed to make me laugh.

close calls: laguna beach, friends, blue mountain state, friday night lights, Law and Order SVU, RW/RR challenges, probably some others. i dont really watch hour long dramas. dunno why.

In no particular order, as that would be too difficult for me. I'll be 35 in September.

Breaking Bad
The Simpsons
South Park
Seinfeld
Arrested Development
The X-Files
Law and Order: SVU

Honorable mentions:
The Wonder Years
Cheers
The Cosby Show
Roseanne
Futurama
Buffy

ETA: I'm going on break. Maybe I'll tell you why I like these shows later. However, any that you're not familiar with, you can go watch, and you'll quickly see why it/they are the best television in the last 25 years.

In no order:

Star Trek
What's My Line
Lost
Twilight Zone
Cheers
Arrow
The Tonight show
Carol Burnett Show

LINK

Shows that out lived their run:
Magnum P.I.

The Beverly Hillbillies (Ella May was broken hearted most of the last 3-4 seasons and it was telling).

Hawaii 5-0

Heroes (season one was great, then when down hill from there.)

Gunsmoke (should have been canceled in the late 60's)

Bonanza (when Roberts left, the show lost a lot, but after Dan passed away; there was no show.)

How I met your mother...really just go ahead
and cancel it, the last 3 season have been a sleep walk.

A show some will not remember:
I Love Lucy (if it was for seeing near everyone of these shows a dozen times it reruns it would still be worth watching) The show with Harpo is some of the best tv ever.
