[maniacthw]

I am HOOKED on Lost. Dexter is also a decent enough show. As for more reality based... I am a HUGE Gordon Ramsay fan... So, the BBC America Kitchen Nightmares Revisited series. Lost being my all time favorite.

[maniacthw]

Now, for an unprecedented category-- the top 10 shows I'd most likely enjoy if I'd ever sit down and watch them from the beginning up until the end/current... :tongue:

2. Lost
6. Dexter


Luckily for me, I have a girlfriend who works at Blockbuster... Lost is one show you HAVE to see EVERY episode of, IN ORDER, for it to make any sense. And, once you start, you can't stop. Unluckily enough for me, I caught up, now I have to watch it on TV and wait week by week. That sucks :(.

I personally think that mentioning top 20 is quite a tough job. If you will ask my my favourites than this will be only Friends. One of the finest TV serial ever made.

I personally think that mentioning top 20 is quite a tough job. If you will ask my my favourites than this will be only Friends. One of the finest TV serial ever made.

I still have never actually watched an entire episode of this. Little snippets here and there because it was on and I was in the room but never a whole episode.

[sneggz]

Dead Like Me
Married with Children
Pushing Daisies
Undeclared
Scrubs
Doctor Who
Futurama
Green Wing
Law and Order: SVU
Two and a Half Men

It's funny, I used to love Simpsons... but I just don't pay attention anymore. When I do actually sit down I still love it, but it seems it can't even crack my top ten like I think it should.

[whiteshark]

-Monty Python's Flying Circus.
-The Simpsons.
-T.M.N.T.: The 90s version.
-He-Man .The 80s cartoons.
-Seinfield.
-Lost.
-Benny Hill.
-Cheers.
-X-Files.
-Rome.

[passer-by]

I don't watch that many serials, so I'll go with just one in each category.

On air: Battlestar Galactica. Hope the final season will not be botched.

Off air: Firefly - a crying shame it was cancelled. Great lines and dialogues, great characters, great stories that made me both laugh and almost cry. Such potential gone down the drain. . .
