My all-time favorite TV shows

[dangermousie]

In order, here is my Top 6 show list:

1. Farscape: Best Show Ever. I am not kidding either. Wonderful, angsty, clever characters, OTP to end all OTPs, complicated twisted plots, and really tight plotting and writing. Not to mention all the arcs get resolved. Perfection. I cried, I laughed, I screamed, I participated in the fan campaign.

Also, regarding One Tree Hill, I actually know people that seriously watch that show. Gosh, I love being a target audience.

Now, that is scary!

May I ask who the character are that you don't like on House? I'm fairly new to House and I was wondering who the unpopular characters were :D

My favorites:

The X-Files- Old favorites live long in my heart, and even though the show lasted too long (the 6th & 7th season were unfortunate), this show owned my soul in high school. Scully and Mulder are the ultimate intelligent OTP. I have no clue why Carter decided the show should continue after Duchovney left, since he MADE that show.

Alias- Even though the third season sucked, I still enjoy this show in all it's bizarre and unrealistic glory. The whole dynamic has changed now that Vartan has left the show though.

Supernatural- I haven't had a show that makes me look forward to a day in the week so much in a long time. LOVE this show with it's humor, horror, and hot guys. It's like what would happen if The X-Files and Buffy had a love child.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer- Yes, I hated the majority of seasons 4-7, but there were moments this show was just brilliant. Season 2 has got to be my favorite bit of television ever. Evil Angel, evil Spike, crazy Dru and the best of snarky Buffy.

Battlestar Galactic- Yes, I love

I must confess I nver watched more than an ep of X-files because I was so squeamish :)

Season 2 has got to be my favorite bit of television ever

Oh YES.

[lpmufinfiend]

Yes, X-files was my first blissful taste of science fiction. The truth is so out there.

I'm joining in on the fun! For the sake of simplicity I'm excluding all the anime shows I love, which would be a list unto itself.

1. X-Files: My very first TV obsession, back when I was only 13 years old. I lived and died for that show. I couldn't breathe without it. I was a stalwart NoRomo, afraid that MSR would destroy the show like Lois and Clark. It was the fandom that first led me to fic and pr0n. So many sweet memories. I can't believe I don't have a single season on DVD yet.

2. Lost: What can I say? I'm in love with the complete WTF factor of this show. I prefer the lush creepiness of this to JJ's other creation, Alias. The multitude of hot characters doesn't hurt either.

3. House: I started watching this out of casual curiosity. Best casual curiosity ever. The snark, the insanity, the angsty relationship possibilities. It's all good. It's all VERY good. If I ended up being a doctor, I'd want a piece of that action :)

4. CSI (Vegas): My friends in undergrad were crazy about this show, and crazy about Nick and Sara in

[dangermousie]

Futurama is one of those "I can watch each episode 70 times" things. *loves*

[plazmah]

Exactly! wasabi_girl1 has every single season on DVD and I can't get enough of it every time I come home to visit. She's getting annoyed ;)

Bender icon! You rock so hard! (TM Fireball)

[grace_om]

Not necessarily in order:

1. BSG
2. Firefly
3. ST DS9
4. Deadwood - (and I've only seen season 1 because we don't get HBO)
5. Buffy/Angel
6. Over There - I'm currently obsessing over this, but it's really a guilty pleasure rather than something I picture fanning for life.

I probably would have liked Farscape, but never got to see it as we only started getting SciFi channel recently. I used to like Babylon 5 as well, but missed a lot of it as we were living in England when it was on.

There's other shows I usually make a point to watch, like CSI and Lost, and I like L & O Criminal Intent, Nip Tuck for pure outrageousness...but I'm not a crazed fan over any of them. House I'll watch if it's on and I feel like watching TV, I just find the plots a bit contrived, though I do like Hugh Laurie.

And I'm sure I've forgotten some big favorite and I'll feel stupid as soon as I post!

[dangermousie]

You know, I've heard such good things about Deadwood, but I've never seen it. Is it really gruesome?

Deadwood

[grace_om]

Gruesome? Hmmm. It's blunt in all regards: language, nudity, violence. After all Deadwood was a town with "no law at all." So I guess at times, yes. But the body count does slow down after the first few episodes... LOL!

And yet, for all the profanity, the language is downright Shakespearean in its poetic density of meaning. (which I hope makes sense).

Really, it's worth giving a try.

[anonymous]

I'll try my luck with this one. Number one is set, the others are random.

1) Veronica Mars
2) The Simpsons
3) In Living Color
4) Smallville
5) Battlestar Galatica
6) Numb3rs
7) Viva La Bam
HM) Titus
HM) The Joe Schmo Show

I should note that I just started watching the Buffy reruns on FX when they started from the beginning.
