*Yeah, I chose 6 from this decade. If I was forced to drop one, I guess it'd be The 4400. I had to really think about including JEKYLL, which I thoroughly enjoyed and will begin hunting down Nesbitt's other works because of this one. But it was only 6 episodes, so hard to get a handle on whether it's really an all-time favorite as compared to some other ones. And Fringe is turning into one of my favorites, but it's still really early to tell. Heroes. Well, loved Season 1, liked Season 2, not thrilled with Season 3 so far. So, I honestly wasn't even tempted to list it here. Same with LOST.
