Drive Thru History, Fact or Fiction: Beyond Belief, Whose Line is it Anyway?

Damnit, I forgot Reno 911 too. And Two and a Half Men. There was another show that used to be on right after it that I loved, but for the life of me I can't remember it.

Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is probably my fav.
I still watch that too. The old ones are much better than anything on tv these days.

No Contest: Fawlty Towers

 

With Sienfeld a close (but not too close) second.

 

They re-ran Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" recently, and I really liked seeing that again.

 

What I'm watching nowadays:

 

Daily Show

Colbert Report

Simpsons

Family Guy

Austin City Limits (when I can find it on! :rolleyes: )

The News Hour w/ Jim Lehrer

The Venture Brothers

ATHF

The McLaughlin Group

Now

Washington Week in Review

Frontline

Nova

Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex (I've never really liked anime... but this one sucked me in.)

I really enjoy Cosmos, we watched it in school last year and I found it very interesting.

 

Has anyone else seen the mini series Horatio Hornblower? That was one of my favorites shows of all time.

They were great, I plan on reading the books this summer when I'm not overwhelmed by AP Euro O_o

 

I love movies and books that take place at sea... especially during the Enlightenment and Age of Revolution.

The jazz artist or something entirely different?

Mahavishnu?

 

Well, he's good too... but not exactly what I had in mind:

Political roundtable discussions... that usually degenerate into ugly shouting matches. Highly entertaining! :)

Normally found on PBS stations.

Probably Buffy. It came along at the right time, and was very fresh and clever in the way it was written. Faded a bit at the end though.

Season 3 of Angel was some damn fine TV as well.

 

Firefly rocked.

 

Farscape though is probably the best space/scifi tv series ever. Just too darn celver and original for its own good.

 

West Wing is probably the best written TV series ever, and I'd probably have loved it even more than Buffy if the stupid tv stations hadn't messed arounf with its scheduling so much that i lost track of it after 3 or 4 seasons and kept missing episodes.

 

The new series of Dr Who has a lot of charm about it.

 

Battlestar galactica is nearly great.

Babylon 5 was great until the tv execs messed up the last 2 series for everyone.

 

24 rocks. Its getting very cliched now... but i still can't help loving it. Chloe rules.

 

Liked the first series of Veronica Mars... almost had a buffy vibe. Hated the rushed series finale though and so never finished it.

 

(Batman the animated series. Invader Zim. Clone Wars. Love Hina. Chobits. Avengers (diana rigg era). Spooks (UK). Teachers (Uk, first 2 series). This Life (UK). Simpson. Family Guy. The A Team. Birds of Prey (canned). Vengence Unlimited (Canned) )

 

LOST I have to say sucks. I'm completely confused by its success. the first few episodes looked like they had great potential... buts its just going nowhere. Slowly.

I usually have a much better attention span than average viewers.. so i'm amazed this is doing so well in the USA when attention spans there are supposed to be lower than here.

 

Finally. There was a BBC mini-series one xmas in the 80s called The Box of Delights. that was one of the best few hours of TV ever. Probably too dated SFX wise for those that didn't see it as kids... but i have the DVD and still love it.
