RECOMMENDATION SUNDAY: Special Edition

[valancy_s]

A few weeks ago I invited you all to pose the question to me: "If you could recommend only one _____, what would it be?" Six of you responded, and now you'll finally get your answers!

jcd1013 asked me to recommend one TV show she should get into (either on DVD or on Hulu).

If I were asked to recommend one TV show to the world at large, it would be

Aww, HIMYM. This season's been rather subpar, but the first four seasons are still pure awesome, as is the Vorkosigan saga.

I love a lot of DWJ's books, but Fire & Hemlock may not appeal to some people because of the potentially squicky age difference.

I agree about this season of HIMYM. I think the show wanders aimlessly when they don't have some romantic plot arc to tie the plot together (Ted and Robin, Lily and Marshall, Robin and Barney - doesn't really matter).

And I agree about Fire and Hemlock - the end did weird me out a bit. I'm hoping Stowmarkate won't mind though, since she married an older man herself.

Excellent post!

How ever, I am shocked - shocked! - that you didn't recommend Sports Night as your one comedy series.

Thanks... and you make a good point, but for whatever reason I was thinking current shows with that question.

Also, Sports Night - like almost everything I watch - is more of a "dramedy."

Dramedy, true

Now it's your turn to make a good point.

Absolutely LOVED veronica mars. I totally agree that everyone should watch that show. I was so sad that they pulled the plug on it... but yet we still have shows like, "2 and a half men". Go figure ~

HIMYM is one of my current favorite shows. It's...wait for it, legendary :)
