Author Topic: What are your all time favorite TV Shows? Chad M Calpito Master Film Handler Posts: 435 From: San Diego, CA Registered: Apr 2006 posted 07-02-2007 11:19 PM                        I was just thinking about some of my all time favorite TV Shows, including Mini-Series and was wondering what all of you liked or still like, etc. Well, I shall start it off: 1) V: The Original Mini-Series, V: The Final Battle and V: The TV Series (I included this because it is all based on the same story line) - These are my all time, ultimate favorite which I have all of them on DVD; 2) Knight Rider 3) Star Trek: The Next Generation 4) Fraggle Rock (what can I say? I just loved it.) As you may have noticed, I love the '80's stuff, but a few others I like from recent times: 5) Law & Order: SVU 6) Star Trek: Voyager & Star Trek: Enterprise 7) South Park 8) Beavis & Butt-Head  |  IP: Logged Allison Parsons Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 630 From: East Peoria, IL Registered: Oct 2004 posted 07-03-2007 12:14 AM                        1) TWIN PEAKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2)Adventures of Pete and Pete 3)The Young Ones/Mr Bean 4)Ren and Stimpy 5)Home Movies 6)Pee Wee's Play House 7)Sifl and Olly 8)Sealab 2021/Aqua Teen Hunger Force 9)Twin Peaks 10 on up)Twin Peaks I've been highly enjoying the Soprano's reruns on A&E since I don't have HBO (nor have I seen any of the DVD's). I love watching Intervention on A&E as well, but it's too depressing to be in my top 10. I also watch WAY too much news on the 3 major news channels. On a side note, anyone remember the UK kids program from the early 80's called The Third Eye??  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 07-03-2007 12:54 AM                     In no particular order, though Married with Children is my all time favorite MArried with Children The Simpsons Deadwood Magnum PI Miami Vice Nip Tuck Seinfeld  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-03-2007 01:21 AM                        Among current shows, I don't watch much, but my favorite is the Late Show with David Letterman. For the more serious side, I probably like 60 Minutes the best. Older shows - It's tough to pick a single favorite because it sorta depends on what mood I'm in, but my top favorites are probably: Green Acres All in the Family WKRP in Cincinnati The Andy Griffith Show Mary Tyler Moore Seinfeld The Larry Sanders Show (recently discovered on DVD) You'll note that I have the '60s, '70s, '80s and '90s represented there. I guess that's something to be proud of, maybe?  |  IP: Logged Damien Taylor Master Film Handler Posts: 493 From: Perth, Western Australia Registered: Apr 2007 posted 07-03-2007 03:19 AM                     WKRP Daria MST3K Robot Chicken Seinfeld Doctor Who (Mainly 1963-1967) Hartnell was god's gift to acting. Hitchhikers Guide Arrested Development Curb... Firefly M*A*S*H Thunderbirds Some Aussie ones: John Safran's Music Jamboree Hey Hey It's Saturday (it was a bizarre uniquely Australian variety show.) I could really go on forever, theres just so much great stuff out there...  |  IP: Logged Claude S.

Personally, the best season was #1 and last year's. All of the other were very good. Except for "24" and many concert and opera telecasts on PBS, I watch very little regular television shows. Most of my time is spent watching DVDs of movies I skipped when they played in a theatre. -Claude  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-03-2007 08:05 AM                     There's nothing on network worth watching at all except for re-runs of Seinfeld! On cable theres alot on the History Channel and PBS still seems to muster up an interesting documentary every now and then. Discovery just has those so-called Chopper-biker guys which are nothing but a bunch of panzys! Discovery Channel has literally gone down the tubes in the last two years, It should be re-named the "Panzy Biker Channel". There is also Animal Planet which has good stuff now and then. I love seeing folks get pounded by a judge for animal abuse on "Animal Cops". Other than that there is nothing I can think of worth wasting time to watch. One thing irritating about cable is the way they go to a commercial and then come back and review what you just watched for a minute or so before continuing the show... as though you'd completely forgotten what the show was even about. STUPID! In fact they re-run the show so many times during the week that if you missed it or forgot something you could go back and watch it again! Otherwise I pretty much just watch what I want off DVD...

History International has some interesting shows now and then as does History and National Geographic. Downside are the inane commercials. Someone should use the hook on Billy Mays.  |  IP: Logged Darryl Spicer Film God Posts: 3250 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: Dec 2000 posted 07-03-2007 08:58 AM                    Star Trek original series Adam 12 Emergency!

I forgot about CSI.... that's one of my favorites now, the Vegas one and sometimes the Miami one, I haven't gotten into the NY one though.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-03-2007 11:19 AM                        I thought Deal or No Deal was fun for a couple of episodes, but I got tired of it fast. Too drawn out. Those producers need to watch some old "Let's Make a Deal" episodes with Monty Hall and find out how to pace a show.  |  IP: Logged Clint Koch Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1435 From: San Luis Obispo, CA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 07-03-2007 11:29 AM                     soap  |  IP: Logged Chad M Calpito Master Film Handler Posts: 435 From: San Diego, CA Registered: Apr 2006 posted 07-03-2007 11:34 AM                        I also forgot to add the following: Sliders (though, some episodes were a little boring) & Sanford And Son (a great 70's TV Show).  |  IP: Logged Mike Heenan Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1896 From: Scottsdale, AZ, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 07-03-2007 12:09 PM                     Mike I totally agree... used to be into that show quite a bit, but some of the contestants were so annoying I would turn it off after 5 minutes.  |  IP: Logged
