You know, I never considered this. I always saw it as a cheap and superficial attempt to be Star wars. But "for its time" is appropriate. We had nothing like it in the late 70s. I see the wisdom of appreciating it on that level. It willl never be a favorite, but it DOES have the merit of being the first.

 

I watch:

 

Futurama -- it has its moments

The Simpsons -- still the best satire of American values

Malcolm in the Middle -- Always unpredictable

Undeclared -- A strong "up and comer"

South Park -- Charming Political Incorrectness

Enterprise -- Because I am (after all these years) a Trekkie

 

re-runs:

Babylon 5 -- for the same reasons you mentioned (and better than any Trek series)

Seinfeld -- always examined what TV has ignored i.e. masturbation, body odor, pointless revenge, etc.

Monty Python and Black Adder --my favorite BBC productions

...and almost anything on The Discovery Channel in between these

whew, you'd think I have no life at all

"Friends" are my favorite. I even got 72 episodes on DVD and buying more when I can afford it :)

 

The rest is in no particular order.

 

Ally McBeal

ER

Seinfeld

Drew Carrey

The Simpsons

X-Files (Until David Duchovny left.)

Frasier

Charmed

The Practice

Family Guy

Will & Grace

 

I watch a lot of series :)

Why does everyone like Friends? The jokes are lame and the plots keep repeating themselves forever! :( (Like, that whole Ross & Rachel thing...)

Damn, not one person said NYPD blue.

 

That is a great show, try not to miss it. Tuesdays at 9pm..

Also I like Law & Order(and most of the take offs) and that might be it.

 

I think most of the new series are stupid or just plain lame, Fraiser is good though.

 

I also like ESPN sports center. Rich Isen(sp), Kenny Mayne amd Stuart Scott are hillarious.

 

You can tell I'm over 30 huh? ;)

No one mentioned Ren & Stimpy yet. Sure, it may seem a bit childish now that I'm over 14, but it definitely has its charm.

:ewok: <== Closest thing to Stimpy I could find in the smileys.

Ah, Ren and Stimpy. Brings back so many memories.

 

All-time favorite cartoons that are no longer in existence:

 

Ren and Stimpy

Rocko's Modern Life

Cartoon Planet (Space Ghost, Zorak, Brak, singing. Nuff said)

Beavis and Butthead

TMNT

X-men

 

Nostalgia fest at the mojo boards!

I don't really see the big deal about Seinfeld. I'm sorry, and I'm going to get flamed, but that's just my opinion. Anywho...

 

Frasier (who doesn't love it?)

Spaced

The Clangers :D

Becker

Corrie

Clerks: the animated series was absolutely awesome, but hardly anyone has ever heard of it because those fatcats at ABC canceled it after 2 episodes

Ah yes...I have all KS films and, of course, Clerks: Animated on DVD...Brilliant stuff. I didn't mention it because it doesn't really play on TV anymore. 6 episodes made and only 2 aired... a travesty.

 

I'm glad someone mentioned it...that show deserves mention.

Raven! I owe you one. Now I remember what I wanted for Christmas! I need to get my hands on the Clerks series on DVD. I've seen, but don't own, all of the View Askew movies. Great stuff.
